Sno Mountain lawyers seek end to delays BY ROGER DUPUIS II STAFF WRITER 09/14/2006 Prolonged delays to the sale of Montage Mountain Ski Area could result in even more lawsuits, lawyers for would-be buyers Sno Mountain LLP warned Wednesday.

Okay, when someone asks a bunch of NS kids to call your home and make threats, then we'll see if you think it's no big deal. Do you really feel it has to be locked IMMEDIATELY? Is your head about to blow up, or something?

Why would you know that? The only reason to be able to reel that tidbit off would be because you'd tried. And since you are a straightforward, beyond reproach, honest sort of guy, HOW MANY FAKE ACCOUNTS AND USERNAMES HAVE YOU USED ON THIS SITE ALONE----INCLUDING THE TIME WHEN WE WERE BANNED? And back then, you didn't know IP addies were visible. But, nah, you'd never stoop to anything at NS. No way, right? You can't admit you threatened to call the county, even with absolute PROOF. Or did a mod change your words? It would go a long way to simply own up to what you did to my family. But instead, you just come to the Montage forum trying to stoke the fire with constant barbs. Of course nothing you post has any consequence to what happens with the mountain. No anonymous phone call from some dope near Philly means anything. But I respond to your posts because I really want people to understand that everything you post about Montage is tainted with your obsession to insite, not with any particular professional knowledge.

As Mark would say, "Whiping off my buck knife." I had an entire round brick of it melt into my car's interior carpet....major coconut rush every time I first opened the door on warm days.

1. The mods came to your defense, saying it happened off site and so they didn't want to punish you. 2. Oh, so you did it, but it was my fault for provoking you you into threatening to call. 3. I've wasted enough time on you. 'Dude's fed up and I'll try my best to finally respect his wishes.

Kids sent them to a PASR mod a long time ago, complete with full headers. Deny it all you want. It came from YOUR computer. And, Papasteeze Jul 19 2006, 09:41 PM Post #329 "nevermind.......... i have my answer...... so back on topic.... does any one have the number of the Lackawanna Conservation District. I want to do my civic duty... "

I have a THOUSAND bucks that says you threatened to call the county and cause problems...just go back over your own posts. That's the crappy thing about being a liar, Rob: it's hard to remember what you said. You didn't send my phone number with instructions to harass me to kids on NS? Well, then who at your IP address did? Huh? Yeah, well, why apologize when you can just deny, right?

Do you spend much of your company time fantasizing about buying up county parks and turning them into condos? Sh*t, just think of how much the state could get for Big Pocono SP, if only they'd sell to a developer! Man, the VIEWS!!!! Is it sinking in, yet, Rob?

Hey, Rob: there's three separate properties in the region, each over 300 acres with similar proximity to interstate highways, going for under a million dollars. None require enormous demolition, or have steep slopes. All are former hunting/fishing clubs and have anxious sellers. Now, read that last three sentences again. D-o y-o-u g-e-t i-t? You have openly trashed the deal and even admitted that the only purpose was to to be inflammatory. So, BOO HOO, you poor little victim of me. You threatened to call and join the fight against the sale. Why was that, Rob? You don't live here or ski here, so your only interest is to be a #@*&. Congratulations! You succeeded.

Oops, yeah, it seemed like I was being nasty, but I was stating a fact from something I read... That was your 7000th post. It was cool how you worked your D### into it....no pun intended.

There are two large hotels just at the exit off Rt. 81. Compared to CB, Shawnee, Blue, Elk, or any other Pocono ski area, Montage offers Downtown Philly nightlife... There are several colleges in Scranton, so the clubs like Tinks and Flashbacks are busy year 'round. Is there another ski area in the Poconos with real dance clubs 10 minutes away? And there are about a thousand bars, since there are so many alcoholics up here. If you want movies, there's a CinemaPlex, or whatever you call it, at the base of the mountain, along with a couple of places like Fridays. So, Rob, you go clubbing after skiing at CB and find the nightlife Montage dead?

You're playing stupid or just trying to get a rise... The Lackawanna County commissioners are dedicated to continue the ski area "for the enjoyment and quality of life for the people of Lackawanna County, not just for this, but for future generations". Who really knows, Rob, maybe some guy who you pissed off during a bad business deal firebombs your house tonight while you're sleeping. As much as nobody wants that, could it possibly happen?

Just waiting for the judge...everything's lined up and waiting for delivery. The fact that hotel and restaurant owners are pissed is a good thing---let them sound off with what hardship Washo is causing the business owners of Lackawanna. He's full of shit for saying he's protecting the community. What would the new ad for selling Montage read, if Washo gets his way? "Ski Area For Sale: Appraised at $4.3, this terrific ski area has lost a million dollars a year for the last few seasons and needs serious upgrades amounting to over $2 million. New owners must guarantee to stay open for at least 10 years and may not timber any property or subdivide any of the acreage." Okay, so what if some company reads that ad and offers $5.1 million, plus a guarantee of investing another $20 million for a property worth $4.3? The people of Lackawanna would be pretty f*cking lucky. I'd love to hear the Times-Tribune editorial staff print the facts and then argue to kill the deal. Idiots.

1161, you hoser.

Report: Forget timbering BY ROGER DUPUIS II STAFF WRITER 09/13/2006 Timber on the property of Montage Mountain Ski Area is of negligible commercial value, according to a brief consultant

If it's the type you want, ask him what kind of discount he'll offer: http://racewax.com/buytunevise.html

The US Snowboard Team and the US Ski Team have the same dynamics...they train as a team, eat as a team, hang out as a team, travel together, and go through all the things that other team sport players go through...but then they try to beat each other on weekends. Even swimmers and track athletes have relay teams, so skiing/snowboarding is pretty unique. And rarely is a ski racer successful when training as an individual, like Kristina Koznick...although Ivica and Jannica Kostelich have a lot of WC and Olympic gold training as a brother/sister team. Training as a team is almost always better, even in individual sports.

I never race without your stuff and I'm a picky m*therf*cker! (Feel free to use that as an endorsement ) Congrats, Dr. D! Your waxes are truly fantastic.

You know we're fortunate enough to have the #1 wax guru on the planet as a PASR member, so everyone is going to be leaving the overpriced world of Toko and Swix for Dr. D's version. Sometime this fall, we'll get Dr. D to give his custom recommendations for what we all ski/board. I race tested his waxes and will never go back to my old Swix mixtures....

If they were hotwaxed and not skied on, then the rub on would just go to waste. Check your edges, though, and see if there's wax on the metal. A little rub on wax coating your edges will reduce any chance of oxidation.

We went up 11/20 last year...I don't think that was opening day. Belleayre has been great about getting open early and staying open late. Unlike most Pocono places that fear lawsuits, they'll leave slopes open even though there might be a three foot wide patch where you have to hop over mud.

The transferable season pass is a weird deal...for $1200 you get one season pass that can be used once a day by anyone...you can share it among family and friends, but only one at a time. But... A 'family pack' of two unlimited adult season passes is only $1278...or two full priced adult passes are $1352. It just seems that the transferable pass is the worst deal possible.

Ha, I know you're joking because it's on Montage's NASTAR course, but I think it's open to all students in PA, no matter their age. And you don't have to have membership in any organization---just register the day of the race in the lodge. Like all things at Montage, it's not advertised so there's really small turnouts. They use the NASTAR timing, btw: http://www.nastar.com/index.jsp?pagename=r...7&year=2006

The rock was from Bound Brook, NJ...no, not a real one. Still to early to start any trash talk.

Senor was hit by one. Jeez, where were you?
