RidgeRacer Posted April 26, 2019 Report Posted April 26, 2019 Not meeting / skiing with Barb is unacceptable. 1 Quote
Barb Posted April 26, 2019 Report Posted April 26, 2019 That’s on me. I am not a huge fan of Copper and he decided that was where he wanted to ski instead of WP. I don’t know why I don’t like Copper, but I couldn’t get amped up to go. I am sure he will be back next year. Still waiting for some of you fools to join me in Crested Butte. 2 Quote

I don't know shit about cars really. This is true to an extent. It’s VERY unlikely that not using the parking brake will wear that out in the lifetime an average person owns the car. It’s also dependent on where the vehicle is parked. If it’s on a flat surface there’s almost no pressure on it. Steep grade is a different story. It’s more likely that your parking brake will fail before the pawl does. 1 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 26, 2019 Author Report Posted April 26, 2019 This is Burger Planet..he has a livestream on YouTube and twitch and he was on I-70 in Lakewood Colorado yesterday when a tractor trailer flew by him and ended up causing a multi car pileup at the one bridge. 2:15 or so into it you see the truck fly by the live-streamer in the exit lane while he’s who’s sitting in stop and go traffic. Then a few minutes later he drives over the bridge which is all fire and explosions. Quote

To me it's a reminder that control is an illusion and if you or I are in the wrong place, it's over and there's not a damn thing we can do about it.

saltyant Posted April 27, 2019 Report Posted April 27, 2019 I had a dream I was in Colorado for some reason and went to a ski resort but didn't have my RTMs so had to rent. It was late afternoon like 5:45 pm and I thought they were open until 9 pm but then they said 7 pm, so I would have to pay $85 for a lift ticket and $40 to rent to ski for under an hour. True story it was a nightmare. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 27, 2019 Author Report Posted April 27, 2019 Pow day at Loveland and Abasin and snow in the forecast. Quote
