Nicole, that's not entirely true. I thought the same thing for a long time but in reality only alcoholic beverages have a net negative effect on your hydration. Coffee and tea will contribute to hydration but at a lower rate than water (i can't remember the exact numbers). In fact for many people most of their water comsumption actually comes from the food they eat and not the things they drink.

seriously, a variety pack bunch of young, tight, flexible bodies all crammed into a small area for 2-3 weeks. -- swimmers and winter athletes have the advantage of keeping a bit more fat to soften things up a little.

John Hopkins reaction to the email: http://www.hopkinskimmelcancercenter.org...on=showthisitem

smelled like a hoax, so i checked it out. a quick google search will give you a host of sites that debunk this. a bit of advice, if it's in a forwarded email, it's usually junk. i'd delete this post so as not to perpetuate bogus info.

ok, i uploaded the panoramas south view north view south-east view and part of the crew hiking

if i'm around for the next sunny day, i'd be all over that. ...even the jump, gotta take advantage of the warranty.

CB, i meant skis and trekkers. I busted my bindings when i was up the time before. I'll have my skis back on Wednesday. btw, Toque, i got a bonus from work this morning that will cover the new Naxos. boot shopping is back on! that pic of me is going on the cubicle wall for motivation, sweet!

Nice pic, toque. It was hard for me to visualize my location during the hike. It was an awesome run, many thanks to you and FF for taking us out. and an extra thanks to FF for lending me gear again. Looking forward to seeing all the pictures. I'll try to stitch up my panoramas today.

maybe because they are detachable and they don't want them seizing up during the night and causing problems in the morning. dunno.

haha, we call it 'rolling down the windows' back home

Quote: Sock Monkey, just cos he hasn't given up his Canadian passport doesn't mean he is any less Australian i made no such claim, i just pointed out that he is just as much a canadian (in fact, if not spirit) which you got on FT's back about.

exactly, saying he's canadian is not a claim on the medal but pride in the medalist however, if he makes money off spyware and such junk as the canadian and australian media have reported, then i think we should revoke it.

anyone? bueller?

Quote: his passport says AUSTRALIAN that would carry more weight if he'd surrendured his canadian citizenship. so in response: his other one says CANADIAN

have to agree about the medals. they look like junk. what are they supposed to represent, does torino mean hole?

Quote: She looks like she is going to cry all the time speaking of which, every japanese athlete i've seen interviewed post competition has been crying or teary eyed. even with the bad results it seems excessive

wow, a whole 8 hour break. well, since i'm up.

Yuichi's car is full. fjef, i'm heading somewhere else next weekend, i'd def. take you up on that otherwise. still looking for a ride for this weekend...

and form in the air too? or am i on crack. haven't watched any since 98 so i can't remember.

doesn't {or didn't) ski jumping have points for landing?

oh, his friend said he wasn't going so i assumed both weren't going. guess i just need to get my ass to Saitama then.

sanno, insanely early ended up being 12:30 AM, arrival was 5am. i need a ride again this weekend, anyone?

Sava, i'm a code monkey of course.

No work for me Saturday! I signed with a new team last night So anyone heading up to Hakuba from Tokyo?
