    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.

    If you have to ask, you should just join Greg from AlpineZone at Killington. The place that gets the most people must be the best.
    Always charging it in honor of Flyin' Ryan Hawks.

I would like to take this opportunity to formally invite you to "start fresh" at our friendly forums.

We also have superior bandwidth and response times on our 502g superfibre network as well as a state-of-the-art virtual blade server farm with 5000 terabytes of virtual disk space for your photos, blogs etc. If you are weary of all the foolishness and yearn for some intellectually stimulating mountain sport discourse, then come join our fun-loving but responsible bunch of snowriding aficionados who know the benefits of what good moderation brings to an on-line community. I think most all of you will find that our seasoned moderators "keep the bar high" by maintaining a sense of order and decorum, while encouraging quality discussion about our favorite pastime. It may take a small amount of getting used to, as we do have reasonable standards as far as language and image posting that are strictly enforced. I will warn you however up front that registering an ALIAS is strictly "VERBOTEN", and something we have zero-tolerance with. The registration is easy and painless, and the rules will be explained in detail during the process. If you are tired of the juvenile goings-on at TGR, all I can say is: "Come join the fun"!

    When I go to Killington, I don't even ski. I'm too busy fighting off all the Jersey girls.

    Vert was right but you must have rounded up on the ride time. I've always heard it usually takes less than 19 minutes but with a stiff tailwind can climax in less than a minute.

    Stratton's Ejaculator lift guarantees you'll get up and get off again and again.

    How does Greg know when to show up?
    Does he ever change the script?
    Would he get angry if he were banned?

    That's why it's called The Pickle Barrel, not The Pussy Bucket.
