into playing pub trivia.
One of the questions was: What was the name of Hilter's Nazi Party?
To which my friend shouts out, "The GOP."
Entire bar erupts in laughter.

Why do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway
Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?
Why do they call it a TV set when you only get one?
So when you say peacekeeper missile it just seems normal and we don't question it..

BTW what sort of climbing do you do?
FSogol
(45,579 posts)until 2004. A little ice climbing too.
Mendocino
(7,520 posts)started with scrambling and bouldering, then top roping. I never got much further than that. I've crossed a few glaciers and snowfields while backpacking with microspikes but never real ice work.
I had a distant relative who was quite an accomplished climber. Bob Kamps, perhaps you've heard of him.
