I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Kristin, you and my mom. Poor woman married a climber and an astronomer. She spent(spends) a lot of time Not Looking That Way.

But hey, she survived Machu Picchu last year. Though she avoided the trail up the peak that even freaked out my dad (and that she thought he fell off of for about 2 hours. He didn't. It was someone else he helped carry down. She greeted him, absolutely furious that he was upright and walking and how DARE he not be the broken one.)

So 24. Less than 4 hours in and Jack's breaking the law VERY publicly again. You'd think, given what's gone down the prior 3 years, that everybody would know his face by now. Heh.

The status is NOT quo.

Machu Picchu has ginormous dropoffs? That you have to navigate by car? Damn it. Cross that off my list, and I so wanted to see it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Earthquakes. Fast, no stress beforehand and then you deal with the aftermath. Plus it is cool to think of the earth just twitching like that.

Um, I grew up on the San Andreas. I'm good with the earthquakes.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Plus it is cool to think of the earth just twitching like that.

No, really, it's not.

Well, they did it by foot. Long long days of hiking. I don't know about auto access. I'm thinking not, but I could be easily wrong as I only know of their experience.

Our wings are not tired

And my house getting picked up and dropped down the street is good? Um, no.

I'll stick with ground that shakes. At least my house stays in the same zipcode.

And yes, ginormous drop-offs. Stairs so steep my mom climbed by sitting on her ass and scooting up backwards. And I would have too, seeing the pictures.

Earthquakes are quick, and hard to predict. So I like them, because no anticipation.

Yes, this. It really hit home for me when my parents were in Florida for this year's hurricane season. I like that earthquakes just happen. No 10 days of worrying if the storm is going to hit you or veer past. An earthquake comes out of the blue and you deal.
