Dear Amtrekker,
(verbal) Litter contributes (allegedly) to the destruction of the planet. AND YOU SIR ARE OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED AS THE #1 PIONEER FOR PARAGRAPHICAL GLOBAL WARMING! (for July 2008)Congratufriggin’lations! Our last award was given to Little Johnny McEnroe as went hopping through the forest, scooping up field mice, shouting profanities, and bopping them on the heads; A true 1st Amendment hero.

Then some holier-than-thou-art Fairy bludgeoned him to death, but that’s not the point.

@Anatomicsd: I think it’s more like zombie shorts…

@Popamtrekker: I hate to be the one to say it but it was Nate’s idea to invite you. He said, “We don’t have to outrun the mountain lions we just have to outrun your dad.” Go get him.

@georgerocks & Angie: I have no idea what you guys are talking about. And dam you for making me look like a fool!

I agree, I was shocked and appalled by the profanity littered through this post. Please don’t litter. It hurts.

So jealous of this one! I’ve always wanted to visit the Grand Canyon. Guess I’ll have to add it to my own growing list. Right after the Ultimate Canyon.

Hey Ammie (see what I did there?) You do know that DAMN is a swear word right? Shame on you! Children read this blog! A DAM (Dee-ay-em) is a barrier that primarily serves to retain water. I thought a word-snob like you wouldn’t make such a childish mistake. Next time you come to Boston I’ll buy you a pocket dictionary to carry around, wouldn’t want your memoirs to be filled with such verbal filth as the word “damn”…you make me sick…

I would like to thank Amtrekker and his list. The Grand Canyon is a place I was interested in, but probably would never have seen without the list. I’d also like to thank everyone else that went, old friends and new. I met some terrific young people this weekend but I never felt like the tag along parent in fact, the only awkward time came during the 4.5 mile predawn march to the top when I realized I was hiking through mountain lion country and I was the one too old to keep up with the herd! Thanks again for the best worst weekend I have ever had!

Nice shorts. I guess there is such a thing as reincarnation.
