[pct-l] Snicker Bandits & Strange Wild Eyed Thrus

[Scott Williams]

Welllll, Dr. Yoshihiro has diagnosed me as having CHD, 'cause I just can't
stop hiking, and I've been known to be quite a moron at times, so it's
probably a dual diagnosis case of compulsive hiking disorder with an overlay
of moronic hiking disorder.  Man, I'm in trouble!  Today I climbed Mt.
Diablo and we had a big bonfire of snowboards and skis, old mittens, and all
kinds of rear entry plastic ski boots.  Really nasty smoke!  Talk about
VOC's.  So I'm hoping we waked up old Diablo himself to blow some hot air on
that Sierra snow, more than even I am capable of.  But as you can see, the
moronic overlay is quickly becoming the basic underpinning of this disorder.
 On the other hand, when we reached the summit, it was still a cool morning,
but by the time we decended to the bottom, it was already an absolutely
gorgeous and hot day!  I'm sure we had an impact!  Or maybe it was just the
blazing chapparell warming the whole mountain by that itme.  Who knows.

But it wasn't me with the snickers.
