It was almost dark by the time we got to the last half of the drive, so it was hard really see to much of that part. But just as we left the park we stopped at an overlook, off to the side, right after you get on the the main highway, the last bit of light was dissapearing, but you could still see the whole view. I Def recommend stopping there for one last look. It was beautiful. I'll see if any of my pictures from that spot are even decent.

But if you happen to be driving back toward west glacier / on to somewhere like Columbia Falls, make sure someone e is rested enough to make the journey cause...whewww, that's a drive after hiking around all day.

Thanks! :)

First thought: If this was done on purpose, don't these people know how many bigwigs get caught. Like, all the time. Even martha stewart got caught. Jeeze.

Why would they think they would special? One would think they would give it up at this point.

Second thoughts: if CEOs, etc, keep this up, it makes me wonder how many people get away with it all the time, for them to take a chance like that.

Third thought: they really think the consequences for insider trading are less problematic to them than facing jail, and paying a fine up to, what, 3 times the amount they made? That makes no sense. Back to the second thought, I guess.

I mean, honestly I was hoping for tips and tricks to... maybe not make them suffer, but definitely keep all the clean water for myself. If they suffer due to me hoarding all the water then so be it.

Of course, I'll share with those who ask nicely, but, with that types* mentality, I doubt they would.

*I'm not referring to all conservatives, just the crazy ones.

Forgive my ignorance, but how would they suffer more than anyone else in the same area? How would one neighbor be deprived of clean water anymore than another neighbor?

Plus, they have more guns...

I always wondered how that worked.

If everyone takes time off at the same time then...nothing gets done. Interesting.

Apparently they used to have soundproof rooms in the back of nice movie theaters where u could take your crying child and still enjoy the movie...as much as possible

This.

You get some gear. It's nice, but heavy...then you realize there's so much lighter stuff out there.

$100/lbs later your congratulating yourself that your base weight is 15lbs until you add food and water, and you realize that your pack still is too heavy. You finally shave off another 2 lbs by buying all new luxury items at $30-$50 a pop, and getting a lighter stove.

Then winter comes, and that 4 season, dyneema tent looks mighty appealing. Not to mention you need a better rated sleeping bag (cause that hammock ain't gonna cut it) and a pad, a better puffy and fleece, crampons, maybe an ice pick, and another stove that works in the cold...

Edit. Damn it, I forgot I need new shoes...even if I wanted to brave it using my summer pair, those trail running shoes are destroyed over the course of 1 season.

Technically, it said he still occasionally sings at the family restaurant.

Idk. So I look it up, cause it sounds ridiculous, and it says that Jet fuel produces an average of 21.1 pounds of CO2 per gallon and aviation gas 18.4, while fuel for cars is 19.6 and that (not the greatest source but) helicopters and airplanes use the same type of fuel he might not actually be wrong about saving emissions, considering Austin traffic nowadays...but im no expert, and it's still a jackass thing to do, not to mention pretty dangerous, no matter how much the police block off the parking lot.

He knows, and he doesn't care.

Once he became the richest person on the planet, he stopped giving a shit. Money buys anything he wants, so why should he.

Honestly, as much as I think he's a db, and i dislike what hes become, I kinda find it makes him more relatable. I mean, who wouldn't be consumed by extreme money and power? If anything, it distracts from the idea that you're a giant cash bag and reminds people that you're only human. Although from what I understand, he always been this way, and he just had a great PR team in the beginning.

This is completely unhelpful to you, but...

It sounds like you found the lost, last book, from the Hank the Cowdog series. But, you lost it again :(

This is the same way they worded the abortion bill. Completely vague.

The problem is that when women took the law to court to, not even overturn the bill, but just to clarify the language and situations in which the bill applies (concerning medical emergencies), the texas ag office immediately stayed the courts ruiling that doctors could use "good faith judgement," kicking the can further down the road till next year.

The state claims that the law is explict in these situations and that the doctors are at fault for misinterpretating it, which is BS. The language is vague and they want to make sure it stays that way so they can apply it at whim.
