What's up, slackas? You seem to be floating the thread on your own pretty well tonight. Keep up the good work -- I'm travelling over 500 miles from home this weekend so I won't be able to dig it out again ;)

Anyways, it's been a slow night -- started to pack some stuff together for the big Z trip. Can't hardly wait.

That being said, I'm going to bed -- CUL8R.

Pack for the Big Z? I've got packing for backpacking down to an art now...takes about 10 minutes. Don't usually forget anything either as long as I'm not in a hurry.

Afternoon! Just had to bring this thread up to the top to freak all those out who don't like to see it except at night. Guess that's just the mood I'm in right now. he,he, he, he, (don't give me a gun or I'll use it on someone.)

Naw! I wouldn't. I sure could use a beer though. I think I'll go home, let the dog out, throw on the swim suit and take a nap in the sun. bye, ya'll
I'll try to be in a better mood tomorrow.

Hey, give me credit, at least I warn you when I'm in a bad mood.

dadburn it.

thunder clouds and nearby lightening kept us away from the pool today.

We did get to go see Shrek 2 tonight though, and I highly recommend it. Borrow a neighbors kid if you don't have none of your own.

Or just go by yourself, its a good good flick.

"I've got packing for backpacking down to an art now...takes about 10 minutes."

The actual packing took me about 10 minutes. It's getting everything together that takes forever -- I always use a checklist or I'm guaranteed to forget something important.

Anyway, I'm all set now -- leaving for my buddy's place in Carlisle right after work tomorrow. C ya at da Z on Friday!

Yea, I heard Shrek was really good, and I liked the first one.

My problem is that I'm too stubborn to pay $10 to see the movie at night (because life in NJ is just sooooo cheap...) and who wants to go during the matinee when it's so nice outside?

Alas, I may just have to wait for the video...

Yeah, I have an excel spreadsheet with my gear weights that I glance over quickly. Other than that I leave most everything packed up and everything is stored together. Food bin, sleeping bag bins, usual gear bin, tent bin, misc gear bin, and the frozen bin which I put in the freezer. It houses my platys, filter, pot/pan, and some other stuff I hate cleaning and drying after each trip.

Oh my Gawd Dub, tell me you're joking!

Do you take into account standard deviation of the scale or differences in weight due to gravity or phases of the moon?!?

What if you're a couple grams over? Do you cut the end of your toothbrush off? Take the cardboard out of the TP roll???

LMAO!!!!

Sorry Dude, I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you!
(right?)

Capn Bobo, that spreadsheet has helped me go from a 65lbs pack for three days to 20lbs if I want to go UL or 30lbs as I normally go. I carried a lot of heavy things like a 1.5lbs knife and a 2lbs flashlight and an 11oz pillow.

As for being an ultralight wanker...no holes in my toothbrush, I laugh at those guys.

BTW, the spreadsheet also takes into account the centrifugal force caused by the rotation of the galaxy as well as distance from the sun and the effects of its gravitational field.

Oh well, in that case...

OK, but I'm in one of those moods so I'm gonna challenge you.
Moohahhahhhahaahahahaa!

So you dropped 35 pounds, I'll give you 5 whole pounds for the knife, flashlight, and pillow. where's the other 30 ??????
Moohhaahhahhahhahhah!!!

And I want to see the spreadsheet, do you have any graphs or pie charts!
Capn Bobo

its in excel, a pie chart would be kinda cool...

ok, i'm a nerd, i admit it.
Roam Around

Sure, I'll send it to you later. I lost other weight by going from a 4lbs bag to a 3lbs bag, and a 7lbs pack to a 3.5lbs pack. Stopped carrying extra shoes, books, a palm pilot and a hatchet. Got a lighter stove, cut down ounces on stuff like hand sanitizer, etc. Lots of stuff...but I kid you not when I say I had a 5,000ci overloaded with things strapped on the outside.

a palm pilot???

i used to carry a stool that weighed about 2 pounds


not to mentions other crap too.
Roam Around

I never really carried anything that I saw that I didn't need, but over the years my pack has gotten significantly lighter... i'm just not sure why, lol. new and impoved gear i suppose, my sleeping bag for one makes a world of difference...

why are we talking about backpacking on this board anyway?
