So in your uhhhh, equivalent here, did we also get to use that childs mother to make money for our home and family. Did we pay her a wage and then use some of the money she generated working for us...
Go look it up..... In 1776 we were $25,000,000.00 in debt, by 1780 we were $54,000,000.00 in debt. We have always been in debt, we will always be in debt. Debt is the device Alexander Hamilton...
What’s odd to me is that no one is looking past the mere financial or legal equation to see, what it is, that will become of the person who thru-hikes the AT. To be a ‘’thru-hiker’’ is always touted...

Wow, that is crazy. I wonder if George Orwell knew that big brother would come in the form of a hiking enthusiast from Michigan. I guess in some peoples mind, if you can't force other people...
For the record I am 100% disabled, I have been disabled for 30+ years. I will be hiking the trial in 2012. If you, anyone or someone would like to discriminate against handicapped people, I would...
Just remember to read the TOSS agreement if you choose to post your journal on a web-blog site or a forum. WHY? There are people who glean stories or journal entrees and post them to their own...
WOW... I agree 100%. They aught to inscribe that as a footnote under each blaze. (For those who are thinking about the environmental impact of my statement, that was mere hyperbole.)
I would say that going on any trip expecting to borrow anything and not plan for yourself is what I am speaking to. Prior Planning Prevents Poor Presentation... or If it is to be, it is up to me. I...
Hey, hurray if this works out OK, but I hope this list does not redefine the bar and is viewed as an exception, not the standard.

Dude that is a beautiful way to live life, kudos and I tip my hat. I was born under a wandering star, (thanks Lee Marvin) and I look forward to the next thing I don't know and the next horizon...
I bought some today from Blue Ridge Mt. Sports, when I got a few dry sacks online. The total was over 50.00, so I got shipping free. If you still have purchases to make, you might combine them. Just...
I have four pair of Merrill Chameleon III, I love them. I use the Ventilator for trails without rock, and I use Chameleon's for everything else. When I slip them off I always feel like I am taking...
Maybe the low attention on the "kilt" topic, is the answer to your question.
I own 2 pair of Vasque, I got them because their parent company is Red Wing Boots and I own some of those too... But, the Vasque is not a terrible shoe and you can usually find them on closeout...
I have always hiked in Merrells, I currently own no less than 8 pair. I use the 49.99 Dr. Schulz orthotics that I get at Walmart.... FOR ME... its like hiking in slippers..maybe not for you, but I...
Great talk, I could do with out the hokey christian crap, but at a Calvinist College, its probably part of the brain washing..er curriculum. At any rate, the hiking parts of the talk were fantastic.
"and let these nay saying "can't-do's" cipher exaggerated excuses as to why they can't do, what you want to do" Thanks Slo.
First, I am giving up a lot of cash to BlueRidge Mt. Sports to buy hiking equiptment. I am then giving up 24 hour-a-day news cycles, TV advertising, and florecent lights. I will miss my wife and my...
