I thought you were just reiterating that your handle was intentionally ironic.
There are men who won't buy tampons, and then there are men who will consent to be photographed with a tampon up each nostril....strings dangling, no less. What amazes me are the men who, in absence of explanatory alcohol or drugs, fit into both groups even though they have passed what, in strict medical terms, is called adolescence. (By explanatory alcohol or drugs, I mean chemically-induced adolescence.....fearless, flamboyant, sometimes demonstratively empathetic but sometimes profoundly thoughtless, sometimes incredibly inventive, and yet sometimes inexplicably stupid.)
GutHook is not the name of someone I'd be in a rush to have making my dinner, at any rate. It's not a prejudice I couldn't overcome. I'd just not want to be his first target, er, dinner guest. No offense meant.
I looked at GutHook's journal yesterday, and it made me wish I had started the trail earlier. Those pies looked GOOD.
"Too much civilization around here! Remember when the woods used to be woods, Harry?"
how does he post to trailjournals from the trail?

before washing your jeans shorts, pre-treat by throwing them away.
I just heard over dinner in Dahlonega, that someone who might have had a pack on his back, and an army duffle bag on his front, and maybe was named one of the Characters brought forward in time on Bill And Ted's Excellent Adventure, and maybe posts here, and it was NOT Napolean, Abraham Lincoln, Genghis Khan, Billy the Kid, Freud, Joan of Arc, Beethoven, or the two righteous princess babes.
Socrates!!
What did you hear of Socrates over dinner? I was eagerly trying to get to the end of that sentence...

Jettjames..........wireless internet we provide.
Mindi...............they were excellent! He is an awesome baker.
Guthook (appropriate name - here on the trout farm, but he got it before he came here) works for the AMC. He is an outstanding young man! Low key, easy going, smart, I can't say enough wonderful things about him. New trail name - maybe, but the trail name Gods weren;t here that day.
It was scarry for a few moments Starlyte. I mean it was a gusher. He was up for making this tense situation fun and Memorable, knowing he may be teased endlessly. He is the kind of hiker you want to STAY around. Not just cause he can bake. We also had fresh cinnamon rolls each morning.
I met him on springer, and Laura is right. He's easy to talk to, and has an excellent attitude. And he mentioned planning Cloud 9 for his first hostel experinence. Seems he's on a tight schedule and has to be finished in early July. Here's wishing him a safe and swift journey!
A bad day on the trail beats a good day most anywhere else.
Just take it as a warning!!!! If you start gushing blood around me.......I shall attack with tampax!!!!

If you're looking for more unique political and social commentary in a "stream of conciousness" style he would be the natural choice. Especially after the way he carried the torch for MS last year.
If that's not your cup of tea then the "Blissful and family" thread would probably suit...seems like they've got a large following already.
"When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute.
But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute--and it's longer than any hour.
That's relativity." --Albert Einstein--
Everyone should hold their noses tight if they're near Wonderfoot. Wait! That doesn't sound right....
Bliss and Bunyon are one of us. They deserve our support. I hope we continue to hear from them all the way to Maine and long afterwards.
