The crazy bald dyslexic dwarf will zipline into the news, where ever it occurs, all for her unpaid blog articles.

Well, next thing I need to do is inventory my mountain gear
And make sure we get a new rope...a twenty year old line is not something I'd trust my life to.
We will be covering the back country in winter as well. Having good rope and all that is a good idea.
Funny thing, we have the capacity to get to the back country, which our competitors really do not.

Thanks.

I wonder if Crazy Miriam Raftery will pay for nadin's new zipline.
Her free blog is making her a rich woman, a millionairess on nearly equal footing with Skimmer, and she doesn't pay her "reporters".
It's hard to imagine a media empire based on volunteer word salads from a crazy bald dwarf, but as ballplayers incessantly say, it is what it is.
And if nadin has to buy the Nomex, zipline, Bowie knife, body bags, Good Rig, and all the other tools of her unpaid trade, will she claim income tax deductions? Though she isn't being paid?

I'm aware that you have climbed most of the mountains in the world on your many adventures(including that time you rescued that class of 6th graders from Mt. McKinley), but Mt. Everest can be a tough one! Many have perished.
So, please take care!

The crazy bald dyslexic dwarf. . . . A 4'5", 285 lb. bald pumpkin sliding down a rope.
I've been re-reading The Hobbit, and there's a part where a fat dwarf--literally, a fat dwarf--is hauled up the side of a mountain on a rope.
Nadin "Bombur" Abbott?
Or maybe just Nadin Bomburzinski.
-
It's not the rope, it's the strength of the tree.
-
If nads wants to strike it rich, all she has to do is have someone videotape her attempting to rappel, and then post it on youtube.
The ad revenue based on hits from my household alone would push her right up there with the 1%ers in income.
Watching that plump, bald dwarf pop on the side of a craggy cliff might only come second to how satisfying it is to step on an engorged dog tick.

A 4'5", 285 lb.
GOBUCKS, out of morbid curiosity, how accurate are those numbers?

A minor quibble -
I believe she thinks she is Battman - hanging around in the JustUs League with Spidderman and Supperman - and on the other side of the RubikCon lies their arch nemesis Zappaman.

So, what's new, she's been repelling me for years.

That is one delusional toad. No offense to toads, mind you, at least they have a purpose. The only "mountain" she's ever climbed is a pile of cheeze-whiz nachos.

21. It's the coast that is the warning sign
The mountains, we got snow.
But yes, climate is changing. Today, after the jeep gets it's LoJack, picking up the chains.
Some of our lower elevations do not have the proper roofs if we should add snow...I want to be able to get there safely. And this is the seventh straight day chains have been required in higher elevations.

43. Reporter... It's what we do
If need be, lower the back seat...pick up food on the way, water, throw the sleeping bag for fun, and the entrenching tool. (And pick a pair of heavy duty gloves)
Of course, fill the thermos with coffee.
I need to put in the first aid kit in as well. Alas, that's obvious.
You wanna laugh? Most of our local press wings it...next fire season I need to take the funny photo of guy in flip flops, shorts and short sleeve rayon shirt by the fire line. Right now they got the god given sense...not to try to get stupid and get satellite trucks in there. Between the high profile, top heavy and no four wheel... Hey bud, you wanna be part of the news?
Yup, little fella, it's just what we do.

Anybody want to take a stab at the level of provisions nads would need to tote around with her? How does one pack a provision bag when they look like they're on a 15,000 calorie-a-day diet?

First, canned milk. Lots and lots of canned milk.

First, canned milk. Lots and lots of canned milk.
One can of Carnation Canned Milk has 480 calories. Just to survive for two days, she's going to need 64 cans of milk. Doesn't she drive a truck? This is probably why.
-
How's she gonna get to the mountains using the Trolley?
And seriously, nads--you live in SAN-DI-****ING-EGO. The worst weather you hit around there is June gloom. Even the mountains around San Diego are worse for the heat than the snow and cold which almost always melts in a matter of hours.
You need to go NORTH, doofus. Like Bishop and points north in the Sierras.
-
I just want to have a full kit
In the jeep. No snowmobile here. I used to do rescue, why I got the gear, and know how to use it.
It has not been used in a long time. So time to inventory and replace what needs replacing. (Which is most of it...I need a helmet too)
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=2181275
Ut oh, she "knows how to use it!" :whatever:
Ummmm....Toots, you don't need a helmet, you need a burlap sack over your face.

She has a helmet, but doesn't like to wear it because then she can't lick the windows.

9. Nope...but read the OP
We're reporters. So at times, when you go away from the storm, we go towards it.
I used to do rescue for real... And as we inventoried the basic stuff you need to carry when driving in winter weather, we both went...time to inventory the mountain rescue gear (and most likely) replace most of it.
If in the course of a story I come across a major accident, I can actually help...many moons ago I got to rappel down one of them hills and start care before local VFD got there. Used to carry a full trauma kit in the car. Need to actually increase the size of the first aid kit.
She stole mountain rescue gear from her last gig as a lowly EMT?
Aren't there laws against this?

74. nd a champion fencer who almost went to the Olympics!
So, she is definitely agile enough.
Add in paramedic, as you noted, as well as cop, firefighter, and marine, and I highly doubt we have to worry.
Regardless, good luck Nadine!
She was never a paramedic.

Of course she is. She's fuller of it than any DUmmy in the history of the DUmp, with the possible exception of TiT.
That's why she was a brilliant, exceptional, exemplary DUmmy of the Year, and why she should have been reelected.

Maybe she's DollarTits feminine side?

I just noticed the bolded. She might be needing the rope to wrangle the other 'participant' of fun into the sleeping bag.

Oh, coach, it's never been a question of anyone on this side of the fence ever believing a word she ever said. Hell, most of HER side thinks she's fuller of crap than a Thanksgiving turkey.
Nads is like your insane relative you can't NOT invite to family gatherings. She's embarrassing, pathetic, yet in a perverse way, you keep her around if only to hear what pathetically stupid shit she'll say next.

The sort of rope you need to keep from turning into a grease stain on the rocks below takes one burly sailor per yard to carry around, and us usually found in the anchor locker of a ULCC.

She is full of it. I climb for a living and for recreation-trees, rocks, glaciers, windmills, radio towers, etc. and even teach rope rescue courses for several of the local fire departments. There is not a saddle on the market that would go around her waist, they top out at around 45 inches and if you are climbing in winter weather, you lose a couple inches just from the heavier clothing. Not to mention the fact that she is so top heavy, I've got to wonder how she stays upright on rope.

I dunno, if she hiked anything more difficult than the buffet line at Golden Corral, I'll be surprised.
Although with her girth, it's more likely than not she'd need some load-bearing gear to get that plate (and her fat ass) back to the table.

If you weren't one of the bullies who doubt her incredible resume and asked that, she'd probably tell you how she learned to tie a Swiss seat while she was telling the rappelling instructors what they were doing wrong at Air Assault School. Of course she'd spell it wrong, so it'd probably come out like 'Switz set,' or something.
