I don't know who "Andweeb" is but Jeff Davis is very real and has been
trolling USENET for a longggg time - since at least 1994. He's a Unix and
Deadhead rolled into one.


Really?
He's so perfect I figured Andweeb was having a blast. Especially when he
got Biggers rolling.
Oh, by the way. Andweeb is Andrew McLean. Along with being a world class
mountaineer and the incompetent expedition leader responsible for the
disaster at Shishipangma, he's also a pathological liar and a gutless coward
who committed a felony over this stupid newsgroup.
So much for heroes, eh?

Not all bad, then?

I'm partial to the Aug 22 68 "Lovelight"...

I much prefer the 1966 Decca release (studio version). Of course,
that was Them, with Van on vocals, so it's sort of an unfair
comparison...

Who are, what are Them?

As long as we're off on the tangent of obscure counter-cultural
references, does anyody remember the Firesign Theatre record where they
did the spoof of the "Who's on First Routine" with actual band names
instead of fictitious baseball players? I don't remember them using
"Them", but IIRC they worked The Who, The Guess Who, The Band, and Yes
into the routine. I haven't heard it in 30 years or so, so my
recollection may be hazy.

But to answer the question, "Them" is a novel by Joyce Carol Oates,
which unfortunately contains no skiing content whatsoever.

Is that the one with Peter Graves and the giant nucleated ants living in
the Los Angeles storm drains near the LA River?

Hazy obski reference: listening to Pause in the Disaster tape on the way to
Mammoth: "Put the wagons in a circle! ... No cover charge, any time! ...
Your time is up! ... Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!"

Oops. Should have read further. Yes to Aunties, no to Graves.
Flamethrowers anonymous got a big boost from this one.


For some reason I believe that Peter Graves made ALL those cool sci-fi
movies :-(

ObSki: Looks like it's going to snow like crazy this week - everybody
pile in the family wheels and head on up.


Here too, but they insist on chains. Not without reason, we even have
trouble with rain around here :-(
