I need somebody who doesn't mind dangling.........


Give me about a week or so for my foot to heal well enough to get my climbing shoes on and I'll gather up my ropes and harness and help you out. I fall in the brave idiot slot I guess since I was up for 22 hours boxing with Artemis and Eidolon on cruches, ok so at least the idiot part fits…..

You be careful-I'd be more worried if I were you that the first person suggested to me for an idiot was YOU Eidelon! LOL

e-mail me some of the information so I know what I'm getting into here and what gear I need.

I'm sure it wasn't the first time he and idiot were in the same sentence nor will it be the last....

Ah so you think others will call Eidelon an idiot? Maybe we should put a tracker on that?
Email you with information-um, okay-well I don't hafta-here-big cliffs, water, you'd be an idiot to try to plant this box? LOL

I guess we better pick a really warm day (if we have any more coming) if I have to get wet doing this. I'll try anything once so have 911 at the ready on your cell phone

I wouldn't call an idiot Eidolon. Oh wait a minute I think I got that confused.

let me clarify my original post. I did not intend to call Eidolon an idiot in the sense that he is lacking in mental capacity. My intent was to suggest him for the job of planting, based on some of his other exploits I have read...this seems to be the sort of thing that is right up his alley.

I understand that the word "Eidolon" is a synonym for "Extreme Letterboxing".

LOL! oddly enough-I don't see him volunteering! Poor Gimpy is taking pity on me-(did I mention that the reason I need help is b/c after my second son was born I became terrified of heights? I'm not a chicken to do much of anything, but I was suddenly petrified to be up high!

No, no, no... "Eidolon" is synonymous with "Crazy Full-throttle Insane Letterboxing (Even After You Drop)"

Around here, T REX is synonymous with Extreme Letterboxing.

OMG, I thought I was the only person something like this has happened to. I now have a dread of heights, alligators, and dogs, which I didn't have before I had children. I thought it was just my motherly/protective instincts kicking in. So, MAYBE I am normal.

Oh yeah! It's boooooootiful in some spots-but they're recklessly destroying most of it to put a gagillion million monopoly houses up. I love the snow--it's a break-from the green? LOL! I don't mind it too much-but with the heat-friends call it the armpit of the earth down here!

Okay, you have a point especially if you live anywhere near ATL! I live in NEGA and it is right at the beginning of the mountains, on many acres of family land, so I guess my own little bit of paradise is askew : )

My brother and other family live around Madison, WI and it is gorgous in the summer. Of course, 2 summers ago on 4th of July, it was 54* during the fireworks. Boy was I not ready for that. I had to go buy sweats for the family. And they actually had them for sell in the middle of the summer OMG!

That's about right-what is NOT right in my world is when Halloween is so dang hot that you can't wear any type of costume b/c you sweat in it too much for it to be fun to T or T!

Yeah! I have had a few of those. But you never know from year to year what the weather will be like. I have bought fleece costumes for my boys and they had to wear longjohns under them and the next year they are sweating their booties off. Poor kids! But they are all about the candy, so they will suffer through the crazy weather of North GA.

Being that I"m a total dork-NEGA would be NORTHEAST GA *sigh* My brain leaked out with the birth of my children-We're up there a lot-recently up to Keowee Key SC. I have a friend who works in Clemson. We're planning to try to find somewhere to stay near Hart Lake.
