12/7 Junk From the Abyss

The prizes at the end of the great journeys are as varied as the paths that lead there. However, some of the scenic views these journey take similar form. For this Monday of Doom, we're interesting in one of these way points--The Abyss:
(Abyss comes from the word Byssos, meaning Depth. When you add an "A" at the beginning you negate it (called alpha privative). So, Abyss is literally bottomless, or without depth. Hades is the alpha privative of Eidos--(form or seeing). So, Haides is literally is the Unseen.)
Back to our journey into these lost lands: Half way through Odyssey's journey home, he must venture into Hades, to find the path back home. Half Way through the Aenied, Aeneas must venture into the underworld for knowledge of the founding of Rome. Dante too must seek out similar knowledge in Hell on his way to Heaven. There are infinite other ventures in the terrible places to find the knowledge/power to continue or complete the journey. Read this book:

I feel like I should have really spelled this JD out. Maybe brevity is for the best though…

i think this is a very good junk drawer.
the brevity leaves room for thinking. sometimes it’s better if all the gaps aren’t filled in.

the hardest journey i was ever on
was a 4-5 hour car ride on a paved road in the Sahara. No AC. Had the window down for air flow but when the air is over 100 degrees, that doesn’t help much. Then we tried to roll the window up and it was at that time the window slipped off of whatever was holding it up and fell into the door. And did I mention I was sitting with another guy in the cramped back seat? We dumped water in our hats before putting them on. We did this a lot.
a close second was a camel ride a few days later. that was pretty cool for the first hour. then it just starts to hurt.

I might have the opposite
Coming home from Christmas in central Oregon (home being Medford) in a Mercury Sable station wagon filled with Me, my wife, my son (who was still in a car seat), our dog, my sister and her 2 kids (all the presents tied on top) . We started out from Prineville with clear skies …by the time we turned off 97 it was snowing lightly ….by the time we hit hwy 62 …it was a full-on blizzard….it was snowing so hard I was afraid to stop to even put on chains (I didn’t think I would be able to drive onto the chains, it was so slick) . A 4 hour drive became 7hrs ….Just when I was beginning to think we would never get out of those mountains …we hit Union Creek and was able to stop (the snow had slowed down). …brutal

I had a pretty sweet snow storm coming over the I5 pass back to Oregon after some February bike racing in central california. Whiteout conditions made it a tough drive, but what made things tougher was the fact that the passenger and I had the worst imaginable gas from eating at Olive Garden; think vaporized poo. They were so terrible that they woke up the sleeping 3rd passenger and required us to keep the windows down while blasting the heat to make things “tolerable”. The car was still rank for at least a week after that trip, so much so that my mom commandeered my car to take to work for the next week.
Life is exhausting when you are this stupid.

I hear ya, but the Spurs were also devastated when they lost Robinson. Things eventually turned out pretty well for them.

true. it netted them Duncan.
the Blazers won’t be that bad though.
To be honest, I’m kind of over the initial shock and sadness of the loss for the team (though I still do feel bad for Greg). I think it’s time to move on. We’ve still got a decent team. It’s not good to dwell on things we can’t change.

Last year, when radio head played in seattle, a friend and I drove up, right after work on a thursday. We got to our seats right before they went on stage. We stayed watched the whole show, and then jockeyed our way out of the parking lot. We got on I-5 probably around 1 am. We sucked down redbulls and drove back. I got home around 5am, kept up the caffeine and rolled into work super early. I was dead tired, but it was all worth it. I think that was my last adventure worth sharing around a camp fire.

Weirdest journey I've ever been on
Is what should have been a 5-hour trip from Topeka, KS (where I had led a Mock Trial team to our best finish ever) back to Grinnell, IA (where I went to college0 in the middle of a near whiteout. It took us 11 hours and half the time felt like we were in the middle of the arctic somewhere. Thankfully we did make it (thanks to the entire trip being on Interstates) and I must admit I was never so happy to get back to Grinnell and see about 3 feet of new snow on the ground.

Those midwestern whiteouts are something else
I remember getting stuck in one in high school, driving through Nebraska to get to Aspen for winter break. Six teenagers in a station wagon and we didn’t really know what we were doing — too dumb and young to stop. Finally the staties closed down the interstate and herded us to a cafe in the middle of nowhere. The cops had called the owners in the middle of the night and they opened it up for us and four other cars. We spent about ten hours there, sleeping in the booths, no blankets and our feet hanging off the ends. Nice, nice folks — they cooked up a good breakfast in the morning, gave us sandwiches for the road, and wouldn’t take tips.

If the team as it stands right now comes together and plays well and gets a win, I would find that very encouraging.
if they lose and look bad doing it, however……

My other real strange trip was last year on 12/23
Coming home from the airport at 8 AM (I came back from Asia on the nonstop Tokyo Flight) in the middle of that mega snow storm. Two days before Christmas and literally my cab was the only one of the road. It felt like I was in the middle of some disaster flick.

We got in
About 45 minutes early, only about 3 bag handlers had managed to show up and only one of the two belts in the international arrivals area was working.
On the plus side, I got my bags first out of everyone after 45 minutes of waiting.
I went home and slept for about eight hours.

Had I tried to get home a day earlier
I would have been stuck in Tokyo. Since it was so close to XMas the flight was basically sold out and they could only accommodate about 10 of the about 50 stand-by passengers left from the previous day’s flight on our flight.

hm. lets see. i cant walk for long distances in heels.
which is a huge setback.
i cant run well (but im not very athletic, juwon howard is about where i am at athletically lol)
I have minor swelling still, but this may be due to the plate on the right side which site directly upon a nerve and causes discomfort and twinging pain.
OVerall, I am well though, except for my extreme fear of ice, snow and walking down hills. Not sure I will ever be able to walk down my driveway without being scared.

HOW DID U MISS THIS
oh em gee.
last year on christmas eve i left at 8 pm to get dinner rolls for the family meal. (i spent all day cooking like a good house daughter) . I put on some airforces (not heels) to walk around the corner. If you remember last year , that huge snow storm hit at that time and there was about 2-3 ft of snow on the ground and also a layer of ice all over everything. My drive way is not steep, very shallow grade but sort of long. I decided to slide down it sideways, sort of like riding a snowboard, with my knees bent, and my left ankle, which was in front, caught a dry/rough patch and my body went sliding but the foot stayed put, snapping my ankle in half, literally in half.
I layed in the snow for a while yelling for help b4 turning on my stomach to crawl up to the door , the neighbors finally found me, rolling over had further removed my body and leg from my foot. It was gruesome :(
I had surgery a couple days later to put a plate on each side of the ankle and several screws. The ankle injury was Shav like in severity, where the bones both snapped in half and the ankle joint dislocated.
just a freak accident

I’m guessing you’ve been through physical therapy and/or talked to letsblaze regarding rehab. I’ve blown out my ankle several times and have no ligament tension left (I have to wear a hard brace in order to play most sports that involve cutting motions) If you want to know any ankle strengthening exercises, I can name a few that worked really well for me

oh, I’m on your side. Holly MacKenzie’s article was the best I’ve seen so far, she really just “cried for Greg.” It is horrible to see a guy that releases an apology before the game is over ,grabbed a fan’s hand on his way out, does more in the community than anyone knows, keeps his head on straight, genuinely cares… it sucks to see him like this.
But I keep saying… I am happy we picked Greg. I am happy that I’ve seen such a class guy respond to adversity. I am proud of him and wouldn’t do the 2007 draft over again in a million years. He is our boy.

I like that he didn’t have any foot or ankle problems so far. That’s the death knell for a number of the rather lanky centers that don’t stop growing. His problem area unfortunately seem to be the knees. So he should do everything to strengthen his lower body, eliminate imbalances as far as possible, wear protective equipment, etc.

Tough luck also for other players. Out another week or so after already missing 3 weeks with a twisted ankle. Maybe he wants to chat with Lou Williams about their experiences of getting your mouth shut. The worst I ever had to do was wearing a brace on my upper gums that made it hard to swallow, initially hard to speak, and gave me some nice scars inside.

How long of a cut do you need to get 50 stitches?
by tingeyga on Dec 7, 2009 11:47 AM PST up reply actions 0 recs
50 Inches
In this economy health care can only afford 1 stitch per inch

Journeys
I travelled across Bolivia in a bus where the driver had to hot-wire two cables to start it, and another two to sound the horn on narrow roads where you could drop to your death at a moments notice. When we were stuck on a muddy road, we had to push, and someone pushed so well that he pushed in the back window and cut his wrist. Now it was also cold. Amazing. Two days later we got into a rebel holdup, and I had to face a kid who was about 14 holding an AK47 in our faces. Good times were had by all.
I sailed across the Atlantic from the Canary Islands to Trinidad and almost collided with an angry whale (it was funny to see the skipper stand on deck with a signal pistol as a last defense and probably wouldn’t have helped anything), and a sea freight container where I couldn’t decide if I wanted to go starboard or port around it. A few years later I learned that my skipper had died on a trip in the Pacific after eating something bad and falling in a coma, and his guest couldn’t sail the ship on his own in a heavy storm. He got rescued in time with sharks already circling the capsized boat that was given up.
I travelled across much of Africa, especially East Africa and Namibia, and it’s amazing what kind of “roads” a simple Toyota “truck” can take. Once we were going about 40 mp/h on a road where you would better have used 20 for all the camel-back-sized bumps that made the car and the passengers jump around, and then a tire popped and we went into the ditch. Luckily it was a back tire so the car didn’t roll over. Also lucky that the super old rifle of our guard (it was in North-East Kenya close to Somalia) didn’t fire in that moment. Which it had done a few days earlier. When I watched a documentation on puff adders recently, I was amazed that I didn’t get bit by one since we marched through high grass and small rocky terrain that looked exactly like that for days, often with the hands down to collect samples or measure things. For some reason the thought of snakes never occurred to me when there, I was worried about ticks and predators covered in the grass.
Mountains: I got covered in an avalanche in the Alps but was up high enough to rescue myself. Don’t want to experience that when getting really buried for good. I got almost struck by lightning in the Alps, letting go of a fixed metal rope at the last moment when I felt the tiny hairs on my arm stand up and a fraction of a second later the lightning bolt struck into a metal rod that marked the top of the pass and then jumped over into the rope.
I never had a crash or emergency landing in a plane despite going quite often through bad weather, so in that regard I feel quite secure.

More mountains: Of course also been in fog and snowfall where the snow flies sideways and stings like needles a few times. Got frost-bitten in the Hardangervidda in Norway, reaching the hut after 11 hours outside after falling into a river when trying to cross it and losing orientation in a landscape where one hill looks like the next (no GPS at that time, just maps and a compass). There were icebergs on a nearby lake, in less than 6000 ft altitude.
Once in Zermatt they shut the whole town down which was fun. No more lifts, but you could use two plastic bags as a kind of parasail to draw yourself up a hill and then go back down to kill some time. The whole town relies on electricity, even the cars are electric, so one by one they stopped as well. The owner of the local Rolex store sat in his window with a rifle ;)
And the best-going restaurant in town was one that had a mechanical grill, with some kind of pendulum motor to turn the meat.

i’d expect Russell and Shambo in the final two. That does, of course, depend entirely on Russell making it. Should he go, then I don’t care what happens because a lesser player will win. I’m just hoping Russell uses that immunity idol wisely.
if I had to guess who is in the final two if it’s not Russell, I’d say Mick and Natalie.

Russell lied to him though.
I think Eric is the only for sure vote for Russell if he’s in the finals with anyone but Shambo.

I have a feeling that Russell could win if he were to be paired up against Shambo or any of the former Foa Foa tribe members.

Mick should not and likely will not flip on Russell.
That would break the 4-4 tie and make Galu the majority. Since none of Galu have built strong bonds with the Foa Foa tribe members, they would almost certainly learn from their mistakes and vote out ALL of Foa Foa before looking inwards.
Also, the alliances in the case of a “civil war” would be:
Russell
Shambo
Natalie
Brett
Monica
Dave
Mick
… Jaison would be a big question mark. You also have to take into account that most people on the island probably realize that taking Russell to the final two would be an almost surefire victory.

My greatest journey of recent times was fun.
Two days ago I did something stupid.
While climbing back up a canyon (La Barranca Huentitan) I thought I saw a shortcut. At this point we were at the bottom after a long hike down to the river, we were all very tired so a shortcut seemed like the best way up. No-one else was feeling adventurous enough to take it and opted for the safe path, I did take it.
It was an incredibly steep climb, between 45 and 60 percent gradient, littered with trees. cactuses and incredibly closed off from below by shrubs. Needless to say, within a minute my friends could no longer see me. They continued walking and I continued climbing, hoping to find the top of the path and save myself a two hour climb.
After an hour of climbing, hanging on to trees to steady myself and pulling myself up on vines to avoid the sudden drops, I realised there was no path. Instead, I was at the top of the canyon, with no feasible way to make the climb over the final 40 metre rock face, looking down 300 metres to the bottom. There was also no way down, due to the steepness and the propensity of the ground beneath my feet to shift suddenly causing land slides.
I had to shimmy 250 metres across, hanging on to rocks, vines and trees, before I could find a safe way of getting down by sliding from tree to tree. At one point, I had to hold on to a tree trunk, swing in front of it and therefore over a sheer drop of well over 100 metres to reach the other side. It was the most intense experience of my life, increased by the sight of tombstones earlier, belonging to those that had tripped on path down to the bottom. I managed, with a few cuts on my legs and arms, a few insect bites and a few cactus incidents, to reach the bottom after 2 hours.
I am a stupid, stupid man. Do not take shortcuts up the sides of canyons kids.
It's a tune-out fest.

I’m okay with this injury, I can cope. But if we try the same thing again, just having him work with our rehab staff… that is an awful decision. We need to send Greg to work with the best rehab guy in the industry, Tim Grover.
Greg’s body needs to move more efficiently and gain balance. Grover could help him immensely.

Grover is the guy who extended Jordan’s career, helped Arenas get back from his knee injury, etc. He teaches balance, core, getting the body to move fluidly and efficiently. We are putting Greg through traditional rehab when he needs something to change how he moves fundamentally.

No, it's the correct thing to do.
If Grover or IMG or whoever can do things for his body balance that can’t be done in Portland (though I think the immediate rehab is just to not do anything for 2 months), that should be worth it to him and the Blazers. It’s not like the team can’t afford it, and Grover has done some very nice things for players to prolong their careers far into their 30s. It pays off in the long run.

One of my road trips:
If that is what this JD is about, was when a few of my friends and I went to San Francisco for skateboarding.
SF is the mecca of skateboarding, hands down no question, so it is normal to road trip there on occasion. If you have the means, I highly recommend it. Anyway, there was this one time where I was dead broke, but my friends had some money, and they wanted to go. The four of us took my car. It was mid fall, so winter weather was starting.
During the drive, I needed a break, so I taught my friend how to drive a stick in a rest stop parking lot. He got it down pretty fast. So we took off. Well, snow hit Mt. Shasta, and he did pretty well (I guess, I don’t really know, since I slept through most of it) until the VERY last turn at the very end of pass. He changed lanes during a turn, which is a bad idea! He slid, hit the center wall, and stalled the car. As I was trying to teach him how to get it started again, BOOM another car did the exact same thing and slammed into us. Both cars were stuck together, so we tried to separate and BOOM another car (this time a car full of Russian tourists) did the exact same thing. We finally got all the cars separated and pulled off to the side, and eventually got towed into town. We spent the night at a hotel, and one of my friends called his dad. His dad had recently been laid off, so he had time. He decided to drive us to SF. He came the next day, and he took us to SF. We stayed at a professional skateboarder’s house, and the dad stayed at a hotel.
A few days later, the dad took us out to eat at Sizzler. Whoohoo. Finally “food” that is not a $3 burrito at the bottom of Haight street.
He drove us home the next day. We listened to Van Morrison a lot. He seemed like a cool guy. Coincidentally his dad is Pat Latterty, but we never talked the Blazers as you can probably understand why.
Even though it can be tough to get through things, it is always worth it. We had a great time there. That place is all it is cracked up to be.
