John Eaton Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Things I can bring:Inch DB digital caliper in case someone wants to size hands for fun (you can find for ~$25 on sale now) 28 & 16 lb. shots 3x25 (fairly old swirly-finished milled Yorks) I'm assuming there will be a veritable cornucopia of Blob sizes and other objects to play with, given the contestants. Things I'd like to try: Six nice-fitting dimes (in case of a Gripmas Miracle healing of both thumbs and return of my pinch ability) Powerball varieties. Have a safe trip everyone. We'll be going with Anson & Scott; leaving ~3:30. I am bringing 6 dimes that fit good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jad Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Is the garage pretty warm or should we plan on bringing warm clothes? Thanks Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Josh Garage is just like the house - we set the thermostat and bingo - it's whatever we want. I usually keep it set on 62 degrees for working out.

climber511 Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 Some information of interest. Yes the garage has heat. You might want to wear your Right Guard - it's looking like a very full house in there. I have plenty of pop and water but bring any Power Bars or stuff to eat during the contest that you want. We have a big after comp meal for competitors and spectators alike. I drink cheap beer so if you like something special, bring your own. The house number is on the mailbox on the porch. The house has a wooden rail fence in front - easy to find. When you arrive, walk around the house on the left to the building out back - that is the place. If you are bringing a bunch of heavy stuff to play with - you can drive up the alley around back later to unload it - don't try and lug it all the way around. Well - if you think it will wear you out and give me a better chance - go ahead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you're going to have to be pretty messed up before I can beat you - but I think maybe the BB hoop adventure had you where a little girl might have got you. Glad you finally healed up from that little misadventure! Only to hurt your back - you and Scott George - I'm going to order rubber padded suits in bulk for all of us. Sorry not to get another chance at you this time - going to miss you big guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm from Tucson I've never heard of that can you give me more detail The only thing I can compare it to is lifting chalk, but very cold and slippery. The natives don't even seem to notice it.

Man that definitely does seem like a strange place, I think I'm just going to stick the the Southwest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
