            That waiver is unenforceable.  Besides, even if it were, if you die, Tuesday and the kids still can sue, since you didn't (and can't) waive their right to do so.

              yeah, but i can see them getting deposed with all the discovery showing how much of an idiot i am & all the dumbsh!t i do.  when they roll the tape the court reporter would probably fall out his/her chair laughing.

              they would be lucky to get two quarters to rub together, hahahahahahahahaha

              this is going to be soooo bad, but my gig & real life has me stressed, so this is a good stress reliever

                    Just tried to get a furlough discount on my lite & it didn't work.  Figured it was worth a try  :-[.

                    Still haven't gotten an email with my packing list & where to show-up. Also where you fellows get your bricks from on the cheap? I think I may need one or two in a few days.

                      They have not reached out to me either nor have they returned my phone calls. Not very happy. Last time they reached out to me a month in advance with packing list, Facebook page etc…

                            home depot. Also available at HD, gorilla tape is much more reasonable than the exorbitantly priced red white and blue tape GORUCK offers, and no way anything could be any stronger than that shit.

                              Gorilla Tape is awesome. I use it sometimes to fix my dogs toys, and not even a Rottweiler's bite can destroy it

                              One warning though, if you use it for home repair, it can destroy whatever you attach it to if you try to remove it.

                              I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                                  Okay, Home Depot for Gorilla tape & bricks.

                                  Sending an email to the Goruck dudes for my packing list & all that goodness, will give them till this weekend then I'm going to bow out of this one & sign up again once they are a bit more organized.  Plus the reason i was signing up for this particular challenge wants to eat some phish or watch some phish swim or something but he's too nice to actually come out & say it.

                                  told you that you good, we just f^ckin', hahahahahaha

                                      looks like Phish wins.

                                      still no word from the Goruck folks . . .

                                        On a different note, what the fuck is up with these guys over at GORUCK? Not a strong showing from a customer service standpoint going on these days…

                                          Maybe I can get Monday and Seawolf to come to Phish with me hahaha

                                            so, what kind of bait & reel do you use for Phish?
