    Quote from JimBlue: “I've never hiked the AT, nor been on the Katahdin. But I can do without going to Maine. Period. As for the atitudes you got from the other place, well, 'holier than thou' doesn't occur just in religion discussions. I'm rather rude to people who try that silliness on me.

    the harry potter series was great for teens to get into reading. for us growing up , id say it was the hardy boys.i think i read every one of them. i read to my kids every night(for years it was the lord of the rings). it inspired their imaginations, and they still both read when i first met my exwife, she told me she didnt like to read because she was a slow reader. i told her she missed the point, which was to immerse yourself in the book, not caring about how much time it took to finish, and …

  • Posted by: Carlie Gentry March 31, 2014in Thru-Hiking Culture To be honest, anyone who has done a sizable chunk of any long distance hiking trail will be very familiar with many of these, but for the sake of avoiding an overly wordy title, I only mentioned thru hikers and I only mentioned the AT. Don’t feel left out if you have experienced these things as a section hiker on another trail!

    Quote from AnotherKevin: “Quote from socks: “What I notice from a lot of kids is they don't ask the next pertinent question, when they hit a road block by say investigating a problem with a computer program and are told no at some point...they just stop as if that is the last word, crazy what a little common sense will do and how far it will take you. ” We carefully train any independent inquiry out of them.

    Quote from socks: “Quote from SarcasmTheElf: “I am part of a generation where a large portion of people got screwed by being overpraised, overprovided for, overcoddled and overprotected as children. I was lucky to go to a great public school but still be raised in a blue collar home. A lot of my classmates were never allowed explore in their own, to learn anything the hard way, were never denied something they wanted badly enough for them to actually go out an earn it, heck, most of them wouldn'…
