Sip Posted October 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 (edited) This is offroading? What's the point? The point? I think this scene from Star Trek V will explain beautifully: 13 EL CAPITAN - KIRK He inserts the pads of two fingers into a narrow crack above his head. He exhales, focussing concentration. Kirk pulls himself up, balancing on a ledge barely an inch wide. Exhilarated, he pauses to admire the view. 14 KIRK'S POV A breathtaking but vertigo-inducing HIGH ANGLE SHOT of Yosemite. This may be the 23rd Century but the park looks the same as it did three hundred years ago. There is a soft WHOOSHING SOUND and SPOCK suddenly rises INTO FRAME. SPOCK Greetings, Captain. 15 WIDE SHOT Spock hovers in mid- air alongside the startled Kirk, kept aloft by means of levitation boots. His hands are clasped behind his back, typically Spock-like. KIRK (he gasps) Spock - What are you doing in this neck of the woods? SPOCK I'm monitoring your progress KIRK I'm flattered. Twelve hundred points of interest in Yosemite and you pick me. Spock doesn't take Kirk's hint to get lost. SPOCK I regret to inform you that the record for free-climbing El Captain is in no danger of being broken. KIRK (as he climbs) I'm not trying to break any records. I'm doing this because I enjoy it. Not to mention the most important reason for climbing a mountain... SPOCK And that is? KIRK (with a smile) Because it's there. Edited October 21, 2004 by Seapahn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoushik Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 OK, I guess it's enjoyable to you. I can respect that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sip Posted October 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 (edited) It's like an addiction ... after a while you start to crave it. You want to go drive over stuff ... look around and feel like you are in the middle of a post card or one of those calendar pictures for each month (not the kind Azat and Armen have), and just get away from this damn screen and keyboard. You can also go to places that not too many people get to see if they stick to just regular paved roads. Actually, my blazer did make the cover of a chevy truck calendar in 2002!!! A bunch of people voted on it and it got selected as the cover! http://www.Sip.us/hf/cover.jpg Needless to say I never flipped the calendar open ... it hung on my wall closed, all year Edited October 21, 2004 by Seapahn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoushik Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 You want to go drive over stuff ... style_images/master/snapback.png This sounds a bit psychotic Actually, I my blazer did make the cover of a chevy truck calendar in 2002!!! A bunch of people voted on it and it got selected as the cover! That's great! How did it happen? Needless to say I never flipped the calendar open ... it hung on my wall closed, all year Isn't it still hanging on the wall? I'd imagine so if I was in your place.

Sip Posted October 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 This sounds a bit psychotic That's great! How did it happen? Isn't it still hanging on the wall? I'd imagine so if I was in your place. I don't know how it really happened. One day I found out it was selected. It was basically on this online chevy truck forum ... that picture is on top of lion's back which you've probably seen me mention before ... out in Utah. So it just got to be pretty popular and the fact that there was both a pickup and a blazer basically on "top" of probably the most famous offroading landmark ever, it seems that a lot of people liked it. I used to have one in UCLA and one at home. But since then I moved so they are somewhere in some box somewhere. I got nothing on any walls yet ... too lazy I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'sss like an adddiction...after a while you start you CRAVE it. You just want to go DRIVE off stuff...look around and feel like you are in the middle of a post card or one of those calendar pictures for each month (exacly like the kind Azat and I have), and just get away from this damn screen and keyboard. You can also go to PLACES that not too many people get to see if they stick to just regular paved roads. See. It's the same. Women and nature are the same.
