"Dude. Rule 5. Read it and live it."

Funny thing is, he hasn't bothered her once again after he looked it up.
It trumps all!

Yes, yes it does. Especially when the offender's income is greater annually than the cost of my house.

Frank vs. the Volcano

Found this while poking around on the #5 Rule site, worth a watch. here is a guy who doesn't need to HTFU

Frank's rematch with Haleakala, the Volcano on East Maui. Haleakala is both the longest paved climb in the world, as well as the shortest ascent from sea level to 10,000 found anywhere on the planet.
