I didn't like the rope they had. "Synthetic" clothesline. Synthetic

nylon. The wind bangs that rope against the pole a lot, and if it
breaks and falls out of the top pulley I've no idea how the hell I'd
get a new one threaded. I'm not about to shinny up that flagpole
and I don't know anyone with a ladder that tall. I want good rope.
Line to y'all sailors.


Here in the desert, with the wind and dust...we tend to use a nice
supple, well laid, small steel cable. When tightened down properly..it
doesnt bang the flagpole hardly at all.

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
