I had a long winded post aimed to get any climbing celebs that are no doubt hiding on this site to admit it, but the more I edited it the more I realized what a wanker I am so I ctrl-x it. Reviving the post anyway cause I'm so bored here at work with 3 minutes left till 5:00. So anyway, guess this should really be a poll to see how many people will fling poo at me.

John gill posts now and then as does John Long also Eric Horst, any of those guys famous? to toot my own small horn I have been called famous by some but never achieved any fame . . . Is Steve "manboy" Townsend really famous or are you guys just goofing? I spent 10 days with the man at Smith last fall. I Didn't know he was famous. Jack Marshal posts here, he's famous . . . with the laaadieees.

I'll add a few more to the list. Rich Goldstone and Bob D'Antonio post here regularly. Alan Watts and Michael Paul each have a few posts here--and, of course, Bob VanBelle is infamous. 8^) Curt

Potreoed - is Magic Ed that put up all those routes in Potreo and has loads of FA's. I guess that would be as famous as I would know.

Damn type writers and frenchies!!! :shock: - That's what I look like after trying to do em. :lol:

In reply to: God they must be RICH! Eric has a brand new jag that he gets detailed every friday. John Long smokes big fat cigars that he lights with $100 bills. They both have been seen partying with Ivan Green at Manhattan's swankest clubs, two or three bejewled super models on each arm. I hear that they dised Trump when he wanted to hang with them, called him a punter right to his face. Trump told JL he was "fired". JL lost his cool and tossed "the donald" through a plate glass window. The cops came of course, and it took six of New York's finest to Cuff JL. With all the violence the super models got scared, Ivan was kind enough to escort them to his limo where they relaxed in the hot tub with a bottle of '68 Chateau Margoux. When tempers calmed down and JL apologized it only took a couple of c notes for the cops to let him go but Eric had to promise to keep JL on his meds. Trump was livid but the cops could be heard muttering "punter" under their breath as they got back in the cruiser and headed for the DD. Kidding aside, Eric claims that he is not rich.

Fluxus said: Kidding aside, Eric claims that he is not rich. Haha, well I enjoyed the post anyway and you had me until the mention of Trump. Yeah I'm a sucker. The JL and lighting cgars w/ c-notes made me dubious, but I was still hoping at that point and man it was intriguing! And I'm sure he's not Bill Gates rich, but the guys still gotta have money. Not that it matters or that it's anyone's business but his.

Somebody please put a bullet into the head of this thread. Aim for the reptilian part of the brain, the one that controls breathing.
