In reply to: so, bob ... can we coerce you into joining us? In reply to: Love too! I think I could keep up Flamer and would love to do some climbing on the "Pass". On another note: Tom Perkins new guidebook to the "Pass" is out and looks great. |

In reply to: Little know factoid here. Did you know YOUR hero, Joe DiMaggio, and MY hero, John Muir, share something (no, not dirty underwear!). DiMaggio was born in Martinez, California, exactly one month before John Muir died, also in Martinez. They mighta been neighbors! Coincidence? You be the judge.
One great life ends and another begins!
Did you like Muir writing? He is one of favorite authors along with Wallace Stegner and Willa Cather. I like his writing much more than Thoreau, more down to earth and basic, if you know what I mean.

In reply to: In reply to: so, bob ... can we coerce you into joining us? mud wrestling between skibbster and kcrag at the summit???
Do not base your participation on this. Amber was supposed to mud (or jello) wrestle lilred at the PBC, however, and sadly--this never materialized.

Curt, thanks for the info, didn't want to get my hopes too high. Still have to go to meet some of these characters!
You should come, lot's of good bouldering around the "Pass".

okay, young'uns, gather 'round ... uncle geo gonna' let you in on a little surprise.
*come here little martha -- come sit on yer' old oncle's lap. atta' girl!*
it seems that bob d'antonio is planning on attending out little shindig. now, this a good thing on several fronts. not only is bob a guidebook author nonpareil (that's french, by the way. it means, um ... somethingoranother), a prolific first ascentionist with probably well over six- or seven-hundred routes under his swami, and a walking, talking repository of climbing history ...
[b:b67e0502b0]bob has also offered to put on a slide show![/b:b67e0502b0]
so let's have a show of support and encouragement for what is shaping up to be a truly august occasion!
*feel the love ... feel the love, bay-bee!*

so let's see ...
we have bob d'antonio, published author; martha perantoni, published author; and ME, weekly newspaper humor columnist. and what does it say in THE GOOD BOOK ("rules for writers")? it says, "when three or more are gathered, there shall be scotch"!

Cad drugh Feck!
ill be in Cinncinati that weekend, and im still trying to get to one of these Colorado shindigs. This one sounds epic, although im rather partial to Dalwhinnie meself Geo, that talisker drool is what the heathens drink. Bring on the Single MAlts! Next time i swear, i think, maybe...
cheers

Should we add some culture to this event? How does everyone feel about a slide show of climbing and bouldering in Indonesia?

hahaha .. i think he'd be more inclined to approve if he's there -- especially if he has exclusive rights to the front row and all photography for the event.
honestly though, we may end up spending the weekend at his work gig in SLC so that i can fly in early and catch a few extra days with him (awww).
i'm sure that we can arrange a mud wrestling event at some point though.
-----------------------------------
and, yes, geo .. i'm afraid that your plans have been foiled again -- he took me up the kingfisher, grills amazing steaks, gives me climbing stuff, and let me have the crux of maiden voyage in the Black ... not to mention an absolutely spectacular weekend in NYC ... i'm afraid that there's just not much hope for me anymore these days. .. (insert nauseating display of affection .. hehehe)

hey geo,
i'll know by tomorrow morning if i can make it. my weeks in uzbekistan keep getting switched around, but i'll have a firm final date sometime today. my guess is i'll be in tashkent during this weekend, but i'll drink a bottle of lagavulin on the plane and pretend the guy i'm sitting next to on the plane is you.
bob - i'd love to see the indonesia slide show. what kind of climbing, and where in indonesia? i'll be working down there next year and want to do some climbing. mostly i'll be on an island whose name i forget near bali, but i also may be doing some working in irian jaya near carstenz. any and all beta is appreciated.
