Bill Russell got "rummied up" at the Gordo Ranch one evening, went off, and took a broom and put a bunch of holes in the door with it.......I came home from work and saw all the holes and heard the story. A few nights later, he got a bit tipsy, and finished off the door with a pair of crutches that Arturo from Columbia was sporting from a bouldering fall........I thought the whole thing was really funny, and when I asked him about it......he shrugged his shoulders, mummbled a few words, and replaced the door with a new one in a timely manner too. Bill also made a life size poster of a Yosemite Ranger, put it on the same door, and shot it with one of those high powered home made pvc potatoe guns.......there was a potatoe sticking in the door, potatoe splat one the ceiling, and the Ranger in the poster was missing his crotch.

Isn't there a story about Swilliam talking a six pack and a six shooter to the buttermilks and shooting off glued hold on some boulder problem?
