Third guy in the pic could be Ken Hamm (the shake bro) or Dan the Human Drug Machine. Either could have been with the Driver and Mims.

Gnomeoftoomanybasehits: Ok, I've got no idea,
but some one fess it up. . .
who sent me up "loose Lips"?
yeah , still
It was probably Russ (fish) or Mike Paul (Watusi)
Certainly not me, and I doubt it was Mike... Have you ever been to JT?? I mean for reals, not like tripping away on an astral projection thing while riding on a dragon with 3 vulvas and doing DMT through a curly straw all while wearing a rugby shirt and an aviators mask sorta thing? You know, like for reals, man.?.?.?

No CF, not the Manx Cat and definitely not Doug (Moonie). We all lived together in SD, see Santee bouldering photo upthread.
I found this one of Boogleman in Tuolumne. I don't remember the route but looks tilted, the wrong way.

My Rejection Letter
Crestfallen, I retreated yesterday to my musty greenhouse sauna to baste as sweat soaked the waves of grief washed over my thick hide. Compounded by the awareness of nauseatingly revolting fumes from the adjacent dogs sh#t bucket, I could only think back fondly of my tenure there and the memories of all those years ago amongst the cactuses and yuccas along the gritty sun burnt trails of J Tree land.
Fond memories of huge puss glistened jamming scabs from the wide cracks of that place filled my mind. There was once the time I drove into Hidden Valley, after breaking up again with a Riverside girl I once was in love with, and en-route had ingested a huge quantity of shrooms which were cooking in my brain. I had sat there alone for uncounted hours devoid of all but my wayward spirit to guide me, when the regulars found me I was in an alarming agitated state, and many beers were required to calm me before a midnight run through the desert tired me enough to finally sleep.
Did I not become worthy the time the iron door cave was barred from outside for several hours to prevent my escape? Did not those spluttered bleatings of yore haunt my every dream to humble the tragic man child I once was? Or was it the latent domesticity that finally hobbled me, and removed all hope of initiation into their irreverent adolescent tribe?
But alas as the rejection letter signed by none other than Sheepnonymous fell to the gravelly floor of my pungent perspiration den, I finally understood I would never be eligible for membership to that shallowed crowd. It wasn't that my resume of drunkenness and debauchery were not low enough, nor were my transgressions against the brave and the bold not more than shameful. And my meager climbing skills were clearly of no merit.
There it was, bald faced and obvious. I held up the rejection letter in my grimy claw, and read again, "This reply is to inform you membership to the Sheep Buggerers is not considered due to the fact we've never heard of you...bla bla bla, such and such, bla bla," (end of letter).

Russ,
Please give us a rundown on some of the many nick names for the "man with a 1000 names"
Bruckman
I know a couple, but to have a Russ list will be invaluable for historical purposes
I did 100s of routes with the man, including the "Romantic Warrior"

Thanks for the photos and the awesome fond memories of our youth. Still trying to figure out how I ended up on the list right under the Fish?? The only time I really climbed the Fish gave me a black eye....the Creature ;)

LaWoman: No idea about a black eye, but anything is possible. Climbing is dangerous. Who are you?

Don't lie Russ, I think she took your V.
we all thought you liked boys, but she proved us wrong
Don't you remember the thread
"ANYONE know how to get in contact with E. Eriksson?"
She was looking to find her old boyfriend E
I wonder if they hooked back up?

Not ringing a bell... I would remember something like that. Maybe you have her mixed up with Jessica or Lynnie something? Ask Winkie. He might know.
