I appreciate that he didn't short rope me at the gym tonight.


;-)



The recent favorite guide book thread inspired me to pull out my old orange Wolfe J tree guide.

The original.

There's a paupacity of completetely free climbs in it. somewhere around 40-50. Woody's name is on 14 of the FFAs.



Also, one of the best read autodidactic historians I've run into. His surface political realisim (not cynicism) is grounded in a deep understanding of history from Theuclidites on.

I think he might be lieing about his age a bit too.

Add a few years.

A classic example of a sandbagger eh TGT? I've never met him, saw him from the top of a climb once, walking by, I think he abscounded a few cams from my stash.

I think I saw 110 once on the way back from Tahquitz.


Rideing with him isn't as frightening as belaying him though.

Pedal is always to the metal.

80+? Yeah, if I stop drinking, taking LSD and Ecstasy and shooting meth, coke and heroine, but that's not going to happen!

Thank you all for the thread and appreciation. If one hangs around long enough (67), a lot of folks get to know you. I've got to lose that pot

Just give the pot to locker and Cosmic, they'll smoke it! I may also take a hit or two.

Are you 67? I thought you were 65, but what's a couple years?!

Woody, if you are going to lose that "pot" you've got to refrain from pumpkin pie, chocolate chip cookies, M&M's, peanuts, cashews and other forms of junk food!!!!

You put the girls on a diet, it is time you do the same...!!!

Oh and while you're at it, ditch the nasty anchovies, gag...
