You mean Largo was Born??

I had always thought the Gods forged that soul directly out of granite, spitfire, and the icy waters flowing out of the Baltoro.

I'm another unknown John, but Happy Birthday! I remember seeing you in a film about Beginning Rock Climbing in the mid 80's, although I can't recall when the film was made... That film gave me some of my first exposure to knots, simple anchors, and your unique brand of comedy centered around climbing... I gotta try and find that again, you made me laugh more than once as you passed along the info...

Aw shucks.. I guess that film was in the 90's... Well, they say the memory is first to go...

Happy Happy! You have put out some interesting reads, but foremost I remember your your article of traversing Borneo with Dwight Brooks. That was a riveting read.

John all the best. I haven't seen you since we climbed and skied together in the late 70's but I'm sure you look the same. Also your stunning command of the king's english makes reading your stuff a true pleasure. SS

Happy Birthday John.

I actually had a dream with you in it last night. I was at a house party and the Red Hot Chili Peppers played. I met Flea (my bass hero) and we were hanging out with you. Then Bill Murray showed up and I called him Bob. He laughed and said "yeah, Bob".

Can't make this sh#t up.

I'm really liking the AAC/Adidas educational videos you're narrating.

Also a bit late to the party but I want to wish you the best.

You are the Pearl of the Universe and the Gem of the Cosmos every day that you are alive and kicking, brother!

Thanks for sharing your humor, curiosity and larger than largesse creativity with us here on the ST. A force to be reckoned with and savored on all fronts.

Cheers Man!
