Cosmic is one of the FEW people that inspire me. Real climber by all definitions I have for what a 'rock climber' is. When his shoulder doesn't work, he climbs slab with his feet, when his knee is screwed he will climb overhangs. When nothing will work, I bet he will climb walls. Seriously, even though I have not met him, he is awesome! Hope everything is good. LMK if you want Cheburashka to send you some luck!

Great to see Dwain again, and even better seeing him on a "quadriped" lead!

Looking pretty svelte these days!


Nice to see him climbing solid on lead on the rock:


Cheers to a good friend - thanks for a fun day!

Cosmic is incomputercado, but got to spend the morning at Apple Valley Crags today with him.



We brought a care package, and had a great day getting the tour in return.

Whaaal, if CosmicMicroGram's father is truly Samuel Clemens, then ...

obviously, Dwain Twain


The old gentleman was not of literary turn or capacity, but he used to jot down brief paragraphs of plain practical information about the river, and sign them “MARK TWAIN,” and give them to the “New Orleans Picayune.” They related to the stage and condition of the river, and were accurate and valuable; and thus far, they contained no poison. But in speaking of the stage of the river to-day, at a given point, the captain was pretty apt to drop in a little remark about this being the first time he had seen the water so high or so low at that particular point for forty-nine years; and now and then he would mention Island so and so, and follow it, in parentheses, with some such observation as “disappeared in 1807, if I remember rightly.” In these antique interjections lay poison and bitterness for the other old pilots, and they used to chaff the “Mark Twain” paragraphs with unsparing mockery.

It was nice seeing Cosmic yesterday. He's incomputer-cado at the moment. Still working his window-wash gig. Got him out climbing for a day. Yay!

IMHO Dwain is one of the nicest Tacos ever to grace the pages of ST. With a heart as big as his ever-ready toothy grin, and a talent for art (both CG and Tie-dyed) that eclipses all contenders, he's one of my favorite peeps and always will be.

Big hug to you Cosmic.

KOCITD!

In my view, it's Cosmic's duty to return at once. He's still one Donini-smurf down... Pc or not Pc... duty is duty...

Here he is cleaning a route he put up in the late 70's - the area trad classic:


And the big cam he is cleaning? He made that in the early 80's to protect this climb. Dwain's "secret weapon", the 4.5:


Edit: Will do, Big Mike.
