Big Mike, I know you mean well but I'm afraid this will lead to Jim's joining
Locker's Big-Headed Club and that's not a good thing.

Jim seems pretty down to earth. It's hard to see him getting big headed.

If Jim has a problem with it, I will delete if he makes his wishes known.

Even if you are an unrepentant troll, at times.
See you in The City!

He's a good climber and a good leader.
Also a good Troll.
He does slide shows from time to time. They are not to be missed.
I like him and want to hear more from him.

Jim is pretty much all around good. Might need to sharpen up the musical interests a bit, he's been stuck on Tiny Tim.

I was literally in diapers when Donini sent the Egger. Cool in my book.

I'd probably be smart to wear a diaper myself, if I went for the Egger

I meet Jim in Cochise last year - one nice & good man, and that is more important than his amazing accomplishments. & amazing they are.

I tell ya. . . when he'd come to camp, we'd all hang on his every word. . . either crowded around the table on rescue or kickin' up dirt in the parking lot. . . it always felt like somebody FOREIGN came to play.
Bridwell and I sat and cried at one of his Patagonia slideshows. He did it with a lady (gee, I wanna say wife - but it may have been a GF) - she did a very cultured, non-climbing voice and, of course, his was so mind bendingly WORLDLY. . . I may not have understood a single word.
Here's to donini. . . keepin' it real!

In my opinion, Donini still has one of the funnier posts on ST.
The topic was "How did you get staretd climbing?"
Donini wrote that he was reading a magazine in the dentist's office and there was an article about Chris Sharma that made climbing look like fun - so he decided to give it a try.
