This being Werner and all...Shouldn't we be wishing him a happy "Rebirth Day? Either way, happy happenin'!

edit: Rebirth here isn't intended to be a bad thing. Here it just = Reincarnation. perhaps WB was a noble fox last time 'round.

I recollect the first time I met Werner.

I said, "Nice dog". He said, "Meanest dog in California".

I said, " He got a head on both ends. How do he sh#t?"

Werner said to me, "He can't sh#t. That's what make him so mean".

Way to go Werner!

First thing is to just accept it.
Then focus only on the positive!

Oh Kathy

I'm not enlightened, just and old fool.

After the dishes are done and the food is put away Merry says "Werner put the garbage in the dumpster" Hahahaha

Yeah, the women are the domesticated kings.

I could live in the dirt forever. Whoops I better knott say that or I'll be digging ditches for eons.

But it's all good Kathy, especially that day when that propane tank blew up on Pettigrew and Bridwell at the doghouse van while you were watching.

I loved those days ........

Happy B-day Werner, let's see now... its 2007, we first met around 71/72 (when Bridwell first took McKinney and I to Yosemite for our first climbs)that means we've know each other ugh... 36 yrs or so now, shiza... it makes me feel old just thinking about it. By the way, you ever put the sticks on your feet anymore? If so, you have to join me for some turns one of these dayz out in the perimeter... miss you Werner, and hello to Mary- Craig

Yeah Kathy it's Craig the speed ski champion.

Hi Craig, are you still in Italy?

And I don't ski anymore because I have no gear and just plain stopped. Good to hear from you bro.

Yep, I'm still in Europa Werner, that's why you haven't seen me for my annual spring and fall migration to the valley for a wall lately... I've been spending a lot of time in Nepal in the winter skiing for the last six years, its pretty wild to say the least, been pulling many, many first descents over there, like every run. Kathy, for sure I remember you... those were special days and times, lots of good memories. Werner, I have tons of skis and boots, so if that would get you back skiing, let me know and I'll send some out to you. I would love to have you join me for some turns in Nepal for example, I'm sure Mary would love it there as well- all you have to do is show up and I'll take care of the rest, wha da ya say, you in? by the way, I have an 8 yr old daughter now, "Ellie" as you might imagine she's ripping it up on the boards, she's tri-lingual and has a good head, if I knew how to post a picture on this site I'd post a picture of her for you, but I have no idea how to do that. Have to run, but I'll drop in from time to time for a post, mas tarde, tu hermano from the days of old- Craig
