he sits in his basement for days on end, surrounded by Star Wars figurines and dusty Dungeons and Dragon boards, waiting on me to post then.....POW, he hits me with his lightning fast ninja skills.

he once said to me, "grasshopper, when you can run right line through death eddy on myballzitch creek in Colorado, you true spirit warrior and kayaker, but you will always be ignorant east coast boater who talk to much on computer."

he's my mentor and the wind beneath my wings.

he's a great american.
