I sent Bill an email from WB saying hello a few weeks ago. I have a feeling my emails are blocked from WB.

Wasn't trying to "talk behind some one's back". Would love for him to join us here. I agree he is a very good writer. But he did put himself out there with some very long post and appeared to enjoy bringing attention to himself. I am sure some of us at least were thinking to ourselves how much of this is true (and thus the idea for the poll).

I really enjoyed reading his stuff, and I hope he makes it over here. One thing I never figured out though: I posted in a thread about speed that even when I hiked as fast as I could, to the point of almost tripping and falling twice per minute, I still couldn't keep up with the ultralighters in our group. He told me the key to hiking fast was tempo.
Not sure what tempo means, but I must not have much of it.

You are not missing much. I owned its twin (Mercury Topaz). Not much of a car.

I met Just Bill years ago when he was just a pup a few miles from Palatine Illinois, sparky as he was he loved to hike on top of a dad shoulders. He was always a wink in the girls admiration & enjoys the camaraderie of men. He doesn't drink Dos Equis, as a man he drink's Red Bull. He can free an angry bear from a painful-looking bear trap; shooting a pool trick shot before an Indian audience (by shooting the cue ball out of the mouth of a man lying on the pool table); He can catch a marlin while cavorting in a Hemingway-esque scene with a beautiful, young woman; winning an arm-wrestling match in a South American setting; surfing the killer wave; and bench pressing two young East Asian women in a casino setting, each woman being seated in a chair. "if he were to punch you in the face, you would have to fight off the strong urge to thank him"; "he can speak French, in Russian & Ebonics"; "he once parallel-parked a steam train"; "his two cents is worth $1 and change"; "even his enemies list him as their emergency contact". Frequently on the trail he would hike fast ahead to catch up to the Russian and tell him to be part of the group.... and slow down. He doesn't need a Spot... he has Pussy Galore. He doesn't need a compass ... Tonto is in front of him. Nobody can pass with Just Bill, only follow.

My first car was a Ford Pinto- the year that would explode if it got rear ended. I gave it to my sister, I never did get along with her. I like tents she likes Hiltons.
