Big Red In Town

[ABM]

Heard Quick say that Bill Walton will be in town all weekend. While he's here, he's planning on dropping by some of his old haunts/digs. Who knows, you may spot him.

Has anyone complimented you on your avatar yet, HCP? I just have to say, that's about the coolest thing I've seen on the board in a long time. You and the Schonz. Fantastic!

From the other thread on the same subject.........

.....until [Walton] leaves on Sunday evening, he is set on reconnecting to the past. He said he would spend much of Friday afternoon driving to his old haunts – Nature's Food and Tool, Wallace Park, Multnomah Athletic Club for a quick soak in the Jacuzzi. And he would visit the old Paramount Theater, where he first met the "Grateful Dead".

"I'm just so happy that I can dream about better tomorrows," Walton said. "You talk about a long strange trip..."

Schonz is a great man. He is truly a good guy. When I first started working down at the RG about 9 years ago, I saw him and about shit. He saw me staring at him and came right over and introduced himself. I told him how much he meant to me as a fan and how I grew up listening to his voice on the radio. Comes right up to me and says, How's it goin' Big John?" evreytime he see's me!

That's great. I grew up listening to him call Blazer games and have very fond memories of that eperience. I called his radio program once when I was about 16. He always struck me as a very decent guy.

He's a liberal.

He's a liberal.

I won't hold that against him. Some liberals are well-meaning people who have just been deluded.
