Magnum PO???

JC has AOPOD, Acute Overobsesive Poison Oak Dysfunction.

In between Snake Charmer and Pain In the Asp is a PO bush that I repeatedly kept getting in. I was completely focused on the new climbs and not on the PO. Finally on the rapel, a strong gust of wind caught the rope and it landed smack in the middle of the PO.

So I was dubbed Magnum Po or Magnum for short. People with excessively large foreheads shouldn't throw out these kind of nicknames.

It's not like I was frolicking naked through the poison oak.


Recently JC said "you read my mind", I replied "I like short stories".

So all is fair.

In that shot I would have liked the focus to be on the rock around Magnum, AND also his expression.
