Why I Quit Rock Climbing

Bruce Ediger

I was a dedicated rock climber and a sometime ice climber all through the 1980s. I tried to go climbing every weekend, and every holiday.

Here’s why I quit climbing.

Here’s an incredible cover of Steely Dan’s My Old School, the enigmatic jazz/rock song from 1973. Happy 50th.

I believe this is the picture that got me interested in dinosaurs, and from dinosaurs, I became interested in paleontology.

Cardholder Services

For several years, 2007-2018 perhaps, I would answer any call that reached my cellphone. I wanted to understand the scams, I wanted to know how such hollow, bullshit constructs worked.

She was very excited, because one of the acts was a Trained Rhino!

Summer, 2019, before the pandemic.

I was working in a “open plan” office, albeit a very pleasant one in downtown Denver.
