    He ran the Dominican Republic while Papa Doc Duvalier ran Haiti.

    His ESPN screen name was PapaG before he had any children. Mystery reopened.

    I stand corrected.

    KS post also adds to the mystery of the man and the name papag.

    I'm thinking that if you're hiking the PCT and wasting any time thinking about this motley bunch, you're doing something wrong. Go do the hike again.

    I did about three days worth of the PCT, the stretch that runs past the Three Sisters. In fact, I reminisced with a female classmate at my 30-year Reunion Saturday night about her getting kicked out of our tent during that hike. I can't believe I forgot to mention my tent-mate biting her on the ass as she crawled out, lol...
