How can I obtain an unedited copy of the Parmenter Manifesto (with names instead of Mr. X, etc)?
Mr. X = the loud mouthed Sam George. Mr. Xer (or whatever) is Chris Mauro. You have the right to know!!!>>> How can I obtain an unedited copy of the Parmenter Manifesto (with names > instead of Mr. X, etc)?
That clarifies this whole thing alot. Thanks for this info (& the other explanation) Sluggo. Much easier to understand DP’s reaction, knowing the source of the irritation. EJ>>> Mr. X = the loud mouthed Sam George.>>> Mr. Xer (or whatever) is Chris Mauro.>>> You have the right to know!!!
Wow…I thought those three were pretty tight knit…didn’t Sam George ride Parmenter’s boards for a number of years? Didn’t Parmenter teach Mauro how to shape???>>> That clarifies this whole thing alot.

I haven’t re-read the “manifesto” recently, but I would offer the observation that the three guys mentioned all make their living out of surfing in one form or another, as well as all being quite good with words. If there is bad blood in there now you can probably follow the money. Money might not be the prime motivator, but it is a common denominator.
If you remember, Dave was married to Rell. Rell died of breast cancer. After Rell died, Sam’s wife got breast cancer and instead of supporting her through her battle with cancer he left her. Too much to deal with, too hard on his lifestyle. How do you travel when your wife is going through radiation therapy.

You travel together on HER journey… as long as there is life, there is hope… and beyond that, there still remains love.
