    might have to drag my son w/ me to this. Would love to hear some of his stories and see pictures from his side rather than the national media which was all about Coma.

    Great turn out today and it was a pleasure to hear Ned talk about the whole ordeal. WOW I am still more than amazed what he did.

    Even wore my Neduro to Dakar shirt just to fit in.

    GO NED!
