Lady Hillary said she was “happy” with her husband’s progress and that he is “in a comfortable position and improves daily.”

She made was no comment on the nature of his illness. Hillary has suffered from altitude sickness for many years and has walked with the aid of a cane for the past several years.

Hillary’s recent visit to the Himalayas saw him and Elizabeth Hawley — unofficial chronicler of expeditions in the Himalayas for 40 years — meeting members of the 2007 “SuperSherpas Expedition” in Nepal’s capital, Katmandu.

The SuperSherpas Expedition hopes to make a historic all-Sherpa attempt on the summit of Everest next month to bring attention to the Sherpa people, who have been guides for every successful attempt on Everest. Many feel their role is under-appreciated.

Since first reaching the 29,035-foot summit of Everest, Hillary has donated millions of dollars to the sherpas for building schools, hospitals, clinics, roads and bridges. He also has helped pay for restoring temples and improving water supplies Nepal.”

“thats who i thought it was”

“Dang! CB!!”

“how's your place coming along,”

“Thanks for asking Oldog. (It was lovely meeting you.)

New picnic tables and the new planter boxes should be here next week. I just had a tour operator tell me she will be bringing a tour bus to stay with me every 2 weeks for 1 night. She didn't like the campground at the GC it was 'old and not well kept' she said. So YIPPEE!!!”

“I thought it was Hillary Duff.”

“Hillary Clinton and her driver were cruising along a country road one evening when an old cow loomed in front of the car. The driver tried to avoid it, but couldn't -- and the old cow was killed.

Hillary told her driver to go up to the farmhouse and explain to the owners what happened. She stayed in the car making phone calls to lobbyists. About an hour later, the driver staggered back to the car with his clothes in disarray. He was holding a half-empty bottle of expensive wine in one hand, an expensive Cuban cigar in the other. He was smiling happily and was smeared with lipstick.

"What happened?" Hillary asked.

"Well," the driver replied, "the farmer gave me the cigar, his wife gave me the wine, and their beautiful daughters made mad passionate love to me."

"My goodness," said Hillary. "What did you tell them?"

"I told them I'm Hillary's driver, and I just killed the old cow."”

“that's a funny one prosecuter, LOL!”

“its an OLD one Pammie”

“I thank that what your doing is cool it takes guts to be self-employed unlike those lawyer types (a punn for Ed) , good look with the tour bus,and I't was nice meeting you to”

“Thanks again Oldog.”
