Joke for the day (January 30, 2008)

An English guy was very ill and his son went to visit him in the hospital. Suddenly, the father began to breathe heavily and grabbed the pen and pad by the bed. With his last ounce of strength he wrote a note, dropped it, and died.

The son was so overcome with grief that he didn't remember slipping the note into his pocket. At the funeral, he reached into the pocket of his coat and immediately felt the note. He excitedly read it thinking it might be something he could recite during the service. It said:
YOU WANKER -- GET OFF MY OXYGEN PIPE!!!

I got this jooke while surfing the net, this is old school though.. hehehe.. CORRNNYY!!!!

Rock Climbing!!

Since I'm in at mountain climbing, I will surely encounter difficult tracks. Mt. Halcon is the mountain that they say give mountaineers hard time because of the one they called "Bundok Sagabal". Before you reach Mt. Halcon, you will have to take on the "Bundok Sagabal" that stands in your way. I think a mountaineer will need a week to reach the top of Mt. Halcon and the return journey as well. A mountaineer will also encounter various rocks and walls during their hike. Which means, they will go rock climbing! Alright!!!

This is the part where I am of a disadvantage. I don't know any techniques or any gears used in rock climbing. I must learn the basics. Haha. Good thing I found a website that gives some info about it. I'm still studying the techniques and can't wait to apply them on the real thing. I think I have to make sure that I have experts around me to back me up just incase something goes wrong. And I need someone to hang out with.. hahaha..

So far, I am still studying the climbing knots. Its part of the basics.. hehehe
