12:32 pm - Sport Climbing at the Grampians the Gallery
I went climbing this weekend in the grampians, to an area called the Gallery. The Gallery is a big cave with a whole lot of really hard climbs on it. This is a pick of the cave with some people climbing
Everything there was too hard, I tried one climb called chain of fools (a grade 23) and almost made it to the top.
Here is Nick P on the same climb
Also check out this youtube video I uploaded of one of the guys we were climbing with

The next day we went to Gilhams crag, and again there were some of the most well known climbers there doing some crazy climbs. Nick ended up leading a grade 18 climb and we did 2 other 16's and top roped a 19.
The rock straight ahead is Gilhams crag
Here is another nice photo from Gilhams crag
A couple of photos from the way home

2/3 of all the people in the world are vegetarians.
Update: Thats what the display at Fed Square said. But after some research by me I think this is bullshit.
Looks like its probably closer to about 15% of the worlds population.

09:50 am - Cheese
Forget champagne and chocolates, the best food to perk up your sex life is cheese. A US study reveals that it contains more of the "love drug" phenylethylamine than chocolate.

09:40 am - Vegitarians use less water
If your worried about drought and wasting water, you shouldn't eat meat.

"The picture for other efficient farming systems can be calculated easily and shows the litres of water to produce a kilogram of yearling beef is about 40,000; lamb, 60,000; rice, 1600; wheat, 2000; peaches 450. And rest assured that our farmers are among the best on the planet in achieving these water use efficiencies."

08:19 pm - LAGE RAHO MUNNA BHAI
A movie to go and watch. You might not get some of the jokes but its very funny and very well done.
LAGE RAHO MUNNA BHAI
Munnabhai, our local Bombay goon, and his reliable buddy, Circuit are back! Munna is in love…with the voice of popular radio jockey Jhanvi. Her effervescent greeting of “Good Morning Bombay” on her daily radio show makes Munna’s heart skip a beat each time he listens to her.
Life is beautiful for Munna – his dadagiri business is flourishing, he listens besottedly to the radio for hours every day, he dreams of marrying Jhanvi…
There is just one minor problem. Jhanvi thinks Munna us a Professor of History. And in all her innocence, Jhanvi even invites Munna to give a history lecture to her family.
As Munna tries to sort out this minor entanglement in his otherwise perfect life, Circuit comes up with a bright solution. And then the most unusual thing occurs in Munna’s life…
What happens when the present meets the past? What happens when our very own Professor of History encounters a figure from History?
Come, join Munna and Circuit on an unexpected historical tour…

09:36 am - Quotes about Teapots
"If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time.", Bertrand Russell
"The reason organized religion merits outright hostility is that, unlike belief in Russell's teapot, religion is powerful, influential, tax-exempt and systematically passed on to children too young to defend themselves. Children are not compelled to spend their formative years memorizing loony books about teapots. Government-subsidized schools don't exclude children whose parents prefer the wrong shape of teapot. Teapot-believers don't stone teapot-unbelievers, teapot-apostates, teapot-heretics and teapot-blasphemers to death. Mothers don't warn their sons off marrying teapot-shiksas whose parents believe in three teapots rather than one. People who put the milk in first don't kneecap those who put the tea in first.", Richard Dawkins
