Quote of the day:

“In a sense everything that is exists to climb. All evolution is a climbing towards a higher form. Climbing for life as it reaches towards the consciousness, towards the spirit. We have always honored the high places because we sense them to be the homes of gods. In the mountains there is the promise of... something unexplainable. A higher place of awareness, a spirit that soars. So we climb... and in climbing there is more than a metaphor; there is a means of discovery. ”
-- Rob Parker

Joke of the day:

A mountaineer was flying to New York in a four-engine plane, when the pilot announced that one engine had failed and there would be a 30 minute delay. The pilot said there was no reason for concern as the jet had three more engines. The same announcement was made two more times. Finally, the mountaineer turned to the person in the next seat and said, "I hope the other engine doesn't fail or we'll be up here all day."
