Grug, because of this thread this website is completely falling apart, it reads like kakadoodoo on the Netscape! There are no new updates nor any new old updates or any new newness, no reader rants or other good stuff! What's going on???

PhantomX: I guess I just don't have much to say. I'm exersizing at least an hour a day. Jaybro's closer than he might think. I do a lot of squats as part of an exercize program at work. I'm down to 180 with maybe 8 pounds to go. I go to the climbing gym two or three times a week (a first for me). I still drink too much beer. Going desert climbing this weekend.

Thanks J. I'll almost certainly do a desert trip in April. Let me know when you're going.

Ever wonder why the Australians do so well in the Olympics with such a small population? I mean, come on, if you take the 2010 population divided by the 2010 (summer) Olympic medal count, Australians do over twice as well as any other country (summary below)
Number of citizens required to win an olympic medal(in 100s of thousands)
Australia 491
Great Britain 1,313
Russia 1,994
Germany 1,995
United States 2,827
China 13,410
Now, while holding this thought, did you ever wonder whether anyone but Austrlians ever eat Vegamite sandwiches?
Now, while holding both of these thoughts at the same time (and this was my big 'eureka' moment), ever wonder if there could be a connection between the two?
Enough said...

Being able to contemplate two conflicting thoughts simultaneously is a sign of an advanced mind.

All of the Australian medals are for eating vile foods.

Medal winners by country at last year's winter Olympics (the last few days of medals not included):
1. Norway 20 (= one medal/243,000 citizens)
2. Canada 17 (= one medal/2,001,000 citizens)
3. Germany 26 (= one medal/3,145,000 citizens)
4. Russia 15 (= one medal/9,462,000 citizens)
5. USA 32 (= one medal/9,649,000 citizens)
I'm fairly sure that they don't have vegemite in Norway, so perhaps it's the pickled herring.
And the top 20 cumulative medal-winning countries at the winter Olympics, prior to 2010:
# 1 Norway: 263
# 2 United States: 193
# 3 Austria: 162
# 4 Finland: 142
# 5 Germany: 125
# 6 Sweden: 108
# 7 Switzerland: 103
# 8 Canada: 96
# 9 Italy: 89
# 10 France: 72
# 11 Netherlands: 69
# 12 Russia: 58
# 13 Japan: 31
# 14 United Kingdom: 26
# 15 China: 22
# 16 Korea, South: 20
# 17 Liechtenstein: 9
= 18 Poland: 6
= 18 Hungary: 6
= 20 Czech Republic: 5
