“What most male climbers want from their female partners is one thing: a good belay.”

“Researches found that licking the sweat from a frog cures depression, only problem is as soon as you stop licking the frog gets depressed again”

“WATER Resources Development and Management Minister Samuel Sipepa Nkomo had a Senate Committee on Gender and Development in stitches when he alleged that mermaids were preventing Government officials from installing water pumps at dams in Gokwe and Mutare.”

” ‘We even hired whites thinking that our boys did not want to work but they also returned saying they would not return to work there again,’ he said.”

Sounds a bit fishy….

I started catching up on some sleep after a full weekend’s climbing. Bliss. I really don’t know why I have this aversion to resting – best I could come up with so far is Cat Stevens’ “It’s hard to stay calm when you’ve found something going on” – so many things to do and so little time. I’ve realised how quickly time passes and I want to hold on.

But, one has to find a balance or else you’re trading quality for quantity. I only realised how tired I was when I tried to sit & watch a movie this afternoon and could barely make it through the first 10 minutes.

I digress, here’s the juicy stuff:

“Well I’m so above you
and it’s plain to see
but I came to love you any way…
So you pulled my heart out and I don’t mind bleedin’

She’s gonna want to explode
It comes screaming out
In an electric shout

She’s the worst thing
I’ve been addicted to

(but) I run right back
Run right back to her“

“Charged particles from the sun will strike the Earth on Tuesday after a huge solar flare erupted on Monday.

The M9-class solar flare was observed by Nasa’s Solar Dynamics Observatory and erupted from a sunspot on Monday at 03:59 GMT, SpaceWeather.com reported.

The coronal mass ejection or CME is travelling to Earth at 2 200km/s which means that it could potentially cause communications disruptions to networks on the planet that could include disabling satellites in its path.

In the polar regions people could observe spectacular auroras, that may even be visible at lower latitudes.

The CME may have a particular impact in South Africa because of the South Atlantic Anomaly where the Earth’s magnetic field is weakest.

The CME is scheduled to hit at about 14:18 GMT on Tuesday and South Africans should take care to avoid being exposed directly to the sun.”

“You will smile so hard you will wonder why your heart hasn’t burst and bled out all over your chest yet. You will write the story of your lives, have kids with strange names and even stranger tastes. She will introduce your children to the Cat in the Hat and Aslan, maybe in the same day. You will walk the winters of your old age together and she will recite Keats under her breath while you shake the snow off your boots.

Date a girl who reads because you deserve it. You deserve a girl who can give you the most colorful life imaginable. If you can only give her monotony, and stale hours and half-baked proposals, then you’re better off alone. If you want the world and the worlds beyond it, date a girl who reads.

Or better yet, date a girl who writes.”
