iPhone 2.2 udpdate kicks ass!

I figured that by the time it’s done and installed, I would be able to get some more sleep. What I forgot was that my iPhone is also my alarm. Well, as it turns out, by the time the iPhone updated the software, and...

To those that were impacted, I am sorry to see you go, and I wish you all...

Climbing
I’m going back to the rock climbing gym tomorrow after some time off. My arm has healed and tomorrow should be a good day since everyone else will be out voting. I think I’ll stick with bouldering this week.
I need to get a new harness before I go top roping again. Any suggestions?I also need some climbing pants since it’s getting a bit too cold for shorts.
