Porn? Aliens? Stains on the coffee table?? What the???

Ok, I've read the START of the forum now and it all makes snese.

YOU'RE ALL CRAZY.

I should win that coffeee table book because I'm not going to make some bulldust story up to get it - rather:

1. I've poured all my money this year into a ticket to a Third-World country, where I'll be working for nothing, living on rice and beans, and getting eaten alive by mosquitoes, so that I can save a small patch of rainforest

2. There'll be no climbing where I'm going, and when I finally come back here looking like a brown swizzel-stick from my minimalist diet & lack of training, I'll need something to look at, and remind me of the good times ahead whilst I pump iron and throw endless laps on the woody trying to getting back into form!

3. Said poverty means I can't afford this book as a Christmas present to myself. I used up the last of my savings on water purification tablets and rabies shots.

I'm doing a re-think now. Maybe I'M the one who's crazy....
