a 6b in free climbing can be!
Because the local climbing center has been bulging this evening, Martin and I found a free place between some 4s. I've been really surprised how sophisticated this 6b route is.
From now on this will be my favorite in this range ;-)

Music MP3 album download more expensive than CD buy?

I'd like to download the new Wallis Bird album "New Boots" and pay for it.
But the CD costs in Media Markt and at Amazon 9,99 EUR and 7digital claims 10,99 EUR for the download.
Apple sells the downloadable album in iTunes for 8,99 EUR. Well, cheaper, but I don't accept that value by comparison to the CD price.
Won't these guys become wiser?

Innsbruck in whiteout

After some weeks with sun, temperature raise, birds' twittering and colors of spring this morning you see snow again.
It's currently snowing. Sidewalks and streets are white.

Sylvester is horror for animals

Yesterday it was the first time at Dec 31st that my sister's cat slept too long in the night. The years before he was out in the nature when the fireworks starts outside.
This time he sprinted through the rooms. From one room to the next one and back again.
He has been on panicked escape to nowhere. In the last corner he tried to hide from the bangs. His pulse at 180, mouth open, tongue outside, snarling. He has been scared to death.

Just a short update...

Well, today I've been skiing. Great snow and sunny.
I've to do more training during the week again to be fit for top skiing.
I'm really tired now. But time flies. And I've started to study maths in spare time and so there are some priorities ;-(
