Friday!

Well, its friday, and i thought i'd bring you some news:

High tech systems aim to foil counterfit wine.

News Flash: Apparently counterfitters are no longer looking at money, but have instead started printing wine... or something... i haven't actually read the article, the headline just amused me...

oh and:

Oh, and since my 7 summits fund went so well, i've decided to start another fundraiser. This time please support

The Crotchetly Old Man Fund

This fund raises money for me to go be a crotchety old man living in a shack in the woods in Montana. Please donate.

The following items can be donated in lieu of cash:
Parcels of land in Montana
Shacks on parcels of land in Montana
A beater pick-up truck (i think that my car isn't a good crotchety old man car)
Shotguns
Plaid Shirt and Stupid looking baseball cap (can't be a proper crotchety old man without them)
No Trespassing Signs
Gold Bullion
random other things that will interest me...

Thanks for helping charity...
