Hello,
while I was climbing with my daughter, we found this amazing piece of news:

Well, boredom is really common among zoo animals, but that just takes the bisquit, I think....

@ Steve: Well, it's pretty cold and wet in Germany, so we went to an
in-door climbing hall; they've got ropes to balance on as well, and to show everybody how simple it is (or so I think...
) they had this bit hanging near the tight rope balancing area...

That explains it. I had this picture in my mind of you climbing with your daughter on your back holding a newspaper in front of your face so you could read while climbing.

Yeah, call me Spidey....
In fact, she's better than me, due to excess weight on my behalf (or my hips or my belly or.. well, you get the picture)

Just to let y'all know, a gorilla isn't a monkey. They are apes. Most people in the primate world would kill you for that, but what do you have to fear from a pack of anthropologists anyway??
