Im 16 years old and the only thing I am interested in is climbing. Clubbing is my life, I know it is but the only problem I have is Im not around it to often. Even tho I live two houses a way from some of the best climbing in the world,Yosemite, I find it hard to achieve what I what and know is possible. I climb is because I want to become one of the best in the history of climbing. So if you have any suggestions about this let me know.
Thanks

You have to be cast in iron first, and don't mind getting run over by cars

As a general rule you'd prefer to be flat as possible and have plenty of edged holes in you to allow the cheese of life to squish through you. This is how people came up with the term "shredded". He shredded on Midnight Lightening.
Second rule: Don't store yourself in water. It is possible to become rusted and hazardous to use when this happens.

Even Royal took lessons from Arthur Murray; but he didn't get gypped.

Get a mentoroll. Almost 75% guaranteed results, according to Trolling Times' survey...

I'd suggest Locker-Goulet, if he's around.

Reilly, remember the time you were barred from the Grate Wall Restaurant in Banff? Of course you wouldn't.

Eight great brownies
Sittin' in a box.
Along comes a climber
And picks their locks.
When he shoed be changing
His smelly old socks.

Harding:
So farewell—to the little free climbs that I do.
Farewell? a long farewell to all my grateness!
This is the state of man: to-day he goes forth
To awkward nailing and choss, to-morrow sublime moves,
And bears his bleeding gobies thick upon him;
The third day comes a Frost, a drilling Frost,
And when he thinks, good easy man, full surely
His grateness is a-ripening, nips his route,
And then he falls as I do.

Dolt:
I see.

avoid expensive women

Amendment A:
Unless they also happen to be, uh, well-endowed, so to speak.

Be humble...

'The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.'
