I enjoy watching the sumo tournaments held in various parts of Japan every odd numbered month. There are a lot of cool techniques where smaller, seemingly weaker opponents can notch a win. I suspect this lucky mountain climber was a student of some of them.

One of my favorite sumo stars is a wrestler called Tobizaru (the flying monkey) who is a master of these techniques. While I don't think he has every emerged as a tournament champion, he always seems to win close to about 2/3rds of his matches.

Fascinating and scary. I guess there is safety in numbers, especially when multiple climbers exactly copy each other’s defensive moves. Smart tactic on “their” behalf./s

It is the total lack of male or female pronouns? The chattering class has gone insane.

A good sharp-tipped walking stick would be handy.

How about if I fight back with my gun? I figure a few shots directly into its face will discourage it from continuing any aggressive behavior towards me.

There was a kid in CT this week who got mauled by a black bear. It was only the intervention by an adult who fought the bear that saved the kid.

Hi.

Didn’t a FReeper kill a bear one time with a knife?

I forget his handle. Maybe started with a “K?”
