Right now I am programming a stupid PID controller for the 3rd time because it won't seem to hold onto my settings. These are the things I do to sponsor his ass.
At least my knees aren't sore?

So the story is that the company I work for posted that they were offering "sponsorships" to staff to compete in climbing, cycling, kayaking and running... I was the only person to apply for the climbing one and the rest is ^^

Clearly you first didn't direct them to the "I'm overweight" thread you posted in when you requested that they sponsor your comp fees:-) 
Good call there. I like Jim Titts point up thread as well.
