First off, it's snowing outside, and I don't mean a few flurries. It's a snowstorm that's supposed to drop 9 inches worth of slushy snow on the ground. Unbelievable... Again, this is what I get for living in Wisconsin.

Speaking of inhospitable climates, I've been running through the episodes of Man vs Wild. Bear Grylls just might be my new hero. With The Crocodile Hunter's unfortunate death, Grylls stepped in at the perfect time. After all, someone has to teach us city kids how to escape quicksand and squeeze water from elephant turds. Those are useful skills to have. In reality, I am jealous. I like to think that if the apocalypse came (with zombies of course) I'd be one of the few to survive. In truth, I'd probably end up drinking some tainted water, get dysentery, and die from dehydration. All that's gonna change with Bear Grylls as my wise, and slightly crazy guide.
