Great idea about Tyrion dying. Very funny.
Dear Conservatarians,
I love the Babylon Bee, and I love you guys even more for having Ethan Nicole on. Thank you. After a chapter in a Robert Crais Joe Pike novel, and that scene in The Revenant film, I too have been wondering where I could find a practical book in surviving in a world full of Alaskan brown-bears.
I can’t imagine that I need to know any more than I learned in Bill Bryson’s comprehensive coverage of the subject in A Walk in the Woods.
The Bryson book had some great bear quotes:
This book also has some good advice regarding bears . . .
The “how to” video for steps 1-6:
Thanks for pointing me to Audio Mullet. A bunch of guys sittin’ around, shootin’ the breeze, guy-style, about guy-stuff like . . . Chesterton? That’s awesome.
Thanks for having Ethan Nicolle on. Truly interesting stuff. Seems like he would be a fun guy to hang out with. Interestingly, I did some free lance writing for Veggie Tales for a brief period before they went to Netflix. I got paid a significant sum of money to write scripts that were never produced. (Suffice it to say, they were a company in leadership turmoil at that moment in time.)
Bearnado!
Thanks for the honesty, Stephen! Your perspective means a lot since the life issue obviously isn’t at the top of your list of priorities, but you at least ask the right questions.
