Sean, I missed the Ice Road Truckers on Sunday, but I caught it tonight. Those guys have got to have fricking nerves of titanium to do that. Everytime I heard the ice cracking I wanted to tell them to get the fuck off the road.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

Yay! I can talk Ice Road Truckers with Sail!
I loved Alex. He cracked me up. Crazy old bear of a canuck.

I loved some of the accents. That kid hauling the oversize loads is so Fargo it's ridiculous.

His wife and kid were beautiful with their pretty, oversized almond eyes.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm watching Ice Road Truckers now. The stuff at the beginning about how they make the road was really interesting.

The cool thing about being unemployed? I've been able to watch 3 episodes of Mythbusters in a row and I'm on number 4, now. So far, I've seen them blow the mute out of a trombone with firecrackers, paint people gold and silver in an effort to kill them (well, they volunteered!), train goldfish to prove they have more than a 3 second memory, sink a boat to see if people get sucked down by the boat wake, whether toast always falls buttered side up, if a person can get thrown through a plate glass window without getting cut, etc. I'm in heaven.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
And now they have the episode where they see if airline toilet seats can eat you starting with your bottom. This is the greatest show.

The lawyer through the window? I really wish they'd done that with the dummy in a conference room chair. If they could find a vampire, even better.
