This blog is not a democracy.

So, apparently, Les Stroud won the poll. This is suspicious b/c we all know that Bear Gryllis has the superior survival show, mostly b/c he drinks his own pee and doesn't whine nearly as much. I suspect ballot box tampering. In any case, b/c this is MY blog, I have declared BG the winner. Congrats, old chap!

In that case, I hope my anti-beach-volleyball vote counts double. No, quintuple.

I don't even know what the survey was (being on blog-hiatus and all) but didn't you read the scandal about BG? Apparently, he gets help from his crew all the time and they all occasionally take breaks to stay in hotels while they are on a shoot. The story however did not indicate whether he continues to drink hs own pee while staying at the four seasons...

Which is why I appreciate his show as a demonstration of survival skills, rather than an actual survival in the rough. And the biggest thing you learn from that show, aside from drinking your own pee, is that to survive any temperature extreme, the key is to dig a hole and climb in. I much prefer BG to LS just b/c LS spends too much time on his cameras and then whines the rest of the time about how he's about to die.
