yeah I hear ya. I was sort of just teasing your for calling it out. Besides if you’re here, you’re about as far from media as you can possibly get. . well, baring “Vogue” of course!

wellllllll, if you’re going to grow up right before our eyes via the web and put yourself out there for public consumption, you have to expect to have the piss taken now and then don’t you?

whatever happened to discretion being the better part of valour? i long for the days when folks just went and did cool sh!t on their own and told us all about it in a memoir 20 years later, or over a beer years later in a passingf reference without going into any detail, instead of seeking the approbation of others and publicity for their ventures via the media.

perhaps i am just too media exposured out…

sooooooooo, given the nature of the trip and the very real danger of mines (both buried and otherwise), as well as other unexploded ordinance, can we expect to see a press release in the near future regarding his changing his mind and choosing yet another destination?

if i had to choose between bears and explosives, i’d choose bears

Well Owen I’ll certainly trust someone who’s been there! Pulling information off the web is sometimes a bit questionable for sure. I was able to find a site that said the Falklands average about 24 inches of rain per year which is not all that dry as you say. So I modified my phrase. Thanks for taking time to point that out.
