    the movie never does the book justice.

    Sometimes while I'm walking through the woods of West Virginia, going off trail just to see what's at the top of the hill or what's over there, I find myself wondering when was the last time a person was here. That gets me think where's the nearest place no person has ever been.

    I often ponder about somehow arriving on an unpopulated earth with a circle of friends and acquaintances, and we get the task of rebuilding civilization. It's not a matter of traveling to a post-apolocalyptic city and scavenging off the remnants. It's more like a do-over of coming off Noah's ark after the Great Flood. We have the things we're carrying, and the knowledge and skills of the 21st century. Yeah, I know it's not funny for the humor forum, but that's what I think about.

    Anybody have any garden seeds in their pack?
    Who knows what iron ore looks like and how to make a chainsaw?
    How long does it take to domesticate a cow?
    How do you preserve the knowledge of the modern world without paper?
    When somebody dies, will we dissect them?
    How do you build a civil society and not fall under the control of those who resort to force?

    If a half a$$ed job is understood to be a bad job, Is a full a$$ed job better or worse?

    If peeople get upset finding a hair in their food, why do some pople che on their hair?

    For those that like to use ice fishing shanties and they use then for hours at a time, where do they go to the bathroom?

    Why does it seem like almost every movie/TV series that features a character that has a job as a dishwasher, he/she is ridiculously good looking?

    How is it that in movies/TV shows, no matter how little they make or money they have, the characters always manages to put together really good Halloween costumes?

    If blood spills, what does it sound like?

    How can a structure burn up and down at the same time?

    If they keep taking ingredients out, how come the price of diet food is so high?

    Knowing that people cold possible name their kids after popular TV/movie characters, have you ever met a Gilligan?

    While looking at my feet as I walk my thoughts are: Where's the next water? Is it time for a break? Where should I camp? Contemplating the larger questions never actually happens to me.

    The speed of light is a little over 186,282 miles per second, I wonder what the speed of dark is....

    I left the truck, walked 5 miles. Why is the walk back so much farther?

    May all your hikes have clear skies, fair winds and no rocks under your pad.

    Who is to say, maybe we are the ones that are upside down.
    Who made the decision anyway that north is on top and south is on the bottom. Rolls

    I also wonder how long the trail would be if it were flattened out instead of crumpled into mountains and hills...
