Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You know a REALLY bad place to go, because of the high death rate?
Bed.
That's a more pleasing Snopesing than most though. (And sounds like a kind of fun contest.)

Um. Just last week, in fact. A couple got too close to a bear sow and her cubs.

Yes, three people forwarded me that article. Very helpful.
I'm glad that photo wasn't real. It frightened me. Especially since I heard a snuffling growly sound outside right about when I was looking at it. It was probably just a local canine roaming around, but dang, bad timing.
I've woken to bears, raccoons, skunks and unidentified sniffing around the tent. My parents have a classic story of camping in the Sierras in the 60, waking to a cast iron pan scoured down to the iron (seasoning removed a la bear tongue) and bearprints all around.
going to Yellowstone imminently
Make the most of it! I got to visit there for a couple of days in the late summer of 2008. I enjoyed it immensely, but it wasn't enough time.
THIS IS WHY I DO NOT CAMP.
Make the most of it!
I intend to! It's my Christmas present from my sister--2 to 10 days in one or more National Parks in the lower 48. I chose Yellowstone/Grand Teton for a week since she hadn't been to either. I went to Yellowstone about 20 years ago on a trip through Montana and Wyoming with my Dad, but we didn't go into Grand Teton even though we went to Jackson Hole (my dad wasn't a hiker).
