I like the whole rustic living thing. If I didn't have kids I'd live in a cabin in the woods.

Great stuff Roger. Looking forward to more.

Thoreau did. And he didn't even have Gore-tex.

Thoreau's great and I LOVE Walden, but srsly.. he was living in Emerson's backyard. Gore-tex unnecessary in such situation.
Emotionally crippled narcissist.

Thoreau had people bring him groceries.

1) Wilderness is great for a week or two, every now and again.

2) If I had to live there permanently I could.

3) Thank fuck I don't have to.

I did, for 7 years. Outhouse, wood heat and all.

No, he just had Ralph Waldo Emerson to sponge off of.

And his "self-sufficiency" involved scavenging old buildings.

Walden's greatest fallacy is that you can scavenge for a living, that EVERYONE can scavenge for a living, with nobody actually making anything in the first place.

Don't do it.

Reeducation

Woods?
I lived in the "woods" for 19 years. Now i have lived in a fucking "city" for 4 years. Both have good sides, but this whole urban-jungle-thing is pretty lame if you ask me. (you don't)

And i will add that i rule when it comes to surviving in the wilderness. Its one of my "hobbies".
I can live in the forest for weeks without anything, at -30 celcius, and keep smiling.
I find the nature more brutal than the city.

I add again, our citys are very small.

And Rev, that was well written.

And sorry if i sound like i'm trying to brag myself, not intented. Just sayin why i prefer the wild more than the city.
I am very calm

Triple Zero

without anything at -30C? wouldn't you freeze to death rather quickly?
