Since the Drew Carey show has been over and Who’s Line is in reruns, what is Drew up to these days. He had his Green Screen show but that flopped. I’d like to see him get back on TV in a show at some point. I know he’s made some appearances on the Blue Collar TV, I had a video of the Big Deck Sketch about a month or so ago on The BenSpark. I liked his standup act very much and wish he was doing more of that too. I was also a fan of his book Dirty Jokes and Beer. That was pretty funny. I should read that again. I just saw it in the massive pile of books on our bookcase of unread books. I’ll get to them someday.

I love to read.
Into the Wild
At the Family Christmas Party, Allison walked away with a hardcover copy of Jon Krakauer’s book Into the Wild. The book chronicles the story of Christopher McCandless’ trek to Fairbanks Alaska where he ultimately dies in an abandoned bus. Christopher McCandless hitchhiked across the country and interacted with many people but was obsessed with living in Alaska away from people. He just walked away from his like one day and began trekking across the country. He gave away his trust fund and everything he had little buy little to live as he wanted. One of our favorite folk artist’s, Ellis Paul has a song about Christopher McCandless, called The Ballad of Chris McCandless, on his Speed of Trees CD. The book was a good read. Krakauer is most widely known for his book Into Thin Air about a disastrous and deadly climbing year on Everest.
