    Default After Alone, The Selection.

    I may just keep the TV tuned to The Selection after Alone Season 3, let's just call it a curiosity?

    I saw the preview, and it looked like the exact same show that I saw on youtube that some brits did.

    It's just starting to get interesting. Only 8 remain. From this weeks sneak preview it looks like it's time to see how well they float.

    I noticed that the U.S. Air Force is running a Special Operations Recruitment Advertisement during "The Selection".
    Personally I feel that "Footprints" is far and away the most successful Recruitment advertisement:

    Why is there so many others that have something to contribute to being left ALONE, than can relate thier experience to being selected?????

    Thank You my Brothers, for silencing those that have never stepped into the arena. Please, Y'all should continue expressing your inexperienced opinions on what it takes to be left ALONE. Now shall you prepare to face those that have been "Selected when you are challenged to be ALONE"?

    Leave the Protected Woman & Children behind when Y'all step up to this challenge. But I digress!

    As a woman who has been left alone, raising my children alone, mopping up **** water from frozen septic lines alone, keeping vehicles running in -50 temps (that's not windchill) alone, I challenge YOU to live normal every day life alone and see how well you do with that.
    Why do I live in Alaska? Because I can.

    Good Lord.....?????

    I like to nap thru "Days Of Our Lives" after lunch....So what?

    I don't feel the need to share that?....or whine, complain, and make condescending comments that no one agrees with me.....

    It is quite apparent that there are no feelings whatsoever with this one.

    I'm not sure that I know what this even means.

    Anyway, is this the show in question?



    If so...my goodness that's rough. Ice water? That's always what would do me in. Ice water. Being under for any amount of time. Forget it man.

    What's the similar show by the brits?

    The optimist expects it to change;
    The realist adjusts the sails.

    I'd start by getting the hell out of such an inhospitable area. I"ll Take NM and CO, any day, Lake City for the summer and probably Aztec, NM for the winter. There's no reason to add heat, cold and bugs to your misery. Having kids that you can't afford to raise properly is likely to condemn them to a life of poverty, welfare, or crime. One needs 1/4 million $ in the bank, per kid, these days, so as not to have to mooch off of the taxpayer. Public schools are welfare and so is Medicaid. That's mooching.

    Wow. How harsh is that? The millions of folks that graduated from public schools are all moochers? The folks unlucky enough to be disabled or elderly are suddenly moochers?
