It shouda been higher - Practical jokes are fun and most people are selfish and bad weather isn't annoying -- got 5 on all of those --I'd pick a love story over a cowboy flick unless they are one in the same or like Tombstone or with Woody Harrelson in it.

I actually flock to events that could warrant some focused intervention and direction. I feel very confident that I could handle just about any situation if thrown in the middle of it.

I think the adrenaline helps keep me focused

Okay, I got 215, but I'd still rather hide behind Mucluck...and I disagree with some of their answers...the bad weather in particular..."I sure hope Godzilla doesn't attack on a cloudy day!"

I was never a big fan of this guy...

and even today, I really could care less about seeing him do matches...

But that being said, I just finished reading his autobiography, for probably the one-thousandth time....

ya just gotta respect the stuff he's done in and especially for the business...

not only that, but his longetivity, especially where alotta guys dont seem to make it last for very long these days...

I've got too many "hero's" in this field... but this guy deserves it.

And the book is highly reccomended.... even if your not a wrestling fan. (come on... the dude is from Minnesota, thats gotta count for something)

Miller Lite is auctioning off on eBay a visit by former Bear Shaun Gale and former Minnesota Vikings Chris Doleman and John Randle to your home Sunday (provided it's within 75 miles of Chicago or Minneapolis and you're at least 21) to talk the fine points of football and ''Man Law'' -- as well as bring free food and drink. Proceeds go to the Jimmy V Foundation. More information is available at www.ebay.com/millerlite.

Back in the 1850Â’s, a man named James Adams became a legend.

He was a gentle man who was forced to leave civilization behind and journey deeper into the wilderness than any white man had ever been.

And though he was alone and hungry, with little hope for his own survival, he risked his life to save an orphaned bear cub.

YouÂ’ll discover how this man and the bear cub, with no knowledge of the wilderness, face danger together. How they survive. And how the bear repays the manÂ’s kindness.

YouÂ’ll discover how he learns to live in harmony with the animals of the forest. How he becomes an important part of the wilderness and how he protects and works with the animals in his valley.

He was a special man, with an incredible ability to make friends with wild animals. He was Grizzly Adams.

I'd hope so...otherwise he'd be about 150 years old :wink:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James/John_Capen_%22Grizzly%22_Adams

James/John Capen "Grizzly" Adams (October 20th, 1807–October 25th, 1860) was a famed United States outdoorsman and later a performer in P. T. Barnum's shows.

Born in Medway, Massachusetts, Adams later spent many years in the mountain ranges of the U.S. west (mainly California), living around animals and sometimes capturing them for zoos. He went to the mountains after having gone broke through a series of disappointments, and having left his wife and children behind. Adams's famous companion was a bear named "Ben" (short for Benjamin Franklin), who died in a zoo that Adams himself opened in San Francisco in the late 1850s.

Adams died at about 45 years of age of meningitis from an open head wound that resulted of an accident while training a monkey on tour with P.T. Barnum in 1860. He was buried in Bay Path Cemetery, Charlton, Massachusetts. It is said that Barnum paid for his tombstone.
