And the funny thing is, as much as I love these rolley polley real life cartoon characters, I can’t go see them at the zoo. Don’t know what it is but the Zoo just creeps me out. (sorry to all the Zoo Keepers)
I have a plan though. I’m going to go see them (IRL) in real life. Call it a “bucket list” if you like, but I will someday hop on my bike, and ride to Alaska (no joke). The trip is almost 8,000 miles there and back. No polished highways, it’s camping and dirt roads. Bring what gas you need because gas stations are few and far between.

Here’s the Thing:
Believe in the theory of Global Warming or not, is there really any harm in making an effort to reduce greenhouse gases, switching to greener cars, and driving the technology for alternative energy sources?
Besides, if I get on my bike and ride 3,570 miles one way just to see a bunch of barren rocks I’m going to be more than a little upset.
