So my husband is sitting at the computer after everyone had left last night and I am on the couch with the kids. My husband bursts out in hysterics and says “you’ve got to come see this.”

He is on your site (via my blog, “Who is this iridesnow?”) and is watching this video.

To answer your question, yes this guy is for real. We have watched this show once before and have seen him bury himself in sand to keep cool, eat some live spiders and other nasty ass things crawling on the sand. He then peed on himself (they showed the stream, very powerful) and clothes to keep cool in the desert and then wrapped the clothes on his head.

No TV? That is such a California thing. So you have to sit at your computer to watch porn?

At least your husband recognizes a quality blog post, even when you’re not the subject. But, to be fair, this particular video is probably something only guys can truly appreciate, since you women were sitting at home painting your nails while we men were out stealing old zebra carcasses from lions.

I do have a television set. A nice one, in fact, a 42 inch Sony Bravia LCD. I just don’t have cable or satellite. Cable is not offered where I live. I used to have satellite, but cancelled it a couple years ago when iTunes started selling tv shows.

Why would I have to sit at my computer to watch porn? You just described a tv program with a guy who wears pee-soaked clothing on his head!

I guess you are running for the tissue now? Is there a word for giving yourself a Golden Shower, Mr. Vocabulary?

Yes, pretencious.
