Into the Wild

great movie, go find and read the book though if you enjoyed the movie, there are some differences

Never read the book or seen the movie but the story sounds intriguing.

that guy in the movie was in this really strange quasi-gay flick where he bit the head off of a chicken. no wonder he went into the wild.

^nice phone… I’ll be sure to check that out! :stuck_out_tongue:

:slight_smile:

i loved both the book and the movie. i never had the balls to do something like that, but i admire the fuck out of people who do.

hey I did try and do a search I swear!

^ No worries.

Just wanted to show you some other thoughts on it.
I love that book and movie.
Glad you do as well.

I tell everyone about it.

Goin’ out to the woods today!

Backpacking trip planned with some old friends on our favorite trail in northern TN. Up in the Cumberlands. “gotta get down to the Cumberland miiiiiiiiiiiines”

Into the willlllllllllllld.

I gotta get a sleeping pad, nalgene bottle, and a tarp to stay dry. I’ve misplaced all my shit!!

some of those nalgene bottles and ones like it contain some sort of estrogen like hormone in the plastic…it ends up leaching into the water or whatever you have in there. filling it with a hot liquid makes it leach out at up to 500x more than with cold liquid. even some baby bottles are made with this plastic. they started making bottles with a different kind of plastic though that does not contain this hormone. make sure to buy the right one unless you dont mind having “moobs” and people calling you bitch-tits.

shit…you posted that 8 hrs ago…i bet you have boobs by now.

hahaha, i didn’t know that. I heard there was something in the plastic that caused cancer. That explains why I have man boobs. I’ve been drinking from the same nalgene for 5 years, and it had been used for 2 or 3 before that…

Good thing I lost it finally.

shit is all this stuff about nalgenes true? I love my nalgene and have had it since college. and last week I found out that some things in Lonely Planet books were made up! my world is crashing down!

What Neck says is true…Nalgenes can disrupt your DNA, but reusing a water bottle over and over can be even worse. The thing to do: buy a metal mug. Shits’ll last epons.

EDIT: And epons and epons…

how can nalgene’s disrupt your dNa? this all sounds like a bunch of horseshit to me. i think pretty much anything gives you cancer these days…

^ it’s the ‘bisphenol A’ that they use in them, and most hard/clear plastics.

Research on laboratory animals shows that bisphenol A is an estrogenic hormone disrupter that causes reproductive damage and may lead to prostate and breast cancer in adulthood.

damn.

Yeah I saw something about that on the news. Walmart is pulling all their plastic baby bottles.

i thought if it was just if it got too hot or something.
see this is a big deal. my nalgene is my little security thing. i take it mostly everywhere. what am i gonna do with out my nalgene

i think i read somewhere that they also make bottles out of a different plastic that isnt harmful…so you could just get a new one?
