People need to stop being so fking afraid of anything that moves.

A dude in the woods isn't going to attack. He's just watching birds or working on the NH48 too. The attacker is the super friendly neighbor or your dad's drinking buddy or a partner.

A bear isn't something to make a fuss about either. Black bears leave you be while they're busy eating dandelions or scratching a tree, and as long as you don't act like food a grizzly isn't going to treat you like food either.

The REAL threat is sitting on your @ss inside all day every day not soaking up the sun, breathing in oxygen (in the woods, it's on tap!), or connecting to the world. Not living.

(I say from a library computer despite it being a gorgeous overcast 50dF when I should be at some violent remote waterfall right now )
