A full 26 years before the ill fated voyage of The Terror and The Erebus, Lt. John Franklin surveyed the area of the Coppermine river. This premium recreation of his 1823 account includes maps, restored engravings and plentiful evidence that this might not have been the best dude to send twice.

hashtag not sponsored but for my flavored fizzy water enjoyers, I gotta shoutout bubbl'r. it's a zero sugar fruit flavored water with a million flavors, actually tastes like what it says on the can, AND somehow doesn't have that nasty sugar substitute aftertaste. absolute witchcraft.

Wisconsin is one of two states I've lived in whose insularity leads to the kind of evolutionary cultural craziness you find in animals in the Galapagos or language in isolated settlements. This is what hath been wrought in the name of sausage
