I ordered a copy the other day, I'll confirm its awesomeness when it comes. Probably a bad decision on my part, my company has been slashing benefits and otherwise being unpleasant towards employees lately...I don't need any more urges to do something crazy here.

I had to laugh at the guy in the Trailer that goes, "There's the idiot!" Seems a common reaction from some people when you mention backpacking.
I will agree, just watching the trailer got me thinking about Europe. Now I have to go play poker to make enough to travel to Europe. Bah... definitely don't need to watch the whole dvd.

Just ordered! After hearing about the contest, I started wondering if it would just be for peeps who purchased the vid? And I could start writing my essay now. Anyone want to B&P with me, just let me know.

Now I want to watch this. How much is it? I need to check my bank account.
EDIT:
FIFTEEN?! That's not expensive at ALL.
I'm buying it.
I say we have a traveling TP Map for Saturday DVD. We mail it forward and each person writes something about it. It'd be like a chain letter, but cooler.
Maybe I've read too many weird books O_o
