So, I have a new favorite thing courtesy of the Discovery Channel:
The NASA Missions: When we left Earth
I DVRed the first two parts (about the Mercury and Gemini missions) on Sunday and was completely hooked in less than 10 minutes. If you thought the movie "Apollo 13" was intense, you have to see this documentary mini series that shows the actual footage from the first space missions and tells the freakin' awesome stories behind them. The next part (the Apollo missions) will air this Sunday night. I HIGHLY recommend it.
Hummm....now that I think about it, the Discovery Channel also introduced me to one of my other favorite things "Grizzly Man"

"Nothing short of extraordinary."
Variety
"One of the best nature films ever made."
Hollywood Reporter
Journey deep into the Alaskan wilderness with the amateur grizzly bear expert who lost his life in pursuit of his passion. In this acclaimed film, director Werner Herzog explores the life and death of wildlife preservationist Timothy Treadwell. Treadwell lived unarmed among the bears for thirteen summers, and filmed his adventures in the wild during his final five seasons. In October 2003, Treadwell's remains, along with those of his girlfriend, Amie Huguenard, were discovered near their campsite in Alaska's Katmai National Park and Reserve – mauled and devoured by a grizzly.
Dude, the bear totally ate him!
