Just saw some sort of dead animal on 59 Could be a dog. Feral dogs can carry rabies. Really dodged a bullet there. Keep on heading to 10.

Make sure to take a pic if you get all four wheels off the pavement at some point, even if only by a few feet. Then Danny boy will have nothing on you.


I'm pretty sure that all of I-10 in Louisiana counts as off road by Texas Road standards, doesn't it?


If you think Louisiana is bad, wait until you get to Mississippi!

I took an online course through Emory on the ebola outbreak. They traced the outbreak back to a little boy who played inside a hollowed out tree near his home-bats nested or whatever bats do, up inside the tree and were the source.


Correct. In Guinea.

we just trekked up Mount Bonnell f the first time. TIL that Custer was based in Austin w the Sixth Cav... how did I not know this before?

also, no kids begging but plenty of tourists asking to have their pictures taken and at least one hungry and/or tired toddler - so glad we're past that beat down in our family

in true explorer fashion we followed a winding road up to The Oasis and we are now enjoying a native drink- margaritas

Made it through Tuscaloosa this past weekend. All that dust in the quad during the tailgating reminded me of being on the African plains - just like ol' dewshboy.

So...is he dead yet?

That rattling sound at the first? I thought it was going to be African drums.

I've got a handyman jack mounted on my roof rack that rattles around.

in that 6 minute clip, you've been offroad more than Dan. And you sat still half the time.

Oh, and what was that rattle?

If he had only waited until after the election, he could have taken all the democrats with him.

So did this clown ever get off the pavement, or still just following the highway and going slow and checking out everything he can along the way to stall so he can avoid the more dangerous regions?

So uninspiring and such a let down. If I had known this earlier, I would have picked a more reasonable death date...probably in January instead of Aug 22.

Why did he need to spend so much money outfitting his Jeep if he is just "backroading"? Hell, he could have done everything he has done so far in a Ferrari.

Forgive my ignorance, but are there actually a continuous system of paved roads that will get him all the way around the continent?

Because it hasn't been worth updating due to the D'bags lack of activity.

Here are the few that are still "alive" in the death pool:

November 25 - TexasAggie_02
December 6 - htxag09
December 31 - Kenneth_2003
January 5 - Bitter Old Man

Survives - powerbelly51, BenderRodriguez, mathguy86, Mr. McGibblets

This is the final 8. Half think he will die, half think he'll live. I think at this point, we are all hoping for the former.
