Frostbite. The winter of '24. It taught me one thing: Do as the natives do. Down to the smallest detail. Don't use nails if they used rope. Don't use steel if they used bone. It took their ancestors. Go with them. And you just might hang on to your leg.

- Right, McGregor?
- Of course.
Frostbite, winter 1924
It taught me something important: Always do
as the natives do, down to the smallest detail
Do not use nails if they use ropes,
or if they use steel if they use bone.
It took their ancestors 1000 years to learn
Listen to their advice -
- And you just might hang on to your leg.
Cheers!
I'm 32 years old.
A refrigerator salesman,
a broken marriage.
And I really, really want
to join the raft
If you only knew how scary it is
in the refrigerator industry!
