Pretty much classic, distilled, Zack Parsons on this one.

Really don't have much to say other than I hope we see more of this maybe a "The Great Lyricists" series?

Oh and I posted that line as the title because I lose it every time I read it.

Good work always dude!

Here's a rainforest travel journal that got published in a National Geographic magazine, once. I remember reading it when I was younger. One of the highlights:

quote:

Dec. 3 … Day three. No pigs, but plenty of bats urinating on my face each night through the mosquito netting. I lie on my back and take it. Too hot to sleep on stomach.

It ends with the guy catching a horrific exotic disease.

Seriously the Amazon is a loving nightmare not meant for mankind. A friend of mine came back from doing some research in Brazil only to have a bot fly larva pop out of her hairline a few months later. She had had a sort of oozing pimple for several months but none of the medics in the US North east could figure it out since that poo poo is insane.

Forgot this gem from the same article:

quote:

Even the pigs can kill you here. A man Rosamaría knows survived a pig attack but now has no butt. He didn’t get quite high enough in the tree, and the pigs bit it all off.
