They Went To Save The Planet – And Got Drunk Instead

Posted on August 7, 2016 by tonyheller

The ship of fools went to the Arctic to prove there wasn’t any ice. Their initial entrance to the Arctic has been blocked by ice for six weeks, so now they are sitting around in a sheltered cove getting drunk. Eight references to vodka and one more to “lunch was boozy” yesterday.

Fascinating how their mighty cause has devolved to a druken parody. They are so hidebound, they don’t even realize the optics of posting constant blog entries about getting drunk.

I wonder if teachers were planning on reading blog entries of this “expedition” to their classes until it turned to “Fear and Loathing in Murmansk”.

I don’t see this ending well. I hope the vodka doesn’t impair their ability to give up and head back before they’re trapped by ice. Sure, this has been entertaining but I don’t want anyone to get hurt.
