I think this is my last day this time around. I might come back up to this cabin tomorrow, but my wife and my dog miss me something terribly. I don’t know which is more depressed.

In order to clear my mind at night, I’ve been watching this show called “The Colony” from the Discovery Channel. The first season is over, so you’d have to catch it on DVD or Netflix. The premise is that about 10 people are taken to an abandoned industrial district of Los Angeles and surrounded my a reality that depicts a post-apocalyptic world scenario. The group must set up a “colony” in an old warehouse and create a living environment from the resources they find around them. Food, water and even packs of marauders are their main concerns. Don’t expect too much in the way of reality. They are pretty much set up with an ideal scenario. The people involved include a doctor, ER nurse, rocket scientist, a handyman that would put McGyver to shame, ex-Croatian military and mechanical engineer, computer and mechanical specialist, martial-arts expert, ex-con/general contractor, etc. It’s interesting to watch the engineering skills of almost everyone involved. From building a shower (not the scarcity of water), to electricity, to a “battle truck” and even a radio transmitter.

It got me thinking. (And, please…. please, do not take this idea seriously and run with it.) How hilarious would it be to do a reality show where you place a bunch of Christians in the same scenario, except that the scenario is the Biblical last days being played out. Me and a friend would be willing to dress up as Moses and Elijah in order to see the response. I’ve got the beard, a little dye and bam! I guess it would be a good idea if we wanted to inflict further injury to our cause.
