Sounds interesting though. Maybe when I have a bit less work load (2 attorney office is up to over 2100 criminal cases this year), and stop bleeding out cash for medical matters, automotive failures, and cell phone replacement (old one stopped ringing reliably) ... I might consider getting it.
Between new, admittedly industrial strength, snow shoes for the car (first time with Nokians)... a new heavy-duty 800+ CCA battery (Interstate) to replace the dead original 625 CCA unit ... and an oil change out to 0-20 Synthetic for wintertime, probably spent over $1,100.
However, I'm now ready to roll through whatever Winter throws my way.
I'd rather you were safe than entertained. Both is preferable of course, but safe and sound first. =)
Cave bears are my new nemesis. So difficult to sneak up on (especially when I'm just running around willy nilly and not actually in stealth
), they hit poor Eth like a freight train. I finally got the quest done so the Jarl trusts me, was heading back to turn it in, seeing if I could find this damned stone that was on the map but I couldn't find a path to it when a cave bear jumped out at me. It charged, mauled me, I did my unrelenting force shout and apparently blew it right off the edge of the mountain. I go down to loot it (which was how I needed to go to get to the stone anyway) and some guy labeled "Fugitive" ran up to me, gave me a sword, told me he'll kill me if I double cross him and then ran off in stealth. I've gotten used to the damned courier running up to me, but that fugitive was darned lucky I didn't have the bow at the ready. Don't tell me where this little bit leads! I want to find out on my own since it was just such odd timing. =)
Intolerant monkey.
