Donner Party of Seven, Your Table Is Ready

Doc is up to his usual insanely funny stuff over at his blog. The Donner Party, a group of pioneers caught at Donner Pass in horrific winter storms, tells the story of how they nearly starved to death, until they resorted to human cannibalism. It seems from everyone I ever knew who grew up in California, that this was only interesting story they ever learned in mandatory California History class. Rather like getting stuck in a class on The Complete Works of John Milton and finding they gave you a Stephen King novel to read all of a sudden. Whoa!

Don't miss Doc's suggestion -- talk about reality tv! Get your TV dinners heated up and settle in for a delicious night of viewing.
