Breaking News! Paul Allen's Helicopter crashes!

Hey Max, I heard it's cold and snowy in Denver, do I need my big winter coat?

You need to kill, skin and then wear a polar bear. It's going to be -8 F tonight and at least -20 F tomorrow night. Oh, it was 66 F on Saturday. WTF is wrong with this place?

I've never heard of a helicopter flying to the Antarctic. I could have missed it, but I'd like to see some other article saying so. Also, I've never heard of a private yacht going there, but then you didn't say that. I HAVE read of private tour boats taking tourists to the coast for a daytime-only visit. Otherwise, it's only science missions, in year-round camps.

they've re-made some Russian icebreakers as cruise ships that go around Antarctica and land for a couple of days at a time. Though the weather down there'd be horrible for chopper ops.

That's pretty awesome. I love how it seems like he has a big pleasure boat inside of a rear bay which also is so big it has its own boats mounted to the side of it. You know you're rich when your boat has another boat inside of it, which has another boat inside of it. LOL.

That reminds me of the galantine in which a boned goose is stuffed with a boned chicken which is stuffed with a boned quail. Total overkill, but fun.

I've always had an urge to make that dish. Anyone want to come to dinner?

You're right! It's a floating Turducken! (a less fancy version of the dish you described)
