Sorry about how
all this worked out.

1:08:04
If you guys want to go
hunting in a couple of weeks,

1:08:05
they should have
the spill cleaned up.

1:08:07
There was no toxic spill.
I can tell you that.

1:08:08
How the hell you know that?
1:08:11
Because I worked
that railroad 19 years.

1:08:26
You know what they haul
on those lines?

1:08:29
Lumber and steel.
1:08:34
Nothing but lumber and steel.
1:08:40
Now, I'm up there
at Cranberry Lake

1:08:43
with Michael and Tony,
1:08:46
and I'm trying to explain
a little of my philosophy

1:08:52
of life in the woods.
1:08:54
A couple of fellas
up from Grand Forks

1:09:00
desperate to kill something
before the weekend is over,

1:09:05
and I'm trying to explain that
1:09:06
that's not really what
hunting's all about.

1:09:10
Is this a story
that goes someplace,

1:09:13
or is this "Dewey's
Meaning of Life, Part 7"?

1:09:18
The point is, the three of us
are sitting around the campfire

1:09:22
and I'm explaining my philosophy,
1:09:26
and this Humvee pulls up,
a bunch of soldiers get out

1:09:29
and tell us to head on
back to civilization.

1:09:38
On account of the spill.
1:09:39
A toxic spill...
if there had been one...

1:09:42
they might have told us
to evacuate the area

1:09:45
and then gone on
about their business.

1:09:46
Not this bunch.
1:09:48
They just stood there
1:09:57
the whole time
it took us to strike camp,
