As you can see, signatures are only trickling in for the pee petition.

And even if they reach the signature goal, President Obama is soon on his way home from Alaska and hung out with survivalist Bear Grylls on Tuesday.

A release from NBC said Obama trekked through the wilderness with Grylls and would “receive a crash course in survival techniques” from him for a future episode of “Running Wild With Bear Grylls.”

In fact, he was taking selfies with Grylls.
