This is under NSR and "current events" - actually I heard it this morning - and thought - survival instinct - pretty amazing actually.
Ah, so that's why he's blaming the whole thing on "government regulations", "feminazis" and "the liberal media". I see...
The climber is from Colorado, so he's probably a Democrat. But it happened in Utah, so it's probably the Republicans' fault.
The crappy thing about the situation is that the search started for him on the day he cut off his arm. If they would have been notified 1, 2, 3, or even 4 days earlier as to his dissapearance, the man might not have had to cut off his arm. Also, how the hell did he cut thru his bone with a pocketknife???
Which is why you posted this here AND the FFA forum? Someone is looking for attention. Oh, and I guess this means I can start the "Miss Elizabeth Is Dead" thread here now too since that's a "current event", right?
Democrats closed a trail to protect a rare mosquito species and this guy had to hump it over a mountain to get back to camp.
Of course I am looking for attention, but I didn't post this story in FFA. I guess if you consider the overdose of a 80s wrestling star "news," then it would qualify.
He couldnt afford Health Insurance so he had to do it himself. But if we had National Health, then....
After serious consideration, I've come up with a better solution than amputation. Don't go mountain climbing. It's curious how we glorify certain extremely risky activities that serve no constructive purpose.
I'm sure, if you ask the guy, he doesn't have regrets about being a hiker/climber. Some people like to take chances, may it be extreme sports, or other activities where injury or death is on the line. However, as I sometimes am one of these individuals, it is always worth the risk, even if you break something...or more than one thing. Amputation is not something that anyone would want to have to go through, especially self-amputation, but in the scope of things, it was a better option than death for him.
Back when Delta Burke was in that HBO football show, she was one hot babe. She crossed the Candy Crowley line sometime ago, however.
