I don’t know if it was just me, but I once went on a 5 day fast with just water and after the third day the appetite disappeared..

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

The true facts of this case are being suppressed. The real behind the scene facts being these folks were held captive by Bigfoot.

[WayneS]

Exactly what kind of mushrooms were these idiots looking for, anyway?

Because, I'm thinking maybe they found some...

[driftdiver]

“I wonder how many starving dogs would attack and eat their masters?”

A lot, heck pit bulls do it for a light snack on a regular basis

[golf lover]

I think these morons have been eating too many bad mushrooms. I sure hope they are charged for the cost of the search and rescue.

[MHGinTN]

I hope they kept good notes, so they’ll know which shrooms not to eat their next visit to the woods. The dog nearly paid the price!

[from occupied ga]

Nothing here contradicte the idiots/morons theory.

[allmendream]

Staying in one place?

Really?

My advice for anyone lost in the woods is to start flowing downhill. That leads to creeks, creeks lead to rivers, rivers lead to oceans - and all of the above lead to human habitation.

Staying where you are and starving, or wandering around aimlessly (people without direction tend to travel inadvertently in a circle) seem to be less of a sure thing than heading downhill.

7 nuts unless the dog and man were neutered..

[WayneS]

I just KNEW there was more to this story than was being reported...

"She's that good a dog, she'd have done it, too," Conne said. Good fricken grief.......!

[from occupied ga]

IMHO “Darwinism” will get them eventually.

One can only hope. I guessing they voted for 0.

[patriot08]

Need any further explanation?

[Grunthor]

I’ve been to Gold Beach. Pretty area.

[afraidfortherepublic]

The son.

[ColdOne]

Exactly what kind of mushrooms were these idiots looking for, anyway? Because, I'm thinking maybe they found some... BINGO!!!!

The father showing how his wife used a dead cell phone to signal the rescue helicopter.

[Beagle8U]

A Pit Bull with three nuts walks into a bar, er forest...

[martin_fierro]

Buying mushrooms at the grocery store is just so damn hard that I prefer to stomp around in the cold/dark/wet, risking getting lost and eating the wrong mushroom.

[Poison Pill]

They were 10 miles from the pacific ocean and after a week they couldn’t find it? Here’s a hint: The sun sets in that direction.
