Are the bodies still warm, because I might just pile them all up and sleep inside the pile till dawn.

Survival Quiz/Scenario

How dare you question my integrity, puppet that's been aged for the last 5 months. But I'll play along.

 

When 9/11 happened the news said over and over that planes had to file flight plans. If you crash in northern Minnesota you're maybe 50 miles from other people. Someone is going to notice and you won't have to wait long for a search party to be sent out. Therefore your main worry is staying warm. I've seen on countless tv shows that if you're lost in the woods, or your car breaks down on a deserted highway, or whatever, you should stay put and wait for help to find you. Very few people have reached such a high level of not giving a shit, like I have, that it's become a state of zen, so if you survived a plane crash you will most likely be in shock. Eating something will help with that.

 

Mythbusters had a show about starting a fire without matches. One of the ways involved steel wool and another was polishing the bottom of a Coke can with chocolate to make it shiny. That explains the lighter, steel wool, chocolate, and maybe shortening lid.

The extra clothes is obvious.

Chocolate is the only thing to eat. Alcohol will dehydrate you.

I remember seeing an episode of The Six Million Dollar Man (or another show) as a kid where Oscar signaled a plane with a mirror. I've seen that talked about on other shows about being stuck in the forest or whatever. Bear Grylls probably did it in a show. The only thing you can use as a mirror is the shortening lid. Mythbusters showed that you can polish it with chocolate. I know from working on cars that steel wool can polish metal.

 

Or maybe I searched for "You have just crash-landed in the woods of northern Minnesota and southern Manitoba. It is 11:32 A.M. in mid-January." (without the quotes) in Startpage and clicked on the first link.

 

You'll never know.

When I was a kid the town we lived in ended a certain street. None of us would go past it. It's like it was another country or something. One day I rode my bike 8 blocks past it to the next major street that had a bunch of stores. The next day at school, I told the other kids. They acted like I explored deepest, darkest Africa. The teacher found out and yelled at me. She said I could've gotten abducted and killed. I told her it took me 5 minutes to get back but it didn't matter. I was going to die. Talk about beating the life out of a kid.

Once, when I was about 17 years old, I convinced some friends staying at our cottage that it would be a great idea to take off into the woods in a random direction in the middle of the night, stop, get liquored up and smoke a succession of huge joints, then try to find our way back. We finally got out about a mile from where we started, finding the road just before shit got real. We had no survival gear except a couple of flash lights, a massive stash of marijuana, and a random collection of Zippos. Good times. :)

Omg. My father was too coked out to notice or care. Besides, we were staying in a shack adjacent to the main property, because I refused to be anywhere near his whore of a girlfriend, so I doubt he knew anything we were up to. We also "borrowed" the neighbor's old paddle boat and sank it. It's a wonder my dad didn't catch more flack for our antics. Then again... People generally thought twice before messing with the man, so I guess the guy stewed in silence. I mean, he must have known we were the culprits. We weren't exactly inconspicuous. xD
