Just remember the old joke about the two guys running from an enraged bear. "I don't have to run faster than the bear, just faster than you". :D:

BTW that's the generic you, not anyone in particular. ;)

That's like a running backpacker's joke in Yellowstone: "You don't need to be able to outrun a bear, you just need to be able to outrun the slowest guy in your group!" :p:

You know, back in the old days, they used to say that if you ran into a bear in the woods, you should climb a tree. Now, they know that's not a great idea. You see, a black bear will just climb up the tree after you to eat you. A griz will just knock the tree down and eat you!

I heard that from my cousin who has been a ranger naturalist for several decades. He said this is how to tell a black bear from a grizzly. You run up and slap him across the muzzle, and then climb a tree. If it comes up after you, its a Black Bear. And if it shakes you down it's a Grizzly. Simple, right? :D:

The bear story kinda works in Hawaii but with a fishy bent. If you're out surfing and get bit by a shark, you'll be able to tell what kind it is based on what happens next. If it leaves, it's a tiger 'cause they don't like the taste of humans. If it comes back for more, it's a hammerhead.

i'm not a professional or anything, but from what i understand, at that point, not even CPR would help. but if he died after he got off the ride, it might have been easier. because even if his heart stops beating, the brain lives 4 to 6 minutes before you lose brain cells. so if you got him into a freezer that's very, very cold, you could preserve him for awhile until you find someone who would be willing to do a heart transplant (have to be same day though) and then you'd have to find someone who could do a fast enough heart transplant.

hell, not even any of that would be likely. i don't know if Disney has freezers cold enough, but even if they did i doubt you'd find a willing heart donor, or someone capable of doing a transplant in a few short minutes. even if that happened, he might have lost too many brain cells that he'd be as intelligent as the average 5 year old.

They keep Walt in the coldest freezer, there is no room for a guy who needs an instantaneous heart transplant! :twisted: ;)

Funny!! DW was not amused when we were hiking in Alaska, I got her a "bear bell" for her hiking boots, she asked me what it was for, and I told her it helped the bear figure out where lunch was!! (hehehehe)

What happened to the "fish are our friends, not food?" that dosn't apply to humans I guess!!

Hmmmm

BW has a Beauty at home....

He feels at home in the Animal Kingdom....

Are you suggesting that BW is a Beast? :D:

(runs, ducking the rain of blunt objects being tossed at him)

Randy

No need to run, I freely admit it.

And so does my Beauty! :D: :D: :D:
