I think about these things ...

once i was on this ridge in Northern BC - and i wasn't sure if i could go on or ... then an eagle soared BELOW me between some jagged peaks ... I stopped for a snack to collect myself - I tried to think of the most positive thing i could - it was nearly 3PM so I thought "If I fall my blood soaked crumpled body will only be on the rocks for a couple of hours before the helicopter comes for me - the animals won't even have time to scavenge me" was the best i could come up with.

Hahahahaaa. Well it's important to look good when you're dead.

I recall visiting a castle in Germany, following the crowd as they walked up a very narrow spiral staircase and not wondering why nobody was coming down it. Finding myself on the roof of the castle, and that the exit was about 20M away (down another spiral staircase) I crawled on my hands and knees to reach it and didn't give a hoot that two dozen or so people were watchinng my antics.

Exactly - and be dead in a cool spot - not ND.

Scary Goph. Was it on the outside of the structure ?

Gopher · Mar 12 09 12:28

Yes, and my hands have just broken out into a sweat as I relive it.

Oh NO ! This wouldn't work for me either.

*the question is.....did you look good ?

A man has to do what a man has to do.
Even if it isn't all that manly....

You weren't wearing laderhosen (sp?) at the time were you??

Gopher · Mar 12 09 12:34

I no longer recall what sort of brown trousers I was wearing.

Ah Minerva, you're so very wise.
