  • 3 Men on a Hike

    Three men were hiking through a forest when they came upon a large raging, Violent river.
    Needing to get to the other side, the first man prayed: 'God, please give me the strength to cross the river.'

    Poof! .. God gave him big arms and strong legs and he was able to swim across in about 2 hours, having almost drowned twice.

    After witnessing that, the second man prayed: 'God, please give me strength and the tools to cross the river'

    Poof! .. God gave him a rowboat and strong arms and strong legs and he was able to row across in about an hour after almost capsizing once.

    Seeing what happened to the first two men, the third man prayed: 'God, please give me the strength, the tools and the intelligence to cross the river'

    Poof! .. He was turned into a woman. She checked the map, hiked one hundred yards up stream and walked across the bridge.

    LOL!

    Reminds me of a story...

    We went to a remote strange-to-us small town. We had made hotel reservations. Since it was about 5 hrs from home, by the time we hit town, it was my turn to drive.

    We drove around for 15 minutes, couldn't find the hotel. I saw an open 7-11 store and pulled in. I parked in front and looked at Skyowl. He said, "What?" I said, "Go ask where it is!". He said, "I'M not lost, YOU go ask!" :p Bastiches, the lot of them!

      I'm a guy, but I never understood the whole "asking for directions" thing. What's the big deal? Guys, repeat after me, "Excuse me, obviously I have never been here in my life, and considering your roads are terribly confusing, I'd like to know the easiest route to get to (insert place here)."
      When they respond, simply say, "Thank you very much, I'll talk to the next gas station attendant I get to after I realize your directions were too frigging confusing."

            Most of the maps we use don't have hotels on them ;).

              Haha, I keep hotels.com on speed dial. :D I call them for directions most of the time. It usually ends up being a 3-way conversation with the staff at the hotel. :rolleyes:

                Asking for directions usually gets one lost! let me explain... Ok all ya hafta do is take this err road past the 2nd watermelon patch on the left, now ya don't want the 1st road ya come to, no! That'll take ya to dead mans bridge. you want the third dirt road on the right! yea, that's it, then all ya gotta do is head down ther for about 30 blocks. Not, of course, you won't have range on yer phones out that'r way but never mind the formalities, when ya see the place the culvert used to be, that's where ya should turn to get to....


                Simple answer, Plan ahead!

                      Techno WIN!

                      Okay. Just came back from New Jersey. Took the Owl's Garmin with me. :D

                      I'll never go TDY without it again! It guided me through 60 miles of 3 interstate changes and a state route to get to my hotel :eek:. Guided me to another hotel where I was meeting two others. Guided me to a CVS pharmacy when I wanted water. Guided me to where I could turn in my rental car when the renting location wasn't open in time for my flight home.

                      My first testing job was of early GPS at the Electronic Proving Ground. The things weighed 40 lbs then! :p

                      I didn't have to stop once to ask directions and didn't have a map with me. RAWR!!!

                        I noticed this thread was started by Unswydd, has anyone heard from her? I remember her saying that she, and a friend were going backpacking out west , but that seems like quite awhile back. And I know that she was having trouble getting online for various reasons , but she was updating occasionally.

                            I was down in Lost Wages for work last year and was using my GPS to get me to a meeting place. The GPS said "Make a U-Turn" in a sweet female voice. So I did.. Sky lit up with red and blue lights so I pull over. Cop comes up and says "Would you mind tellin me why you made a U-Turn at that stoplight?" I told him "Cause my GPS told me to..." He never even asked for my Drivers license...

                              I have to remember that excuse. When I was stationed at LeJeune(NC) I would get hit in Virginia about once a month heading to NY. Got very expensive.
