Thumbs down NO sympathy

for the Oregonian family that got lost in the mountains when looking for the ocean.... pray for this - pray for that...

why dont you bozo's pray that one of ya will get a cell phone for christmas. or maybe a gps unit along with a map.
maybe clean the boogers out of your noses so you can smell the ocean instead of pine trees.

Thumbs up Good Samaritan

No cell phone service in that area and they were buried in 4 ft of snow.

Glad they made it out of there

Good health and family

I've learned something from this: If I ever buy an RV I'm putting a CB in it.

I have one in mine, the thing is great. Plus listening to the truckers in traffic is a riot.

I am pretty sure the ocean is down hill not up hill.

There is zip for cell signal at Race Point! You can see Plymouth from there. Cell phones aren't all that reliable. Neither is common sense...Glad they're alive.

All you'll ever need to know about politics can be learned over a CB on a busy highway.

Beer is the reason we get up each afternoon.
