Ignorance is Not Bliss
A few years ago I remember reading in the paper about two men trapped in a cabin by a blizzard. It was so bad they knew they would be trapped for several weeks.
They had enough food in the cabin to last, but only enough water to last two days if shared equally. They decided to draw straws to see who would live and who would die so that the other could be saved.
The one with the short straw was murdered by the guy who got the long straw.
Needless to say, Ignorance is not bliss.
lol They could have melted the snow , and drank it. Set a trap for a bird or rabbit. These two men were just ignorant. But good story. Off into the bliss I got with my knowledge.
It was cold blooded murder. The killer musta listened to the forecast ahead of time and set the whole thing up so he could use the blizzard as an excuse. 😉

Ironically all they needed to do was slip those straws through any crack in the wall, into the snow outside, and draw in the water.
Yeah, I’ve been stuck without water in a massive snow storm before and I just melted snow. It doesn’t take a genius to figure that out.
OMG! Is that a true story?
