Yeah on a phone from a snow cave on Mt. Hood! He has probably peeled down the undies and is waltzing with Ginger Rogers by now ヅ

At first you start shivering uncontrollably.  The blood leaves your hands and feet to slow the cooling.  ((My jaw starts to hurt and I don't talk so good.)Maybe just me.) you start slurring words and get very clumsy and your brain gets 'foggy'. You get tired and want to lay down.  After a while you feel very hot and may even start to remove your clothes.  This may sound crazy but you can't think very good.  If no one is around you are in deep trouble.  If you are found alive it is good to warm up slowly, like not right next to a fire but huddling with a warm person or inside a house but not too hot.

Wish I had thought of that yearsss ago! Talk a babe into going hiking in the late fall. Go to a mountain range she is unfamiliar with but you are. Get her good andlost and when the shivering and toof chattering starts say, "our only hope is to take turns spooning". "No, thats just a twig. I forgot to shake out the sleeping bag first". ヅ
