Re: [HOE] Last Words

["Jeff Shoffner" <shoffner@usit.net>]

Are you kidding?  I LOVE to hear what dumb things players do...  The guy
falling down a hole reminds me of a true story.  Some friends of mine are
out spelunking with a newbie.  They get to a cliff side in the cave, set up
the rope, & the leader wraps the rope around one arm, around his waist, &
around the other arm to test the anchor.  While doing this, he tells the
newbie, "Okay, now don't sweat this; this is easy..." & slips, falling
twenty feet to the bottom.  (Fortunately, he had the rope wrapped around
both arms, & this acted like a half-a$$ed descender, so he just got a little
rope burn.) The crew hear the **ZzZZZZzzzzzzz!!!!* of him going down the
rope, & *boom!*...... "Ow....."  My friend, the joker, says, "Martin, you
okay?"  "Yeah...." turns to the newbie, "Okay!  Your turn!"  Hahahahah!!
