HELEN - An ex-Marine used a whole lot of bravery and a little bit of luck in a harrowing encounter with a black bear.


A Marine named Helen would have to be a tough SOB.

So a bear was dropping a log in the woods when some guys kills it? I better read the article.

A bear died because some idiot didn't store his food properly. And he's a hero, Smitty? Even the marine/father feels bad about it.

People come into bear's house with food.
Bear accepts offer of goodies.
Dumbass kid tells bear it's not for him.
Bear says, "hey, well why did you bring it here then?"
Kid says, "Oh Noes, dad. What do I do?"
Dad says, "Stay away from my boy and all that food I brought into your house."

The only commendation I can offer the guy is that he managed to protect his son with what nature had available.

They can use logs, but they better not start wearing my pajamas.

Why does it matter that he used to be a Marine?

That's right Colbert, Marines can handle those pussy bear attacks.

Guy threw a log and got lucky.


The bobcat story is the crazy one...

Hey Subby, there are no "ex" Marines. Just, Marines. Ask one if he's an "ex"-Marine...then duck.

"I got a shovel and I tried to scare it," said Logan.

Retarded.

But Logan was the one who ended up getting scared...

Retarded writing.

"(I) threw it at it and it happened to hit the bear in the head and I thought it just knocked it out but it actually ended up killing the bear," said Chris.

Retarded talking.

This is Christ we're talking about here. I could've laid some Holy Trinity shiat but the log was convenient.
 
2007-06-21 10:10:58 AM  
Wow. That's flat out badass.

Logs? Feh.
On Dilbia, the bears have guns.

I came in here to say what bigpeeler said. Well, most of it anyway.
 
2007-06-21 10:12:25 AM  
It was a black bear. Aside from attacking one of her cubs, you have to work HARD to piss off a black bear enough to have it come after you.

Not a HERO.

/used to camp ALL the time with black bears all over the place in the Adirondacks.

Was going there for the 4th...never mind.

Finally, empirical evidence that contradicts the conjecture that log(bear) is undefined for large values of bear.

Yeah, that's what I thought was so bizarre about the black bear killing an 11 yr old in his tent a few days ago. It's a farking black bear. They don't do that. Except that one apparently...

bigpeeler-"Hey Subby, there are no "ex" Marines. Just, Marines. Ask one if he's an "ex"-Marine...then duck."

You're right about that. I was married to one and had dated one. Will NEVER allow that to happen again. Basically...,not to piss anybody off, but Marines, although good people, have a major ego. That's why there aren't any ex-Marine's. They can't let go of the fact they were once "The best, of the best, of the best."

If you're out of logs, Peyton Mannings work really good, too

I'm a log, so obviously I'm getting a kick out of these replies!
 
2007-06-21 10:20:54 AM  
Great. Now we're killing bears that are minorities.

Profiling at its' worst!! When will it end???

2007-06-21 10:20:54 AM  
Some bears have dens full of fully automatic weapons, so BEWARE
 
2007-06-21 10:21:11 AM  
Shouldn't that be former Marine.
Ex implies dishonorable discharge.
Or just Marine, since I don't think they consider themselves former. EVER.

"Norcross resident Christ Everhart took his three boys on their first camping trip to the Chattahoochee National Forest last weekend..

Great. Now Jesus is killing bears.

/That's a funny, funny lack of editing.

How he got into my pajamas I don't - oh wait you said bear. Never mind.
