Clay and Wood

(Reuters) A man who went missing five weeks ago in south-western France has been found alive in an underground cave system where he had got lost. Jean-Luc Josuat-Verges, 48, told police he survived by eating wood and clay. He was found thanks to some teenagers who had been exploring the caves, which are normally closed to the public. Mr Josuat-Verges left his home on 18 December suffering from depression and telling his wife he wanted to be alone for a time, local newspapers said. Taking a bottle of whisky he drove his jeep to an abandoned mushroom farm consisting of a vast network of underground tunnels.


Which of us has not wanted at one time or another, to pound back some whiskey and stale mushrooms while getting lost in a vast underground tunnel system surviving only on wood and clay. I know I have.

Dear Sirs,

That guy's story totally lacks credibility. What kind of an idiot would believe a story like that?

Dear Sirs,

Whenever my band gets me lost in a vast network of underground tunnels, I just sing and walk towards the booing.
