Erik,

The men who were stranded in Yosemite were rescued. When the news interviewed one of the wives, she said that the men worried about not getting home to their wives. The video clip quickly cut after that comment, probably because her next comment was, "Because he knew I'd be bitching cuz his punk ass wasn't home on time!"

Yeah, SUUUUUUURE that's what they were thinking! They are freezing cold, no food, don't know if they will ever be found, and they're worried about not getting home to their wives! Right! If that were true, it's because of what I said above. But, I don't believe it. I think the likelihood of them thinking about their wives is as likely as them thinking about eating the ass of the first one to die.

Stacey,

If I were trapped in the wilderness I, of course, would be first worrying about getting home to you. But seriously, if I were trapped in the wilderness my top 5 worries would be in the following order:

1) How long will the cooler of beer stay cold?
2) Can I take this opportunity to kill someone in the group and make it look like an accident?
3) Is there anyone looking to kill me?
4) What porno am I missing on the web while stranded in the wilderness?
5) Will Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen ever find true love?

I think this reflects probably most people's top priorities in such a situation. But, I actually suspect these people were in Vegas the whole time and just told their spouse's they were hiking. Then when the storm hit they saw it as the perfect opportunity to turn what would likely be a homecoming filled with toasters and dishware being hurled at their head into one in which they are showered with love and affection due to their "brush with death". Clever.
