I have been in Birmingham and I can't understand the words when they speak.

So you have to guess when they are pointing which way you should go!

As you're traveling on a long trip, look for a sign advertising a golf course. Get off at the next exit, pull into the gas station/store and let the clerk give you directions to the golf course. Follow said directions to the letter and you will be seriously lost!

8). Pretend to be blind. Take a dog that has no business guiding you. —Greg

6). Follow your "natural" sense of direction. —spencer

5). Trail tiny chunks of raw hamburger to follow back when done hiking (especially effective in bear country!). —Lyn L.

4). Use the "official" map issued by the Okefenokee National National Wildlife Refuge as you attempt to canoe through the Okefenokee Swamp. —Art Denney

3).Depend on moss to grow ONLY on the north side of trees in the Olympic National Park. —Molphi

2). Rely on your brand new GPS unit to get you in and out of the woods on a 5 day trip (but forget the owners manual and spare batteries at home). —deepwoods

1). Depend on markers five feet high when seven feet of snow has fallen. —Mike Paggioli

Just do it.

I think Daniel Alicea needs to test all these points out and report back to us sometime in 2008 on their effectiveness. It's unlikely that he'd ever willingly leave his house though.

Whatever happened to the poster named Lost? Did he leave with the rest of the freaky-cons?

Was he one of the previous owners?

Wasn't his tv show cancelled?

Maybe he was found?
