Yeah, I saw a movie about that incident. But I didn't know that that's where the term "Debbie Downer" came from. I learn something new everyday.

Another true story. In October 1972, a plane carrying members of a rugby team from Uruguay, among others, crashed in the Andes. A group of survivors lived through the plane crash, only to face the frigid cold and snow of the mountains, avalanches and, most famously, a lack of food. As they fought for their lives for more than two months, they fed themselves by cannibalizing the bodies of those who had already died.

Now enough about that. Let's get back to the jokes...I need to LAUGH!!!!! 😊

Yes. I really liked the book and accompanying film, "Alive", about that Uruguayan rugby team. What a harrowing experience and an incredible feat by the two team members who trekked through the Andes to get help for their mates!
