Don't drink the water 
2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance
Victor got a little drunk. So he and his girlfriend Candance took a little drive down a mining road. They turned on some tunes in their truck to make it more enjoyable.
They Vic decided that he wanted to take a hike in the desert. So he grabbed a beer and headed off while Candance took a nap in the truck. Did I mention it was 105 degrees out? No? Well it was 105 degrees out. After consuming the beer, Vic had nothing left to drink, and promptly expired from the dehydration of the heat and alcohol.
Candance tried to look for him, but couldn't find him. So then she tried to get help. But the radio had been left on, so the battery was dead. She walked down to a slightly more major road and put out a "help" sign.
Four days later, she was discovered severely dehydrated, but still alive. Alas, Vic was found dead 1/2 mile from the truck.
Wandering in the desert in the 105 degree sun without water is not advised. It was not recorded on whether he was trying to pass on his genes with Candance before heading into the desert, but he certainly won't get a second chance. Submitted on 09/27/2002
