Mushrooms
travelor-im just curious about your collecting of amanita muscaria mushrooms. all my books designate them (both subspecies) as being very toxic. i was curious because you mentioned value (allways after a buck). i just pulled up & destroyed 20+ lbs. of them because the dogs were playing with them in my yard. i know that there are tons of them (the red ones) within 3 miles of where im sitting.

A group of country friends from the Cumberland Baptist Church wanted to get
together on a regular basis, socialize, and play games.
The lady of the house was to prepare the meal. When it came time for Dick and
Wilma to be the hosts - Wilma wanted to outdo all the others. Wilma decided to
have mushroom-smothered steak. But, mushrooms are expensive.
She then told her husband, 'No mushrooms. They are too high.'
He said, 'Why don't you go down in the pasture and pick some of those mushrooms?
There are plenty in the creek bed.'
She said, 'No, some wild mushrooms are poison.' He said, 'Well, I see varmints
eating them and they're OK.' So - Wilma decided to give it a try.
She picked a bunch, washed, sliced, and diced them for her smothered steak.
Then she went out on the back porch and gave Tessie (the yard dog) a double
handful. Ol' Tessie ate every bite.
All morning long, Wilma watched Ol' Tessie and the wild mushrooms didn't seem to
affect him, so she decided to use them. The meal was a great success, and Wilma
even hired a helper lady from town to help her serve.
She had on a white apron and a fancy little cap on her head. After everyone had
finished, they relaxed, socialized, and played 42 & Mexican dominoes.
About then, the helper lady from town came in and whispered in Wilma's ear. She
said, 'Ms. Wilma, Ol' Tessie just died.' Wilma went into hysterics. After she
finally calmed down, she called the doctor and told him what had happened.
The doctor said, 'That's bad, but I think we can take care of it. I will call for an
ambulance and I will be there as quick as possible. We'll give everyone enemas and
we will pump out everyone's stomach. Everything will be fine. Just keep them calm.'
Soon they could hear the siren as the ambulance was coming down the road.
The EMTs & the doctor had their suitcases, syringes, and a stomach pump.
One by one, they took each person into the bathroom, gave them an enema, and pumped
out their stomach. After the last one was finished, the doctor came out and said, 'I
think everything will be fine now,' and he left.
They were all looking pretty weak sitting around the living room, and about this time,
the helper lady came in and said, 'You know, that fellow that ran over Ol' Tessie never even stopped!!'
