Man will lose fingers and toes to amputation over frosty chatroom love affair

travel — by TDavid @ 9:27 pm PST

Who says internet chatrooms aren’t worth losing all your fingers and toes? Not Charles Gonsoulin, anyway, who took an unwise soujourn into -15 F degrees climate.

A Los Angeles man who sneaked into Canada in February to see his Internet girlfriend will be deported — minus all his fingers and some of his toes, the Winnipeg Sun newspaper reported Tuesday. Charles Gonsoulin, 41, will have the fingers and toes amputated because of severe frostbite suffered during a 100-hour trek from Pembina, North Dakota, across the border to Emerson, Manitoba…

Gonsoulin couldn’t legally enter Canada because he was convicted of robbing a Pizza Hut in 1984, so he chose a more frigid path to bridging true online love. Another “c” to go along with chatrooms: “convicts.” Hmm.
