    Thought of the Day #58

    Posted by Grateful on Sunday, June 07, 2009 @ 03:01 PM  

    There is a natural disaster headed your way. You get four standard sized canvas grocery totes to fill with valuables and provisions to bring with you to a safe place. What would you put into your four bags and why? Sheesh, who messes with valuables? If I don't have to put the kids and animals in the bags, then I guess i would grab the following: extra warm, sturdy clothes, soap, a pot, batteries, matches in a plastic bag, water pills(the kind that make it potable), flashlights, guns n bullets, seeds, the Bible, Survival guide, blankets, tarp, two really good knives, carmex, some canned food...tuna, beans, rice...are my bags full yet? Do I get to bring a horse to carry it all? :) Salt and pepper would be nice, if there is room.

    That's really a pretty good list. I suspect your bags might be a bit over full, but you might want to balance a few rolls of TP on the top. I've never had great success with leavesThinking

    MS, combined with frequent walks up the mountain have given me a lot of experience with leaves of all kinds. From my experience, young maple leaves are a luxury, ferns will do in a pinch, and nettles are to be avoided at all costs.

    A couple of other leaves to avoid are poison oak and the Evergreen black berry. On the other hand anyone who would pump up a boat head to max geyser pressure probably shouldn't even worry about leaves. Compared to the geyser one small daily poop would hardly be noticable.Big Grin

    The rules say you can't pump it into the water. There is nothing to suggest you can't shoot it into the air.
