RE: Weekend-engagement topic week 45: Only three items [answer and win hive]

in Weekend Experiences4 years ago

Good answer and considering it's you I expect it; That you're prepared and have put some thought into it. What I find really interesting is the very specific nature of this topic in respect of the individual, location and logistics around transportation. For me personally I could hook up my camper trailer to my Landcruiser, grab some go-bags and stuff, firearms and reloading equipment and probably live like that for a long time...Others...Well, they probably can't. It's a very personal thing but at the end of the day preparedness is something we should all be looking into simply for our general well-being and peace of mind. Bad things happen.

I think only one other person mentioned seeds, fast-growing edible things. It's a really good idea and considering they take up so little room it makes a lot of sense.

I'll be honest, I love this topic, thinking and discussing it as no matter how experienced I feel I am I always learn something and it's those of us who are open to learning that will hold the most information. I've done a few things in life, had some specific training and experience that places me in good stead in this regard, the survival aspect...Not everyone gets that chance, but it never fails to boggle my noggin when I see people have literally no plan and no clue...No care factor.

I really enjoyed the topic. I have spent a lot of time building a place here where I can 'bug-in' through whatever the world throws at me, and it worked great for the recent pandemic. I haven't given much thought the past few years to a concrete plan about what I would do if I was forced out of my fortress. As a guy who's pretty comfortable on foot in the woods, I've always just figured I could improvise if it came to that. This was a great mental exercise for me, and today I'm going to spend some time in the woods with more of an eye for an evade-and-ambush route out!

Thanks for the great topic, and thanks to @dandays for encouraging me to give a closer look to the engagement posts!

Nice to see you here dude! Figures you come by the only weekend I was unable to attend.

Rolling DeWalt chest, what's the matter? Don't trust made in USA powertools? 🤔

Member how I was saying I like to hang out at The Weekend and I just drop by most everyone's comment and drop sardonic type one-liners? Had I made it by the weekend over the weekend, your response would've went something like this:

Did you miss the part about 150 words or less or are you just a self centered bastard who doesn't think about anything other than his tool?

You've read my posts, I can barely say hello in 150 words or less!

Yes, I am that self centered. It all started when they told me the universe was infinite, and I realized that means that I am in fact at the center of the universe.

I'm sure I'll be back for more of these, opportunity for sardonic one-liners shall abound. I'm looking forward to it!

You've read my posts..

I've skimmed a few at best Mr Self Centered.

This.. I love it, The Weekend they just fly like this, ain't it fuckin great?!

Skimmed? SKIMMED? You shoot to wound, and lie, I suspect. Harsh tactics for a cyclist!

What's your safe word? I was born talking shit to the doctor!

"Disappearing diesel truck."

Really is. And it really did. Now don't make me bunny hop on your rocket stove.

Forget the rocket stove (I knew you were reading), I'm going to have nightmares wondering about how you made that truck disappear!

You have stuff figured out...One of the enlightened ones. Thanks for joining in!
