This is too funny! I hate having to explain why I NEED a Leatherman New Wave AND a SAK AND a decent fixed blade. I wish my wife could be convinced that emergency preparedness is necessary to life as eating and breathing. I admit that she has improved since hurricanes Rita and Katrina.
Perhaps you could add more to make it a top twenty list. Here's five more: 15. LED vs. Mag-Lite discussions at the dinner table do not induce massive amounts of sighing and eye-rolling. 14. She can start up the charcoal in the Weber without using matches and lighter fluid. 13. She replaces the nearly-expired supplies in your FAK because she was already started to clean up hers. 12. Anything from REI, Sportsman's Warehouse, BassPro World and Cabela's would make great stocking stuffers for the kids at Christmas. 11. You knowingly smile when she says that she would prefer being stranded on a deserted, desolate island with Doug Ritter rather than Brad Pitt.

Funny stuff! I'm still laughing. For me, there's no chance my wife is joining the site, but at least she lets me get away with 7 and 3. And I've always thought 5 was true. Number 1 is the case with or without being part of the site. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Here are my five:
20. Your money may be her money, but your FAK is not her FAK. 19. A donation to the ETS Foundation isn't a waste of money. 18. You have your "own" large closet, only because that's where all of the emergency supplies are. 17. When the stuff hits the fan, you'll both be on the same wavelength. 16. Her definition of "roughing it" is really close to your definition.

I'm assuming that the tiny evening bag has a Ritter Pocket Survival Kit and that the heels are hollow so one can store their spark-lite and tinder.

What about a 'survival-bra'? You mean something that can be used as a double barreled sling shot for hunting when the SHTF <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Or a double- layerd one to store PSK-items in.

23. It's neat when friends often remark how the resourceful, tough heroine in movies remind them of your wife. Speaking of tough and resourceful heroines, I told my wife once that the only woman I would ever leave her for was Lara Croft (movie version). She rolled her eyes of course, but she still carries all the gear I put in her purse. Actually I think she forgets it's there (big honkin' purse) but at this point, I'll take it <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Now, if she'd only learn how to destroy killer robots and defend the house against antique clock thieves... <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
