EDC carry saved Thankgiving Dinner! - 11/29/05 05:34 PM
Well not quite, but close. Between the main course and dessert the lights went out. And it was dark I mean dark. I was at my in-laws and I wasn't as familiar with the layout of the house as I would be in my own house. Well no problem I pulled out my Peak 3LED AAA light and presto we had light. A minute later the lights were back on. I immediately went to my bag and grabbed a few more flashlights and gave them out just in case.
My wife jokes about it but seeing is believing, especially when it?s dark out.

Oh, man, I thought you were going to say the electric carving knife wouldn't work, so you used your pocket chainsaw on the turkey! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I have a single led Matterhorn, which made a nice candle during a recent blackout. Love that snow-white led.

I thought about taking out my BK-7 from my BOB to carve the turkey, I bet that would have raised some eyebrows. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Anyone EDC a titanium gravy boat? Me? I keep one hanging on my belt at all times during the holiday season. Think me crazy? Hey, c'mon folks, you can boil water in it, for crying out loud! <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Be honest now, how many times at the Thanksgiving get-together have you overhead the wives say, "I knew I shoulda brought an extra gravy boat from home". That's my cue to stride into the kitchen, untie the 50' of paracord that I've wrapped around the gravy boat in a pattern that makes it look like some piece of aboriginal basketry, give it a quick blow to get the lint and dust bunnies out, and dinner is served! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
OK, that's enough Turkey day humor for me. Over and out. Way out.

I read the tittle "EDC carry saved Thankgiving Dinner" and imediately thought you'd revived the turkey back to life with your EDC kit medical supplies. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
