Heavy duty "letter openers" make much better pry-bars than do knives. wink

Choas, I just read his thread and, even though I think it's all been mentioned, I thought it might give you some ideas:

I took my own advice and picked up one of those letter openers at H*Depot -- that 3/8" tip made a real mess of the envelope. The 6" with 5/16" tip is plenty for opening letters wink

Good blog. It looks like PJ has a bit more room and is thinking longer-term than I am. What I've ended up with gives me perhaps three days' worth of food and water at minimal exertion without relying on anything outside of my desk, along with clothes and toiletries to be clean and comfortable.

I went a bit heavier on food than my threat model called for, so that I would have some slack for snacking :-).

Sounds like you're in great shape then. More is better especially when you're not talking about hauling it on your back. Well done!

I have some stuff in my desk at work. The only food is some cans of sardines.

Is getting stuck at work a possibility IlBob? How confortable will you be if it happens?
