Wow, that is almost comical, but isn't that often the way it goes? One or two people take the time and feel the need, the rest just follow each other into whatever they come across.

What you should'a done is grab someone to cuddle and the two of you share the boodle. I know many ways to curb the loneliness. <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

You make an interesting point. Unfortunately, she was across town, working in the primary 911 center. She encourages the backup gun, extra knife, tolerates lots of water containers, but draws the line at the backup lady. <img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Excellent Points on which I Agree!

On a related matter, -I worry a bit on Geocachers, -the sport and activity is pretty popular and big, -inadvertently finding YOUR *Non* Geocacheing, Survival Cache!

Should such occur, -it's more than likely that a "given you", -has inadvertently hidden your Cache, -near where a Geocacher has or will hide his or her Geo / Non-Survival, -Cache. But I worry a bit about this possibly, somewhere, sometime, happening! Still of course, -No reason not to go about with Survival Caches. "Colliding with Geocachers is still rather unlikely.

Also, -accidentally happening upon a Geocacher's Cache, -the other way around now, -conceivably could provide you with some Useful or Survival related item. Though also quite likely not. [color:"black"] [/color] [email]Chisel[/email]

Cache'ing water is an old practise among desert explorers. The problem is more than once idiots have removed the supplies. A friend of mine was hiking and encountered a group who commented on finding a cache HE had stored earlier. They even offered him some, never looking at the owner's information clearly stated on the container. <img src="/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
