Hey now - that was/is some funny stuff. I don't think that we need to take everything as serious and I don't see this as at all political.

Both "sides" of the issue were overdone to make a funny point (satire) and I, for one, appreciate how we can look at something like this and have a nice laugh.

The sword was a nice touch for the "mall ninja" segment and the poncho shelter without being set up beyond a very simple way was also a nice nod to the "outdoor expert" that has to be rescued someplace every season.

So I don't take this as serious information but as humor commentary about the whole main-stream attitude about being prepared. I enjoyed the 'interviewer' response to the ideas being presented and the drink the champagne bit at the end sort of summed it all up nicely.

The one scary part was the "elite" equipment company five grand bag with things in it like the champagne koozie... some people will actually think that is necessary! This is all in fun so - let's enjoy! Happy weekend!!
