Good God, That's genius, man! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I need to do something like that to divert the family from the procession of bad clothing I've recieved over the years. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Actually, this year I've dropped a few hints about camping and hiking equipment and as luck would have it, some of these items just happen to be things that can replace what's in my PSK or BOB currently as well.

Gerber XL Axe (will a prybar fit in the hollow handle for transport?)
Suunto M-3 or MC-2
Magfire Pro or something similar
Pelican M6 LED
Acme T2000 whistle
Cold weather clothing
Ray Mears' World of Survival DVDs
More Glow Sticks (I... Errr... Let my niece play with the last ones... Equipped to be a fun uncle I guess LOL)
Etcetera and so on...



Actually I'm not worried so much about myself. I'd prefer it if my family made such lists so I had a clue what to get them that would actually be of some use. I'd like to get them PSKs but they already think I'm a complete loon. Luckily they have well stocked First Aid Kits... I guess... LOL

"Oh son... What a wonderful length of cord, safety pins, a whistle, a folding knife, some kind of make-up mirror with a hole in it and various tiny bits..." - My mother as she opens up her present Xmas morning and tries to maintain a smile.

HAHAHA
