An interesting take on survival kits

A breakdown of three different survival kits ranging in size from an Altoids tin to a fanny pack. Of course, it helps if you know what you're doing and how to use the components of said kits!

A book reading meme!

A great meme from John Scalzi:

A Book Reading Meme

In response to all the "book reading memes" with which I am continually tagged, a new book reading meme:

1. Open the book you're currently reading to page 133.

2. Read the fourth line on the page.

3. Put the book back where it had been resting.

4. Tell no one of what it was you just did.

5. Think of five friends to tag with this meme.

6. Do not actually tag them. They are busy and have lives.

7. Go about your life as if nothing has happened.

8. Carry the secret of this meme to your grave.
