Posted by kelly May 5 '16, 09:28

The insulin I'd have to grab wouldn't do me much good without my pump supplies!

this is a good wiki how link about how to build one that i bookmarked..... - x May 5, 09:39
First time I heard the term "go bag" was when Mac gave hers to Maggiein the Boston Bombing episode of the Newsroom -- nm - JenBro May 5, 09:38 1
- my go bag came from Patton Oswalts in Justified. -- nm - groiny May 5, 09:39
if anyone cares - this is what is in ours - Andie May 5, 09:34 34
- do payphones even exist anymore? And where's the booze ? -- nm - decline May 5, 09:48
- suggestion: add a roll of ducttape to go with the electrical tape...aren't payphones a quarter now? Some granola bars wouldn't go wrong either -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:47 8
  - oh, there is plenty more i could have, but, i figure this is okay (and still easy to carry) -- nm - Andie May 5, 09:51 5
    - (I'm more adding stuff as I think of it for mine now so it is all in one place :) (good list)) -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:52 4
      - and they were just giving away backpacks with Coors Light too so that will be a nice holder for all this. sweet -- nm - Beaker May 5, 10:03 1
        
        I'm adding some post-its and a memory stick too -- nm - Beaker May 5, 10:08
      - :) the big one i don't have is water. -- nm - Andie May 5, 09:53 1
        
        we always had 2 big jugs set aside in a closet. Flashforward a couple years: one of them let loose and water everywhere -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:58
  - payphones are 50 cents. but they take dimes. :) -- nm - Andie May 5, 09:50
  - pair of scissors -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:49
- i'm supposed to have an earthquake survival kit handy, i guess - mr. sassafras jeans May 5, 09:46 3
  - Sassafrass Jeans? -- nm - JenBro May 5, 09:47 2

      - Ahhhh -- nm - JenBro May 5, 10:08
- Great pack! I want to do a blog for our insurance web page about "Go Bags' - there are some cool sites with great packing tips for fitting things into - JenBro May 5, 09:43
- if the civilization goes to shit, the last thing I am worrited about is TP. -- nm - groiny May 5, 09:40 3
  - you say that now, but wait till you are trading blow jobs so you can use something other than poison ivy to wipe your butt -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:42

- Nice. -- nm - znufrii May 5, 09:40
- Bring an extra sock. Once Americans start moving up you won't have any working pay phones. Put the roll of dimes in the sock and use it as a weapon - Covington May 5, 09:39 5
  - *blinks* i had no idea you were this BAD ASS!!! -- nm - JenBro May 5, 09:46 3

        Right? -- nm - JenBro May 5, 10:13
  - don't need the dimes. fill the sock with sand, it's just as effective....nm - x May 5, 09:44
- I would mock you, but then something would happen and Karma would be like, "Dontcha wish you had Andie & Dave's emergency pack?" -- nm - JaxSean May 5, 09:39 2
  - i really don't think i'll ever need it. but you never expect to, you know? - Andie May 5, 09:40 1
    - it's really good to have one... - x May 5, 09:42
- That's a *great* pack. Actually, I need to add some phone chargers to ours. -- nm - landbeck May 5, 09:36
- what are those crazy end-of-the-world preparers called ? -- nm - decline May 5, 09:35 3
  - Doomsday Preppers. That show got cancelled I think when 50% of the subjects got put in prison -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:43
  - it's a really small bag. honestly. it's just if you had to spend a night or two in an evac place, it would be better with a few basics, you know? -- nm* - Andie May 5, 09:36 1
    - (basically, it's a day pack. the one i use for baseball is bigger.) -- nm - Andie May 5, 09:45
It's always a good idea to think about what you would grab if you only have ten minutes. If prepared beforehand, it will be instinct in the moment. - Name Withheld by Request May 5, 09:32 4

- guns, porn, booze....nm - x May 5, 09:35
- My plan has pretty much been "grab the kid and the insulin". Not worried about the dog bc he's up our asses 24/7. No way he won't be following us out. - kelly May 5, 09:34
and make sure to have lots of snacks - decline May 5, 09:30 1
