To show you the way through life's winding ways.<br />*Mini Flashlight. To shine light where life seems its darkest.<br />*Whistle. That when you need God most, you will be heard.<br />*Fish hooks, and some fishing line. Like our Lord Jesus Christ, that you may fish for men along the way<br />*Needle and thread. To mend the wound where hate would fester<br />A combination pocket knife, containing:<br />*One cutting blade To cut sin out of your heart<br />*Two types of screwdriver To fasten humility or loosen pride from your soul, as screwy as life gets!<br />*Bottle opener To open bottles<br />*Can opener To open cans<br />*A corkscrew. To open what were once bottles of water.tullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01197709180292694356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6875716674621937836.post-71472006815277715072009-05-19T21:07:59.180-07:002009-05-19T21:07:59.180-07:00brian: somehow, wine just doesnt seem right in an ...brian: somehow, wine just doesnt seem right in an adventurist setting. maybe jack daniels,though.<br /><br />KD: didnt mcgyver do something like that?<br /><br />jade: the voice of experience? ;)<br /><br />brian: actually, it did happen, once. thanks for jogging that memory. :)<br /><br />NW: i'll bring it along saturday (just in case i'm feeling lonely.)Ginohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09606046924332159076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6875716674621937836.post-87059372818210705722009-05-19T16:01:53.215-07:002009-05-19T16:01:53.215-07:00Gino, if you get lost this weekend in the St. Paul...Gino, if you get lost this weekend in the St. Paul area (as has been known to happen) just start blowing that whistle and we'll come find you!night writerhttp://thenightwriterblog.powerblogs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6875716674621937836.post-75057987972207761482009-05-19T15:06:36.917-07:002009-05-19T15:06:36.917-07:00Brian - I have a Swiss Army Knife with a corkscrew...Brian - I have a Swiss Army Knife with a corkscrew and bottle opener - those are the two features I've probably used the most on that thing.<br /><br />...I wonder what that says about me?Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13959637910926242468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6875716674621937836.post-30028426454561792372009-05-19T10:18:00.000-07:002009-05-19T10:18:00.000-07:00Haven't you ever been traveling in a strange city,...Haven't you ever been traveling in a strange city, grabbed a bottle of wine on the way back to the hotel, settled in for a quiet evening, only to realize OH MY GOD WE DON'T HAVE A CORKSCREW!!!???<br /><br />Then you have to go all the way down to the lounge and have someone open it for you. It's terribly inconvenient, you know. Not to mention embarrassing. <br /><br />(Kidding aside, I own at least two extra corkscrews from more or less this situation exactly...)Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06799024060528185282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6875716674621937836.post-65505484425508509272009-05-19T08:50:00.000-07:002009-05-19T08:50:00.000-07:00This looks more like a convenience kit rather than...This looks more like a convenience kit rather than a survival kit though... none of those foil thermal blanket things, no water purifier, nothing to start a fire with?<br /><br />Or it's a mid-woods date survival kit...<br /><br />Use the fish hooks and needle/thread to fashion a tent-like covering out of your jacket, the weak flashlight is mood lighting. The whistle is to call to song birds so you have some romantic background music, and the pocket knife is for opening the wine, opening your imported beer, and serving the cheese and crackers with the wine.<br /><br />The compass?...<br /><br />...that's to prove to your date that you aren't lost, and you don't need to ask directions.Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13959637910926242468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6875716674621937836.post-26037028991517095912009-05-19T06:47:00.000-07:002009-05-19T06:47:00.000-07:00In your hands, sure it's a joke.
