In The Spirit Of Survival.

Smalliebigs, the plain Cheetos, or the jalapeno ones ?

Yeah -- I always unclick the seatbelt and crack a beer when I get beyond the five mile perimeter.

A statistically safe thing to do.

A statistically safe thing to do.

I learned to drive with a beer in my hand and no seat belt. I have never wrecked. I found out early that a keg of beer in a tub fit perfectly in the back ot a 74 Gremlin and the hose would reach the front seat. You did need a copilot to pump it every once in a while. Trying to do that while driving was just too dangerous.

If you learn to drive drunk and do it well, sober driving is a breeze.....

So how did you pack all of the survival gear?

[jdmidwest]

The keg and the Gremlin was the survival gear back then. I think there was a 20 gauge and a box of shells in the back seat too.

Nothing says a good time quite like multiple felonies with your best friend.

[jdmidwest]

Ahh, but it was not that big of a deal back then. Dang ole law makers and activists. MADD was to drinkers like PETA is to outdoorsmen.

[Chief Grey Bear]

Truer words are rarely spoken.

They both have hampered my lifestyle.

Something else to look at would be weigh (sp?) protein. I don't know what the shelf life on that stuff is, but I imagine vaccum sealed weigh isolate is probably good indefinitely. I love the stuff and it makes me drink water. 1oz = about 25g of pure, easily digestable protein. Doesn't get much better than that , and it's awesome for staving off general canoe fatigue.
