This week's List of 10 is: If you were stranded on a deserted island, what 10 things would you want to have with you? Some of my favorite shows are "Lost", and "Survivor Man", so I thought this would be a fun one to answer.- A multi-tool (thanks, Les). This tool puts the Swiss Army Knife to shame.
- A fire starting kit. Fire provides warmth and light, you can cook on it, and it keeps critters away.
- A change of clothing. That way, you can wash one set while still having something to wear.
- A pair of Gloves. These can keep you warm and prevent injuries to your hands while working.
- A first-aid kit. I know, technically multiple items, but they come in one box :-).
- A canteen. Not only holds water, but keeps it clean.
- A space blanket. Keeps your body heat in.
- Nylon line. Multiple uses: tying things together for shelter, snares to catch food, etc.
- A mirror. No, I am not vain, it is for signaling.
- A Personal Locator Beacon. These work with satellites anywhere in the world. I don't want to be on that island forever, duh!
