So there you go. There are a few things I'd like to change when I have the $ and obviously I have more to add, but it's a work in progress and I re-arrange it like every week anyway. Next I plan to buy a hennessey hammock, as the one I want is on clearance right now for almost 50 bucks less than retail. I need a new sleeping bag, some guns, a battery powered water purifier...All high dollar items. I'm currently putting them in order of importance pertaining to Z-Con, which in and of itself costs 75 bucks...

I just called work. I heard that Maglite flashlights are water-proof. They are. Mine has been sitting in a tub of water, on, for about 9 hours. Does anyone know if batteries are waterproof?


Later, you scallywags.
