    Cool The "Survival" staff!

    I was thinking about who might be on the "staff" if we started a "Survival School" here & have come up with only 5 names. Not to take anything away from anybody else but I was looking at who has the overall experience & does this as a "full-time" Job. Here's what I came up with:

    Bruce Zed
    Rick-SAR
    Pict
    Klkak
    "Wildman" Steve Brills

    Just goes to show you that I have too much time on my hands.

    Yeah, I missed putting him on the list. Jason Montana might be another good one as well.

    My brother is on the reigonal ERT (SWAT) team. They had a policy that every member of the team must be able to drag the largest member of the team "x" distance in a certain amount of time. That was all fine and good until a guy joined that was truly huge (not fat just immense) and most of the guys couldn't move him more than a few feet in any reasonable amount of time. I think they should mount rollers on the back of his vest. Mac

    Cool Time out!

    A clarification: When I used the term "Staff", I was NOT meaning INSTRUCTORS! Sheath those claws and bring those lips down over the fangs brother Wolves! Bruce Zed already HAS a Survival School hence the experience is already there. Rick SAR HAS been involved with official Search & Rescue groups & "Wildman "Steve Brills has his own web-site & is considered to be THE guy to talk to about wild edibles...or so my wife tells me! (Deep sigh!) So now I have to appoint Remy as "group psychologist" to help pacify the rest of you, huh? OK, let's see; Ken has already grabbed the title of Quality Control director, Hopeak will be in charge of latrines & cruising for single chicks. Rick loses points for posting his own photo of the fat guy laying on his back, comotose, after over-indulging in Twinkies...just sayin'...& poor Winnie over in the UK is scratching her head wondering what kind of nut-house she's gotten herself involved with...

    I was going to appoint Hopeak, but since his "head" doesn't have a door on it...

    Was that a typo? Did you mean to say either split or was it rear?
