Nope, even better.....ice cold BEER!

Not even a properly folded jacket pocket or a crisp 4 in hand will get you past almond milk. Everyone knows you can not milk an almond.

Local microbrew, about as fancy as we get with a county population of about 3,000

Would you settle for bypass? :sneaky2:

I had the last of the embalmed christmas cake for desert. Mmmm. Made it last Thanksgiving. Bourbon soaked cherries and raisins in an egg-white and bourbon cake batter. With pecans. Cooked then wrapped in cheesecloth soaked in bourbon (the embalming procedure). Wrapped in plastic wrap then tin foil and stored in the bottom drawer of the fridge. Tasteee!

And I'll punch any one of youse guyz that calls it fruitcake. Is NOT fruitcake. No citron. More bourbon. Not sure where mom got the recipe but man is it good stuff. Glad I learned to make it while she was still around.

Well technically.... I like fruit cake ;)

Here's one for ya'. I bought a fruitcake in December, 1999. I still have it - unopened. It doesn't appear to have changed a bit.

Sounds suspiciously like my mum's Christmas cake recipe (although she used Brandy). A designated driver was required if you were stupid enough to have a slice and expect to pass a breathalyser test.

Lord knows there are plenty of those out there and quite frankly they don't interest me (and I suspect a lot of others as well).

Ok, help my bewildered late nite brain here. How is a survivalist forum, and a survival forum, different? Is'nt the final goal the same?
Aside from out right bushcraft forums, where the entire conversation centers around sitting in the mud naked rubbing two sticks together, and hoping for a happy outcome.:)

Without splitting hairs I believe there is a clear difference. This forum is based around going into the wilderness and surviving. That is whether it is the end of the world, your truck ran into a ditch in the mountains, or just to live. Survivalist forums tend to be about the impending collapse of society "doom" and the aftermath "gloom" that will ensue. Here, that is only one situation that not everyone is dedicated to preparing for.

This is not a survivalist forum. It's a forum about how to survive in the wilderness when the chips are down. It's about tips and tricks to employ to make your hike, camp, trail blazing, etc. more enjoyable. It is not about bunkers, the wrong politics, setting up kill zones or boobytraps. It's about how to enjoy the outdoors.

I established a VERY EFFECTIVE kill zone to completely eradicate a serious breakfast at a local restaurant this morning. Does that count?

WMD are really outside the bounds of the forum. I think your main concern will be survivors that can point the finger at you ... assuming there were any survivors.

Only a few English muffin and pancake crumbs and a small smear of egg yolk. :blushing:

Yeah, they do that to me too. But then, so does water.

They frown when patrons lick the plates. Can you believe that? :sneaky2:

Ok. Seems like if one was prepared to survive the worst the other would be easy.
But no matter..WTHeck,
BACON !!!!!...LOL

Mmmm bacon.

'Zactly. Nurishment from the gods.

Sheez.....y'all can't even keep a doom and gloom thread on topic.

I'm going to fix me some bacon.

Bit too heavy for me. I agree with redneck. Common sense should prevail.
