Then type up this note:
When in doubt or when a problem arises, reach for your Survival Kit.
A lollipop to help you lick your problems A rubber band to help you be flexible A paper clip to help you hold things together A Tootsie roll to help you roll with the punches Gum to help you stick-to-it A pin to help you pin point the real trouble String to help you tie up loose ends A band-aid to bind up your wounds A cotton ball to put in your ears when you can't hear yourself think. And, pennies so you have enough sense to realize what a valuable assest you are.

Hmmm ... I think you guys are a great untapped resource!
Did anyone check out my Vegas Survival Kit post? I could use your ideas! (I don't want to get in trouble by posting the same things in different forums !)

The only thing I think I would add is some Duct Tape to the survival kit. So that you can fix it if it needs fixing because if duct tape can't fix it, nothing can! LOL Well that or superglue. There's an old saying in my mom's family. If it moves and shouldn't duct tape it (dad's family says superglue it) if it should move and doesn't use DW-40 !
