  1. Watching the crazies now and could see where a b.o.b. would be nice

    That's a freaky movie, all 3 of them are. Actually you bring up another good point. It is recommended to have a small BOB in your car. If you break down and have to hike out to safety, you'll be better prepared for survival. I have yet to set one of these up but is on my list. The hardcore people will actually have something set up at home, in their car, at work and anywhere else they frequent a lot.

  2. Another funny:

    ACTUAL transcript of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October, 1995. This radio conversation was released by the Chief of Naval Operations on 10-10-95.

    Americans: "Please divert your course <NOBR>15 degrees</NOBR> to the North to avoid a collision."

    Canadians: "Recommend you divert YOUR course <NOBR>15 degrees</NOBR> to the South to avoid a collision."

    Americans: "This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course."

    Canadians: "No, I say again, you divert YOUR course."

    Americans: "THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES' ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH. THAT'S ONE-FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP."

    Canadians: "This is a lighthouse. Your call."

    Not sure if it's real or not.....

  3. Iranian Air Defense Site: 'Unknown aircraft you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.'

    Aircraft: 'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'

    Air Defense Site: 'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'

    Aircraft: 'This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll wait!'

    Air Defense Site: ( .... total silence)
