With the threat of unstoppable global warming and the increasing likelihood of a worldwide financial collapse followed by massed terrorist attackes.

What would your 1 luxury item be that you would take on the arc or into the bunker or onboard Airforce 1, that you simply couldn't do without.

Mine would be Illey dark roast ground coffee.

It would be a tough choice between toilet paper and soap, but I think I'd probably choose soap...or (more likely) a bag of salt. Salt is good for staying hydrated, for making a saline solution for clensing flesh and wounds, for curing meat, and as a luxurious flavour enhancer. After all, I do live in the Sonoran Desert....


P.S. Salt is a good trading commodity too, and is easily divided up into small amounts so one doesn't have to carry a lot of it when trading. The rest can stay stashed away in a good "hide" until an additional portion is needed.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

It doesn't matter your wife, my wife.............Women=Aggreivation sooner or later. They can't help themselves. Its hormonal.

Now a decent cuppa and a good ginger biscuit.......... bliss! Satisfaction guaranteed. When you've had enough you just put the lid back on the biscuit tin.

Have you ever tried putting the lid back on a woman? Frowner

I dunno about putting a lid back on a woman, but I am certain I won't get good sex out of a cuppa tea and a damn biscuit. Perhaps you've gotten your eating and screwing mixed up?

BTW, to be serious for a moment, my wife almost never aggravates (spelled correctly, take notes) me and when she does I am often the cause of the aggravation. She is my heart and soul and by far the best thing that ever happened to me. Making jokes about women is fine and fun but the fact is, in my case, at least, the quality of my life would be substantially worse without my wife and kids. I've been divorced and I've been married and I'll take married anyday. I don't even have any really hard feelings about my first wife, we just went down different paths.

Believe me when I tell you its impossible to put the lid back on a women once she has shifted into top gear and has her foot pressed down hard on the accelerator. All this hullabaloo b/s that gets trader about "great sex" is just that hullabaloo!
I've had it. I'd still prefer the tea and biscuits.

I've been thru the mincer,just as you have. I too now have a great woman in my life. My kids are my life, I'm not so sure I am theirs. Thats what being a father is all about I guess. The aggreivation or aggravation as you so rightly spelled it, just comes with the job. LOL

Copenhagen would be hard to live without, but if it got to that point, it won't keep, and they wouldn't be making any more, so you'd get over it. Next choice, a good single malt; and more ammunition is a given.

my own still...

Jools,

the best sex you will ever have with your wife is the afternoon you come back home with her from the bank after having made the last payment on your home loan. That afternoon and the next week or so.

I happen to be very fond of tea, an appreciation that I picked up from my English friends. But I have to side with Gatogordo on this one. I would take my wife as well

I could be persuaded over the still. As for the home loan completion sex...... nah! The say good quality high cocco content chocolate has the same effect on the brain, and does away with all that "was that good for you dear" touchy feely stuff. Roll Eyes

I don't think so, Jools. It's been so long that I may have forgotten how to do it, but I haven't forgotten that it was better than chocolate. Lol!

I still believe the old saying..."Candy's dandy, but liquor's quicker." And for some of you guys out there, you can spell liquor either way...same result.


Anyway, a good bottle of fortified Portuguese red with just a touch of sweetness to it for the lady, a log burning in an open fireplace...a 12' leather sofa and a down comforter, a little snow and frost on the ground with the mercury hanging about -5 F outside, a bit of winter twilight...ah, the memories...

I've enjoyed some -40 F howling blizzards that way too...dang, wish I was young again....
