What About BOB?

A post on VoxDay and a conversation I had today has me thinking about BOBs. Bug Out Bags that is. (Nate posted on this a while ago) Simply put, a BOB is everything you would need if you needed to get out of town in a hurry. The reason why is irrelevant. It could be (to qoute Nate) a "Bomb, Meteor, Hillary Clinton book signing, you know, real wrath of God type stuff." Add to that wildfire, crazed boyfriend, hurricane, etc.

Check out Nates list of items. Add to that list some good rope, fishing line & hooks, a cast iron pan (in trunk?) and some salt for cooking and preserving. Others have also suggested a copy of a passport.
