When I was 18 at college I pledged/joined a Fraternity. It was winter time, I always wore my leather jacket, smoked a lot of cigarettes, and cussed like a sailor - One of the guys commented that I reminded him of Dice Clay, and Diceman stuck.

hehe, when I worked a previous job a coworker commented that my swearing "could make a sailor blush". I had a decent level of linguistic creativity then... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I worked for years as a 'cable guy' and I like to monkey around with things, so it just sort of happened.

So I am not the only one with a titanium spork and a hanlde shaved tooth brush. Cool.
Have you ever been somewhere where there was not a stick or rock? I assume you are carrying a knife to shape the stick appropriately. Ditch the spork and spare yourself it's opressive weight. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I saw a really cool lighthiker piece of homeade gear I plan to reproduce myself. It was a military rain poncho with some cut down fibrglass tent poles that made a tiny one person tent(no floor) and weighed next to nothing.
I think the whole light gear thing is not about leaving gear behind. You could just take a knife and a lighter and make a fire but that is not nearly as cool as having the latest lightest MSR stove.
My minimalist emergency kit is a bic lighter or firesteel,mora and some water purification tablets. I sealed one in a foodsaver bag and duct taped it to my life jacket. They are cheap enough to stash everywhere.

My first name is Andrew, but most people call me Andy, and Wayne is my middle name. Usually only family and close friends call me Andy Wayne.

It is a bit corny but I was a big Judge Dredd fan and always need a numeric component for passwords at work.

I knew my wife's family since I was in grade 3, one of her brothers and I went to school together. When we started going out one of her natural brothers and one of her foster brothers were my best friends (I was 18 at the time) Her dad was a big old ex-cowboy who when he found out we were going out said. "All these years I've been baring the front door against those wolves and you sneak in the back door with the yard dogs like a dirty coyote" of course he pronounced it Ki-yote. For many of my close friends it is the name they know my by. On some forums I am known as coyote but most of the forums I joined in the last two years it is coyotebc, because many of them already had a coyote on there so I added BC because I live in British Columbia (BC)
By the way just turned 42 last month and the wife and I have been married for over 19 years
