Unbelievable
Stinks like he’ll, but you can sleep

Good article!
They forgot mosquito repentant, old Brooke Benton 8-Tracks, soft blankets, a dozen condoms, a six-pack, a 1911 and an old pre-flattened tire in the trunk to show her father as an excuse why you got her home 2 hours late.
Guam has about 175,000 people and probably 175,000,000,000 ticks. Not to mention sand fleas, regular fleas, various wasp/hornets and mosquitoes.
You either need long sleeves or repellent here.
In the military in Alaska, we were taught to keep two blankets, two cans of Sterno, hard candy and matches in the car in case we got stranded in the Alaskan winter.
When I first moved to Western Kansas, the local guys I worked with told me to keep a heavy coat and sleeping bag in my pickup. They also said to just stay where you were if you were on a paved road as a snow plow would come by once a day on all paved roads.
I did what they said but never needed the sleeping bag.
They did give this Florida boy one piece of bad advice. They said 4wd was no better than 2wd on ice. That turned out not to be true.
One day after a two day group meeting I was headed home to Garden City. As I left Wichita, the traffic was crawling, maybe 25mph. This was on the ice coated interstate.
Finally I got maybe 10 miles and the traffic thinned out. I gradually increased my speed to maybe 45. After maybe another 10 miles I decided that the 4wd was not needed, remembering what I had been told.
I had gone no more than a hundred yards and the vehicle began to get squirrely. I tried it maybe a mile and put it back into 4wd and it made a great difference. I kept it in 4wd all the way to Garden City.
Old cell phones that are no longer active on your regular accounts, can still (and are required by law) to be able to dial 911.
For example: Donated phones are given to battered women shelters for exactly that purpose.
I don’t see basic tools on the list.
Got stuck on the Beltline around North Raleigh a few yrs. ago in an unexpected snow. Slipping a sliding, stuck in the center lane. Over 2 hrs. to drive 1 mile.
No possible way to get off the road.
What did I beg for? That I didn’t have and needed desperately?
A pot to pi$$ in !
I now carry a hospital style male urinal under the front seat.
