    You will have a lot of time to think about it on your commute from Titusville to Ocala.
    I'm not really a hiker, I just play one on White Blaze.

    Rice sofa is a good idea. If you had a bean-bag chair filled with actual beans, it would be a perfect combination.

    I don't need a fancy electric water summoner, I have a hole in the ground with a hand-pump, so please remove me from your mailing list.

    Thanks, drive through!

    It's always Sunny in Philadelphia.
    I'm so confused, I'm not sure if I lost my horse or found a rope.

    Matthewski, how about some new perdictions. Quite frankly I'm underwhelmed by this one as humans are bearly civilized anyway.

    I'm with mathiewski on this one. I like UL hiking gear but I keep the big heavy stuff in the closet just in case.

    I do wonder what set him off on this subject, however.
    Some knew me as Piper, others as just Diane.
    I hiked the PCT: Mexico to Mt. Shasta, 2008. Santa Barbara to Canada, 2009.

    no. in fact. matthewski has spent his 49 years studing the fesability of rice sofas and such. he has disreguarded the notion dreams contain futures. he was born with a understanding that this silly way of life we live was a sick and tourtured death throws soon to die death.now do any of you even understand how powerful our hiker community is/ stripped of our gear and thrust into a wilderness of future shortages, we will have skills needed. we should all drop this life now. tune out and drop out and become as trees planted in the trails. the time of heated houses and citys and granny on life support and taxes and flu shots is over. humans have failed to choose a viable path and will either become wandering nomadic tribs or die. no? am i so wrong?
    well, do we wandering nomadic types carry our rice sofas with us, or e entully stop somewhere and set up shop only to start the process all over again?

    Did you know that when you first joined this site I strongly suspected that you were really Matthewski using a different account? You two had a relatively similar posting style and sense of humor.

    Maybe it will happen, maybe it won't. Adjust accordingly.

    Actually,I think everything will be just fine unless we lose the power grid for an extended amount of time or the dollar and other currencies collapse due to runaway inflation and debt.When we have an ice storm and lose power the store shelves where I live are pretty much ransacked in just a few hours...................

    I saved weight on my thru-hike by carrying dehydrated water.
