A question of safety / comfort

I only have room in my Terrorist Emergency Kit for one more item—either a flask of Irish whiskey or a huge tube of grape-flavored Joy Jelly.  Any thoughts?

update:  never mind. I split the difference and went with a can of Planter’s salted cashews.  Thanks anyway.

    Ah, man, does that mean I can’t suggest a Wham! CD.

  2. Jeff Goldstein says:

    Already packed those, silly.

  3. Jim Valvis says:

    Yeah, I should’ve guess.  But let me ask you this.  Have you packed any of John Kerry’s purple hearts?  Because, you know, that’s what’s really going to keep us safe.

  4. Jeff Goldstein says:

    No Purple Hearts, no.  But I have a detailed map of the MeKong delta.  Does that count?

  5. Jim Valvis says:

    Sorry.  Gotta have the purple hearts.  In fact, three of them, so you can get yourself out of the fire early.  Don’t worry about finding them, though.  I hear some people just throw them away.

    We must ask ourselves…”What would Thurston and Lovey take?”

  7. Bruce says:

    I still would have gone with the Black Bush – goes with everything.  Oh, and a paddleball, that’s it…wait…maybe this remote control too.

  8. Mark says:

    Irish Whiskey? (and I’m Irish). Fetch yourself a fine single malt. Or a single lass. Either are most acceptable in your emergency kit.

  9. In the immortal words of Chief Brody, “You’re going to need a bigger boat.”

  10. Oh, and Irish whiskey and single malt are not mutually exclusive—try Bushmills, Black Bush to be precise.

  11. Sen. John Blutarsky says:

    My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.

  12. Bruce says:

    If I were limited to ONE bottle of hooch in my bugout kit, I’d have a hard time narrowing down my choices.  If price is not an option, it’s The MacAllan 25 year-old.  On a budget, maybe a bottle of 12 y.o. would suffice.

    Favorite Irish Whiskey: Midleton Very Rare – no contest.
