boinky 0 #1 November 27, 2004 Your home is going up in flames. All living/breathing things have already escaped (we're cutting down on the moral dilemna here).

boinky 0 #6 November 27, 2004 OK, I guess I should mention that I don't keep any of my gear at home. If I did, then I would definitely save that. >>>Rig is custom takes much longer My rig is a Dolphin and I got it in 9 days.

boinky 0 #8 November 27, 2004 Quoteummmm...does this mean your house burnt down todayor you bought a rig today? Neither. I kept my laptop on a counter and the cord and phone cord (yeah, I know, icky old-fashioned dial up) dangle down from the counter. It had a DVD in it. I have two cats. They were wrestling with one another at about 6:15 this morning. They got caught in the cords and pulled the computer onto the floor. WHAM! Besides waking me up and scaring the living shit out of me, they took the decision away from me in one fell swoop. The screen is non-readable and I've always heard that if the screen is messed up on a laptop, the computer is totalled (sort of like a car). Sigh....Anyone want to come to Georgia, join my pity party and get drunk with me tonight?Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

You have the opportunity to save ONE (and only one) thing. What would that one thing be? Up until this morning, without a momen't hesitation, my choice would have been my laptop computer. My RAID configured hard drives in my server, that is where I keep almost everything which is un-replaceable, my videos from my DV camcorder, my pictures from my dig. camera, etc. etc.. Anything else can be replaced with time, the memories stored on that server can not. Yes, i'm a geek. FGF #??? I miss the sky...

ACMESkydiver 0 #17 November 28, 2004 If I could save one thing, it'd be my computer tower...or my wedding dress. The computer has irreplaceable stuff on it...projects I'm working on, old orders, e-mails and fun stuff from some people that are now gone from this earth...and obviously the wedding dress....I'd be heartbroken if that went up in flames. I can't decide. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #18 November 28, 2004 QuoteI would however feel real bad about leaving my rig, figure I can throw the rig on my back while carrying the hard drives, only take a second to pick it up! While I appreciate the truth and creativity in this statement, the rules say you can only take one thing. Since I ventured into the dom/slave world for Halloween this year, perhaps I could be persuaded to bend the rules for you. Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

christoofar 0 #19 November 28, 2004 well it'd be my apartment fo sho... i worked hard the last few years and now im in a really nice building and in a fairly nice city (Phila). Plus I haven't bothered with extending my rent insurance but this building must be at least 90 years old (used to be a department store)... so it's going nowhere.

Evelyn 0 #21 November 28, 2004 I would save my family and pets, then my rig. Funny that my rig is more important than family photos, buy it just is. I guess easier and lest costly to replace family photos than my rig. Hopefully other relatives have family photos, but they don't have my beloved rig.

jumpinjackflash 0 #22 November 28, 2004 Without reading any of the other responses? A year ago, my answer would've been my computer(s), laptop first, tower next, maybe the second laptop and other workstation after... In 04, I got a life. And though, I'd still go for the puters, not until I got my Rig the hell out of the inferno and my gear bag. It's nice after fifteen years of working, to finally have something else to focus on. Damnit, I love skydiving! Edited to Add: Oh SHit, one more thing, my GUITAR, but, that would've been saved with all of the living things, cuz it is living you know... blue skies, jjfIt's a gas, gas, gas...
