If you’re whitewater kayaking, it’s not uncommon to have a knife accessible from your PFD.

It can be used to cut any ropes you might be tangled in or (worse case) cut the PFD.

In general, having a knife with you is useful in most emergency situations (and a throw rope, pin kit, plus knowledge of how to use them).

… and I want my headphone jack, back.

Thanks for sharing the OSMand recommendation and configuration.

I’ve got a hike coming up, so I just installed it - wow, it’s fantastic. It captures the elevation change and distance. I thought I’d need to limp along with Google maps, but OSMand is sooo much better (and open source).

edit: a word

My uncle had a pitbull named “kitty kitty”.

Atleast that’s what he dog thought, as when my uncle would feed the cats and dog, he’d always call the cats by saying "here, kitty, kitty… ".

… my third, but still special.

(… as I look at my subscribed communities…) What Trump memes?

… "For English, say ‘God bless Trump’ …”

Fixed that for you /s (… I really want off this apocalyptic ride)
