I miss that alarm clock so much! I used it for years, and when it died I tried so many replacements that all stink!

I am almost embarrassed to admit I have been using the same electric alarm clock for 40 years. Still works fine. I've gone through a bunch of wind-up back-up alarm clocks, but not that electric one with the big red numbers that glow through the night.

i got a great pocket knife from walmart from the sporting goods counter. I think it was less than $5 but it compares favorably with a $30 Gerber knife that I got as a gift.

this one is similiar to what I bought:

I have that Timex Indiglo too, love it, still works great. Jansport small backpack bought in the 70's or 80's, indestructible, even the zippers still haven't messed up.

Nothing really. I got the knife out to work out a jammed shotgun and it fell through the slats of the floor into the muddy marsh below. Retrieving it would have meant snorkeling under the blind...Not worth it in January.
