A bottle of water, a small towel, and a flashlight...

[spinbaby]

Direct from Fox Noise:

"Since mass transportation is the next attack, when you travel to work have with you, a bottle of water, a small towel and a flashlight."

1. Wait - I thought it was duct tape and plastic sheeting ...

I can't keep up.

[NV Whino]

15. Have to have duct tape

That's what you use to repair the bridge.

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. And how will those keep bridges from collapsing?

[Bluebear]

4. You may be a little thirsty on the way down

:shrug:

[Critters2]

10. !

:spray:

And you're bound to get wet--thus the towel.

[malaise]

6. Actually I suggest a parachute

since it is way more likely that a bridge will collapse before any of their bogus terra, terra 'spread fear non-stop' events occurs.

[Canuckistanian]

9. I guess that's what the towel is for

I don't know about you, but I can whip up a parachute in 0.4 seconds strong enough to gently float a vehicle to the ground.

Then use it as a change of underwear.

[Hayabusa]

12. Don't you know

that a towel is one of the most useful things to have in the galaxy?

[Sal Minella]

19. ...wonder if pet carriers for babelfish are on e-bay....

[Blue Belle]

26. It's a "Must Have" for Every Galaxy Hitch Hiker...

:)

[malaise]

28. LOL

:rofl: :rofl:

[spinbaby]

11. It has nothing to do with the bridge collapse

It has to do with the attack on mass transportation that some terror expert at Fox Noise expects within 90 days.

One wonders if he knows something.

[GreenPartyVoter]

20. He knows that it will be a dark, sweaty, thirsty event?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

3. the portable form of duct tape?

And what does the collapse of an old bridge have to do with mass transport attacks?

[bobbolink]

25. "And what does the collapse of an old bridge have to do with mass transport attacks?"

F E A R

:scared:

[blues90]

5. What was holding this bridge together ,rupub duct tape ?

[Johonny]

7. and

a small TV, a satellite dish, a power generator so you can keep watching FOX news.

[donsu]

8. agree with you - shit can happen in the blink of an eye

it always pays to be prepared for the unexpected and with today's climate changing.......

[Gormy Cuss]

13. Well, traveling BART I always have a flashlight

and usually a bottle of water, the former in case of an emergency shutdown when the train is in the Transbay tube or other tunnel, the latter because I like to drink water. I don't think I'll add a towel to the bag.

[appal_jack]

14. who at Fox is a Hitch Hiker's Fan?

Always carry a towel, huh?

Can alien highway crews be far behind?
:yoiks:

I think that Fox Noise is a Vogon plot anyway.

-app (mostly harmless)

[kineneb]

17. great minds? ...you beat me! n/t

[appal_jack]

27. heh!

Looks like Hayabusa has us both beat.
:D

Good to know that there are fellow/sister Hitch hikers around though...

-app

[suffragette]

31. Maybe we will need the towel to wrap around

our ears and block the sound of the Vogon poetry from Fox. Actually, that starts to put their reporting in context - bad as a Vogon poem.

[kineneb]

16. why does this sound like advice out of "Hitchhiker's Guide"

...with big, bold letters on the cover, saying "Don't Panic"...

do you know were your towel is?

[likesmountains 52]

18. What's the small towel for? To wave surrender? I don't get that part..

[trof]

30. Maybe you're supposed to 'throw it in' or something?

Just give up?
I dunno.

[FormerOstrich]

21. What do I do with the...

tuna and dryed milk???

[spinbaby]

22. Roll it up in your plastic sheeting

And wrap it with duct tape.

[gatorboy]

23. Yeah but eventually they'll want to take that water away as well.

You know, just in case.

[hootinholler]

24. Just don't carry the towell by wearing it on your head and

Don't fly with the water.

-Hoot

[junkiebrewster]

29. maybe...

Hold a wet towel over your face as a gas mask?

:shrug:

[A HERETIC I AM]

32. "Ill take "Things you need at night if you have an Outhouse' for $200, Alex"

sorry.

[OzarkDem]

33. Boosting sales for Bed, Bath & Beyond?

Didn't the duct tape one work wonders for Home Depot?

[Katherine Brengle]

34. Isn't that from the Hitchhiker's Guide?

I feel like I'm living in a parallel reality...
