I guess I’m doing my part. Another slew of new camping gear is on the way! I selected several things I’ve had sitting in my Amazon cart for months. Maybe I’ve accepted a little restraint in my impulse buying? Doubtful.

Here’s the run-down. 100′ of 7-strand paracord. Very strong, light, and tough. Reminds me of a quote from “the Boondock Saints”:

Connor: [picking out weapons and gear] Do ya know what we need, man? Some rope.
Murphy: Absolutely. What are ya, insane?
Connor: No I ain’t. Charlie Bronson’s always got rope.
Murphy: What?
Connor: Yeah. He’s got a lot of rope strapped around him in the movies, and they always end up using it.
Murphy: You’ve lost it, haven’t ya?
Connor: No, I’m serious.
Murphy: Me too. That’s stupid. Name one thing you gonna need a rope for.
Connor: You don’t f-in’ know what you’re gonna need it for. They just always need it.
Murphy: What’s this ‘they’ shit? This isn’t a movie.
Connor: Oh, right.
[picks up large knife out of Murphy's bag]
Connor: Is that right, Rambo?
Murphy: All right. Get your stupid f-in’ rope.
Connor: I’ll get my stupid rope. I’ll get it. This is a rope right here.
