Wallet, Keys, Phone, contact lenses.

Handful of clothes.

Maybe my laptop, but most if not all of my important data is stored on the cloud.

I don’t have really any heirlooms anymore, I would have said my father’s St. Christopher medallion but that was already stolen from my house a few years back.

So just what I need for the immediate, everything else I can replace.

most stuff really is replaceable.  I mean back in the day people would say pictures and what not but in today's world....all that is easily backed up. 

If I was legitimately evacuating my house? Basic toiletries and clothes to survive a couple days.  Definitely would make sure I doubled up on my footwear.  My phone and two of those power packs for the phone to charge on the go.   Only real item a take would be to grab my fire safe box.  That is really about it.  In it, are my deeds, titles, wills, power of attorneys.....all in one handy location.  Everything would fit into my travel backpack.   I would be go to go. 

I would then I have to fight with my wife and kids about all the junk they "needed" to bring.

I keep a go bag packed for my wife and myself. It has all the essential items necessary minus cash/identification for 3 days, which are kept separately but easy to grab. I think it was about $150 to put together both of them including high quality backpacks that I shopped around for and got on clearance for $10 apiece. Clothes are light and meant to be layered and food is rotated out every 6 months. I can be out of my house and on the move in less than 3 minutes if need be. Take the time and put one together for yourself and anyone else in your family. In an emergency, you will forget things that are essential. It may seem a little overboard, but the peace of mind is worth it IMO.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
