This can was left in the camper since last summer and bulging weird. Decided I probably didn't want to drink it. The can opener opens that part of a can too (I made a mess).

I've heard that fishing lures are designed to catch the fisherman. If it also happens to catch fish, that's a happy bonus. I've found that to be true. This one caught me recently.  :facepalm:

These Rooster Tails have proven to be reasonably good for catching creek bass, if they don't catch a snag first!

Slightly odd mini-challenge completion. My old Coleman messkit from my BSA days (not made in the USA, unfortunately) lives in this sailor's laundry bag, which my first pack of MREs came in. For some reason, I started throwing the spare accessory packs and stuff in there, and I just never stopped. I guess I'm set if the stores ever run out of TP again.

Nice kit!  :like:

This is my USGI M1942 mess kit. Stainless steel, dated 1961.

I might have to dig mine out and check the date now.

I have one of those doctor knives, but a challenge is a challenge...

Indeed it is! Good job splitting that pill.  :tu:
I wonder if the serrated edge on my '08 would be an advantage. I suspect it might. Maybe I'll try it on an aspirin tomorrow.

I did try the serrated edge on an aspirin. It seems to require less effort than a plain edge, or maybe it's just my imagination. Half of the aspirin broke into pieces, though. Results: inconclusive.
It does work though, so that's good.

One more day to go!  :tu:
