My girlfriend.

No seriously, my girlfriend.

No seriously, thought I was going to say my girlfriend again didn't you. My dishwasher, oh wait, that's my girlfriend.

Really, paper & pencil, to write notes about my travels.

Playing cards. Uno Cards.

I would probably take my PDA and hand-crank charger. I've got lots of good info available on my PDA, even without cell phone service.

Photos of family, something to take out to bring back good memories no matter how bad things may get.

Well My Hard Drive...

One day I will have a computer again for real... and my movies,my games, my software...

My real machine has like, a fortune of software and junk and all my e-books... from The complete Asimov Collection, to How to Move like a Ninja...

My photos Omg... My family, friends, Kids... My copy's of Pluckys avatars...

gps locs of over 2000 Sasquatch sightings

all my affiliate passwords so I can spam again as soon as I get back online.

Definitely my Hard Drive

But i'll delete Wow first... because there will be real mutants outside to occupy me 24/7 by the time we raid them all out in rl I'll never want an adventure again

An MP3 player. The more features it has, the better. But mainly, I'd just like an extremely well-made MP3 player that can hold lots and lots of songs.

Hi! As in normal times I could not limit myself to one item:
Dog, children's photos, handlotion, perfume, lipstick, chocolate,
address book, survival book, what plants are edible book, historical
fictional novel, playing cards. I know my kids would pack their game
machines (nintendo dsl, ipod) , games, and batteries. They probably would have severe withdrawal attacks. No computer..... just awful.
Mentally I think we are too advanced to be thrown in to the dark
unintelligent era. I think we would scavage our lives back, the survival of the fittiest and most intelligent. The numbers of people is so large (6.6 billion). Only the astroid impact that happens every 2 to 3 million years
would be the worst in my opinion. I also feel you shouldn't leave your land
property unless absolutely necessary, like it on not that is your spot.
Roming around on other peoples land could get you shot at, even today.

Probably for me a nessessity would be cigarettes and alcohol could use as a form of currency if the situation came down to that.

But an unnessisary thing that I would take would be The US Constitution (I have a little booklet) and my camera (digital small fits in pocket) and/or guitar to write songs about what was happening to keep me sane.

maybe if i was sentimental my blanket from when i was born, yes i still have that for the past 20 years, just to remind me of home.

I have seen a lot of great ideas here, so I won't repeat them.
I would love to bring a lot of stuff, but if I had to narrow it down to one personal item.............................................................................
A Transformer.

I suppose I'd have to take along my petrified alien head.


A volleyball and a wig might get a bit cumbersome.
