When the apocolypse comes I'm going to be everyone's best friend.
I got an email yesterday from one of my archaeology profs telling me that indeed there is going to be a three day course next reading break for those of us who wish to learn some flint knapping. That's right, I'm going to learn how to make my very own flaked stone tools. So, once civilization has been destroyed you will all be coming to me, begging me to make you a hide scraper or new point for your atlatl.
But this isn't a hokey new-agey class. It's actually experimental archaeology, so we'll also be learning about things like deposition patterns and raw material sourcing.
Basically what it boils down to is that I'm a huge geek. Period. And that's great.

oh vanessa, thank you for being you.
I know some knots!!!
also, if you give me dry wood and plenty of newspaper I can make a fire, 68% of the time.
When the apocolypse comes I'll still be your friend whether you make me a hide scraper or not.
Though my atlatl could use a little TLC....
Ha! Seems like when the shit and the fan finally come together Matt and I could form an un-stopable team. What with his fire and knot skills and my stone tools we will be the coolest kids on the radioactivly glowing block.
Anyone else got some survival skills up their sleeves that they could contribute? Maybe we can form our own tribe...
i can...uhh...
uhh...
well, i'm godammed bendy. can YOU put your head on your shins?
fuck you guys and your survival skills. i can't even take the lid off of pickle jars by myself.
Kerria, you can join our band because of your mad art skills. You'll be able to decorate our stuff. And that is totally important.
And you can join because we love you. Even though you swore at us.
