"A thermometer to measure spice temperature?"
Bwah. Given some particularly hot spicy things I'd like to avoid (ever taken a bit out of a Scotch Bonnet pepper? Yeah. Don't.), this sounds like a gadget to have.
In the Apocalypse, basal thermometers will be good for tracking fertility and such for the re-population. But honestly, just surviving should be motivation enough to be like the bunnies, regardless of ovulation cycles!
Tep, Hope things get better.(Not that I understand, exactly, cause I'm in the Fears She is An Undateable Freak corner with LisaH.)
LisaH, maybe we can put testers on our corner?
I wonder what my Apocaplyse Skill Set would be?
Depending on the circumstances of the apocalypse and the level of technology left afterward, all that military history I've been reading might actually come in handy.
Failing that, I used to help my parents in the garden, and I've successfully produced sparks from flint and steel.
I wonder what my Apocaplyse Skill Set would be?
I think my Apocalypse Skill Set would be to "prevent others from doing stupid shit." I imagine saying the following phrases a lot:
- Don't do that - it'll explode!
- Don't do that - we'll asphyxiate!
- Don't do that - it'll release radiation everywhere!
- Don't do that - all the crops will die and we'll starve!
- Don't do that - the beer won't ferment correctly!
Heh. Basil thermometer. :P
Well, considering where I live, my Apocalypse Skill Set will probably involve instantaneous vaporization.
Not very cheery, but ....
I wonder what my Apocaplyse Skill Set would be?
Erin, you're a Virgo -- you'll organize, organize, organize!
And because you're *Erin*, you'll look fabulous and hand out martinis while doing it.

And give everyone post-apocalypse makeovers! "Now, you don't need a moisturizer, because the fallout is already making your skin glow. But what we want to do is use a matte lip stain that really stands out...."
I wonder what my Apocaplyse Skill Set would be?
Mine is apparently Looting, with a side order of becoming one of the figureheads of the cult we will invariably start. Sure, I'm not much help with planting or taking care of livestock, but I can be charming and charismatic and convince other people to do it for us!
And be well-dressed, to boot!
