What Weapon Would You Bring?


     My friend, Robin, just saw the film, Safety Not Guaranteed.  A newspaper reporter sees this ad, "Wanted:  Someone to go back in time with me.  Must bring your own weapons.  Safety not guaranteed."
     Robin asked me, "What weapon would you bring?"
     Without a pause, I said, "Liquid Paper."
     "Good idea," he replied. 
     "What weapon would you bring?"
     Robin sighed and thought long and hard - like a good weapon.  "If I had to bring a weapon," he said, "a little printer that makes business cards -- like Jim Rockford had.  He never used his gun unless he had to.  He kept it in a cookie jar, for Pete's sake.  But he'd always be making business cards.  He kept a little business card printer in the glove box of his car.  It gave him an air of authority.  Oh...and a clipboard.  With a business card and a clipboard, I would be automatically imbued with competence and authority.  And I could use the clipboard for bludgeoning...if I had to."
