Nice image, I like it.

Equipment means so little, it's more important to have something to say.

One of my favorite storytellers, Robert A. Heinlein, once wrote of a pioneering hero, actually two heroes, whose only required equipment was a hunting knife. With that knife, he could do everything that he needed to do to survive - hunt, fish, build shelter, make clothes, self-defense ... I've often wondered what I would choose to have if only a single piece of equipment was allowed. That would be it, a good, solid, hunting knife.

I'd choose my laptop.

Yes, I'm boring.

It makes me feel as if I'm on top of a highrise building or a skyscraper.

Wait...I hate that feeling!

See how good you are? ;)
