one thing you always need around
What’s the one thing you gotta have around for emergencies?
My first thought was duck or duct tape, but then I remembered I like the extra $20 bucks hidden away in my wallet.
However the tape is important too.

Well, it depends on the emergency. If I were stranded out in the middle of nowhere, it's good to have my Remington 870 12-gauge shotgun, and a couple of boxes of shot shells to hunt food, and of course my Ruger Redhawk .44 magnum handgun for defense. |

Well it depends on what type of emergency, if its lights out for a long time, I can do anything with plyers, screwdriver, phillips, WD40 & ducktape. If its just lights out overnight, then I would need a 30 pack of budweiser & toliet paper |
