if your house was threatened to burn down, what are the 3 things (possessions) you would take with you that would fit in the car.

this is actually kind of hard because all my stuff is in storage so i don\'t even remember what i own any more

i have a Dead silk screen i couldn\'t part with

green stuff

haha, you\'re nuts. where are you going to stash it when the coppers and firemen show up?

car keys so i can move it away from the house
wallet so i can have access to money for a hotel room
cell phone so i inform my parents and insurance company of the fire

everything else is covered by insurance and can be replaced.

girlfriend and dog aren\'t really possessions, right?

nah, i would assume if they can get out by themselves they don\'t count. car keys would have been good, but i\'d rather see my car burn and not get insurance for it than to deal with it anymore.

wallet would have been good to.

actually now that i think of it i would have to grab my photography collection (every picture i have pretty much ever taken) i\'d be really pissed if i lots all of those!

1. pets
2. data
3. pexbox

wallet and car keys, to me at least, are as assumed as clothes on my back. cats and dog definitely wouldn\'t be able to get out by themselves, so, they\'re on the list.

see i would hope my two dogs would be smart enough to get out. i guess i wouldn\'t want them roaming around not being leashed tho

Why would they specifically be showing up at my place ? You know something I don\'t ? And even if they did show up in the middle of an evacuation you really think they are going to do a random Terry frisk ? They don\'t have time for that stuff. It isn\'t like they stay at your place why you pack up, they tell you you have to get out and move on to the next house. They don\'t remove you on the spot.

And I assumed cell phone wallet and things that can be put in a pocket was a given.

I figured the question was about the stuff you would have to actually make an effort to get in your car to evacuate.
