WWMD? (what would MacGyver do?)

The squirrels aren't coming out today! The wind and the rain is hurrican like!

I have a friend, Kristy, just across the Indiana line. We were discussing this weather on the IM. She said she wished she had a boat. I told her I planned on taking the roof off over my back porch and using it for a floatation device. THEN we decided to make a list of items necessary for survival that would make MacGyver proud!
1. filter pitcher
2. duct tape (you can NEVER have too much duct tape)
3. large sheet of plastic
4. paper clip
5. safety pin
6. tube of super glue
7. rubber band

Of course one should ALWAYS carry a swiss army knife and a cell phone. You can take down a whole foreign government with those devices alone!
