The peanut wins again.

I do usually have a kerchief. I ride a MC, so I always have one around in addition to the one I have in my pocket. I slipped up. :) But the knife was found! :thumbup:
 
All this bandana talk made me think of a short piece I did 20 years ago. The editing for this publication wasn't the best, so unfortunately they not only ommitted the pic that gave the article its title, but also the final few paragraphs and conclusion. Hope some of the examples of use I gave aren't considered taboo, I can only plead youthful ignorance! :D



Edit - Also noticed that they substituted 'milk bottle' for 'whisky bottle' in the final paragraph, a reference to an old cowboy film - the line is "Well strain it through your teeth!" if anyone knows the film! :D
 
Well, Carl and Thatotherguy have shined some light. I always have at least one when I am camping or hiking but have never bothered to carry one in town. Think ill give it a try, now as for the peanut..... :)

What with three girls no handkerchief or bandana, three things I always have, my peanut, a fire source ( usually a zippo ) and a handkerchief, comes in handy for so many things, it saved me from a bad case of heat stoke this past summer.
 
Every once in a while someone asks on my MC forum what the one thing they are forgetting in their kit is. I always say bandana. For all the reasons listed. Plus I fixed a broken rod and caught an 8lb bass once thanks to a kerchief. :)
 
dont have a peanut but i do have one of those sort of peanut sized tiny toothpicks that im coming to like pretty well.

i frequently though not always carry a bandana but its mostly to use as a sweatband in hot weather and a snotrag in cold weather.
 
A number of us were at the "beer tent" at Kristkindlemarkt a week or so ago. Long tables with 5 or 6 people on each side. Someone brought leberkaese sandwiches in and everyone at the table was eyeing them... Pulled out the trusty stag peanut and cut them into appetizer size pieces which disappeared in a hurry. Everyone watched, but no one batted an eye. Now this was at the Daley Center in downtown Chicago, and is another testament to the power and "people friendly" nature of the esteemed 'nut.

LKJW - great little story - proof again. So cool!

Jack Black - very neat!

Carl - I resisted for many years, but have been overcome by the power of the peanut. I actually just gave one to one of my sons.

Peace
Fred
