Thomas' comment about my soul wrenching questions made me think about house fires. So. If your house was burning down and you could only save ONE thing, what would it be?

RULES: Must be a material item. There are no children, pets, elderly grandmothers or baby mice in the house. You are not allowed to be the more righteous person and run outside, forsaking ALL earthly possessions. You must choose one in order to get the door open and get out.

Are you taking introductory psyche or something?

Are we just your laboratory mice?

Maybe you got a new job at a marketing firm?

Are we going to get cut in on this?

If we give you two answers, do we get paid double?

I have a giraffe coffee cup. I love it. I shall rescue it, no matter what.

You are all being studied. You will be judged by your answers. Giving two answers is against the rules, and thus shall label you as a rebel. Any profit made from this thread will be spent on shoes.

Weeel, now you know what julieannie would save ,her favorite pair of heeeeeeeeeeeeels :D

hmm, graciousreign, I am not sure, that's a good question, probably my bible. I've written an awful lot in it and I don't want to lose it all. I could live without everything else, replace it someway, somehow, but the words God's shown me I would want to keep with me. Whatever I saved, I would pray it would be the item I could best serve God in the future with.

I sure hope (and pray) my place don't burn down now :D

What about your eyeballs collection, ugly :D

And, just so you know, Hisgraciousreign, the word 'collection,' is singular, so, it's just one thing :D

What, your phone isn't permanently in your back pocket, thereby making it an article of clothing and included when saving yourself? If this isn't the case, it should be. We might both get butt cancer, but at least we'd have our cell phones AND laptops.

Butt cancer is nothing to make light of. Especially when it results in buttectomy. This has become epidemic...

Green's answer reminded me that I have an old old bible I think goes back to some family before even living in usa. It's too fragile to really even turn the pages but I wish I could because it has all these writings. Anyway, I'd grab that.

For just sentimental reasons, I'd get all my photos. One day I can show my children a printed photo taken with real film!

honestly, other than my family, i'd be trying to get all my cats accounted for and not worried about the stuff. i have so many cats i wouldn't have time to go for anything else, plus i'd have to go back after my son at least twice while he went in for his laptop or ipad or something.

hmm... i guess i should grab the kids laptop; keep him from going after it himself.

All results from previous experiments have been destroyed, ironically, in fires.
