Camping Tips
Q. What equipment will I need to go camping?
A. You need a tent. Tent sizes are measured in units of men, as in “a three-man tent”; this tells
you how many men are required to erect the tent if they are all professional tent engineers. Even
then, the tent will collapse under unusual weather conditions, such as nightfall. You will also
need a hatchet, for the spiders, and a credit card, for the motel.
Q. Where should I go camping?
A. The United States has a spectacular national park system with millions of unspoiled acres where
wildlife is protected by federal laws. Avoid these places. You want a commercial facility with a name
like “The Stop ‘n’ Squat Kountry Kamp-ground,”
where large animals cannot fit through the 6-inch gaps between the Winnebagos.
Q. How much food should I take?
A. A lot. You’ll be providing food not only for your family, but also for the entire raccoon community.
When I was a boy in rural Armonk, our garbage cans were regularly terrorized by a gang of brilliant
criminal raccoons. I recall being awakened at 3 a.m. by loud noises and looking out the window to
see, by moonlight, my father, a peace-loving Presbyterian minister, charging around in the bushes,
wildly swinging a baseball bat and saying non-Presbyterian words.
Of course, he did not get the raccoons; you NEVER get the raccoons.
Q. What if I get lost?
A. If you don’t have a compass, stand very still and listen very carefully, until you hear this sound:
“eh-eh-eh.” That is Canada. Whatever you do, don’t go that way.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a WONDERFUL WEDNEDAY people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁

“A new survey found that 46 percent of doctors have used Google or Yahoo to diagnose
their patients’ symptoms. Yeah, last time I got sick, my doctor was like,
‘I’m sorry to tell you this, but you have ‘Server Not Responding.'” -Jimmy Fallon
“Two women from Minnesota are seeking to file discrimination charges after the police
were called on them for breastfeeding at a public pool. Even worse, their kids were
charged with illegally bringing in an outside beverage.” -Seth Meyers
“The company that makes Ritz crackers has recalled 16 products, including Ritz cheese cracker
sandwiches, over concerns of salmonella. There’s definitely a moment when you’re feeling sick
and you’re wondering, ‘Is this because I consumed salmonella or because
I consumed an entire box of Ritz cheese cracker sandwiches?'” -James Corden
