    Hitchhiking with facial hair

    I've heard some people say it's better to hitchhike clean shaved. Is that your experience? I have a small beard and I am trimming it properly. Does it make much of a difference? Cheers

    Life Straw/Water Filtration

    Hey all, was wondering if anyone has used this or owns one of these? It seems like it could come in handy in an emergency or to simply drink out of a pond. For $15 it might be a good investment to prevent getting sick or worse. What are your thoughts on this? Is there anything on the market...
