New gadgets

In preparing for the MPRC BBQ taking place on Saturday (you are coming, right?), I picked up some walkie-talkies yesterday. I'm like a kid with a new toy. [livejournal.com profile] sarahcarotte humoured me as much as she could, but she felt silly standing in the kitchen with her walkie-talkie while I chatted away to her from the living room.

In the last couple of pagan fests, I was doing security and was armed with these 2-way radios. Such fun, and I got to walk up to people and ask "Are you feeling secure? I'm here to boost your security, so if you feel insecure at all, I'm here to help."

I need the walkie-talkies so that we can coordinate the people waiting for attendees at the metro and leading them to the right spot in Angrignon Park. But it'll also be useful keeping tabs on [livejournal.com profile] sarahcarotte during our LARPing game.

Whee! New gadgets!

And useful when a friend needs a friend as sir hobbes discovered after the Awakening Isis festival this summer. My guy and I had car troubles and hobbes drove in front of us using flashers, headlights and speed to help us get home safely. It was a hair raising trip home!!! "Speed up" "Slow down" "put your flashers on" "run the light" "DON'T STOP!!"

Thank you Hobbes for helping Rick and I get home safely. (all that stress for aa $20 part)
