........Just to take this off the topic. We will be
going on a Scout campout this weekend. It is predicted to be in the 20's
at night. I will have my trusty LED light and a bottle in the tent!!!! I
will have a spare sleeping bag in the car - in case I miss the bottle.

It would have been better had you stayed on topic. Is it me, or is this
too much information? Now I'm picturing all these little scouts
following your lead and having pissy bedclothes somewhere in the woods..
ugh..
Isn't it usually perverts that become scout leaders (gymnastic coaches,
priests and volleyball coaches) anyway?

If you were a Scout you would have known. When was the last time you got
out of bed and it at 19 degrees F? You would be looking for serious
options. Keep in mind, this could happen to you if an ice storm hits
and takes the power lines down.
If any of those "cry babies" in New Orleans had any Scout training, they
would not be crying on TV, begging for food and water. "Be prepared" is
the Scout motto.

===================
I've been in Florida most of the last 18 years so not much chance of my
needing to pee at 19 degress in a black out.
I was in the military and we used to pee in bottles in the back of the
gamma goat goin' down the autobaun in the FRG. And we used to empty it
on the road as we went. But I don't see how I would think anyone would
find that interesting, just necessary.
Scouting always seemed so gay to me.
I think everyone should be required at least one year of military
service. I seem to remember most of the ones who dropped out of basic
training in the cold dawn hours (mostly) were from the south. Too bad.
If they waited a few more hours, it really warmed up (into the 30's and
40's) most of those (high drop out days).
