Backing up your important documents

In an emergency, it is important to have all of your personal documents with you, safe and sound.  This would include your copies of your birth certificates, passports, driver's licenses, identificaiton cards, medical records, medicinal needs, car titles, house title and deed, computer files, e-books, proof of insurances (health, house, car),  family pictures, social security card, and any other documents you find valuable and important.

I read an article stating that it would be best to have a flash drive that is water-proof, bomb-proof, and kid-proof.  This may seem a little extreme, but in the event of another "hurricane katrina" or other natural disaster, you would be guaranteed to have your important documents and files safe and accessible.  The flash drive that the author suggested is found here.

Bowfishing

I just learned that my younger brother is into bowfishing.  I've never done it or seen anyone do it, so I decided to do some research on the sport.

Here's a great website that describes the basics about bowfishing.  It seems like a neat sport, and seems more involved (and intriguing) than fishing with a rod.  I may have to try it some time!
