Not a bad survival kit. It just needs a firearm (I prefer the 1911), ammo, and a good knife.

Where’s the Roman live honking goose to warn you when the enemy breeches the perimeter?

Never mind. Federal bankers don’t know what a perimeter is. And they’d probably wreck the goose by trying to squeeze fois gras out of the poor bird.
