Regarding purified water... Rule # 1: Watch out for swimmies and floaties (c) some Philmont guy Rule # 2: If you see floaties, DO NOT BE ALARMED! Floaties are almost always ok. Rule # 3: Swimmies are the ones to be careful of- if it's swimming around it'll probably give you a hernia and raging diarrhea for 2 1/2 years and you may die. Regarding cookware and meals... Rule # 1: Spotties and Crawlies Rule # 2: Don't be alarmed by spotties, if it's not moving, it'll be ok. Rule # 3: Crawlies, however, require eater discretion. Some'll kill you, some won't, most are just extra protein. As a rule of thumb if it has an amount of legs that could be described as "more than 3" or "way to leggy to not be poisonous" you probably shouldn't eat it. Regarding the camp ground... Rule # 1: Keep an eye open for Growlies and Chirpies or Squawkies Rule # 2: Growlies ARE NOT your friend! Don't pet, feed yourself to, or harass the growlies as they are not, I repeat, your furry wilderness tree-hugging friends, they'll cut ya. Rule # 3: Chirpies and Squawkies are OK. I mean, they might poo on your head or something but they're not really a threat unless your tied to the ground out in a desert somewhere. There you have it. If you'll just follow these simple rules, you too can have a fun, safe, and rewarding camping experience... Just make sure you don't attract Wullums, and if your bum hurts a lot when you wake up in the morning, well- yea.
