#2 - getting the truck out of the ditch without a winch. Stretch a rope and use two lashed logs to wrap the rope, tightening it up and pulling on the truck. You do what you gotta do.
Notice there's only a little bit of water in the left one, looks about the same amount of something in the right. A confident man would fill them up and freeze them.
I learned this in the scouts almost 40 years ago. Its a very simple, manual, winch. They also taught us to never straddle the rope when using it because if the rope snaps, you could become a eunuch or a pirate...
#6 Geese have a knob on the front of their wings and it is hard as fuck. The wings have huge, strong muscles. A good shot from that knob can break your forearm. Aunt Bertha's domestic gander came after me like that because he thought I was messing with the goslings. Too bad for him I had a broom in my hand. I choked up a bit on the bristle end and swung for the fence. He never came near me again; in fact he liked to keep a building between me and him.
