|  | | | Hey just because of a simple mixup between a katana and a machete doesn't mean you can talk to me like that.
There is no character sheet, and there is no persona, it's me your talking to and it's me your offending, so just cut it out.
Yes, I do own a machete, big deal. I do know the difference between them, I just got the names mixed up. I'm no expert on swords, and I don't claim to be.
I use it to cut through weeds, not as a barometer for my intellectual credibility as an explorer.

| | | | I've got to say, I never go exploring without my motion sensitive proximator. Without it, I wouldn't be able to proximate a damn thing.
I also always carry 30 lbs of acetone binded nitrotoluenediglyceride putty, in case I need to blow open a door, or someone that I've proximated.
Obviously when I explode someone I need some protection from the blast. Thats when I reach for my water proof, reality proof NBC suit, which I have in various shades, including mauve, coral, 'periwinkle mist'.
When I need to be stealthy, and don't want to 'splode anyone, I use my swiss army katana/machete/survival knife. It has so many blades on it, that sometimes I grab one by mistake. But thats ok, because I'm always wearing my Kevlar Razor Wire Gloves (tm): Now with added protection against katana/machete/survival knife cuts.
All of this stuff, except for the doorknob, fit in my black utility belt, which I wear over my Kevlar Stabvest, Kevlar Stabpants, and Kevlar Stabtighty-whiteys.

| | | | Well I agree, but I must admit, whenever I go exploring I make sure I never forget to just wear normal clothes that offer me no protection against dangerous chemicals. I am much happier inflicting serious injuries upon myself than I am spending $20 on an NBC suit.
I make sure I bring along a cheap $3 flashlight that will fail on me right in the middle of an exploration so that I can experience the thrills of breaking my leg in a pitch black room.
Obviously when I brake my leg I need some protection against the shards of flying bone, so I use the powers of my mind to make a forcefield around me that can capture all the gore. The forcefield comes in various shades, including mauve, coral and 'periwinkle mist'.
When I need to be stealthy, and don't want to be seen in the chic hipness of my college campus attire, I don a bunch of rags I found under the bonnet of my uncles van, tied together using garden string I found while playing with my toys in my grandparents garden.
All this stuff, except for the forcefield, fits in the pockets of my beige corduroy pants, which I wear up to my armpits with my tie and shirt tucked in under the belt.

Hehehehehe, every time I read Caputs post and then mine I just start laughing uncontrollably. 
And yeah, I'm fed up with having my head stuck so far up my ass that I can't even take a little teasing, so why not have a some fun. 
But before I go WAAAAY off topic on a power trip just because someone finally laughed at one of my jokes, I'll hop straight back on topic with something really relevant and cool. Like a noble knight hops on to his worthy steed.
*hop*
I just bought this neat little thing called an abseiling kit. It's a small package that contains a harness, carabiners, and safety buckle thing. It's for escaping buildings through the window. You attatch the safety buckle to something in the room, then run the rope through that and through your harness, and simply abseil down.
That's total bullshit but in my absence of having something to say I just typed that up.
Does such a thing exist though? Is there any place I could get something
similar?

| | | | An abseiling 'kit' would be rope, harness, carabiners, and a figure eight.
Are you thinking of something else, like a rescue decender or something?

| | | | They do make 'abseiling' kits, but its called a 'firefighter escape kit'. The contents are pretty much what you'd imagine, thought the rope they include is thin thin stuff. http://www.cmcrescue.com/cmcrescue/dept.asp?dept_id=3000
