Animals
Photos
Laptop
My pillow
As many books as I could grab

Hi folks, firefighter here.

Just get out. You are the only thing you can't replace.

I'm going to disagree. There are several things that cannot be replaced in a fire. Photos are definitely one, animals are another.

1. iPod touch
2. Cash Moneys
3. Cell Phone
4. Family
5. Watch - about 150$
Depending on situation - If she's over my girl friend

1. My Cell Phone, for contact.
2. Money, of course.
3. Laptop, I shall never leave you AG!
4. Pillow, soft and fluffy.
5. And last, if I ever had a Pet, or not, I'll bring my clothes. Don't wanna run out naked right?

And, uh, why Family? They could go out by themselves! If they know that there's a fire. :P

1. Family(i consider pets family, too)
2. Photos
3. Sleeping Bags(for the family and me!)
4. Tent(my super large one that will fit my family and pets hehe)
5. Phone
My laptop is new but not important i need my phone for communication, Duh.
If i had a 6. then 6. would be my laptop.

hmmmm,

1. My money
2. photos (album to be exact)
3.. My DS, games, ect. ( don't take me as a nerd/geek)
4. Family/pets (unless they already got out)
5. Some cloths laying around

why is everyone putting family as their fourth thing except for me??? and why would you choose cloths?

Ooops sorry i meant clothes instead of cloths (as you can see, they don't have an edit button... well atleast for my rank).

no, there isn't an edit button for anyone of anyrank so far. Cloths instead of clothes, i can actualy imagine a cartoon of that. a guy covering himself with cloths. lol.

Or a barrel!

Well, assuming I could take myself and anything on my person without that having to count:

1) My laptop (my sensitive information has not been backed up, so its loss would be highly undesirable)
2) My pads and folders of drawings.
3) My camera (the contents of the memory card in it has not been backed up, either.)
4) My medical notes and textbooks, because I can't replace most of those either.
5) My french horn (well, only because it's expensive! It's also very unwieldy so I may end up sacrificing it and claiming insurance instead.) Maybe I might take the piano instead, lol...obviously not, even though it's electric it still weighs in the order of 200lbs and I live on the 6th floor.

Gee...this isn't a very practical list. All up I'd be carting a good 70lbs of stuff out the door.

I'd only take three things:
My wife.
My pets.
A bag with all of my other things in it.

1) Some cash to buy food/or credit card
2) Laptop for entertainment
3) My AKAI MPC 5000
4) Bag full of clothes
5) The Family Photo Album (with me being silly)

Saying this stuff, this doesnt make us homeless does it?

i am surprised that i am the only one to include a tent to livei n so far...

I'd take,

1.Myself.(i don't want to be in there!)
2. my psp. (don't wanna be bored)
3.Money (I need food)
4.Pets (they have feelings too!)
5.Family (No, not the fat kid i don't really like)
