if your house was burning what blus would you grab? - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

I'd grab my wife and dog. In that order.

Pets and make sure everyone is out, also get my 1963 Ford Falcon Convertible out, everything else can kiss my ass. Insurance can replace them... Also important papers and back up hard drives are in a fireproof safe, so they should be safe.

Yeah that was one of the first thing I purchased when my wife and I got our own place. These are necessary items.

I worked for a company in Canton Ohio that made safes (shouldn't be too hard to guess who they are

) so I got a "good deal" on a large fireproof safe.... not the rinky-dink you buy from Home-Depot.... this thing weighs a little over 800 lbs, and isn't moving anytime soon!!!!

aramis109 · 02-23-2009, 04:03 PM

Daughter, wife, dog. Insurance can eat everything else.

Oh, and then I'd drive my car INTO the house so it'd catch on fire too.

Monkey · 02-23-2009, 04:04 PM

Wallet and PC. Put some clothes on as well, lol

My parents have one of those huge things. My uncle is a mover and every once in a while he gets free things and a big safe was one. People broke into the house once and they tried to get into the safe. Man I didn't know that thing was lined with concrete. Awesome safe. Nobody got anything.

Blu-Benny · 02-23-2009, 04:07 PM

as a dad, i'll be getting my kids & wife and the dog out of the house 1st.

i'd maybe consider grabbing the deer horns that belong to my customers 2nd to save some business money.

i keep a list of all of my movies on a pen drive, i'd grab that and have the ins. company figure out the rest.

my parents bought one a couple of years ago. my dad has a full size dodge ram truck and boy did that thing bounce back up when we got the safe out of the bed!!!

i'm pretty surprised their old house (built almost 100 years ago) can support the weight of the thing.

Chris60119 · 02-23-2009, 04:26 PM

None. I'd go after things that can't be replaced. First would be my Les Claypool set lists and Dimebag Darrel autograph. Then photo albums.

JJ · 02-23-2009, 04:39 PM

I'd wake up from my nightmare, then go hug my stuff.

What a horrible question to pose!!!

I would drive my Acura in the garage, but not the 63 Falcon, to me it's not replaceable. It was my dad's...

Bizdady · 02-23-2009, 08:25 PM

After much serious thought and debate I have concluded to get my son and wifey to be out first. Then I would go guns blazing and rip the racks out of the wall and chuck them out through the balcony!

HAHAHAHAHA.

vamsilak · 02-23-2009, 08:52 PM

The very first thing I would like to do is take that fire out

hc666 · 02-23-2009, 11:17 PM

Wife and then my laptop and then my little metal box of things that could never be replaced.

Insurance would cover the blurays.

olds403 · 02-24-2009, 01:23 AM

I wouldn't worry about it, that is why I have homeowners insurance.
