SF - If you only have three to five items--

**Maharlika** · January 25th, 2008, 04:26 PM

Imagine:

A fire has started in your building and you have five minutes to evacuate. What 3 to five items of clothing in your closet ( perhaps your most valuable ) would you take and why?

Somebody is bound to say it, so it might as well be me.

Clothes can be replaced, life can't. My ass would be out of the house so fast....

If you put more than 1 item in each number and number it 1 to 5 it doesn't mean that is 5 items.

I know-- I know.. but they're all in one garment bag.

**DocHolliday** · January 25th, 2008, 06:02 PM

Hard call. Tempting to make it a list of expensive stuff, but I tried instead to list the stuff I like best/means the most to me.

World's best blazer, by Oxxford
RLPL Mackay
Pink knit tie from Charvet
Grandfather's gray sportcoat
Pair of inexpensive suede chelseas I got from Yoox or maybe an H&K shirt

I'd grab my watch boxes for which I'm seriously under insured. Let the rags go up!

There are any number of pieces of luggage in my closet, wouldn't it be just as fast to chuck more things in a bag and run?

	THE PURGE Doc's enormous closet clearout -- many makers, many sizes, all awesome. NEW: PART 3: The classic Brigg briefcase PART 2: Sportcoats and suits and other goodies \| PART 1: Shirts, trou, shoes, more Salvation doesn't lie within four walls. I'm too serious to be a dilettante and too much a dabbler to be a professional. Even the most miserable life is better than a sheltered existence in an organized society where everything is calculated and perfected. By 1965 there'll be total depravity. How squalid everything will be.

	NWT Canali suit 44L, NWT Hickey-Freeman trench 44R (Made in England) "People see me, and they see the suit, and they go: 'You're not fooling anyone', they know I'm rock and roll through and through. But you know that old thing, "live fast, die young?" Not my way. Live fast, sure, live too bloody fast sometimes, but die young? Die old. That's the way- not orthodox, I don't live by "the rules" you know."
