What happened to these? You know, the matches that cowboys used to strike on their pants and boots and stuff. My Wife bought something called "Greenlight" matches that are absolute [censored]. They are too short and don't strike "anywhere."

Be safe,

When I used to spend alot of prolonged time outdoors I carried three forms of fire starters in my pack for safety. UCO Survival Stormproof Matches, a Bic lighter, and a magnesium fire starter. Bic (as long as it had fluid) never failed me.

If you trim off the white tips, you can make pretty awesome meth as well

So you make meth with match heads and sinus medicine?

Whether you think you can or you can't, you're right
