    I have (1) BB, for now. Planning to buy a couple more next year, for back-ups and loaners. I can't really preach the wonders of hammocking, if I can't put someone in a hammock for a night, can I?

    I got it bad!

    OK, I don't own one blackbird. I don't own two blackbirds. I don't even own three blackbirds.

    I am now the proud owner of BlackBird #4.

    Each one of them has their own personality for me, because each one is made from different fabrics of differing widths. Brandon was kind enough to do a little "testing" of these different fabrics, so I have 3 completely unique blackbirds, quite unlike any other Blackbirds out there.

    What is #4? A stock Blackbird. I had to see what all the hype was about. I hope I like it.

    I hear they make medicine for that...

    I'm surprised that there isn't a category for "approaching Cannibal/Fin-like fanaticism".

    I have one BB and maybe one day I'll have a Yeti. Unfortunately So. Ga just doesn't get that cold.

    Don't you mean "fin-aticism"?

    OK, so now I'm lumped in with Cannibal? Yikes!

    Anyone who has hiked with me knows that if I like something, I am probably going to have at least 3 or 4 of that thing on me at any given time. It's a problem that I'm working on. On the other hand, it tends to benefit those on hikes with me as I usually shed those "extras" to the nearest outstretched hand. An extra BB or two, not likely to be given away, but I guess you never know for sure, do you?

    I don't know about medicine, but they DO make neat little jackets for it. Couldn't find the wrist cuffs, though...they just had buckles where your hands were supposed to come out. Pretty cool how they keep your arms from flapping around in the hammock b/c the buckles attach behind you.

    Maybe if I put some CCF in the sleeves...

    I like Cannibl's idea for a "Bluebird". A Blackbird done in Carolina Blue.
