Survival 101

Ok....imagine this if you will....you are stranded in a strange city (far from the place you call home and the people you call friends)....you have no money and no resources (and in my case you can't call Daddy to come help you out!!). What would you do? How would you survive? How would I eat and have coffee every morning? Where would I sleep? The list of questions could go on and on.......

....that is the question about the new USA Network's Burn Notice show! This is a spy show on the USA Network. I love everything spy....I don't know a lot about it, but it seems fascinating!

So...here's what I would do! Obviously, if you are running or hiding from someone or something you can't use your cell phone unless you are incredibly intelligent and can make something else from it...which I can't! So there is no one to call I'm on my own!!!

Food.....nothing wrong with a little beggin, especially from guys! They seem to like to help women out! There is also nothing wrong with hanging out behind restaurants looking for a little bit of extra food to possibly come your way! OR if you are really desperate head down to the local soup kitchen...there might actually some unsavory type people there to help you out on your mission (remember...this is tv!!).

Sleep.....youth hostels...YMCA (in foreign countries)...the local park underneath a bridge.....befriend someone really quick and give them some extraordinary sob story so they will take you into your home without really knowing you! Get arrested? Might not help the case, but hey it's free room and board, and they feed you!!

Money....go looking for spare change on the sidewalk....check out the floors of casinos (hey, I've done this and made a few bucks)....don't be ashamed to beg!.....steal.....find an under the table cash only king of job!

Finding my way home....."These boots are made for walkin', and that's just what they'll do...."

Seriously, I may not know exactly how to get out of a strange city with no resources, but I think I could do it! Watch Burn Notice to find out how main character Michael Westen figures it out! Show premiers June 28th at 10pm.
