What would you put in a Seattle survivor kit?

My boyfriend is moving to Seattle and for Valentine's day I want to make him a Seattle Survivor kit. Some pieces are serious and some just silly. I have a few ideas but I was hoping to get some creativity from you fine folks. What would you put in it?What would you put in a Seattle survivor kit?
Sunglasses and suntan lotion, coffee mug, Gortex jacket, rain gear, rain hat, a sun lamp, a map of Seattle (free from the Visitor's bureau or print off with you computer if you don't have time to have one mailed to you) http://www.visitseattle.org/Essentials/S鈥?/a> a guide book to attractions, Seattle Magazine: http://www.seattlemag.com/. DVDs of movies or TV shows set in Seattle: http://www.squidoo.com/quiz-how-much-do-鈥?/a> , Mariners or Seahawks team caps or shirts and here is a link that might give you more ideas: http://www.squidoo.com/visit-seattle-was鈥?/a>
Rain jacket! It rains a decent amount here, but more people wear rain jackets than use umbrellas. The weather around here really isn't that harsh...winters get to around 30 degrees, summers to a high of around 80 to 90. Big earthquakes are rare here, so I wouldn't really worry about that.



If he likes hiking or being in the outdoors, some of that gear would also be good. There are a ton of great hiking and camping spots around here. Biking is also really popular and Seattle is a very bike-friendly city.



Coffee mug / tumbler would also be good - there is a coffee shop around every corner and most of them give you discounts if you bring in your own cup. Two or three Starbucks in one shopping center isn't uncommon here.What would you put in a Seattle survivor kit?
