Shop Class: 12/1

Upon entering the Danger Room Shop, you'll find that Mac has set it up to look like an abadoned mine which has recently caved in.

"Today's assignment? Using the elements around you, find a way to escape from the collapsed mine entrance."

Mac pauses a second before saying: "Try not to blow yourself up this time O'Neill."

Sam shot a smirk over in O'Neill's direction. First thing she did was to pull some lint from her pocket and drop it, to see if there was a breeze that would indicate fresh air flow.

Completely oblivious to the mullet fluffing, Sam watched the lint fall to the ground in a straight line. No breeze. "Shoot."

After some thought, she grabbed one of the pulleys from where it was hanging along the side of the mine shaft. It came with a rope attached. She stood on one end of the rope and pulled up on the other, checking its sturdiness.

Satisfied with the rope, she used a pickaxe and cart rail spike to seat the pulley into the wall. She then looped the other end of the rope around one of the fallen wooden mine supports by the door and tied a series of clove hitches.

She pulled on the loose end of the rope (the one hanging in the pulley), and eventually (after a lot of grunting, groaning, cursing, and sweating) lifted the support out of the way just enough for her to crawl through , making her suddenly thankful she was still tall and scrawny.

Rogue looks around for some leftover dynamite. "See, if Jubes were here, this would be a lot easier," she muttered as she set something up that looks rather dangerous. She could use some help even though her mun isn't getting notifications and has to go to class now.

*DEATH, remembering that he cannot just walk through the walls, begins to dig himself out with a leftover camp spoon he's found on the floor. DEATH, afterall, is in no hurry.*

"Blow yourself up one time and you never hear the end of it..."

Jack takes a look around to see that the cave is just like it was last time.

"Any way I an get credit for last time? Good credit?"

"What about technique? It was rather special."

"But what if it involves chopsticks through people's brainstems? You've obviously never met Daniel.

...A friend of mine? Did he happen mention his name? And yeah, don't worry General Not-- I mean The General is..." Eugh. "He's a close genetic relation all right. We have some... issues. Not big on the love there."

After Mac'srequest (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhigh/409125.html?thread=19166501#t19166501), Sam sighed and headed over towards O'Neill.

"So, assuming you've forgotten to pack your gas-finding canary, what's next?"

"After that part." She rolled her eyes and began counting to twenty in Goa'uld under her breath.

She whispered, "If it helps, pretend I'm unconscious, Daniel's been captured, Teal'c's on recon, we're stuck in the mine on some godawful planet the MALP said was perfectly lovely, and you're all that stands between us getting out alive or not."

Bridge does a handstand so he can think of a way to escape.

Having come up with his idea, he then manages to pull something off that by all rights shouldn't have worked.

(ooc: sorry for the really, really lame response. still have six pages to go on my term paper!)

Anders hangs around waiting for Cally -- big surprise.

Actually, what is a big surprise is the sudden discovery that he has a mild case of claustrophobia.

"Dark closed spaces," he mutters, sweating a little bit. "Don't think they agree with me too much."

"Hey..." She opened the shades on the windows, letting in some of the morning light and scenery. "Is that good, or do you need to go to the clinic?"

She was pretty sure this was a new development.

Han surveys the stuff around him. He settles on the saltpeter and sulfur nearby and mixes some crude gunpowder. He packs it into an abandonm pringles can from lucnh. Using the flame from his lantern, he sets it off as a crude explosive to blow the blockage

*Wonders if he can get away with calling the Asgard for a transport out. Figuring not, he uses the remote he got to cover for his busted arm and programs the shovels laying around to start digging him out and the extra timbers to shore up the ceiling as the shovels go. He then leans back to have a snack and wait until the Sorcerer's Aprenctice Wannabee tools get him out.*

"Oh, crap." John looks around for that hot babe Carter and that equally hot babe Rogue for items. His SHINY LED flashlight seems dim in this enclosed space. He picks up a discarded pickaxe and starts probing the collapse gingerly.

This would be a lot better with some help. And a plan. So far, he's 0 for 2.

He notices that some of the support structures have been weakened, and there are several beams lying around and other mine-y things.

Using a mine cart, leverage, some support beams, and some old gas-powered helmets, John manages to create an opening large enough for him to escape without pissing off Carter or Rogue
