Who are your "emergency contacts"?
As in, who do you specify people contact should something happen to you?

My university wants me to have some listed...so I listed both my parents, my cousin, and a close friend of mine.

1. When I was going to college in NYC

I listed 9/11 followed by then Mayor Koch. I figured I wanted people who could do something about my emergency.:P

3. I am going to remember that
and list 911 next time I am asked. I mean, what the hell will my father do in case of an emergency, really? He is halfway across the country.

2. It depends
If it's an accident, my wife or my brother

If I'm murdered, call the Brawling Bastards motorcycle club :P

4. Nobody
HR-niks always bug me, but I tell them that I don't have any family. And I certainly wouldn't bother any friends with my troubles.

5. For my kids, their grandfathers. But since they live out of town I added some
family friends who live nearby.

For myself, still the grandfathers and also the husband.
