Two Tents?

In his quasi-awake state this morning, between the time the alarm went off and the time he really intended to get up, the STP said, "Two tents."
"Two tents?" I repeated. We only have one tent. Or was he having a Moses/Elijah vision?
"No, too tense."
"As in too much stress? Wound too tight?" Maybe it was just a description of how his day was starting.
"No, two tens."
"As in ten plus ten? Twenty? Or ten times ten? One hundred?"
"No, two tenths."
"Two tenths? Like a fraction?"
"Yes, two tenths of the order."
"What order?"
"Two bullet proof vests and eight guns. The vests are two tenths."
"Oh."
I didn't tell him it would have been clearer if he had just said 'one fifth' from the beginning. Then the only question would have been 'one fifth of what?'
Now the question remains: What exactly was the STP dreaming about and could it be related to the fact that he and Booger finished up their hunter safety course at the firing range last evening? Dave hit the target ten times. Boog hit it three times. Three tenths. Maybe two bullet proof vests are a good idea.

why do they need 8 guns?
8 guns + 2 guys= not enough hands.
Maybe they will be using their feet?
an intriguing dream talk indeed.
