It's not something I particularly want to survive through.

Many years ago I was "interviewed" by a friend who was doing a paper on nuclear war for a class that she had to take to get her BSN (which she still hasn't completed ... slacker!)
She was asking a bunch of questions, one of which was "what will you do if you survive a nuclear war?"
My answer at that time was "my plans for survival in a nuclear war involve an extremely large bottle of Jack Daniels and an extremely large knife." She didn't have a follow up question, so she had to draw her own conclusions. (The correct one, incidentally, is that the Jack is a trade good, and the knife is for defense, but people tend to have expectations based on their own belief systems.)
The answer was phrased in just that way largely for my potential amusement at the reaction of her professor. She was attending a
very Christian College that had only recently stopped being solely a theological seminary, and got itself accreditted as a "real" college, because the bottom dropped out of the Bible College market. She passed that class, anyway.
