You're all set then. With all those old folks around, you can just steal their shit while they're in the bathroom... unless they've got flowmax or something.

Are you saving them to be your survival rations? Yum, yum, yum?

Shawnee123 · 01-15-2010, 12:51 PM

Huh? I had no idea! What about Jellystone, is Jellystone safe?

xoxoxoBruce · 01-15-2010, 12:53 PM

Better than gallstones, but not safe, no.

"I am advising all State officials around Yellowstone National Park for a potential State of Emergency. In the last week over 252 earthquakes have been observed by the USGS. We have a 3D view on the movement of magma rising underground. We have all of the pre warning signs of a major eruption from a super volcano. - I want everyone to leave Yellowstone National Park and for 200 miles around the volcano caldera."

A family member thinks I'm insane because I've got GoBags stashed at different locations (Family, friends, work) around the city. At home I've got sufficient supplies to keep the 4 of us rolling along for more than a month. While we can't prepare for every possibility, my family does have a basic gameplan in case of some emergencies.

If power and communications are lost during working hours, who goes where? Who goes for the kids? How? If we can't reach the house, where do we meet? If the whole valley is jacked, where do we go?

I know I will probably never use any of what I've prepared but I seriously doubt I'll be on my deathbed and regret having wasted time and energy on the preparations.

Fuckin' A, locked and loaded.

Eh, I'm not a complete nutter living in a shack in the woods, but I would like at least a fighting chance at keeping my family alive if the shit ever really hits the fan.

and well, to tell the truth, some of the things I've got are a hell of a lot of fun to play with .

Good for you, Lookout. I'm sure your family is grateful for your planning and prepwork.

I guess that's where I fail then -- I'd rather be dead if the shit hits the fan. The only reason I'm still alive is I can't think of anything else to do.

I'm same as you Pie. My emergency plan for emergencies will be a gun with 1 bullet. Maybe I should hoard prescription painkillers too, just incase I mess up with the gun.

Hey, why you dragging me into this?

In general, we Earthlings are coming together to help these folks in their time of great need. Why weren't we there before? Why weren't we able to help them build houses with rebar? Why weren't we there to ensure that they had a couple days of survival supplies?

And why are we so generous to these people, and we don't want to help out our neighbors when it comes to the healthcare issue? Is anybody worrying about the cost of helping Haiti the way some of us are worrying about the cost of the proposed healthcare bill?

Bullitt · 01-16-2010, 12:25 PM

Because we tend to only act when we are being affected by something physically or emotionally. This loss of life affected us emotionally so we reacted with aid.

Because this is an emotional hook. A baby in a collapsed in a building??? OMG here's my debit card.

Why weren't we there helping them rebar? Because it is not our fucking job to go do everything for everybody. Why didn't we make sure they had survival supplies? It isn't our fucking job. I'm more interested in whether or not my neighbor has supplies - because that could possibly effect me in the future. Haiti? Like to help but resources are finite.
