    Default Just to make you think...

    Just imagine if there was a terrorist attack (or some other nationwide catastrophe) tomorrow, and (for whatever reason) you could no longer waltz into your favorite store and purchase/order whatever you wanted (like was possible just yesterday) The question is....what do you wish you would have purchased yesterday (or last week when you had the chance)

    Guns, ammo, gasoline and 2 cycle motor oil for the boat. Thanks KX, I didn't think about stocking much 2 cycle oil before, but If I'm going to have to fish and hunt for food, the boat is going to have to run.

    I think I'm good, but more food and building supplies would probably top my list.

    I have no intentions of trying to survive with you, Pal. First, beans and rice are going to get very old, very quick. At least get some canned Twinkies or canned Danish (the pastry not the people). Second, even with a muffler, folks know you're there, if you know what I mean.

    Been doing ok on them at least once every couple days for awhile . Ok, I will add canned Danish (the pastry not the people). Canned Twinkies give me gas would certainly not want that .
    "Second, even with a muffler, folks know you're there, if you know what I mean.[/QUOTE]" , I suspect that would be a good thing
