Being prepared is a way of life. I started preaching to the family & friends for Y2K back in 1999. That was when we got serious about it.
Well nothing bad happened then and not much since.
My parents have evacuated from the coast twice. "And WE aren't doing it again! It's too much trouble.....bla,bla,bla"
Brotherinlaw weathered the storm at home without incident last year while all us "FOOLS" evacuated.
Our "friends" all say "Oh if it gets bad we'll come to your house, you have everything".
We are prepared. But I forgot to put a note in everybody's Christmas card.
Note! Everyone is welcome as long as YOU BRING enough food & water for yourselves and pets. Anybody showing up without food & water will be considered to be a LOOTER! And delt with accordingly.
Interesting note; Last year 5 gal plastic gas cans at Wal-Mart were $4.88.
This year they are $9.89. Yesterday I went in Tractor Supply and they were asking $17.xx for the same cans.
Don't wait around, do it now!! Regards, OE
