So after all the discussion.
Anybody at least considering putting together a drag bag? Or thinking out and discussing detailed plans with the spouse on what they're options may be and how to excecute them in a "family safe" manner??? If your at work and wifey poo is home, or gets there before you, it would be good for her to not just be standing there watching the tv thinking. "Holy crap!"
Be it a:
Flood
Earth quake
Tornado
Plane crash
Terrorist attack
Nuclear accident
Godzilla
What ever. Its good to have a plan in place! What if your cell phones not working? (LIKELY to be the case!)
Actually yes. My wife and I have looked at several situations, and have developed and continue to develop plans to deal with several plights. Including plans to stay, or leave, how to get reunited, and other things. The way we got started was taking the information that the government produces and then doing the following:
If the government says three days, figure at least three weeks.
Remember that all the duct tape and plastic in the world does you now good if you suffocate yourself. Forget about putting plastic on the doors and windows and get respirators.
Keep a little cash on hand, but don't go overboard. In a real emergency cash will probably not get you as much as gold/silver coins, jewelry or other precious commodities. Besides, there won't be anything left to buy after the initial panic and looting.
Finally, If you got it, chances are good someone without your foresight is going to want it. So if you plan to keep it you better be able to defend it.
BTW Badger, is it just me or does the ketchup bottle look like it's licking the hotdog??
