Enter Doomsday Preppers.
Unfortunately, my lack of cable has kept me from being able to see this show, but I am delighted that it even exists! These people don't only horde supplies, but according to the show website, they even train their children to shoot guns and build like Macguyver. It has to be incredible to see, and I encourage you all to watch it on my behalf.
However, this makes me start to question my own readiness for the future. I think I have a gallon of spring water, that was really meant for my daughter's fish bowl, but of course can be used in a pinch. I have some canned food in my pantry, but nothing really that awesome. And, that's about it. I have a wooden sword for protection, and a whole lot of imagination. I'm not even sure I have rope!
So the next question is, do I need to prepare? Where would I keep all the stuff if I did? I live in an apartment, which probably isn't that safe anyway.
I suddenly feel like I have a bit to think about. But in the meantime, I'm definitely going to watch the pros, and most likely laugh at them.
Braaaaaiiiiinnn Food: Do you prepare for the future in any way?
The LDS church actually encourages its members to have a "72-hour" kit because even in cases of natural disasters, it usually takes up to 72 hours for Red Cross (etc) to respond. I think you can actually buy premade kits from Costco etc.
