1. You die of thirst or waterborne illness.
(Sawyer Water filter)
2. You die from fantasy-world planning.
(Tough one to G2)
3. You freeze to death.
(Gonna be damn cold for a few months without heat, but survivable)
4. You starve to death.
(Gonna take a while to use up our stores)
5. You have an accident involving major trauma.
(SOL, that’s life)
6. You get murdered when raiders or looters come to steal your stuff.
(Well armed, but no guarantees of course. Except that I won’t die alone)
7. You get sick.
(see #5)
8. You get an infection.
( cipro lasts indefinitely kept refrigerated as does a MRSA cream. My doctor has given me scripts for both. Still, roll the dice)
9. You die because you are fat and/or out of shape.
(Decent shape for my age, but I’m not running. I plan on being surrounded by brass when I die)
10. You die when you daily medication runs out.
(18 months stashed. After that, well if things haven’t improved it’ll be time to even some scores on the way out)

I’ve been doing some weight work (sitting leg presses and upper body work) as well as treadmill work (low mph, but as much time as 85 minutes). I always thought that I could walk or outrun most anything, but as time has passed, I have had to confront the fact that I am not in the kind of shape that I was in some years ago.

I have a nice supply of ‘fish antibiotics’. They are the exact same pills you’d get at a pharmacy, including amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin, Cephalexin, Metronidazole, Doxycycline, Ampicillin, Clindamycin, Sulfamethoxazole, Azithromycin, etc.
