The hard core prepper crowd (I raise my hand :-) ) have been discussing this very topic for years and years.

The good news is we are in the Internet age, and there is an infinite amount out there to enjoy and learn.

1918—now _that_ would have been boring.

You know, I was watching it build up — and I am safe and

stockpiled — but I was still making excuses for delaying

actions I knew I needed to be taking. I hadn’t been paying

any attention, I can’t imagine how screwed I would be.

As it is, I am kicking myself for saving the $25 and taking USPS instead of next day delivery for stock sale...

Hours of Mah-jong in my future.

(I can never remember rules for Solitaire and computer always cheats at chess)

Lookner retweet

BREAKING: UK reports 342 new cases of coronavirus and 10 new deaths, raising total to 1,140 cases and 21 dead


Imho Boris has been awful on handling the virus—he has gone straight into surrender mode.

There will be quarantines in places in London. It is going to happen, whether Boris wants it to or not.

But—he will have waited too long.

The British health system is going to crash and burn beyond anyone’s wildest dystopian imagination—and it will be no later than a May 1 event.

That is my gloom and doom opinion—but that is what the math says...

What these Flubros SHOULD be doing, instead of bitching at us, is figuring out how they’re going to collect and purify water (and yes, it’s all over the Internet...as long as they have power and a connection). For if they cannot do that, they will be forced out of their homes as our supply of clean water starts to dry up (due to reliance on Chinese chemicals and equipment).

For us preppers, we already have it mapped out and have materials in place to do the job...so we have time to discuss other items here.
