L.a. hasn’t gotten as bad as San Fran But is getting there. Must a natural disaster take place for people to realize how inhumane the homeless at will/free sidewalk camping policies actually are?
Pray no.
Have a stock of what you like and rotate through them.
Also have handy aspirins and other over-the-counter drugs as well as leftover Oxycondone, Vicadin, etc., bandages, heating pad...
And a pint of vodka in a flat plastic bottle.
A tent, if aftershocks might bring the house down.
And don’t store your tent in the house.
I would need a large stock of TP if an earthquake hit. AND clean underwear.
My dad and the other guys in my family go commando.
Actually TP is the last thing that should be on your list. It is soft and flimsy because it is intended to be flushed.
In a situation with no running water, you are going to throw it away instead of flushing it. Take it from an old woodsman and hunter, paper towels are a much better bet. They work and their superior strength means that you will avoid the dreaded finger poke through.
If there is no running water, the finger poke through is very unsanitary.
Oh, absolutely. Some to wash out wounds but mostly to enjoy yourself while the world burns down.
Re: Do I have to shoot my neighbors? I kinda like most of them...
Yikes. I hope not!
I live in a downtown urban area and was thinking about MY survival plan.
