    It's interesting that milk and eggs (perishables) would be on the list since most people would lose power and therefore, refrigeration, to keep food from spoiling. I'd load up on bottled water, MREs, and butane canisters for my portable stove. (I already have a boxes and boxes of candles.)

    Nice idea. Let me get my gun, shoot you and take your stuff. After all, why would I want to pay out for all then when you have it.
    There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

    "The GW your referring to was replaced 8 years ago! Everything is happy now, right?" (sorry, forgot to reply with quote)


    It just SEEMS like 8 years.

    It's not a hurricane. It is only a tropical depression. Give it some prozac and tell it to cheer up.

    I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
    And I howled at my ma in the driving rain,
    But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!

    I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag,
    I was schooled with a strap right across my back,
    But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!

    I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead.
    I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled.
    I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread.
    I was crowned with a spike right thru my head.
    But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!

    In Hartford, Hereford and Hampshire, hurricanes hardly happen.

    My familly has been working in the grocery business for over 30 years. Believe it or not it's the perishable stuff like milk, eggs, cheese, hot dogs, bread, and fruits and veggies are the first to go.

    I do not understand it either.

    If you have a few good coolers and some ice stuff lasts a lot longer. You can freeze eggs, milk and lots of stuff and it takes a long time to go bad.

    May not happen "everywhere," but here in L.A. when we have a big earthquake that knocks out power and everything else, usually the first thing all the supermarkets, 7-11s and everyplace else does is give away all their bagged ice before it all melts -- you can pick up a dozen bags of it for free, usually. We did that. Twice.
