Whoa…you are toooo kind! She can’t just keep saving the dryer & sock lint & weave ’em together for a new dress? I’d bet Anne would jump at the chance to share recipies!
Is this really a surprise to anyone? I mean, most people can hardly wipe their own butts anymore yet alone prepare for a disaster that “will never hit them”. First you need to teach these people how to walk, talk, drive, use turn signals before you can expect anything else from them. Most people are now just too lazy to get off their fat butts. They will just blame somebody else for their problems. That is how it works now isn’t it?
The survey did not mention if it covered a diverse geographic area. I would think the numbers would differ depending on where you live. But, I was actually surprised at how many people are more prepared than I am, and I am not one of the lazy people who can’t walk, talk, or chew gum.
hey, you guys are all applying logic, which is not pertinent here. you don’t have to worry about prepardness when you have Big Brother to come in and bail you out. that’s why they have Citizens Insurance in Florida, with artifically low rates. Big Brother is available when it “goes down”. you get to use Other Peoples Money. that’s the mentality.
I’m not prepared. That’s the truth. A fire, a flood, earthquake, hurricane, etc. will destroy me. I have all my important financial information scattered throughout my house and I don’t have a fully functional first aid kit either. I’m pretty much screwed if anything happened today. I only have two flashlights and I don’t know where my extra batteries are; heck I don’t even know if I have any. This post isn’t a joke, I’m being serious. I guess I have some work to do, eh? Well I promise you this much…I won’t blame my agent! :-P
Regardless of how prepared you are, you are never prepared enough! I have all my important records together, batteries, water and flashlight, but how much will that help you if you are in a flash flood, earthquake or tornado! You can only do the best you can.
That’s why I keep a case of Jack Daniels and a loaded shotgun in the garage. You never know when catastrophe will strike. I also have a generator to keep the TV and Satelitte dish going as well. I even have two hotplates that Mrs. Compman can use to cook dinner and heat water to wash the dishes.
How come you keep the JD & shotgun in the garage? Shouldn’t they be closer to you in case of emergency? Or does Mrs. Compman have to go get them?…….alrighty, then!

Remember all the New Orleanian’s stuck in Stupordome.
