I am NOT a Doomsday Prepper
More of a "FEMA should be here (checks watch) any minute" prepper. Still, having a wishlist on amazon.com entitled "Storm Preparedness" which is in part based on a nutbar survivalist's Listmania could cast doubt on my So Not A Nutbar cred.
Bought today:
Hand crank flashlight/radio/phone charger
Water bulb (one fills it up on severe weather warning before the utilities go out)
I next have my eye on:
Generator
Cat emergency kit (yeah, yeah, priorities; WTFevah, they're pissed it wasn't in the first round of purchase)
Solar oven (I will admit to a "wow neato" factor here)
Where da food at, you ask? Why, a 2x72 hour supply is already available to me in the emergency kit (no link because the product apparently no longer exists on amazon) purchased during preparedness month. :D Plus mylar blankets, two dust masks and a first aid kit. I do have my eye on a one-person fanny pack version for the car, though. The food bars are 100% last resort by which we mean maybe eat worms first, of course. Before consumption, the unbroken food blocks feel as though they could reasonably be used as defensive weaponry.
