"Forecasters are predicting an 80 percent chance of a normal or above-normal hurricane season this year in the Central Pacific."
"Our outlook for this season is for four to seven tropical cyclones," said Mike Cantin, warning coordination meteorologist for the Central Pacific Hurricane Center in Honolulu. "That's either a tropical depression, a tropical storm or a hurricane."
Yup, you got it Sherwoody, first three things off the shelf anytime there's any sort of supply chain pilikia is:
1. Spam
2. Rice
3. Toilet paper
Seriously, though, folks - especially those of you on Oahu; it wouldn't hurt to have three to five days worth of food and water sort of stashed in the back of a closet somewhere. Stuff that you don't need power to cook.
So, next time you go to the store, if you're buying something that doesn't need to be refrigerated or will go stale, get two of them and put one on a shelf somewhere. When you use up the whatever it is, replace the one in your kitchen cabinet with the one from the shelf and put the new one you just bought on the shelf. That way you'll work up to having food on hand in case of emergencies and it will be stuff you use and not be stale.
You'll also save money since you can usually wait for the stuff to go on sale instead of having to buy it exactly when it runs out.
I think Oahu is about six meals from starvation if those container ships stop.

There will always be an abundant supply of Long Pig - hope the A1 supply holds up!!
But just think of the diseases which could be transferred. Cook it thoroughly, although I doubt that would be enough. Case of tuna fish, case of canned beans, box of those little mayo packets and a case of crackers would be a much easier answer. I guess I'm just lazy.
Big Island, though, no prob. As our ex-Mayor Kim once said "well, we can always eat the cows".

Have you ever enjoyed Long Pig? Perhaps roasted on a spit - ouch!!!!
Long Pig is closely related, although not nearly as processed as Soylent Green.
