And fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes never happen.
Neither do wars, industrial accidents, or terror attacks.
Just damn silly and foolish to even consider and maybe plan or prepare for things we all know are never going to happen and were probably only make-believe when we hear stories of how those type things may have happened to others.
Now you all be wise and go back to eating potato chips and watching Dancing With The Stars like the Man says.
As far as 2012 . . . Just looked at the Calendar on my wall and it ends . . . . December 31st! THIS Year! AHHHHH!!! Doom comes early to my house!!!!!
We will all survive 2012 just like we survived Y2K. R-E-{LAX] Like California.
Of course we will. All of us. Then we will all survive 2013 and 2014 and 2020 and 2050, and nothing bad will EVER happen to anyone. There will be no interruption of Utopia on your watch.
For instance, I'm sure that you don't bother with car insurance. Nothing will happen. Assuming you own property, you have no property insurance of any kind. Nothing will happen. You have no savings of any kind. Nothing will happen. There is no spare tire in your car trunk. Nothing will happen. You don't have a flashlight in your home. Nothing will happen. You don't have a smoke detector in your house. Nothing will happen. You don't take a coat with you in your car if it's 15 degrees outside. Nothing will happen. Isn't omnipotence great?
Nothing will EVER happen to anyone. We live in a perfect world. Do you hear the bluebird chirping merrily outside your window as it stands on your white picket fence in Shangri-La?
Yes lets stock up food for the end of the world; even though we're going to die..........
it doesnt have to be TSHTF situation, it might be a icestorm that hits your area and you cannot get out of the home, in the south it might be a hurricane and the store are charging an arm and a leg for a can of beans.
I didn't realize how out of style standing on your own two feet was until I started reading this forum. Oh well. Free country (for now).
I don't think the idea is to stock up food for the end of world. I think it's more along the lines of stocking up in case you are hungry and no food is available elsewhere for whatever reason.
I think it would be great to have people stock up on non perishable food - even rooms full of food. Then, if nothing happens and the family knows they cannot eat all that food before the expiration date, they will hopefully donate it to charity. Won't the charities be thrilled!
Hah do you guys have rooms in your house full of stocked up food? That's the DUMBEST idea i've ever heard.
then dont post here. being prepared isnt dumb. i live in the mountains and it is just a normal way of life and can save your life when a major storm hits. we dont live new orleans style that aint how we roll

Kind of like having enough lifeboats on the Titanic was a dumb idea?
It's a matter of perspective, my friend. I'm sure the folks flapping around in the North Atlantic would have taken a different perspective on how dumb an idea a lifeboat is.
