  1. Agreed, yet strangely enough some AN members get rude and defensive anytime preparation (prepping) for an emergency is mentioned. Don't even suggest putting those items in a 'go-bag', or they really get their panties in a wad.
  2. Far from gourmet dining, but even without a gas burner one can survive on cold beans eaten straight from the can, tuna, spam, sardines, crackers, nuts, raisins, dried fruits, trail mix, MRE's, freeze dried foods, granola bars, power bars, etc., etc.. Lack of drinking water could be a problem, so some type of filter might come in handy. The trick is to have a cache of similar items BEFORE the earthquake strikes.
  3. Technically, I believe it is still an icebox. Much like an aquarium is still an aquarium if you remove the water and fish.
  4. Yes, that's a hassle. But I can easily live out of an ice-chest if needed.
  5. I've also become attached to my refrigerator. I lived out of an ice-chest for several years in a small motorhome with no water or electric.
  6. I have enough food and cash to last much more than two weeks. If my A/C went out I wouldn't be happy, but I would survive.
  7. If I had to rely on digital technology for survival I would be ashamed of myself.
  8. Is that a tablet in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
  9. 'Boring' is in the eye of the beholder. I don't find life boring at all. I enjoy watching the wheels go round and round.
  10. I've never gotten around to buying a smart phone, and it's not a high priority on my list. I still travel anywhere in the world, do pretty much anything I want to do, all the old school way. I enjoy living that way, and it's a small sense of pride that I don't rely on anything but my own wits and common sense.
