    I live in a predominantly white upper middle class neighborhood. We will provide for each other in an orderly fashion and be a model for the city.

    That makes you good for 45 days, with what you're packing under the skin.

    Haha, well played. Although, even without firearms doesn't mean without defenses. I am prepared.

    LOL! First hint of trouble and you're hiding in your bunker. You'll be like that Japanese solider who kept attacking villagers in the Philippines for 40 years because he refused to believe that WWII was over.

    We have been prepared since a week before hurricane Ike. Our neighbor told us we should get a generator, water and other hurricane kit items. Ike came and we had no power for 11 days, in the heat of summer here in Texas. Without the generator, we would have been screwed.

    Hmmm...our power went out an hour ago. Right after my wife took dinner from the oven.
    Rarely happens and only a couple hrs when it does. Fireplace is ready to light, candles at hand.

    Another thing to add to the supplies, reading materials of all types, cause if we have to go an extended period of time without the internet, you better be ready. I have a few novels and stuff like that, but I don't own any porno mags anymore with the interwebz always available. And if the power goes out, there really are limited activities to do.
