It's ironic (sadly) that there are news articles circulating these days about how "preppers" (who were once considered fools) are actually NOT fools. I'm not talking about the paranoid zombie apocalypse types ... just the ones concerned about realistic natural disasters, pandemics and war. And here we are in a global viral pandemic. 

I started "prepping" about 15 years ago, give or take. Food, water, "equipment" (you can define your own take on that). Granted, I've had plenty of training and professional experience prior to this point, but the fact is that everyone should have seen SOMETHING coming. For the last month, I've supplied people that were unprepared with basic essentials such as PPE, food, water and shelter. Yes, shelter. It's sad to say that so many friends have said in the past, "Hey, if something goes bad I'm coming to your house." The bottom line is that they will not -- maybe cannot -- and if they do, it's not my problem. Too bad, so sad. You should have had the survival mindset to prepare. 

Now, we have morons raiding store shelves of toilet paper and basic cleaning supplies. Up next is meat and non-essential groceries and supplies. Check out eBay, Amazon, Etsy and other online marketplaces. You'll be surprised at what is no longer available ... or has been price-gouged to ridiculous amounts of money if it's available.

The positive point is that natural selection is in progress. The downside is that we (you) should have been prepared before this viral pandemic occurred. 

What have YOU done to prepare and are you managing it well based upon your training and preparedness efforts?

With you buddy, thanks for the heads up, I have now secured a drinking water source by topping up the bird bath. In food terms I pre shaved the dog ready for bbq and have set traps ready for local cats, I should dine well. The mrs looked panic stricken when I told her I was going to eat the neighbours pussy, wtf is wrong with her ?

Considering trapping the bats in the garden but the little fckrs are too quick for my air rifle, heard bats make good eating on the news. Don't worry about me I'll be fine, keep your strength up for the mauling you'll get from me later.

Rob

ps be careful not to spread panic

Rob , stay away from eating the bats. They say that's where the covid 19 originated from.

I stored nothing but the food for the cat. When we are out of cat food, we'll eat our well feed cat... because we shared with her. @RobMc Neither my wife agrees about the end of the story.

I don't know if it's what I wrote but It's definitely not what I meant ?

Next time, I will write my post in French. So, there will be no misinterpretation of yours.

I reckon that you'll have to use google translation to be sure to well understand it.

Anyway, I think that you'll find a mischievous way to read it. Am I not right @ShinyAbsol?

Reading more carefully what you wrote, maybe there is a cue here: "The mrs looked panic stricken when I told her I was going to eat the neighbours pussy, wtf is wrong with her ?"

Maybe you want to eat the neighbours pussy (or others) because there are now too much spider webs in your wife's?  (A cue about what is wrong with her... just to help) ?

Friendly

I have always kept my water supply, pantry, fridge and freezer stocked up just in case of a world disaster. I have enough toilet paper and cleaners to last a year. Got it all before all this pandemic bullshit.

Amazon prices are coming back down to normal now on a lot food items. At least in the Canadian site.

Also been making sure my grand kids are ok even though I can't see them right now. I talk to them on the phone every day.

Seems more and more people are of the opinion that while this is a serious health issue requiring significant resources, swift attention, leadership and people taking responsibility for their own actions (for themselves and interactions with others) that the overall response went way too far. Had some customers today say that very thing. And they werent nut jobs or uncaring assholes, just regular people. Oh and that all politicians are bad, regardless of party.

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop? Now is the time to figure it out.
