I like to chat with Jim and Cleve and exchange ideas. If a blog gets too much following my voice is drowned out or I get banned (no, really).<br /><br />I don't even manage to follow Jim and Cleve as often as I would, so I'll leave it at that.Avehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06508223217305671728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-72527584671875638212017-05-15T06:34:09.760-07:002017-05-15T06:34:09.760-07:00Look under "vox day blog" if I'm not...Look under "vox day blog" if I'm not mistaken.James M Dakinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382139289994087931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-89708203586376889352017-05-14T21:12:18.876-07:002017-05-14T21:12:18.876-07:00Dingo I don't know the Vox blog.

It was based on standard cardboard box made to hold paper , there are lots of them in any office. They have a standard size and have enough volume to have one week of cans in them. A sturdy plastic liner bag is included (to be used either as trash bag or improvised toilet), actually it is deployed first and the content put inside. Toilet paper is also added inside the box (if you eat food, at one moment it will come out, very important principle)<br /><br />There is a paper listing the content of the bag, and a copy of that in a binder, so I know what I have. I made two batches of 8 weeks each, so I could purchase the content in bulk. Actually there is just enough space for tin cans, some jars of sauce or jam, and some dry bread, but the main carbs (oil, rice, pasta, couscous etc.) have to be stocked elsewhere.<br /><br />I made thr last batch in 2007. One of these days I am going to take the batch of 2005 and try it out. I don't believe in rotation.<br /><br />I still stockpile foodstuff but only on sale or in bulk. I tend to diversify a lot, since there is such a thing as taste fatigue. I also have way too much cans in my pantry. It is due to lazyness, but also experience from the Week Boxes, at one point you get a sense of quantity based on volume.Avehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06508223217305671728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-40789370923592447232017-05-14T15:18:24.622-07:002017-05-14T15:18:24.622-07:00You are number 1, Almost don't read anyone els...You are number 1, Almost don't read anyone elsesolarmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06003692871460203126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-71896703382184201702017-05-14T13:48:47.544-07:002017-05-14T13:48:47.544-07:00Don't you tease me unless I'm really #1!Don't you tease me unless I'm really #1!James M Dakinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382139289994087931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-27299401029571183442017-05-14T12:11:38.663-07:002017-05-14T12:11:38.663-07:00@ Ave - hey mate.

I've taken that to heart & have styrofoam boxes with 1 week food & consumables for 2 people & 1 dog (mine). Water for drinking for 1 week (2ppl & dog) fits in a milk crate. There's 2 knives for self defence as well. That prep covers everything for 2 ppl, no thinking required, for 1 week. <br /><br />When I look at that prep I know I have 1 week that I don't have to stress. Might even tidy that out & make a submission for a minion post<br /><br />Apologies for that rambling post it's made in my phone whilst in bed wishing I didn't have to get up Dingonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-56536140012587471042017-05-14T11:40:51.438-07:002017-05-14T11:40:51.438-07:00The US version of Bkackout is far better because g...The US version of Bkackout is far better because guns 😎<br /><br />I really enjoyed the us version. The rich couple in New York really annoyed me. Heck, they'd annoy me even if the power was on. <br /><br />The other character whose life expectancy around me shtf is the boyfriend of the survivalists fathers daughter. Mate, you're a long haired hippy who I've only just met. There's only one man allowed to have luxurious hair in North America and that's Lord Bison.

It isn't a solution but highly satisfying as reality screws you.

Here you have it, no computers, including your own right here. This event happens lightning fast.<br /><br />Then people have to adapt, and there is some semblance of order in the following days. For instance, Metro lines and railways would let their passengers ride for free since they can't sell tickets anyway (nor would they be able to process fines). ( last Friday In Germany the attack hit the timetable displays but the trains still rolled). Supermarkets limit the amount of the total price of products that can be purchased, they accept checks and cash and policemen keep an eye on people. Everybody believes this is a matter of days, surely there are some backups.<br /><br />Now this can last some time. Neighbours, family come for short-term help on small stuff (toilet paper, toothpaste, whatever) and you can't shoo them away yet. Most people have 2 to 3 days of *something* to eat.<br /><br />This latent period is extremely stressful, and it seems it takes forever to go apeshit, something that everybody expects and nobody wants.<br /><br />When it finally goes south after a couple of days, what will it look like ? It depends on where you live, what you do, who you are. It could be family backstabbing you. Children making mistakes (this BBC blackout documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSIyVeUT78w makes you want to put them to sleep as soon as the lights go off).<br /><br />It could be completely random. Or nothing happens but your stress destroys you. You can only prep and anticipate so far. This last sentence is bad for sales, and for blog reclick value because it offers no solution, no matter how far-fecthed.<br /><br />Sometimes it's better to say there's no solution rather than making someone believe there is going to be one, or that "we'll find a way".Avehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06508223217305671728noreply@blogger.com
