That's good. Zombies are a threat that is too often overlooked. No idea why.

The house we liked a lot is still for sale, but it's so far from skiing Sorry to be off topic but does any one know where to find the chainsaw artist Ray Murphy? I saw him on North Woods Law and just have to have one of those squirrels. I had a wild squirrel that used to sit on my lap and would come in my house with my cat and dog. We had a unique friendship and I still miss her. I think one of his squirrels would be a nice tribute to what was a special visitor. I will look him up on our next trip if I can find him.

Do you remember hiding under your desk as a routine drill to prepare for a nuclear attack? Yeah that will save you. What were they thinking? That whole drill thing scared the pants off of me. I wonder if the children of the preppers practicing a "bug out" experience that same fear?

The problem is that you are hoarding the wrong kind of beer:

Prepping has gotten a bad name. I consider it just being prepared, like the boy scout motto. We have to prepare for the unpleasant task of being alive if we have kids to raise or spouses to take care of. My own life is not that important. I'm not just saying that. The fact is that we could be in some very unpleasant times soon.
