File for unemployment and immediately start looking for another job?What Now?
With as many years as I spent at Tahoe, not worried with the few wild areas left around here.I hear the whites are conducive to hanging round in this time of year...
There's no time like go time. lol
... I would just as soon go home and barricade myself in my place.
I would strap a shotgun to my back, walk down to mayflower and set sail until the madness is over, putting in at Cabby Shack for a pizza or some angry mussels once in a while, maybe grab a lobster or two.
My secretary is hot.

Knowledge is more important than any gear you can carry.
Yeah, you have to beat me there, I'm 3 blocks away...
Have plenty of 12ga ammo handy.
Are you with the Red Cross?The sugar is important if you run into a diabetic and Tylenol for anyone who may be having a heart attack or a headache.
Thanks Dave. The sugar is important if you run into a diabetic and Tylenol for anyone who may be having a heart attack or a headache. Hell, sometimes I have to resupply myself, take note, love my wife but cant they all nag you to death?
You and I might well live next to each other, some night I'll stick my head out the window and see if you can see me. I can walk there in about 5 minutes. I'm just up the hill on the beach side of town.
Tell you what, I'll split it with you, I think as we do not have any pilgrims, it may be more than a 1 man job to sail that thing.
Now I'm bringing the rifle and the shotgun....
First let me say I am not some nut who thinks the world is going to end. I am just prepaired for things that are real world threats.
I currently have a Get Home Bag/Bug Out Bag. I am grabbing another bag tomorrow and will supply it with the exact same things my bag has, give my wife the old bag and keep the new one.
I have a Maxpedition Sitka bag filled with what I think I need to get home, I am going to use a Hazard 4 Rocket bag for myself. I also carry a folder in my EDC so I will always have 2 knifes on me, along with a Surefire P6.
I work in Lynn, wife Works in Wakefield, we live in Kenmore/Fenway area of Boston. We both know where to go to meet up if we are each at work. Knowledge is more important than any gear you can carry.
