I also keep a loaded 10 gau. shotgun on-hand to defend my turf for when the zombies attack my house after everyone gets turned into super-mutants from the radioactive fallout at nearby nuclear power plants getting spilled into the public water supply.


Thanks Jim D. I will take your idea. The 10 gauge will most certainly be included in my emergency kit as well.

Here was my preparation Monday: Wake up with a raging hangover enhanced by a shaking room. Grab the two Venus flytraps placed foolishly above my head on a windowsill. Thank the stars that I am too hungover to be afraid or recall that I'm living on the ninth floor and hate heights.

Here's hoping everyone out there in the prefecture is safe.


Sounds like the intro to Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy...

Heh heh. I'm hoping a strict diet of rice, seaweed, and ocha helps me drop 20 lbs. fairly quickly.

Ah yes. Thank you for the tip. No second helpings and leave a few grains in the bowl.
