Just another seller of food packaged for long term storage folding up
now that the FUD is gone. Got caught with all that stock they gotta
get rid of.

Bidding remains at 0 for all the items. Yup, there's a real survival
food shortage, but it's not the food that's in short supply. It's
buyers. The 3 months kit goes for $70 and shipping is $70. Perhaps
if they lowered it a little and paid shipping costs, it would be a
good deal.

Anyway, some in the ng were telling us how they had eaten all their
Y2k supplies and how yummy it was for the tummy. I just thought I'd
show them where they can get some more nitrogen packed groceries.

Oh yeah, that's right, all the doomers were predicting that Y2k foods
would be selling on e-bay for 20 cents on the dollar by the middle of
2000. All this talk about how they predicted bad things is just polly
revisionism. Isn't it?

'twould be interesting to have the stats on generator bid/offer/sales

when you run a Scare'em or Ponzi or MLM scheme, the first rule is to get

Thanks for the info - winter's coming, and it's fire season now. My
canned goods are mostly gone, and I'm looking for a more diverse stock,
plus rotation.

Bobby, get a life. I said it then, and I'll say it now: preparedness is

Yes, thanks Bob, I am interested if they have premium Albacore tuna for 60-70 cents a can, Mary Kitchen hash for 80-90 cents, vienna sausages, Campbells Chunky soups, Barilla pasta and sauce, spam, etc. I'd pay 50 percent of the regular store prices. Before someone goes off on the spam - Hawaiian 7-11's sell a delicious "spam sushi". It's part of a well balanced breakfast, Kona coffee, malasadas, and spam sushi, the four essential food groups, sugar, fried dough, salt, lard. These items are on sale at Giant Food or Safeway about every other month. Half off is a *good* sale price. 75 cents on the dollar is an average sale. I've allowed my inventories of these items to drop below normal levels, 1-3 weeks on the shelf. I'd like to build them back up to over a month. That'd be 8 cans of tuna, 24 cans of Chunky soups, 10 lbs of pasta, 20 jars of pasta sauce (sometimes I pour pasta sauce over rice or use it as feeder stock for sloppy joes.) I'm not interested in "freeze dried" food, MRE's, or nitrogen packed soybeans. cory hamasaki

Well, unless you are just going to talk about it, you need to make a
bid. Bidding remains at zero. Here is a hint. If you want to buy
it, you have to make a bid.

That is unless it's all talk.

Like I said then and like I'll say now, without an adequate threat
analysis you don't know what to prepare for. Take Y2k for example.
Big waste of time and money for a lot of people. I think it strained
a few relationships too.

Do a good threat analysis and prepare for likely events. Leave the
more esoteric TEOTWAWKI events to the nut cases with a
political/religious ax to grind.

See the archives for examples.

Happy bidding. I'll keep looking for your bid to show up.

That's the stupidest thing I've ever seen from you. Good preparedness is
flexible for multiple kinds of disaasters, not single threat longshots.

Likely major events in my area, gauged by over ten years actual
experience: earthquake, fire, floods. Minor events: friends homeless,
and personal unemployment.

> Happy bidding. I'll keep looking for your bid to show up.

A) Do you really think I'd post with my real name?? You wouldn't know my
bid if you saw it.

And you're Y2k stand makes survivalists look like a bunch of nuts
because you pushed this "single threat long shot" as far as the dead
horse would carry it.

Don't forget all that time that you pushed Y2k as being in that list.
You screwed up and made survivalists look like a bunch of idiots.

Since there were "NO BIDS" on the stuff, I can safely assume that you
didn't bid. Which part of "0" don't you understand?

So, how many predicted that survival food would be selling for 20
cents on the dollar and no one would want it?

The grammar of your first sentence is ambiguous. There are four plurals

Actually, the example you gave might well be an example of bad
preparedness.

Good preparedness relies on these factors:
1) a reasonable estimation of potential disasters, both personal and
natural
2) a balanced selection of items to comprise ones supplies
3) a method/plan to rotate and refresh those supplies.
4) a willingness to admit that you've gone down the wrong road and revise
your plans.

Of course, "reasonable" is subjective, and based on an individual's life
experiences.

For example, once when I was involved with corporate earthquake
preparedness, we picked up two stretchers, but no water reserves.
Bzzzzt, an unbalanced supply, because we were thinking more along the
lines of first aid than "survival" in a building without water.

A well rounded disaster plan allows for food, water, sanitation, shelter,
cooking/heat, and first aid, as well as lesser comfort issues. For me, I
look primarily at an earthquake scenario, with its attendant disruptions
to power, water, sanitation, and shelter stability. If I lived on a flood
plain, I would stock sandbags, too. I also keep an eye to being able to
give "care packages" to friends whose month exceeds their money, so I
stock up on staples, and buy in bulk, or in long term storage containers
that I can just hand someone.

You see, DD, preparedness was never a Y2K only thing for me. Y2K just
gave me the push to rebuild my stocks, and round out my preparedness in
general. I could afford it, and it makes my day-to-day stress in the
volatile job market *much* less.

Now all I need is a place in the boonies for when I want to escape the rat
race.

What silliness! What a laughable theory! What foolishments! That would

Not even half-right, Mr Hamasaki... there are inexpensive Stiltons
available which can introduce the impecunious neophyte to the
possibilities which exist... and even the better ones (say, the Neal's
Yard Colston Bassett) can be found by convenent mail-order for a mere
twenty-odd dollars a pound.

There is, however, an active volcano pit in the vicinity of N 19.3
lat., W155.0 long. that may be used for small, baked egg-salad batches.

Half-baked may be tried at your own risk. The temperature of molten
rock usually results in *very* well done.... nearly instantly. Have
the troops wear breathing apparatus. Those sulfur fumes are nearly as
deadly as Stilton fumes! (We gotta train some gleebs for this...
they're not much good for anything else, and who cares if they come
back 'baked'?)

This is *too* easy... teach *them* to mess with an Earther!... slowly,
slowly... set it up cleanly, neatly... I mean...

... ai, ai! Oi, oi! All is lost, I have no idea which way to turn! Yes,
no, yes, no... shall I stay or shall I go?

The only way out... the only road to take to leave this dilemma behind...
the only way to get the fork out of this indecision...

... and that's to sing!

My first trip to the Winnipeg country,
My first trip to the Chippewa shore,
There I met one Rosie O'Grady,
Betterwise known as The Winnipeg Whore!

(everybody join!)

'Come right in, now don't I know ya?
'Let me set upon your knee!
'How'd ya like some fancy lovin'?
'Dollar-an-a-half is the usual fee!'

(Baritones down a third!)

She took me over to her bedside,
That's the place where she did sleep,
There were lice and fleas and bedbugs,
Wasn't clean... but it sure was cheap!

(louder, ladies!)

She was pushin' and I was shovin',
We both knew what 'twas all about,
'Till I missed my watch and wallet -
Christ A'mighty, I did shout!

(wind it up now!)

Then she called her pimps and bullies,
Must'a been a dozen or more!
You'da laughed for to cream your britches,
T'see my butt flyin' out that door!

Well now... that seems to take care of just about *everything*, as it
usually does.

M Bernier, many things 'can be viewed' as other things; press-releases and
book-reports (what *does* one call a book report of a book that hasn't
been published... a 'manuscript report'?) can be viewed... well, as a
variety of things. Certain manifestations of the complusive twitchings of
Tourette's syndrome can be viewed to satisfy you in this matter, as well.

It is a competitive sport in Asia. As dancing is in the west, e.g. Ballroom
dancing, ice dancing etc. Sport may be the wrong word, bt it will have to do.
I like the clssification of all of these things as 4 dimenstional expression.
The 4th is, of course, time.

Far be it from me to attempt to provide an impartial review of mine own
capabilities, Mr Brennan.

Nothing new or unusual there; merely dispensing my standard quality with
my regular largesse.

I'm not sure I needed to know that... but presumably you'd have to *eat*

No need for you to presume your way about matters of dubious
necessity-of-knowledge, I'd say... and my largesse is not only dependent
upon diet. Hipporcates had a few things to say on such matters...
consider:

'In Larissa a bald man suddenly experienced pain in the right thigh. No
remedy did any good.'

Of *course* you do... no wonder your walls are now done in a lovely shade
of BrainWave Analyst Innards... errrr... I mean, ai, ai! Oi, oi! All is
lost!
