Three packs of Slim Jims. At least a dozen greenish-yellow bananas. And a six pack of Coors Light. Tom 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisL Posted January 11, 2018 Share #11 Posted January 11, 2018 I can't imagine being stuck in the house due to weather... I'd probably suggest Xanax or sleeping pills... or a lot of booze. Oh hey P8 I was taking a pee break at a local sports complex on my ride last Sunday and a local fast pitch team was having a skills day for ages 8 to 18. Can you imagine playing softball out doors right now?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That area in Mendicito was hit hard by the fires and really only returned a few weeks ago. Like I said earlier, mother nature was a cruel bitch in that area just burned and then weeks later gets nailed by a big storm. Worst possible scenario.

No one is ever stuck in their house, unless there are snow drifts in front of all the doors and windows, and that can happen in some areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the difference is the fires affect pockets, not wide scale areas. Earthquakes kinda do the same in that the devastation is generally in certain areas near the epicenter. Yeah it could hit anywhere but the odds are better and it's likely to be a once in a lifetime event to suffer catastrophic damage in a quake. I guess I'd rather have that than have to deal with snow EVERY winter. But that's just my take, I can see your POV too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airehead Posted January 11, 2018 Share #19 Posted January 11, 2018 We are also supposed to get a big storm-- 20 to 24 inches of snow but it will likely be 8. I am stopping at Costco for fruit and veggies and dog biscuits. Can't have unhappy Airedales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to my earlier point it's not wide scale. We have miles and miles of foothills out here and they don't all burn/have mud slides. SoCal is a big place and this issue was many miles from the last burn/slide area. Not minimizing the issue, just that only a few thousand were affected rather than millions if a huge snow storm blankets a wide area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, remember I fought wild fires in California during the '60s. What you missed was I indicated your big problem was (people) or much higher population that I want to deal with on a daily basis.

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted January 12, 2018 Share #28 Posted January 12, 2018 I was proud of @jsharr for being the first to suggest bourbon but disappointed at the same time because he only mentioned it once. Y'all suck for ideas when bourbon is only one out of one hundred suggestions. The brother lives within 50 miles of Bourbonville KY, a historical landmark if there ever was one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickinMD ★ Posted January 12, 2018 Share #30 Posted January 12, 2018 If there's something you eat a lot of, stock up. When we're expecting a foot or more I hoard a lot of food. Bread and wax cartons of milk or half-and-half: they'll last a month unopened if refrigerated. Plenty of coffee, tea, and Swiss Miss. I LOVE Breakfast Bowls, 7 oz frozen scrambled eggs, potatos, cheese and sausage or ham or bacon or a combination. If were getting a bad storm I get at least 5 days worth and make sure I also have a dozen eggs and a couple packs of brown and serve sausage. Cans of soup. Meat and Potatoes and canned or frozen veggies. Lots of beverages. Frozen dinners from Marie Callender, Stouffer's, etc. Chips, Little Debbie Brownies, some other sweets.
