It's a shame to have all that ice and no liquor. I hate having ice left over when the liquor's gone. *Maybe you can get a Russian ice breaker to bring some.
I believe that is what 911 is for.* Duh...Budds Outlet wrote:

Where have you people been? The number one recommended disaster preparedness item for the home is a liberal supply of your preferred beverage. A three day supply of water, and at least a seven day supply of bourbon is my own minimum, as I like a little water on the side.*Carey wrote:

I took inventory today, 100 gallons of fresh water, 2 Half gallons Crown, 1 fifth Crown, 1/2 gallon Captain Morgan, 13 fifths Drambuie, 1/2 gallon Vodka, 2 fifths flavored vodka, 1 fifth Kahlua, 2 fifths Patron, Half case pop, 1 case beer. Along with miscelaneous canned foods, packaged foods, chips, canned meats, frozen meats, vegetables, and a 1/2 gallon milk.
I'm set for any snow storm that hits Tucson. I do drain and refill the fresh water every other week to keep it fresh. For those that wonder, this is in the motorhome. The trawler is safe, warm and dry inside it's boathouse in Pt Orchard.

*Same boathouse survived the last ice storm in 1995(?) without even getting the wood wet. Most houses that didn't crumble from rot had walkways awash from the weight pushing them down. The guy that built my house (me) put enough flotation in to allow for aging and for added loads.Phil Fill wrote:
