Would hit it.

even though I may not believe in certain doomsday scenarios *coughrapturecough*

Why would anyone doomsday prep for the rapture? If you believe in it Jesus has you covered - you're supposed to rise up to meet him in the air.

If you don't believe in it then that is not a plausible doomsday scenario for you.

Yeah, that's bullshiat. It's amazing what they will do for "reality" TV... 8 or 9 years ago VH1 did a show called 'Bands on the Run', took 5 or so bands from across the country and sponsored them for 3 months or so, whoever sold the most tickets/merch would win a recording contract. I happened to know one of the bands, I had watched them for years, and hung out and partied with them a few times. I got in on the second episode and was able to tell my wife exactly which order these bands would get booted in, that it was going to come down to the band I knew and another band at the end, and that the other band would "win", even if VH1 had to tweak things to make it work. I was 100% correct. They also made the band I knew look like a bunch of bickering little girls, and sleazy cheap shot artists, through creative editing. It's all what's implied when they cut for an edit, and that show pissed me off forever, since to me it was blatant manipulation.


As for these "preppers", it's not a bad idea to be prepared, not for an end-of-the-world apocalyptic end, but for just any natural disaster; blizzard, hurricane, tornado, earthquake, etc... People make fun of the Mormons here for it, but they're ready if anything happens, and it's really good common sense. By being a little over-prepared, it also means that you are able to help others in an emergency, the community ends up being able to provide for all until order is restored...

And yeah, I didn't understand the whole 'cat' thin in the video either, cats could survive better than dogs, seeing the interview made MUCH more sense. Too bad Nat Geo is into this bullshiat now...

/I know, it's all kind of Socialistic....

way south: If I recall, her doomsday plan was to walk to Mexico.

/The only two problems I could see were A)Walking and B)Mexico.

No, the video said she had an available car, and if there WAS a crisis that caused a lot of dead bodies to pile up, I sure as hell would head to a less population dense country if I could.

I read that as "Doomsday Pepper" and was really disappointed to find that it was not about chilies.

if you ignore the breasts and hair, she could totally pass as a dude.

I don't know what kind of dudes you know, but even without the boobs and long hair, she still looks like achick to me...

midigod: Mikey1969: /I know, it's all kind of Socialistic....

Don't you mean exactly the opposite of that?


Opposite? Like Capitalistic? I probably should have said 'Communistic' instead of of "Socialistic', but the point is that things are being distributed among those who don't have, provided by those who do. It's the same thing the Right wingers accuse Obama of doing, and according to them, anything Obama does is 'Socialistic'...
