At least you have a plan! LMAOI like the library or book store idea, but would need food, so that's not a permanent solution. Don't tell anyone, but I'll probably just head to hang out with skimom2 as well. Shhh, it's a secret place!

I would go to the drugstores and stock up on every antibiotic, pain pill, and tranquilizer they have. You never know what you will need. I would go to a clothing store specializing in winter wear also. Then I would hole up in Boulder but on a distant street where there are very few folks. I would also stay away from Fran and her ilk. They get on me nerves.
Keep in mind that I'm the guy with the Fireball........
Sounds Ideal. The scotch seals it.
I'll bring the non-genetically modified seeds. I'm sure we'll always have plenty to debate about, such as if its better to go solar power or wind power as we rebuilt our creature comforts. I'm a pretty good tracker and hunting/fishing is covered. I also have a basic library of survival manuals. I recommend... "Your Survival" by Dr. Bob Arnot and Mark Cohen, "98.6 Degrees" by Cody Lundin, "Peterson’s Field Guide to Edible Wild Plants" and "The Outward Bound Wilderness First-Aid Handbook."I have a decent background in farming and tending to fruit trees. We'll need someone to take on electrical engineering basics, meat preservation, canning, and first aid (Looks like plenty of reading in the future). The basic supplies will be pretty easy... just look for the empty survival compounds.
(And lets get Dana Jean to join us... if she can cook that is
. Don't want her going all killer clown in order to survive, now do we.)Anyway, there's always history to debate. I think we both have a passion for that.
Find a trailer and move it on up! Plenty of land, and the more people you can trust around you, the better

Looks like we're getting the old band back together.
Yeth. I need to thee your library path.....Looks like we're getting the old band back together.
When you say "whore" yourself you actually mean... offer up your back for luxurious rubs and your feet for bathing and massage, and your belly for food-intake (eventually) right?
Because anything else might mean The Sex... and oh Gawd, surely you haven't changed that much?!
Well, the need for self preservation can always lead one to uncharted territory.
I'd find someone like GNT or Gramps who know how to survive under such conditions and make myself useful by chopping wood, and other tasks which don't require survival knowledge or skill.
I'll be the Historian. We need a record for the future!!
Wait! So that's what "Deej Chart" means!Well, the need for self preservation can always lead one to uncharted territory.
You'll have to thtore your bookth in the library, Kurben. Where I thall be in charge.
*sigh*. Yes. I would have to do sex sh*t.
This is so wrong on so many levels.....but it's FUNNY!!!!*sigh*. Yes. I would have to do sex sh*t.

Well there's two words that probably shouldn't go together....
Oh Gawd...

I hate to say it, but... ahem.... Dana Jean doesn't need to cook. I cook (he says with self-aggrandizement) splendidly. But given what she's said, sure, Dana Jean can come along. She'd even like my cooking.
Survival guides are most welcome. I have exposure but no great interest because I figured that the probability of their need was subsumed by other more probable interests in the real, ongoing world. If push came to shove, I figured that Boy Scouts, Marine survival, and basic woodcraft would meet it - and especially aided by friendship with one invested in the process. Voila!
And now, having said all that, I bid you all a good night (or good day, on the other hemisphere), with the thought that I just bid Grandma good night and told her that I'd be up just a bit longer, because there's a germ of a story about two old cantankerous guys, looking over the End of the World, both with decent survival skills, with polarized political viewpoints which are now meaningless because there's no more politics to debate about, but the passion to debate politics and philosophy still burns. Doesn't that sound like a story? No? Well..... it does to me.
Good night, good writing.
