I would utterly panic if something happened so this list seems pretty helpful for alot of issues that could arise... are you joining up with the Dooms Day Preppers?

It's good to be prepared but im not that crazy ...yet.

I have a few things but nothing like that. I believe most people don't do that for there dog.

I think Whiskey is missing from this list...preferably a great small batch bourbon.
