This entry might make people a little queezy... But.. I have started watching the show "Walking Dead" recently on Netflix and the thought had crossed my mind before watching this show, but today while in the local Walmart I had the thought come across again.. If the world as you know it were to be turned on it's nut, what would you do? What food would be important?? To me the idea of a apocalyptic event would depend on what happened.. In the case of the show where the world loses electric power would be different somewhat than say a nuclear event (war) or a zombie type of fun thing.. To me a gun of some sort would be needed.. But let's say you have only a single shopping cart to fill up and maybe a half an hour from the time you walk in to the time you leave.. No matter what Walmart you have been in it will be tough to find everything you want because in the real world they move shit around all the time.. A mom & pop grocery store you can find things very easily, Walmart not so much but the thing about Walmart is they are a bit better that you will find every thing you are needing.. Tools, let's say a saw, a machete things that are both tools and weapons.. Food, depending on what you are dealing with, lose of power and you are looking at food that won't spoil.. Here's where it gets dicey quite quickly.. Food, getting canned food makes the most sense.. Water no doubt.. Toilet paper or paper towels?? Then there is the food, again with the food.. Alright here's what I mean by the food.. Looking at the bags of cat food today I was wondering if there was any that would taste good, or if you would eventually acquire a taste for this "food".. As a trail mix eater (at one time) I couldn't help but wonder if any cat food could be like this.. The canned cat food usually smells almost as bad when it is being eaten as it does the next day ... in the .. um.. the cat box thing.. The shitter in other words.. I get heartburn when I smell some of that cat food.. Too rich?? I don't know..
Sorry to leave that first train of thought, I just remembered last night debacle with the Roku.. Why did it stop working?? I was up getting ready to check Justin.tv and switched over to videobuzz and couldn't get it to show my videos.. That has happened before, that time the channel had a brain fart, and eventually worked again.. This time would be different.. I then went to the channel store and it wouldn't go into it and showed the server was down.. Eruption.. Well not quite, I pushed the reset button and it restarted, but showed nothing was there. Then I went into the set up screen, and it showed my router fine and
fuckin' dandy Then I pushed to reset all, which is drastic to do but I did it, and when it got reset it went to acquire network and my network wasn't listed.. NOW WHAT THE
FUCK.. So we go down, and check the internet and my computer was fine.. What now?? Well checked the internet with the notebook and it couldn't acquire the signal.. Thankfully the desktop computer is hard wired into the internet, and I google the problem and instantly got the reply I needed.. The router needed to be reset, reset the router pushing the reset button on it.. That fixed the router everything is fine.. Pull back from the brink, the world is fine.. NO IT ISN'T.. You forget, I went nuclear on the roku (reset hard reset, reset that puppy). Oops, damn.. This is the tricky part, how did I get it reset two weeks ago when it shit the bed on me then?? Reset the pass code which took six tries to do.. But I finally figured out how that works (I think) and then just before Body of Proof came on the damn thing was back up and running.. I think I got it, the step where you acquire the link, with the pass code thing, the screen on the computer goes to "lets add some channels" screen, down at the bottom of that screen is the "continue" button.. PUSH IT and things reload and the world rotates like it usually does.. Life is good.. Being an idiot has it's drawbacks sometimes and last night was one of them..
But seriously what ten things would you get to survive the apocalypse??
