The APOCALIST

The Apocalypse List (or Apocolist, as I so lovingly refer to it) is a simple and on-going list of items that would help us to survive if something ever happened - not JUST the Apocalypse.

The idea behind this list is that one day when the power goes out all over the world, or the internet mysteriously disappears, or a large earthquake hits, or when zombies become real.....that we will not fall victim to the fear-ridden and rioting masses - or become zombie food - because we will have almost everything we could need in order to survive (and also to live with some degree of quality). The plan thus far is to pack up everything we can carry or fit into the car and move out to the deep woods, or at least stay in the woods for several months until the rioting has subsided. Then we could successfully come back into town and re-up on supplies.

The list that follows is in no particular order, and is INCOMPLETE so if you have suggestions please add them to the list. Soon we will be able to compile a Comprehensive Apocalist that we can all work from! Here's to the future and the possibility of having to live without resources! (now I just need to start ACQUIRING this stuff!)
