It is just preparing for hurricane season. If possible, you want to
have a battery-powered TV or a personal generator to run absolute
necessities. Staying informed in a natural disaster is a necessity.
Radio is ok but being able to see a TV, even if just for a little while
each day is priceless.

Brian,
Hmmm, do you think rabbit ears will really help in the event of power
outage? Do you have a battery powered TV?

Levity aside...We can truly relate to your challenges...
We were out of electricity for a couple of days due to the recent
earthquakes that hit the islands. There are several notable lessons:
- Make sure you have an ample supply of essentials: food, water,
batteries, medications, toilet paper, etc.
- If you have "cable" TV, you might be out of luck in event of an
electrical outage...Always good to have those "rabbit ears" out or
better yet, satelite TV.
- Have a good cheap, portable, and reliable radio...Boom boxes & Ipods
won't help you much whenever there is an electical outage.
- Invest in a portable gas stove, if you don't have one...
- Invest in buying "battery-free" flashlights (yes, those wind-up ones),
as you never know when you'll run out of power.
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and the people in your
region...Take care!

Many homes here in our area (Seattle-Tacoma) are still without power
after last Thursday's windstorm. I have to admit that living off in the
trees like I do is mostly pleasant, but looking at my property right now
and all the debris it is amazing that there are still branches on the
trees at all. Two of my neighbor's big fir trees cracked in half and
fell in our other neighbor's backyard. My friend's Spruce tree came up
by the roots and smashed his neighbor's garage.
I guess one of the things that surprised me so much is the number of
people here that tend not to keep gas in their car's tanks or a supply
of food in their home. I don't even want to think about their other
essential supplies
- like medications. I was recently diagnosed with MS. You can bet I have
my Avonex and other Rx's on hand.
Snow actually sounds pleasant even thought the airport is closed and it
is cold I am sure.
Stay safe and stay warm!
Rock on!
