When the clocks strike midnight on January 1, 2000, every computer that stores the year as two digits will think it is 1900. Banks. Power plants. Water. Elevators. The microwave. I am not panicking. I am PREPARING. You should too.
Now playing: The Murk Theme
TIME LEFT
Only a few days left until the year 2000!
WHAT YOU NEED
Water: 1 gallon per person per day. Get 90 days worth.
Canned food you actually like to eat
Manual can opener (VERY important, do not laugh)
Kerosene heater and lamps
First aid kit and 3 months of prescriptions
A hand-crank radio
Board games (it will be a long winter)
Toilet paper. So much toilet paper.
THE STOCKPILE
Water 400 gallons + filter
Beans 150 lbs
Canned peaches 96 cans (my weakness)
Gas 60 gallons, rotated monthly
Candles 300
Toilet paper 144 rolls
Coffee enough for the next millennium
WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
Nobody knows, and that is the point. The best case: a few glitches, a lot of jokes, and I eat canned peaches until June. The worst case: power out for weeks in January. Which would you rather be ready for?
My brother-in-law says I am crazy. He also does not own a manual can opener. We will see who is crazy on January 2nd.
