Use a spare water heater for storage

Today's BFI

Here's today's BFI (Brilliant F***ing Idea) . There is talk that some sorry-asses think Democrats will win the House this Fall, and these guys are Hell bent on destroying us, and all kinds of plague threaten, so we have to make a decision. Is it worth living in a Nation where Nancy Pelosi is governing? If the answer is yes, then be prepared.

Let's start with water. Every home should have enough water to get by for a number of days, and here's where my BFI comes in. Buy a replacement water tank now, even if you don't need one, and fill it with water. If al-Qaeda strikes, or Democrats come to power, you'l be all set. Not only that, when the day comes when your current water heater craps out, you'll be prepared to plug this one right in!. You're welcome.

Anonymous said...: You nailed it Claire. I have ten acres in rural Idaho, excellent clean well water with no chlorine and I raise and grow my own food. Except for pigs. I let another rancher at the other end of the valley take care of the pigs and I trade with him.; 3/9/06, 3:23 PM

So, what to do. Bought a bunch of canned stuff, and a solar-powered radio. Left off on any water tho, coz I knew I had a huge tank in the basement, full of very drinkable water.; 3/10/06, 12:52 AM
