"When the bomb drops" Part 1

Something Danny said last time made me think about what we'd do if the internet was down on a global scale. I often think about how I would survive in different post apocalyptic environments.

So I've decided to make a regular blog article about how to survive "when the bomb drops." Of course "WtBD" is just a metaphor for all kinds of global destruction or disruption. For example it could be a meteor, an EMP, the apocalypse, a virus (biological, cyber or perhaps a hybrid), killed ninja llamas, or something far fetched like WW3.

Anyway, I want to be prepared! And I'd like some of you to be prepared with me. So let's see... what does it take to survive WtBD?

First, learn to be independent. Can you survive alone? Can you support yourself? What would you eat and drink. Be self-sufficient.

Second, you can't do it alone. I know it sounds like it contradicts Law 1, but there will be nobody in the group that can't pull their own weight. Form up into survival teams. Nobody can learn all we need to know. Strangely people skills will be more important ever WtBD. In my click we need people who have specialized knowledge like first aid, construction and agriculture. Don't worry, I'll cover leadership skills, archery, fishing, diplomatic relations with other tribes and defense of our compound from roaming bands of savages.

What compound you say? Oh, there will be a mighty compound. Wait for part 2 or 3 for more about the compound. It'll be part organic farm, part Waco, and part Disneyland.
