  1. I have two 'friends' that are preppers. They buy hoards of dehydrated meals (a year's worth), ammo, guns, tents, out of the way property, etc. They are waiting for Armageddon I think. Yet, they don't know squat about growing a garden or eating healthy food. One 'friend' traveled with my DH last May on vacation and didn't even bring a coat, car jack, water, food, blanket, etc. His truck broke down .. he was terribly mad at my DH for taking so long to send help (from a mountain pass in Montana) .. go figure ;( Being well stocked .. does not equal common sense.
