I’m worried about not being able to find TP when I get to AZ. I’ll be there in 3-4 weeks. Is this run on TP/staples going to continue?

...
I'll email you some. Just print it out when you get it and crumple it before use.

You use that many staples? I only use a dozen or so every week. Masking tape will work in a pinch.

Phone books are great TP. (I've saved a few)
Crumple the pages up and they get softer, plus they come in a nice easy to use rip a sheet dispenser !

Any one of you older plantation boy's remember waiting for the Sears & Roebuck's catalogue ?  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Stuff you recommend will FU cesspools and septic systems.
Was perfect for pit toilets.
Read up on "Family cloths"
Save a tree and eliminate a Democrat union employee.
Long story I got a tour of a toilet paper manufacturing
facility in WA state years ago.  Quite the operation.
from trees in the river to packaged goods.
My dad was buddy to the plant manager,
so I got more than the "Public" tour.

Now Mrs.CMO is getting more into it.  She picked up 2 mask for us at Maui Lowe's.  The N100 rated filter type one that creates a seal.  $50 each.

Did she get the one with replacement filter?

There are other places to get that level masks for way cheaper...

I don't want to stop her prep train.  She even ordered more freeze dried food from Sportsman's Warehouse on Sunday night.  I arrived yesterday.  Prior to, I was the one paying for all the prep stuff.

If SHTF, water will not be running and be a valuable commodity.
Bidet won't work nor will flushing toilets and using it to wash Family cloths would be a waste of water.
 I'll $#1t in a hole in the  ground and use my phone book.

    On the other hand, out here we literally have  garbage disposals in our 50 gallon collection tank which grinds everything to be low pressure pumped thru a 2" pipe.
If water is still running, I'll have no prob with Ma Bell TP and my genny.  :D

On the Big Island, most people have there own water systems.  You have to catch your own water because the county only has water in the city or in subdivisions with small lots.  Understandable, it would cost too much to run water pipes in subdivisions where each lot is 3 acres or bigger.

Fine by me.  I HATE crowds and lines.

But seriously, was pretty creepy going there and it was pretty empty.  Heard that Sams and Walmart also pretty empty.  Wondering how DonQ will look next Tue (Senior day).  :(

    Some idiot let their dogs loose which broke thru the fence and destroyed my flock of chickens.
Not only do I lose my supply of fresh eggs, they were kinda pet like and would greet us just like a dog would when we returned home.  :'(
Marilynn would literally hang out with me under the trucks when I worked on them.   :love:
No more morning greeting's, playtime before sunset or just flocking around.
   Of course I reported it and when the cop arrived, he told me "You need to harden your property" . :wacko:
 :grrr:

That sucks.   :( 

That happened to the geese that my uncle had at his property in PC.  The next property uphill side would have wild dogs come around every now and then and guess the broke through the fence and/or thick brush one night.  Geese are quite territorial, but also pretty good pets if they are familiar with you. 

After the cop said that, you should've whacked him in the head and if he took offense, you could've said "You need to harden your head". . .  8)

Nah, nah, don't do that. . .
