I’ve always lived near a potential target. Just hope I’m close enough that I’m taken out immediately so I don’t have to linger in pain.
We took it to the next level when we were tripping around the Big Island.
Goober my friend. Goober, a butter knife from the condo, and a loaf of bread.
If we were having fun and not wanting to stop for a meal the non-drivers would make sammiches.

It was an interesting human "experiment" when Oahu had the false alert of an incoming nuclear ballistic missile. Obviously, we are a "target" due to our military installations so one would assume pretty much total annihilation. Yet students were shown (later on nightly news) running on the UH campus (to where, I would ask?) Some people tried to lower their kids into the sewer system (yuk!) There was one death (maybe heart attack - I forget.)
DW and I were in a meeting room at a church w*rking on a project with several other people. We all had a quick prayer - almost exclusively for our kids, scattered around the world - and then went back to what we were doing. Several bike riders who were going up the Pali Highway sought shelter in the church. We, of course, welcomed them in. Their eyes were like saucers. They must have thought we were strange as we spread papers out on a table and w*rked on our project. I finally went out to the car and turned on the radio. NOTHING about the attack - just news, sports, music, etc. Clearly, a false alarm - that wasn't officially announced for 35 minutes.
A very interesting experience. (EMP never occurred to me, by the way.)
I'm still one the fence on getting one that protects against EMP. They are not cheap and it seems that for total protection (house, generator, car) several units would be needed. They aren't cheap and the cost vs probability of needing one is what I am wrestling with on this purchase. One thing that really turned me off is the young lady I was dealing with seemed rather flippant on my questioning if their devices didn't work what would I do next. Her answer was, there is nothing could do then.
You all don't have your own personal Faraday cage? Prepper fail.
