Everything is bigger in Texas, until you been to Alaska
I am very lucky to spend at least four weeks minimum in AK every summer. Been doing it for over ten years. I volunteer my time with disabled vets taking em fishin and whatnots. We had some guys from Texas up there and being regular Texans they where non stop “Texas is great Texas is best state. Everything is bigger in Texas”. That was the trip theme... so later, I sent them T Shirts that had a picture of TX superimposed on a picture of AK... on the bottom it says “everything is bigger in TX until you been to AK”. Big laughsHA! Lived in Alaska for about 18 months - it's like being in another country. The Siberian part of Russia would be a pretty good comparison.

but it is so true.
Still sporting the 70’s stove and 8 lanterns. This would be the best time for us, as we are heavy on supplies because the China flu.No Coleman stove?
There are alot of people out there that have never killed and skinned an animal, fished and ate the fish or busted wood for a fire place or stove.I think there's a second layer beyond people simply not being prepared.
This historic winter storm was hyped on all the news outlets and internets and radio for at least a week before it happened. Everyone was warned.
If this was some natural disaster that come from out of nowhere like an Earthquake or meteor strike, it would be easier to feel sorry for people.
I know there's exceptions- older folks and the like. But no able bodied citizen of the state of Texas (or Arkansas or Louisiana, et al) should have to be burning toys and paintings off the walls right now.

Sounds like it'd be a good time for an army to invade Texas.
Santa Ana invades now looking for work and benefits, and he's winning. He may have even won.Santa Ana did that once. But only once.

We were warned in Augusta about our approaching ice storm in 2014. I still felt sorry for the folks that had no heat. Which reminds me, why doesn't everyone go ahead and plan for where they will spend eternity? Human nature I guess to wait until tomorrow.I think there's a second layer beyond people simply not being prepared.

After our storm was over the local Churches and organizations did get together to plan for future events since they saw a need of community support beyond depending on the government.
In other words the people taking care of the people more the way communities did in the olden days when there was no government to lean on.
