Razor shave your head, do this every week...problem one solved.
Learn A) crap fast in the woods or B) Balance your rear out of a high window...problem two solved.

But I look horrible in a buzz cut!

Only spreads by bites? That's not going very far. If I was father Nurgle, it would be spread in the air/water as well as bites. Then I am satisfied.

Wait, weren't you numbered amongst those who were planning to head to the shelter JP and I had discussed?
I could have sworn you were.

Same here.

I just wouldn't count on being able to go steal crap from people, looters tend to get shot rather quick, and people will get a tad defensive of what they do have.

I love end of the World movies and stuff like that, just got done watching Jericho, but I tend to think things will be more like "The Road", and I gotta admit my will to live would plummet really damn fast in that situation, just so...bleak.

mine would get stronger lets just say id be the one shooting looters

Don't get me wrong, I take self defense seriously, and your not taking what I own without a fight, but wanton murder of people looting Walmart for made in china crap is not my concern, not to mention, you know, it's murder still. And no matter how big of a dog you think you are, there is always a bigger one, like the National Guard.

Unless your implying you are in the National Guard, and look forward to shooting looters....

Both are acceptable if need be, my main point is that the world is filled with paper, so I don't see "what to wipe with" being a huge issue.
Now...where to gak...that's the issue, some form of sanitation (if occupying an area for a long term) must be kept up, can't let waste pile up in the corner.
Of course, utilizeing waste as fertilizer would be an option.

fertilizer?!?!? ewww.....human crap isnt good for that stuff,at least not as much as cow and other animals...

Not as good, but can be utilized for compost...have to work with what you have, and the ability to grow ones food as well as hunt/fish are going to be extreamlly important skills when all the super markets are swarming with dead folk.

Now, if you can cultivate the proper mold spores and make antibiotics we're in good shape.

Due to the rampant overuse of antibiotics by the Western world, the inferior form of Penicillin you would get from mold spores would likely be very ineffective, but, beats dying from a rusty nail so worth a shot.

Thing with looting houses is, that stuff has a shelf life, and alot of the "good" stuff requires refrigeration or it spoils.

I was reading a interesting way on how to make insulin via pig pancreases, but like most drugs, our bodies may not react very well to these weaker forms.

But yea, I try to tell my kids doctors to not give them the stuff unless its absolutely needed, Im sorry but you dont need those if youve got a common cold, or the flu thats going around, unless they get real bad.


Also, Ill offer my services for lobbing off body parts if infections set in. I can whittle a mean peg leg

Only if you make me a wood parrot that has a shotgun in it's mouth.

Of course that in itself could become a problem.

Anyone want to get in on the ground floor of development?
