So I broke down and became a van owner today! Holy hell that thing is huge! I can play raquet ball in the back of it. One of the best things about buying a car is the haggling, good times. The second best thing about buying a car is waiting for 2 hours to get in the back to sign the actual paperwork that matters.
I would gladly pay an extra 400 bucks to get that shit done or take a colonoscopy if there is going to be the time.
As I pulled up to the redneck residence, blaring "Girls" by motley crue, I felt that somehow I am that badass dad driving a mini-van; not the dad that is wearing a sweater that was put on his shoulders at prepcon.

Charlotte Prepcon!
How the hell did I miss the first one? Wedding! It was a sacrifice that I was willing to make, open bar and some good food will tear me away from a lot of things.
Back to the prepcon, this looks to be a good time that I will be attending and signing autographs for all my followers, just look for the bearded redneck with a camo hat on...I should be the only one.
I am a big proponent of being prepared (no I don't think zombies are going to take over the world). Why not, you prepare for everything else in your life (work, kids, purchasing a mini-van). It is good to be ready for the non-foreseeable events that might take place. Living in the South, we are exposed to hurricanes which is a great reason to keep some food and water on hand in case the power / water goes out and you can't get to the store.
There are a million reasons to get prepared, hurricanes, tornados, zombies, the mayan calender ending etc. But the main point is to get prepared, you don't need a BOB but a dedicated bag that has a flashlight, a couple bottles of water, granola bars, and a first aid kit should be the absolute minimum. This goes double if you have kids.
Hell even the gubment recommends that you be prepared with a 72 hr kit of some sort.
Worst case scenario, you can live in the woods for a few days if you Mother-in-law comes to visit. For Mother-in-law I recommend stashing a few bud-lights in the woods as sustenance.

Guess this is why I carry a Glock
I thought the timing of this post by Caleb worked out too well with me about to purchase a new ride. What kind of car is your gun?
I am way too practical, but I like my cars like I like my guns...reliable! All I want either to do is work when I expect it, I don't need any shiny metal or fancy features.
I also drool over other peoples guns, much like I do other peoples cars.
