Blackout

Supplies Needed to survive a blackout in Los Angeles:

• Water (Fresh) obtained from kitchen at work. Fiddle with coffee percolator until you can pee in the top and get out fresh water. Commence taking iodine pills once fresh water runs out.
  
• Full tank of gas. A fuel efficient vehicle. Fleeing inland only gets you so far in an SUV.
• GUNS - To survive on the highway, you'll need to fight off roving motorcycle gangs a la Mad Max.
• A monkey-proof shelter to lay low until natural selection takes over and only hot chicks survive.Plus, who knows what 40-foot apes will be on the loose. There isn't any power, anything can happen.
  
• A map to dry land, unless by some freak chance, California hasn't fallen into the ocean.
