Default Emergency Prep?

Do you have stuff ready in case of an emergency. I know there are some guys here who are ready for the zombie apocalypse, so post up your kits and supplies.

I have loosely organized kit.. Currently have 60 gallons of drinking water, enough food to survive 3 months and firearms and ammo. I have bug out bags with essentials and a robust first aid kit and redundant medications.

I also have spare clothes/ blankets/ trash bags/ duct tape/ gloves etc.

When we had a blackout, we were able to quickly get our lighting and security in place and dinner and the entire ordeal was a non event. The only thing I really want is a generator, fuel and a few more propane tanks.

Food wise, I know 3 months isnt a lot, but I think if the shtf, I would assemble with a group of people and acquire food.

I also have a small library of emergency and survival technique books so that should help.

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 3000 rounds of 5.56 and 1000 rounds of .45. Not sure how many 12 gauge shells, a couple hundred I think. I really need to get a water barrel though.

We have monthly water delivery so I have 12 5 gallon jugs that we rotate through.

I guess in specifics I have about 2000 rounds of .40 ammo and 500 ish 12 ga (mixed field , 00, slug and combo high brass)..

25gal H2O, 24 days worth of rations, de-sal kit, chlorine tablets, various tarps and mylar blankets for field-expedient shelters, fresh batteries, hand-crank radios, duct tape, etc.
Should be enough to survive a fortnight w/o shelter, water, power or sewage. I ought to build a bug-out-bag or two, though.
