Obviously not today, but it could happen someday - just ask TDub.

I was talking to a friend about the consequences of a major disaster in the US. He talked on and on about the big picture items but seemed stumped when I pressed him on what he would do for himself and his family. He was stumped when he had to actually think about something immediate and personal.

My family has a basic plan for a couple different scenarios and some supplies for some possible needs. Maybe I'm insane or I watch read too many post-apocalyptic books but it is something we've talked about at length.

What is your "oh shit" plan?

What would you and your family do if a major earthquake hit your area and shut pretty much everything down? What if there was no expectation of outside help for a week? 4 weeks? 6 months? Ever?
