I went to an ATM yesterday to get $40. Instead, it printed out a coupon for Ramen Noodles.

There’s nothing wrong with Ramen Noodles but I’m not sure how nutritious they are. When you’re in college they’re a Godsend. The same is true if you’re very low on cash or just to have on hand in case of a problem. 

Its also smart to keep several containers of peanut butter and several boxes of saltines. Great emergency food. If you’re going to eat the saltines you better also have plenty of water. Is there anything worse than eating saltine crackers without liquid? There’s a word for that. I remember, death! They will literally absorb every ounce of fluid in your body. 

Maybe get crackers without salt if you’re going to put peanut butter on them anyway. A regular cracker by itself without salt is about as tasteless as an episode of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians”. Very bland. So maybe have both. You can store all of this survival stuff in your panic room. Just don’t let Jody Foster in or you’ll be stressed out. 

I think I will get a giant panic room complete with a restaurant, a couple of wait staffers a chef and a doctor in case the chef really doesn’t know what he’s doing. After all, he’s working in a panic room. I could have a small garden to grow my own food. This is a terrific idea, but I don’t think I could get wifi in it so if you don’t hear from me I’ve either completed the panic room or have been abducted by the women on “The View” they are scary.
