Of course, this is assuming that you have a disaster kit. You should!! Heres what the government suggest you have.

This thread at CandlePowerForums.com has some great suggestions for a "when-the-sh!t-hits-the-fan" bag.

Of course, if you don't have a good quality bag to begin with, the contents are going to get wet, messed up, etc.

Maxpedition makes probably the best "tactical nylon" gear out there. Its is purposely "overbuilt" and let me tell you, their stuff is ULTRA TOUGH. They have their version of a B.O.B of the original County Comm gear bag. I've ordered the original, should be here Thursday. Trust me on this, the crappy Old Navy backpacks don't even compare to the real stuff.

As far as the flashlights go, I recommend Surefire. Not just because I'm a Surefire fanboi, but because they are truly the best lights out there. Super bright, waterproof down to 33 ft, batteries have 10yr shelf life.
And no, I'm not a rep for any of the companies I've listed here. I just thought I'd post some useful information here for a change! ;)

Um, am I supposed to carry this with me? I have all that crap at home, though water I generally don't have much of (I guess we could live on soda).

My computer has a carrying case. Does that count as being ready for disaster?

And you don't really have to keep it with you, just ready. Hurricane, tornado, major terror attack, you don't have to run around the house in a panic trying to get the stuff together if you have to evacuate. You can just "grab-n-go"...

Of course, but doesn't anyone even think about a possible disaster occuring anymore? *sigh* guess not. I guess I'll just have to make sure I carry plenty of ammo to fend off the hordes of the "unprepared" when the sky does fall....

Well, then don't complain about the pain. Just remember to clean it off when you're done!

Yes, two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half-full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls
