Checking in from the warzone like North NJ from hurricane sandy
no gas stations
no supermarkets
no power
no internet (explain how i am on in minute)
1000s of trees still down
wires down
(the town sawed a tree down and promptly tore one of the major wires down
7 to 10 days still go
i am sitting in HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS booooooooooooooo walmart and they have wifi
How the fluck are they the only ones in town with internet and fully stocked and open??? -Because they are a competently run business that haven't yet been crippled by parasitic unions.
feel like the enemy in here- Then GTF out ya leech!
surprised they allow me to go into this "forbidden" site of us commies/socialists/etc.....
went to electoral-vote,com
went to taegan
see we have clinched it :whatever:
Reminds me of the elepahnt joke (pun intended0
what time is it when Mitt thinks he is going to win Minn and PA?
time to realize Mitt knows he ain't winning the other swing states
Obama has it clinched
and people will vote even if its by candlelight
anyhow, try to get back later on...
and maybe Chris Christie will convert seeing all the damage and how much he wants to rebuild.
there could be 100s of thousands of job opportunities in NYC and NJ where it really is horrible.
hope everyone in harms way is safe
(people down our block did have a tree fall into there house but they are okay and walked around early morning as my health club is closed, eerie it is
and think halloween is postponed.
be safe
be well

3. Walmart have a IT system that expediates stock and supplies to specific areas in advance of adverse

weather systems...
That is how they will always stay stocked...they ship extra supplies ahead of time, based on anticipated adverse conditions
Home Depot/Lowes and others would do well to adapt this model
Primitive ventures out, sees destruction everywhere, yet it's main priority is not to help the cause, but search out internet service to post at the DUmp. Just what I'd expect out of their kind.

With all this "Obama's clinched it" talk, I firmly believe that the DUmmies are trying to set up the "Romney stole it!" meme.

They are going to say that even if Romney wins all 57 states. :)

25. Just got a report from New Jersey...

...and the local Target store is jammed with people trying to charge their cell phones. My contact said people were sitting on the floor waiting for outlets.
This would be a great service for organizations/government to provide to people who are stranded with their power down.

26. That's part of the reason I have a car charger.

My phone takes about 3 hours to charge, which would burn up a bunch of gas. But I can turn the car on long enough to check messages and make any necessary calls.
No wonder these idiots insist their hands be held by big gov't. They are a whole lotta stupid.
If the primitives weren't so intolerant and rude, a good and decent person like myself would help the DUmmies learn how to energize the 12V DC outlets in their evil personal vehicles without burning a single ounce of gasoline.

I work at Lowes. Both Lowes and Depot have trucks loaded and ready as soon as they activate their Emergency Response Centers. As soon as you get put under a watch they take over all stock ordering for the duration of the emergency. If you get hit you stay under their control until your area is rebuilt.
Once they activate stock begins rolling your way. Plywood, shutters, hardware for both. Generators, gas cans, water and the rest to prepare. Once you go under a warning in come the clean up and repair supplies.
All these companies, unlike governments in the NE evidently, have been doing this for decades. They know their shit and prepare for it in advance.

thanks for checking in.
Yeah, I'm sure that'll help. :whatever:

So Walmart is evil, but they don't mind using the evil corporation if it benefits them. Typical :whatever:

So if you're in the middle of this natural disaster what would you rather hear?
Hi, I'm from the government and I'll be organizing the community relief effort or..
Walmart, Home Depot, Target and Lowes are open and ready for business?
