And, if you have a water heater, it is filled with drinkable water.

There's normally only 2 of us. So I am pretty sure we would be fine for at least a week. Would be a blizzard like NEVER seen in our area to require that... Even a tornado in our area is so infrequent and generally not bad compared to what you could get. Not something we would need days worth for anyway. Usually very localized and people are rescued/taken care of within hours in most cases.
Yep, was including that part of your list, 80 gallon. I think we only have one of our 5 gallon jugs left. Need to get a couple new ones. But have cases of water.
The ladies are making breakfast and watering the garden. Yes we have our own banana tree, and herbs and Chili's, and more

Funny, but when the toilet tank drop-in cleansers first came out there was an uproar from the DOD since the water in the tank was considered potable in case of nuclear attack. They accused the manufacturers of the stuff as being communist sympathizers and agents threatening to undermine the US readiness for nuclear attack.
Who knew the Tidy Bowl man was a Commie?
Ok, car related question. Has any of you guys seen loose headrests to put over the seats in the old cars ?

Never saw such a thing.

I’m not sure I understand the question. Why would you want that?
A head rest that isn't integrally attached to the back rest frame offers zero protection in a collision. Worthless unless all you want to do is sleep against it.
Well, I just wondered if some of you guys where familiar with it, it was no more than that in the question.
The reason would be to save ones neck if hit from behind.

You're not missing muchI have not kept up with the broncos this year.
I would really like to watch the games but everytime they play, it seems something happens and I cant.
Yeh, my wife puts bleach stuff in them, so that water aint much good for anything but the next flush.
Actually, if that thing doesn't attach REALLY solid. It will be the thing trying to take your head off in a front collision.

The wind quit. Got a little brush fire 45 minutes down 101. That place has had a rough few years. Fire cleared most of the big brush 3 years ago.

Unless it is mechanically attached to the rear seat frame, it won’t provide protection in a crash. Too many dynamic forces involved for a slip on headrest to function safely. Screw it to the frame of the backrest and then maybe.
No such thing as a perfect direct from behind impact in a straight line...and that thing could do more harm that good being a slip on. A few degrees off from center and your back or neck is fractured by it.
The best is without a doubt not to be in a crash. I need seat belts too. 3 point belts.

If I wanted to add headrests, I would change the seat out with one made that way. S for belts, not sure what you need to do for your anchor points. On the floor, I think they are usually through a bracket or they add a backer plate. I know that’s how my rear belt were. One was rusted away, so I duplicated what the factor one was on other side.
A couple new photos of the old wreck!

There are 3 point belts out there, different kinds, even color keyed. I think they come with all the hardware needed, in other words, backing plate, and if I am not mistaken it should be possible to get one up inside the b post. The other two anchor points should be fairly easy.
