Just something funny.. A few days ago a friend called me paranoid. I said "I'm not paranoid, I'm just prepared", to which he responded "you're preparanoid". We had a good laugh, and I didn't point out my immediate thought, that if he had anything at all, he would be preparanoid too. Later, upon further contemplation, I removed him from my list of "welcomes" if SHTF.

Yes, welcome back Helen. At first I thought you were new and was about to welcome you to the board until I saw your join date.
Your "Favorite Weapon" cracks me up, LOL

Lol I have a long list of those.
HOLY CRAP! I know I'm a procrastinator, but....
Been busy prepping. I have most of my important stuff covered.
Yes Welcome back.
Warm Welcome (back) from the Arizona valley folks. 
EXCELLENT!! You have just met the promotion requirements for a real prepper. Making known your prepping to the wrong persons can go also "wrong".
Making sure the wrong persons do not show up after the SHTF, is a real important thing. In another thread is being discussed this very scenario. What to do with those who did not prep, have nothing, are asking for something/anything, maybe bring some knowledge, (or sickness) and what to do to/with/for/against these persons...
Keep up the prepping, hold down the fort and tell no-one if there is not a "need-to-know"! Live free, GP
Welcome from Tennessee
When I first bring up prepping to someone, I talk about it as an idea and see their reactions. If they respond constructively then after a few conversations where we discuss ideas and possibilities, I might mention that I do some prepping. I try to determine if they are on the "yes" or "no" list before I let them know what I have. And I have many acquaintances who react like yours did.
Howdy, welcome to the forums!
Things get better every day you stay alive, and I'm amazed every day that the sun decides to rise. Every minute, every hour, is another chance to change.
