I live in an area that averages 48" -72" of snow each year, and each winter they are unprepared for the onslaught.

Both entities and individuals seem to forget that winter has come back each year through the millennium and will return this year too!

There is never enough chemical treatment for the roads, never enough equipment to do the job. Homes never have a supply of food or heat.

The only thing there is plenty of is people to stand in front of a camera and whine: "We did not expect this!"

A couple of years back one of the news crews traveled to an isolated area where the people had been "snowed in" for almost two weeks. No one could get in or out, no one had received deliveries of fuel or been able to go out for food and all were in the depths of depression and misery. A dozen people were standing in the snow acting on the brink of starvation and desperation. No electric, no fuel, no food. They were burning twigs picked up from their lawns for heat.

After a few minutes of this dribble the reporter asked: "We got in with our camera truck, why can you not get out?"

While in the background a pizza delivery car cruised past.

I do not like the term, but I think it was at that moment that I realized the true meaning of the word "sheeple"

yeah Monty, I am surrounded by sheeple, I don't think there is anyone here-apart from us- who has any more than 3 days worth of food at a time, there is a corner type "supermarket" in the town, a bakers and a deli, we lost our butchers last year, so its so easy for them to get restocked just walk down to the shop....that's until the delivery trucks cant get it, then what will they do? moan of course like all sheeple!!

sheeple are very good at complaining but no good at taking responsibility for their own actions (or lack of).
