Apocalypse Tip of the Day: Make a sleeping bag out of big black garbage bags and newspaper

You know someday modern society as we know it is going to collapse and you’re going to need a back up plan.  Or you know that it won’t happen.  I understand that perspective, but what if it does??!

Just in case, here’s a tip to keep in mind.

Take two black garbage bags.  Poke holes in one of them–that’s going to be the inside of your sleeping bag.

Put it inside the other, and fill the area in between the two garbage bags with crumpled newspaper.

The plastic and newspaper will keep you warm; the holes will allow your skin to breathe and the newspaper will absorb your moisture.

For added comfort, pile some newspaper between you and the cold hard ground.

Life is going to be rough, kids.

Thanks to neighbor Jeremy who might just be more paranoid about apocalypse than I am for this great tip which he claims to have read in some book somewhere.

good plan or best plan ever?
