Glenn Beck has a different take on Hurricane Irene than most east-coasters.
He says it's "a blessing"--a reminder to you to go our and fill your house with a cache of food and water so you're ready for Armageddon. (Or something--In this quote, at least, he doesn't specify what you're getting ready for):
How many warnings do you think you’re going to get, and how many warnings do you deserve? This hurricane that is coming thorough the East Coast, for anyone who’s in the East Coast and has been listening to me say ‘Food storage!’ ‘Be prepared!’ … If you’ve waited, this hurricane is a blessing. It is a blessing. It is God reminding you — as was the earthquake last week — it’s God reminding you you’re not in control.
Things can happen. Be prepared and be someone who can help others so when disaster strikes, God forbid, you’re not panicking. Read more: www.businessinsider.com...

Would it really be worth it to stockpile more than two weeks of food and water? After that time, wouldn't organized bands of looters be scouring the neighborhood and breaking into everyone's homes and stealing everything?
