Hunkered down in Austin
I've never in my life seen bare shelves at the grocery store, even during hurricane warnings
or somesuch! But last Saturday in Austin: No OJ, no tortillas (well,
except a couple of stray packages of "low-salt" and "vegetarian"
tortillas), no canned beans, no cereal, no spaghetti, no bread... I was
kind of shocked! Luckily, I usually have about 2-weeks' worth of food
around the house anyway---still have plenty to eat. But damn: Who likes
"low-salt" tortillas?! (I think I would only truly panic if beer and
cigarettes and Cokes disappeared.)
