I love how people prepare AFTER something happens.

When I was in the Boy Scouts (a long time ago in a galaxy...well you know) the meaning of "Be Prepared" was drilled into us.

The concept of not being prepared was kind of humiliating. It showed a lack of planning and foresight on your part. I usually felt as though I had failed in some way.

The kid who did not plan was odd man out. Now that I'm an adult, that seems to have turned around.
