Riding Out Doomsday At Home:

  • Would you go hide out at HCC at The Regent, which was built as a hurricane shelter, able to withstand winds up to 190 miles per hour?
  • Would you go to the Restaurant Courtyard at the Westfield Brandon shopping mall, hoping for a good last meal (or stiff drink)?
  • Would you catch at movie at AMC The Regency 20, and just gorge yourself on popcorn and other treats, catching one flick after the other?
  • Best bet is you'd want to find yourself at a local place of worship, riding out the end times with fellow believers. Before the lnternet shuts down, visit the Brandon Patch directory and search for "religious institutions."

Whatever the case, we want to hear from you! Where would you ride out Doomsday? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.
