Very interesting thread and beautiful starting post.

In general it depends if one has thought about it in advance and made some provision for the event. Material, spiritual, whatever. I have a friend that owns one of the Thousand Islands. He has made himself a hidden fortress. I have an other friend that takes confession almost everyday to maximize his chance of going directly to Heaven.
Spoiler:
Funny thing. Both are very skinny and do not drink.

Myself I would not do anything different than what I do now, except perhaps being a little more on my toes for near by disorders. I would not be curious about news: there are so many disaster lovers around that I will be informed in spite of my disinterest.

Why? What a vulgar thing to let some mundane event to perturb my routine. That would be the image of myself that I would like to cast. Mostly to others. To myself, change vulgar to stupid.

I realize that my answer eludes the real question. Then a better one: I don't see the point of trying to make true things that I fantasized all my life. The circumstances would completely spoil the satisfaction, and worst, take away from me a pleasant and stimulating thing to be contemplated in the dark corners of my dirty mind.

So the answer is still I would not do nothing, Why? It would cost me a dream, for nothing in return.
