Default Emergency Supplies

Okay, so I stole the thread title from Ms. Alffe....she has a thread on the SOS forum about emergency supplies and it got me thinking. Am I prepared for an emergency? Could I survive in this house for several days without "contact" with the outside world or modern conveniences? What, if anything, do you do for preparations? Do you have a supply of food, medical supplies, etc. stashed away for just such an event? If so, what do you have?

Here are some of the things I thought of that I should have a supply of just in case:

Prescription Meds
Water
Cat Food
Cat Litter
Easy Open Canned Food (beans, fruit, tuna)
Dry Cereal
Batteries
Spare Flashlight
Neosporin
Bandaids
Tylenol
Pepto-Bismol
Plastic Utensils
Matches
Paper Towels/Napkins
Toilet Paper
Several Large Empty Buckets
Blankets/Pillows
Socks/Shoes/Underwear/Change of Clothes
Toothpaste/Toothbrush
Lotion

Can you think of anything else?
