"The Greatest Question Ever Asked IV"

Ok, probably not the 4th one, but what the hell. Sort of inspired by Ms NY's thread, this is a question I thought to myself many years ago, and it's stuck in my head since.
***

You wake up one morning, and discover every human being has disappeared. Everything thing is in tact, and as it was. Apart from the fact everybody's disappeared that is.
So. What's the first thing(s) you do? In order. Lets say 3 at max.
Oh, and we'll just say you've woken up whereever you wanted to be, to skip the pointless arguments of "Ah, but how would you get to Italy if you don't know how to fly a plane?". Unless part of it was sailing a huge yacht to whereever.

Go go go.

We'll just say the electric board has found a way to run itself.
Same with water/sewage etc.

Take a trip into town to pick up many CDs, DVDs, games and plenty of food and drink. As well as a car.

Find the best house nearby and move in.

End my days having a great time. Assuming I had heat, light and power.

sod the CD player, go into the nearest super-nightclub and get your music blasting out there. you can put a deck chair in the middle of the dance floor, a handy table next to it with your pint glass of beer/whatever in it, and comfortably sit there and let your ears bleed.

Sorry, that should have read:

1. Go round the shops, nick a few CDs and a bigger CD player.
2. Go home, listen to CDs on bigger CD player.
3. Await pudding.

Wow.
You really know how to live, man.

well most of my days would be spent driving various craft with massive engines in, eating and drinking extremely well, and sampling one new experience every day - something I've always wanted to do, but have never been able to afford or because the government wouldn't let me.

for example strafing a shopping centre with an apache gunship

First thing I would do? Seek out female companionship...whilst exploring the secret life of Alyson Hannigan...

Except she'd be vanished....erm...

1. Go round the shops, nick a few CDs.
2. Go home, listen to CDs.
3. Await death.
