Bare Minimum Gear You Should Have at Your Bug Out Location
So, after having a conversation with a couple of preppers this week, I decided to put together a list of gear in no particular order around what you should have at your Bug Out Location. Recently I have been chatting with a lot of people around this, and it seems to me that while your […]
Judgement Day, April 21, 2011 = TEOTWAWKI? Hmmm… Is There a Terminator Around the Corner?
So today is the fictional TEOTWAWKI date of “Judgement Day” from the Terminator movies. The day that Skynet was to become “Self Aware.” Technically, yesterday would have been the day Skynet became self aware. Today, April 21st, is the day that Skynet was supposed to launch an attack on humans… I’m not big on […]
Northern NJ After Heavy Rains All Night, a Hard Bug Out Situation
Sunday morning I got up a little early, brewed my pot of coffee, showered, and out the door I went to northwestern NJ to visit a friend I have not seen in several months. We were heading to PA to pick up some additional ammo. My buddy wanted to pay less than the cost of […]
Black Swans, Why We Prepare
A few years ago I read a book called The Black Swan, by Nassim Taleb. While the book is primarily applicable to the financial crisis (it came out before the credit crisis hit and accurately predicted the issues), it also applies to low probability, high impact events that shape our lives and our world. Taleb […]
The Short on Shortages.
Briefly, I want to think Suburban for the opportunity to post on his blog. Onward… I’ve been thinking about “shortages”. What it really means to have a “shortage”. As I walk down the isles of my local supermarkets I still see full shelves of a wide variety of fresh good quality foods. And thankfully still […]
Accelerating the Purchase of Preps
Ideally, you replace one can of something with two cans of that same something when you use it and you are rotating your preps. Lately, I have been a bit lazy thinking I have had enough, but I really do not, and if you read Friday’s post, clearly my head is spinning about what to […]

Thinking About More Preps, Goals, Milestones, and Disaster
It’s a fantastic evening here in NJ, with the exception of my allergies kicking up, which reminds me. Time to stock up a few seasons worth of Zyrtec or some other anti-hystimine. As long as they as stored correctly, they should last for several years without worrying they go bad. I think it is going […]
CCW Class with GAPPNJ and Cameron Green
I arrived early to the location where GAPP was holding the Utah and Florida CCW course, or at least I thought I was going to be early. It was 30 minutes before the class was to begin, and there were already a half dozen people waiting outside the front door to gain admission to the building […]
