In addition to the flu vaccine, consider getting ones for pneumonia. This is a silent killer for both young and old alike.

Modern cites and 'newer' houses will become unlivable shortly after the power goes out. Actually, most major urban areas are barely livable today (my personal opinion, of course) No power to pump water No power to pump sewage. Even if your current hooch has a wood stove etc, you still need food and ...

I for one would be really sad if this forum died. I was late to the party to start with and have really enjoyed this place. Woods Walker dieing has really brought it home to me that we all need to chip in a little more in order to keep this thing going. I, for one, have been looking for opportuniti...

bump for fun and any new folks not having gone thru the history files. Photobucket really f'd the internet up. Does anyone know their story? Just curious. Great thread. Would love to see your pics if you still have them. Since this site doesn't host photos... I do have posted stuff over at BCUSA, w...

I first saw the news on the BCUSA board. Came here to see it this was the WW i had so enjoyed over the years.

Sad news indeed

Perhaps now he and Black Dog can travel together...

More to the point of this board - 100s of thousands have been forced to evacuate - and many of the hotels used in the past for temporary refuge are behind the 'red (evacuation) line.' I've not seen any stories of shelters being set up - perhaps owing to he fear that the massive "homeless' populatio...

I'm now going back and bumping older threads that have solid prepping data - mining old threads may be one way to increase visitors/new members as the 'bots tend to ignore older posts for some reason....

I'm actually looking to fulltime, at least for a year or so. Buy a ~30ft RV, sell the house, and hang out in the RV until I find land I like. Once I'm done with that I might well sell the RV in favor of something like a Casita, Keystone R-pod, or similar. Or keep it and convert a V-nose cargo trail...

Yeah they’re great. I picked up a couple of the actual Trangia kits since this post. The main reason is that I also picked up a Bulin butane burner. The bulin burners on eBay are a Chinese clone of the actual Chinese Trangia gas burner. At less than $20 I said ‘why not’ but I found that the tighter...

another bump for history for newer members. This is an excellent thread. If you could update your first post with your current system. That would be great. IIRC it's evolved over time. This thread is an excellent read. I'll be referring back to it myself often. The only thing I do differently is to...

I recently picked up one of THESE cooksets from Swisslink. The cookset is a chinese knockof of the swedish optimus 77 stormcooker. It is similar to a proper trangia set but for a fraction of the cost! :D Here it is all closed up. There is a pleather strap to hold it together that is not shown. http...

bump for fun and any new folks not having gone thru the history files.

I've noted before that folks are asking about 'the coming civil war' and over look the one we are currently (ongoing) engaged in. This 'war' flares up to record levels from time to time - example of this 'flaring ' from times past: "The 1967 Detroit Rebellion , also known as the 1967 Detroit Riot or...

How about the dumb-ass here in Alaska that burned his own cabin down

viewtopic.php?f=32&t=123770

No secondary shelter/food/clothing cache. A real dumbass Cheecako

Got a set of studded snow tires for the Hamstermobile.

The Moon may be a harsh mistress, but Alaska weather is lethal. We call this kind of folks "end of the roaders' - typically wind up going nuts and killing others before they off them selves. In this case, the dumb ass falls into the realm of idiots like Christopher Johnson McCandless - the dead bus ...

"The words were quickly seized on by some who saw the sermon as fearmongering, and others who viewed it as a salient warning, as an economic collapse unlike anything since the Lebanese civil war" As noted in an earlier post. I found this article to be an interesting look at food supplies in general ...

Now that things in the Middle East have calmed slightly, ever so slightly, I see where the price of PM has stabilized. https://www.kitco.com/LFgif/ag3650nys.gif The Kitco chart shows the spot price of silver is now at or near a 10 year low. While I would suggest that PM is part of an over all preppi...

I've written 12 part addendum for use with my World of the Chernyi series. I'm not completely happy with the full document as the FAK part still needs some work. However, Chapter One, Water may be ionterest... Chapter One Water "Without the taste of water, cool water. Old Dan and I with throats burn...

The Russian Times is an interesting outlet. For "news" not related to Russia or Russian interests, they are surprisingly honest - by comparison to other media outlets. Texas recently passed a new law for a gold depository. Texas lawmakers signed off on building the country's first state-backed gold ...
