I am extremely happy that you have finished what I read years ago as The Lottery in ZS's fiction section!

Thank you!

You are more than welcome.

We sold our rural property in Utah last summer. Our rural property in KS has just been sold. We got tired of our 'good neighbors' stealing everything not set in concrete, quite literally soon after each visit. You leave preps at a site unattended, count on them being gone - sooner or later.

I had promised to post a notice when the book was completed. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51WRh1hcYaL._SY346_.jpg The book is on Amazon new.

Support from the manufacture is pretty sketchy

Good dot IO support community though.

Thanks for the link.

What really threw me was a notice that the LDS leadership (@SLC?) put out a blanket ban of firearms in the facilities. The few LDS folks I know had a very hard time with that - seems no explanation was given. I have to assume its a liability issue. Apparently, dead parishioners are cheaper than bein...

Pretty nasty, dozen dead, flooding in Turkey from a 'small' tsunami.

Almost zero in the US press/Mass Media. I imagine more phiotos will show up once the international disaster relief industrial complex licks in.

I keep Chow, a sleep system, 4 x 1Qt water and other stuff in the Hamstermobile full time; We keep a pair of 'door load' bags with extra Chow and some sleep gear for DW + a full coomo pkg.

Don't visit Anchorage in that case. Last week, we had five dudes shot just around the corner. Drugs? Nope, a beef over a chick. I'll leave the demographics out of it - but this stuff now happen all the time around here. When moving to the neighborhood back in 1991, it was OK. Been heading downhill f...

A quick dive on the web shows many church's ban firearms in the facility. Given the number of different churches shot up of late, I find the reaction most curious. Guess I would have to give serious thought to dumping *any* organization that insisted I become a sitting duck while on the preemies. Cl...

My dad (now RIP) once gave me some great advice. #1 "Don't get in a pissing contest with someone carrying a loaded machine gun" Both brilliant in the wisdom displayed and on point for this thread. Oddly, I'm bright enough to stretch that to don't argue with a cop. Period . Do what you are told and i...

If not on a septic system, how many here have contact their local utility and asked where the nearest lift station is located? The engineer I talked with was surprised. I was the first person that called and asked this question in the 20+ years he had been at the utility. nice person, send along a m...

With a nod to my buds in the Rangers, we use the "1 sleep system per two folks". One is up and (hopefully) alert. The other can sleep better knowing someone has their back. A park, public shelter (shudder) or is Das Auto - one awake has been our 'standard' for decades. I always take the 'dawn' shift...

The images floating around on line are pretty damning.

Question is - will Jeremiah Elliot. (the fellow that instigated the entire mess) be charged as an accessory?

I guess he thinks so as he has opened a GoFundMe page looking for $ for his defense....

I saw a lot of snooty remarks like "I wonder why they're leaving?", usually with either implications or outright statements that they're somehow trying to flee some unstated punishment. I guess it says something about viewpoints that my first thought was "The smart ones are getting out before the p...

Depends on how deep the wound is in fact.

Pick 2,
Quality and cheap rarely go together.

I see used FT 60s on QRZ.om often, that may be worth chasing until you have ticket in hand.

Good luck.

And yet the minions that run that site allow it to stay up?

@Firefly58 You are correct, Brown rice is not a good LTS item. White rice, fortified white rice is a solid choice LTS storage item. Properly stored rice should be good for 30 years.
