Zombie Squad

I gave my axes a boiled linseed oil coating whether they needed it or not. I did a little yard work, though there wasn't much to do. I need to put in a couple of braces on the patio bench I built when I realized there's some fore and aft flex. May do that later today. I have some motorcycle work to ...

Some of what I will get will be donated to a friend to pay for his monthly chemotherapy treatments. I already give what I can, so this will help him. Some will donate to at least one fund of a local business to help pay rent and employees' paychecks. A little may go to pay debt. Maybe I'll spend $1...

I also saw this news recently on BCUSA. So sad to hear, and one of my favorite YT channels.

Kevin will be sorely missed among us. I hope his friends and family remember his smile and company fondly and realize how many people he inspired and befriended.

Very nice! Definitely looks like it will get the job done.

250 rounds of Remington FMJ 9mm. Just because someone was selling it for 14 cents per round.

Totally non-prep, but I have books. Lots of books. I rarely ever go anywhere without a book.

To me, it's actually an essential survival item--for my brain.

Too much talk, not enough deals... Obviously websites that require account registration are different from the members-only websites mentioned in the original rule as posted. If the rule stands, then those members-only places could have a thread of their own, especially since there are always always...

Those wacky Swiss It's not survival, It's living

^^ I'm with this one.

I was a bad monkey this weekend.

I now own (what is most likely) a police trade-in Sig Sauer P226 in .40 S&W that's in some pretty fine shape. And which I got for a pretty good deal.

Bought some ammo for the first time in...a very long time. 9mm and .308.

Welcome from Virginia, formerly Colorado. Love that state--so many things to do, many of which require no participation of other humans.

Though I do miss the foodie culture of the Denver/Boulder area. And the oodles of live music.

It is a good prep ro have some form of alternate heating. I suspect most of these rural users have a decent plan b. Very good clarification of the issue, raptor. Though unfortunately, excepting wool sweaters, propane heat is the only option for a lot of rural areas in Colorado. While most places ha...

Man, congrats! Looking forward to updates.

Excellent update to a great idea.

Yes, but the Lourdes site has little (nothing) to do with nuclear or military weaponry. That's more why I was asking what the significance was on this. I suppose if the 'active jamming' report is accurate, then maybe there's some significance for US defensive activities, but... Appreciate the respon...

The significance of this being, in the context of prepping...? I'm asking earnestly, not sarcastically.

WW, just finished this video. I've been watching a lot of the show-us-your-steak vids, and I'm so glad to see so many of them.

Your line, "The best disinfectant is sunlight" was perfect.

Haha, hell no!

Will shoot for some milder weather for my return to camping.

It actually includes a footprint. But excellent advice! I have always used a big tarp folded under.

Yeah, I was happy to find one reasonably priced, and the seller was willing to deal on the price. Definitely looking forward to getting out with it!

Found and purchased an unused Kelty Trail Ridge 4 on Ebay for $154 shipped last week.

Thanks for the review! Haven't put much thought into something like this, but it's good to hear some firsthand experiences.

I just got this generic bicycling rain jacket from Amazon. It seems relatively sturdy and a reasonable fit. I'm 6'2" and ~230 and i have some extra space. The arms are elasticized and the bottom and hood have cinches. Since it's not a full zip, bigger folks may have an issue getting arms into it and...
