domestic self reliance for the average joe (snow time)
I was assuming water was a given, but yes unless your on a well, you should get water in your house. I have a few 5gal jugs and milk crates with 1gal jugs in them I keep. I also buy bottled water at Publix when they are BOGO as I provide water to our students during training, so I have a few... -
domestic self reliance for the average joe (snow time)
I have received alot of messages and calls from students and potential students about what to do for preparedness due to the recent weather here in Georgia. If you do not "prep" or have camping tools that easily make being without the creature comforts, this might be the time to invest in some... -
Where do your pets fall into place
absolutly. My dogs are great, dont get me wrong, but they don't play well with other dogs and chase any critter known and have a tendency not to listen. Lack of discipline on my part to train them, but ones an Australian Shepard/Boarder Collie mix and there is no stopping her lol -
Where do your pets fall into place
Alot of post have been about their pets and buying stuff for them, food etc What do you do with your pets ? do you bring them with you if you have to leave ? This is a double edged sword and tough to really decide, but if I could not longer live in our house due to crime/occupation and had... -
Tomorrow, when the war began aka Aussie Red Dawn
it is a decent movie, i liked it for its plausibility and realistic thought of how people would react. some people just want action, i like the deepness of some movies and one like this does show how I would see some teenagers handling themselves in a situation -
Tomorrow, when the war began aka Aussie Red Dawn
Last night while stuffed from eating, i found a movie on Netflix, Tomorrow, When the War began. It is an Australian movie aka Red Dawn and though it was slow, light on the action, if was pretty well made and more "realistic" than Red Dawn. They did have this in there which made it more... -

Any preppers in the immediate Gainesville area?
I would say I am sort of in the area, more of a survivalist to be mobile, but have storage at the house of food and toys -
Great sign for your business or home!
awesome, do you mind if I post that on my FB page for fellow gunners ? -
1 is none, 2 is 1 and 3 is some....even in the house.
nope and it did happen to me and another ODT member last year camping. we used his K-Bar, a stone and some other improvised tools and ate a few minutes later than normal, but we had to the tools and know how to get it done, so thats why its important to have a Plan A, B, C etc for issues not... -
1 is none, 2 is 1 and 3 is some....even in the house.
yea, you cant go wrong with a hand crank. I learned a lesson with Jhoneil17 (John as he pointed out on my FB page), we both had to improvise opening cans when we went camping, I left my P38 at home and he did too, so we used a K-Bar lol -
1 is none, 2 is 1 and 3 is some....even in the house.
Ok, something that I take for granted given my nature to have just about every gadget and it's brother around the house, but it made me realize if I was not around, my wife would be literally be toast in a SHTF situation. Tonight while making some homemade chicken pot pie, I was using our... -
New camp knife/pry bar
I was going to use "tennis" tape to wrap the handle when I get one to reduce slippage and add grip -
New camp knife/pry bar
no problem. Also, I can help them distribute it as I know a local knife shop owner who sells survival gear (hes on here as Gear2Survive) and everything else -
New camp knife/pry bar
I want the first one (as long as its resonable of course) and will put it through its paces. Can they make a longer one, more of a machete meets Ghurka ? -
New camp knife/pry bar
off topic, but I love Costa Rica, spent two weeks there in 2010 and Mt. Arenal has not had lava flow since I left lol -
I was unprepared when the SHTF
see, didnt I just put that in my response to "no gold, silver etc bartering" lol . Im telling you, TP, Alcohol (vodka etc) and wet wipes will be valuable. If you have a Publix nearby, they do 1c items on thursday's, last week was TP ! I made several $10 purchases and bought 4 4pks of TP for 4c... -
Scenario... Cash is no good. You have no gold or silver, how do you barter?
absolutly, cheap vodka also. Alcohol is universal in trading for its many purposes and will be worth more than you imagine. Also, think about soap, wet wipes and underwear/socks
