Well, as many of you know, about a week ago or so my “Get Home Bag” from my truck was stolen from the parking lot where I had been parking my car for two plus years.  In hind sight, I think it was my fault for assuming that there was ample security....

So, it’s been several weeks since I wrote a post about my friend who lost everything and is basically starting over from the negative.  Today while at a conference in NYC, I had the opportunity to jump in a cab and go visit him.  Three weeks...

As many of the readers know, I have joined a meetup.com group for preparedness.  I joined for a couple of reasons.  First, as a “lone wolf” I was looking to connect with like minded people to hopefully teach and learn from them.  The second...

Well, eight days on the road for work, a weekend of a R&R with friends, and I am exhausted.  I just got home, but by the time you read this, it will be 12+ hours later. By the time the plane landed at Newark Airport this evening I just wanted to be...

This is going to have nothing to do with survivalism, suburban survival, or urban survival, unless you are talking about money, and we might.  I am in sales, started a new job about 16 months ago, and my income basically relies on much of what I sell....

Well, after being 0n the road this week, and I still am, I have decided that I am g0ing to start re-evaluating and writing in a more systemic fashion.  Or maybe systemic is the wrong word.  Maybe the right words are a more “organized way.”...
