Resources and Commentary on Prepping in Suburbia
After a year or so of the site being down, we’re slowly relaunching it with all the old content, and writing new content. It’s been well over a year since I’ve done any prepping, and recently started again. Updates over the last 18 months are, Ms. Prepper is now Mrs. Prepper, and there’s the addition of Baby Prepper, too… I feel like it’s all new again, and I’m learning from scratch…
Bug Out Threats, Traffic and Fuel, Part 1.5, OPSEC
This is a supplement to Bug Out Threats, Traffic and Fuel, Part One. While traveling this week, it occurred to me I might have missed something in the original post. In fact it was brought to my attention by a buddy of mine as we were chatting about the possibility…
11 Years Later
There is not much to say today. Very simply, my thoughts go out to the families and victims of the 9/11 tragedy 11 years ago today. I don’t really have much more than that.
My Defensive AR Course with GAPPNJ
“Oh man,” I thought as I forced myself out of bet this Sunday morning, I feel like I was hit by a small truck. Wiping the sleep from my eyes, and prior to my first cup of coffee (as I write this it’s almost noon, and still need a first cup of coffee) I felt my lats,…

Hygiene In the Field, or Bug Out Hygiene
I’ve done a lot of camping this summer, and with the drought, you can imagine it was pretty hot out there. I can attest that it was. At our camp site we cut a lot of wood, and we used much of it for the camp fire. Those were hot days swinging an axe, and can say in…

The ASCELLA Emergency Light Bulb / Flashlight
UPDATE: 02/20/2014. It looks like 1–800-Prepare is no longer carrying the Ascella Flashlight Lightbulb. However, I found it on Amazon.com for you here. Well, I’ve been talking to one of the guys over at 1–800-Prepare about a new product they brought on. It’s a…
Bug Out Threats, Traffic and Fuel, Part One
Living in NJ is an experience unto itself. Just ask any of my friends who live here that are transplants like me. It is certainly one of the most unique places I have ever been. People here just want to get from point A to point B when they are in the car. You…
Local or Alternative Currency in a Community for Higher Economic Sustainability
On the ride home from my boss’s office on Monday evening this week, I was thinking about the economy, and the ramifications of economic collapse. I thought about how it would effect where I live in NJ today, and I thought about how it might effect my home town, a…
A Few of the Many Reasons I Love LifeHacker.com
Do you know about LifeHacker.com? It’s a very popular website that is about “Tips, tricks, and downloads for getting things done.” It is simply that. I like it because every now and then they have cool DIY and MacGyver tips that I think relate to prepping and…
