Resources and Commentary on Prepping in Suburbia
After a year or so of the site being down, we’re slowÂly relaunchÂing it with all the old conÂtent, and writÂing new conÂtent. It’s been well over a year since I’ve done any prepÂping, and recentÂly startÂed again. Updates over the last 18 months are, Ms. PrepÂper is now Mrs. PrepÂper, and there’s the addiÂtion of Baby PrepÂper, too… I feel like it’s all new again, and I’m learnÂing from scratch…
Who Will Help me Eat My Bread?
There is an old children’s stoÂry about someÂone who asks “Who will help me make my bread?” No one helps. No one helps plant the wheat, harÂvest the wheat, mill the wheat, make the dough, or bake it. But at the end when it is asked who will help eat the bread everyÂone…
Saddened, Stupidity, and Concerned. The Occupy Wall Street Protest(s)
It’s MonÂday mornÂing. I am workÂing from home, and I just have to get this off my chest before I actuÂalÂly start workÂing. This has been burnÂing all weekÂend long in my brain… I was going to wait to post this until latÂer in the week, but just couldÂn’t Had to get…
Prepper or Consumer Poser? That is the Question.
It’s been a rough couÂple of weeks with work. In fact, work has become increasÂingÂly busy. It was the end of the quarÂter and a race to get cusÂtomer conÂtracts closed up, sigÂnaÂtures, etc. For those that don’t know, I work for a softÂware comÂpaÂny in sales. It can be very…
Carbines, Shotguns, Rifles, and The New Prepper, Part Two, Contributed by Cameron Green of GAPPNJ.COM
This is the secÂond installÂment in a series of papers to eduÂcate the new prepÂper about what weapons they should have on hand. I’m approachÂing this from a SHTF sceÂnario, and while I’m not advoÂcatÂing using any firearm in an offenÂsive manÂner, I stress that being able to…
Solar Oven Fail
This weekÂend I had an “epic fail” (as the kids say) with my new solar cookÂer. I tried to make a simÂple dish, Arroz con PolÂlo (chickÂen with rice), but did not get past 100F. Why? The sun! As it turns out, SatÂurÂday mornÂing and afterÂnoon was the time mothÂer nature chose…
Promises To Keep : Your New Post-SHFT Credit Card
There is no honÂor among thieves. But, thankÂfulÂly, most peoÂple aren’t thieves. Even in a SHTF sceÂnario, with some excepÂtion (e.g. KatÂriÂna), most peoÂple do behave well. For the most part. LivÂing in or near a big city it can be hard to underÂstand that a perÂsons’ word…

A Quick Update…
Hey guys, sorÂry there hasÂn’t been a ton of new conÂtent lateÂly. I have been swamped at work and have not had the time northe mind-share to put forth new blog posts lateÂly. Once the month is over things should slow a litÂtle and I should be avle to resume a regÂuÂlar…
Rural Land for Bug Out Location: A Response to Suburban
This artiÂcle is a response to Suburban’s May 31st artiÂcle “ThinkÂing About BuyÂing RurÂal Land for Your Bug Out LocaÂtion”. A good artiÂcle cerÂtainÂly. I too have been lookÂing into the posÂsiÂbilÂiÂty of buyÂing some undeÂvelÂoped (“raw” as SubÂurÂban puts it) land, both as a BOL…
September is National Preparedness Month
Our govÂernÂment has desÂigÂnatÂed SepÂtemÂber as “NationÂal PreÂparedÂness Month”. This conÂtrasts with the FBI’s proÂfilÂing prepÂpers as potenÂtial terÂrorÂists. I imagÂine the mesÂsage is “be preÂpared”, but don’t be too preÂpared. We still want you depenÂdent upon the govÂernÂment, so…
