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…
Review of Ron Hood’s Urban Master Volume 1, The Home
After it sitting on my shelf of a couple of months, I slipped Ron Hood’s DVD on Urban Survival in the DVD player this weekend. In the first volume Ron discusses Urban Survival tactics for the following categories: Home Away from Home Threats to Your Person Urban…
Economically Challenged Television
While flipping though the channels this evening, I came across a show called “Downsized,” and ironically to me, it was on the We channel. So here is what the show is about; The Bruce family is strapped for cash and $300 short on rent. Fearing eviction, they spring…

My “Get Home Bag” Replacement Contents.
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. Rather, I became…
Update On My Friend “Who Lost Everything” and Checked Into a Shelter
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 ago he took a commission…

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 reason I joined,…
Prepping For A Personal SHTF
Today I want to take the time to talk a little about something I have not. The title says it all, I think, with the exception of defining what a “Personal SHTF” is because, well, it’s personal. In today’s economy, I think that most people might define a personal…
Mom, Dad, Prepping, and Politics
This weekend I admitted to my parents, who frankly, would think I was a bit of a wacko if I fully admitted I was a prepper. I admitted to them that I had about three months worth of food in my apartment for any hard times ahead. They both, surprisingly thought that…
