My “Get Home Bag” Replacement Contents.

Nov 5, 2010 | But Out Bag, Gear, Personal

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

Nov 4, 2010 | Personal

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…

Lone Wolf or Survivalist Group?

My Get Home Bag Was Stolen

Oct 29, 2010 | Gear, Personal

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 home, make some…

A Safe Room For Your Home

Oct 26, 2010 | Bug In, Preparedness, suburban survival, Urban Survival

I am not really sure this is going to apply to those of us who live in apartments. However, I may touch on that in this post. Much of what we discuss, or I write, rather, revolves around bugging out. As mentioned in a previous post, I was going to consider…
