Mike Rowe On on Lamb Castration, PETA, and American Labor

Sep 28, 2010 | Economy

I particularly like this video, especially because Mike expresses his thoughts on American Labor. They parallel mine. This video is sort of humorous, but bear with it until you get to the American Labor portion. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r‑udsIV4Hmc

Storing Your Bug Out Gear in the City

When I worked in NYC (post 9/11), I was always wondering how I was going to store any type of gear to get me across two rivers into NJ to my apartment, so I could bug in or bug out if the SHTF and the bridges and tunnels were shut down. I decided on, but never took…

Yikes, Inflation, Deflation, Bankers, and the Future

Sep 24, 2010 | Economy

I saw this on TheSurvivalistBlog.net yesterday, but only Part One was listed on the site. I watched it, and this made so much sense to me I found parts one and two and wanted to share with you. Mike Maloney discusses inflation, deflation, and more and quite probably…

Pedialyte For A Survival Situation

Sep 23, 2010 | first aid, Food, Health, Water

So, I was in South Florida on business last week. I had to take clients out to dinner, and had the opportunity to see some friends. Admittedly, I knew I was going to be consuming amounts of alcohol over the course of the week that were higher than normal for me. In…

I tend to think a lot when I have a little down time. I was on the plane for work this week and it hit me, that I am not sure h0w I would classify what type of an event and how severe it was before I were going to bug out or bug in. The more thought I put into it…
