Examining the Requirement for Multiple Short Term Bug Out Locations
Recently. I have been looking for a BOL property again. I have had several conversations with other preppers about going in on property together, alone, etc. Then I examine my geography and demographic, and it hit me… I live in a highly populated low self sufficiency demographic and geography. I need more than one Bug […]
Add One of These Budget Knives To Your Kit(s)
In a short sighted ambitious attempt to think about learning more skills, I wanted, and continue to want to learn how to make a knife out aof a blank piece of steel. It is something that I have wanted to do for a long time, as does a buddy of mine. While watching City Survivalist’s […]
Who Would You Bug Out With?
A question on one of the boards I am on popped up, and I responded, which I rarely do these days. I’ve been kind of burned out of writing and been focusing on building more preps, losing some of my flab and getting into better shape, etc…. However, I thought this was in interesting question. […]
Book Review: The Frugal Survivalist, Disaster Preparedness Under $500.00, by James Dakin
For those of you that do not know him, James Dakin, authors, Bison Survival Blog, is rather outspoken Prepper Survivalist that has STRONG opinions about preppers in urban and suburban areas. In fact, he calls us “Yuppie Preppers.” I find his blog full of entertainment, interesting paranoia, frugal prepper and survivalist information, and touches of […]
The 3rd Wave, Evacuation From A Disaster Location
Let me preface this article by acknowledging the source for the idea of this article comes from another peppers’ video. Unfortunately, it’s been a long time I’ve mulled over this topic and I don’t recall who exactly it was. With that out of the way, let’s get started. The subject of evacuation from a disaster […]

Saturday Videos
This week, I looked for more thought provoking videos than the standard stuff from week to week… As preppers in the burbs of a city, I think we all forget where stuff really comes from, and some of these videos address this. If you are thinking about a bug out location, some of these illustrate […]
A Prepper Ammunition Discussion
The other night at dinner we got talking about ammunition caches… We discussed at a high leve what we thought everyone should have (personally speaking, of course). One of the guys brought up JWR’s guide to ammo storage. As you may or may not know, I think JWR, is a gear nut and that he […]
And Then There Was a Dinner Meeting
Last week, I had dinner with three other preppers. One was new, and the two others I have been in touch with for some time. We all live in Northern NJ, and are concerned with the economy, job growth, Bugging In, Bugging Out, etc. The conversation twisted and turned in many directions. We talked about […]
