Apartment Prepping, the Real Deal In My Opinion
I hesitated writing this because I wanted it to be comprehensive, but I don’t want it to be a book. However, I am going to let it be as long as it needs to be at this point. Yesterday, I was out at my NJ Preparedness Meetup and one of the people asked me how […]
Financial Readiness for Survival (A Personal Note)
I’ve come to terms this week and come to a couple of conclusions. That as a survivalist, prepper, or whatever you want to call me, I am not financially prepared for a large or even mid-size emergency. I used to be prepared for the midsize emergency, had no debt other than a car payment, and […]
Glenn Beck on Being Prepared and Prepping
Go into this video to about 11:00 minutes into the video, and Glenn starts talking about being prepared for the future. As he usually does, he rants a bit, but he makes some serious valid points here. This aired on November 15th. He touches on Food storage, but I think he should go into more […]
Review of Ron Hood’s Urban Master DVD “Away From Home”
As many of you know, I do a lot of traveling for work. In fact, one of my concerns is always security and possible SHTF when I travel. I don’t think there can be a much worse situation than being without any of the gear you are familiar with than when the SHTF and you […]

At first glance you might say, the vegetables are not organic, they have less flavor because they are factory farm grown, they have steroids, etc. But there is one advantage of the suburban farmers market. They get fresh shipments of vegetables every day for purchase at a discounted price. This […]

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 Skills Recovery
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 SHTF as a job loss. it […]
A Safe Room For Your Home
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 situations in the suburbs […]
