The Focus of Suburban Survival Blog and, if the SHTF
I am writing this post, because, it is probably something I should have written several months ago when I started writing a daily blog on my thoughts about suburban survival.

Another Post on EMP Attack
I will probably write about EMP attacks more than other types of attacks. The reason is that I think that this is one of the most viable attacks from a foreign power that we could see in the future. I also think that it is one of the most dangerous attacks that we could see […]
Going to Buy Some #10 Cans of Food for Storage and Use.
I have been researching food for storage. However, I have been researching food for storage that I will actually use, because I do not want to waste any money on buying food that will just sit in the can or container and get no use at all. It just seems like a waste of money […]
