    The Problem With Gated Communities

    There's a lot to be said for living in the middle of nowhere. There are advantages to space, privacy, and freedom that you can't put a $ value on. Take your HOA and etc.- each to his own. I left my place opened up this past weekend, except for the screen doors. When I returned, the only...

    The Problem With Gated Communities

    Well, some of us buy property to live on and in, and others just look at it as an investment... A stepping-stone to that wonderful day when they can "move it on up... to the East Side, or wherever..." Some of us buy a house with the intention of staying and livingthere. I'll take freedom and...

    The Problem With Gated Communities

    You've got that right! When you buy something, it's supposed to be yours- to do with what you want! Paint your house any color you like, hang your clothes to dry on a washing line, grow veggies in your front yard, drive whatever clunker suits your fancy, etc. What good is Freedom and Private...

    The Problem With Gated Communities

    Never lived in a gated community, except for the old farm- had plenty of gates there- but have some kinfolks who do. They go on and on about how sweet it is to have neighbors who are just like you for miles in either direction, how everyone has to maintain certain standards (at least on the...

    Professur is right. Jerky, pemmican, dried fish- anything that will keep without refrigeration. Eventually you're going to have to go vegetarian when the meat runs out. I hope to be long dead when that time comes. Give me amino acids or give me death!

    MMMmmm... venison! Take plenty of seeds, too- the kind that make viable seeds, not the hybrids. Whatchamacallit? Homestead? No, Heirloom- that's it! "...and knives! Big fuck-off shiny ones! Guns for show, knives for a pro".

    An AR-15 replacement

    Aye, Gato, -good info ...but ye don't even need a pressure cooker. Some plastic sheeting, tubing, and a catch basin will make a solar still. Condensation water will keep you alive, unless you live in a desert. Then you're SOL when you run out of cactus juice.

    Global Warming Is Baloney

    "Layers of smoke in the atmosphere have made the Earth too hot to bear Earth might be a desert soon America has left the moon" www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGyeULvpQdY Damn, I'd hate to have to emigrate to cold old Mars just to find water!

    Monitors...

    Your best bet is a monitor lizard, the larger the better. They will keep the rodent and roach population down, as well as being a deterrent for Jehovah's Witness, Mormons, Holiness Baptists and etc. "I winged a census taker t'other day".

    Global Warming Is Baloney

    Bologna is Global Warming. Meat tastes good, but livestock eats a lot of grain and drinks a lot of water. What can an over-populated species like us do to feed ourselves? Soylent Green!

    The War Nerd / March 10, 2009 War Nerd: Apocalypse Never By Gary Brecher Sorry about the long break. I had to deal with my real job, even picked up some extra hours. Once I would have bitched non-stop about that, but I’ve noticed that everybody’s gotten real flexible about their...

    An AR-15 replacement

    Nothing wacky about survival. Guns and ammo are good to have, but the real survivalists are the ones who live near a spring or some source of clean drinking water. You can go a week or two without food, but try going two days without water. If the shit hits the fan, you're going to need water...

    I kind of liked Jane, too, just to look at her. Poor Jesse fell for her hook, line and sinker. Wish I could afford OnDemand. Probably just save up and get on DvD. Funyuns Rock, Dude!
