Is it Flu or a Cold?

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says about one sixth of the U.S. population has had swine flu since it broke out last April. As many as 10,000 have died, including 1,100 children, all of which is about a third of the number of deaths each year from seasonal flu. The flu season’s not over yet, but we’ve had more than our share of hype over swine flu, haven’t we?

Frankly, I wonder if we can trust their statistics. I remember reading once they weren't going to keep counting swine flu cases. They must be deriving their figures from some computer model. Does anybody know?

One thing's for sure. There haven't been as many cases of swine flu as anticipated, and they haven't been as severe as expected. Could there be more later this winter? Possibly. We'll have to wait and see. At least now there seems to be less demand for the vaccine.

Since an important part of preparedness is staying healthy and knowing what to do when we’re sick, here’s a question. Do you know how to tell when you’ve got the flu? That may seem like a strange question, but it isn’t. Most of us live in the fast lane and don’t pay attention to our bodies and what they’re telling us. We don’t know how to “read” the signs. Knowing the difference between the flu and a cold will affect how you treat the symptoms and whether or not you go to a doctor.

I’ll summarize the differences between flu and colds here.

Fever
- Occurs in up to 80% of flu cases Body temp of 100 F or more may last 3-4 days.
- Rarely with a cold

Coughing
- Nonproductive, dry cough often part of flu
- Hacking, mucous producing cough common to colds

Aches
- Severe aches common with flu
- Slight aches common with a cold

Stuffy nose
- Not common with the flu
- Common with a cold May go away after a week.

Chills
- 60% of people have chills with flu
- Not common to colds

Tiredness
- Moderate to severe with flu
- Usually mild with a cold

Sneezing
- Not common with flu
- Typical for colds

Sudden symptoms
- Flu symptoms hit within 3-6 hours.
- Colds develop over a few days.

Headache
- Occurs in 80% of flu cases
- Not common to colds

Sore throat
- Not common to flu
- Common to colds

Chest discomfort
- Often severe with flu
- Mild to moderate with colds

Stay well and prepared!

100 Things for Preppers to Get

Click here for a list of things to get before they disappear or are in short supply. This is for general information and not a company's sales page.

I came across this info several months back and put it on my DestinySurvival blog. When I found that another blog had this list, I figured there must be some interest in it and thought it would be a good idea to pass it along here in case you haven't seen it.

Is a Pressure Cooker an Undiscovered Prepping Secret?

If you’ve got a pressure cooker for canning, have you considered how useful it may be in the absence of electricity? Why couldn't you put a pressure cooker over a heat source, such as a gas stove, camping stove, or perhaps a roaring campfire? I don’t mean only for canning, but for cooking ordinary meals, even desserts. Their versatility is underrated.

In fact, I think a pressure cooker is the survivalist’s equivalent to microwave cooking. That’s because food cooks 70% faster under pressure. Pressure cookers are quieter and safer than ever before. They require less energy and won’t heat up your kitchen when you’re cooking meals.

Pressure cookers come in various sizes, too, from 2-21 quarts. If you get a used one from a yard sale or relative, make sure you know how to use it properly and safely. Buying a new one for yourself or as a gift for a family starting out would be a wise investment.

What about recipes? If you buy a new pressure cooker, it may come with a recipe book. You may also want to buy Miss Vickie's Big Book of Pressure Cooker Recipes, by Vickie Smith, available on Amazon.com.

KEEPING OFF THE RADAR

IN THE AGE OF BIG BROTHER/BIG GOVERNMENT THERE ARE A FEW WAYS TO STAY OFF THE GRID AND PROTECT YOUR PRIVETE LIFE. WITH THE EASE OF BUYING THINGS ON LINE. THE USE OF DEBIT CARD'S AND FACE BOOK, MY SPACE AND OTHERS MASS MEDIA. IT HAS BECOME ALMOST IMPOSSABLE TO STAY OFF THE GOVERMENT RADAR. BUT YOU CAN GO STALTH MODE ...........

• USE A SHEET FROM YOUR BED AS A BACKGROUND FOR VIDEO CHATS.(THE USE OF A SHEET PROTECTS YOU HOME FROM UNWANTED EXAMANATION AND FOLKS CANT SEE WHAT YOU DO OR DONT HAVE)
• UNPLUG YOUR WEB CAM WHEN NOT USEING IT (WITH TODAYS TECH IT'S POSSABLE TO REMOTE ACTIVEATE YOUR WEB CAM)
• BUY ALL AMMO AND PREPS WITH CASH.(HARDER TO PROFILE YOU)
• POST NO PERSONAL DATY ON THE WEB .
• KEEP ALL FINANCIAL DATA ON FLASH DRIVES NOT YOUR HARD DRIVE .
• KEEP 2 COPYIES OF ALL IMPORTANT FILES ONE ON PAPER THE OTHER ON A FLASH DRIVE OR CD.
• KEEP A "CASH RESERVE" IN A SAFE PLACE OTHER THAN YOUR HOME.
• AVOID SAFTY DEPOSIT BOXES( THE BANKS ARE IN BED WITH THE GOVERMENT)
• DO NOT POST YOUR STATE OF PREPAREDNESS .
• TELL NO ONE NOT EVEN YOUR MOTHER WHAT YOU HAVE ( FOR IF SOME ONE KNOWS THEY BECOME A LIABILTY.
• KEEP NO RECORDS OF GROUPS YOU BELONG TO . THEY COULD BE DECLARED ENEMY OF THE STATE AND LAND YOU IN A REEDUCATION CAMP OR SHOT ON SITE.

SO BE SAFE BE CAREFULL YOU NEVER KNOW WHO'S WATCHING YOU...............MADDOG

Take a Sip, Order Seeds, and Read for Preparedness Pleasure

This is my first post for the Missouri Preppers Network. You’ll see a link to my regular blog, DestinySurvival.com, on the sidebar here. My thanks to Maddog and American Trucker for allowing me to contribute here.

I thought I’d start out with something light in nature, partly because I want to promote a Missouri publication and seed company.

If you’re living the self reliant life and want to do as much of your own food and beverage production as possible, there’s an article in the Fall 2009 issue of “The Heirloom Gardener” magazine I think you’ll find of interest. I know some are into home brewing for beer and wine, but this isn’t about that. The article I refer to is “Making Your Own Soda Pop” on pages 20-24 and describes the process for making your own syrups from fruits and herbs.

I personally drink soda pop rarely and stay away completely from diet soda because of the harmful aspartame it contains. However, a root beer or orange drink is a treat now and then. Barbara Berst Adams, author of the soda pop article suggests making soda pop from strawberries, pears, peaches, or even rose petals, to name a few. You’ll use a lot less sugar than conventional soda pop, and you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing it’s the real deal.

Granted, this isn’t a preparedness necessity, but it can be lots of fun for children. Just as when I suggested on my own blog last summer that it would be a good idea to buy an ice cream freezer, making your own soda pop can be a morale booster in the midst of deprivation.

There’s much more to “The Heirloom Gardener” which I think you would really enjoy. Very little of their content is online, but a print subscription is only a few dollars per year. The magazine is produced with numerous beautiful, colorful photographs, and you won’t be blitzed with advertisements.

As the name suggests, articles are about gardening with heirloom or heritage plants and seeds, such as tomatoes, beans, herbs, and flowers. There’s a brief news section up front on what’s happening in the world of Frankenfoods—genetically modified seeds and foods. Historical profiles of individuals are sometimes featured, such as founders of old seed companies. The current issue profiles the Missouri Botanical Gardens in St. Louis.

I recommend getting a subscription to “The Heirloom Gardener” for yourself, or get a gift subscription for someone you know who’s into survival gardening. You can check out the magazine’s site and subscribe at http://www.theheirloomgardener.com .

“The Heirloom Gardener” is published by the folks at Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds in Mansfield, MO, which specializes in heirloom seeds. Their catalog, like the magazine, is quite colorful and interesting. I buy a little something from them every year. I particularly like their selection of black-eyed peas, though they’re big into melons from Asia, lots of tomatoes, and a whole lot more. If you’re into gardening at all, you know it’s never too early to start thinking about next year’s garden. Check out Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds at http://www.rareseeds.com . You’ll be glad you did.

HUNTING TIME

THE TIME HAS COME ONCE MORE. HUNTING SEASON DEER , RABBIT , SQUIRREL OR OTHER GAME. I WOULD LIKE TO STRESS ONE OF MY PET PEEVES --SAFETY -- A SAFE HUNT IS A GREAT HUNT YOU CAN'T HIT THE RESET BUTTON AND BRING BACK A FRIEND OR LOVED ONE BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO BE RAMBO OF THE WOODS AND ARE JUST TO COOL. EACH YEAR WE HERE ABOUT A HUNTER BEING INJURED BECAUSE SOMEONE WAS CARELESS SO LET'S BE SAFE THIS AND EVERY YEAR.

LET ME SET THE TONE FOR YOU ALL DEER CAMP --------- HOW MANY HRS HAVE YOU SPENT WITH FRIENDS SITTING AROUND THE FIRE ? STOOTING THE BREEZE TALKING ABOUT NOTHING. MANY FORGET THAT THE KILL IS NOT THE MOST SATAFING PART OF HUNTING. FOR ME IT'S THE HUNT AND TIME SPENT OF FIELD. I ENJOY THE MEAT PROVIDED BY THE HUNT BUT IF I DONT BAG MY LIMIT MY WORLD DOSN'T END. I STILL HAVE THE EXPERENCE OF THE TIME SPENT A FIELD.
THAT I CAN REVISIT AT ANY TIME .

I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE ONE OF THEM HUNTS WITH YOU. THE YEAR EARLY 90'S . THE LOCATION CALIFORINA . THE PREY A LARGE MULE DEER I SPOTED EARLYER IN THE YEAR WHILE COON HUNTING .

WE HAVE SNOW COMMING DOWN AND WERE TRAKING THE BIG FELLOW NEVER HAD A DEER COVER SO MUCH COUNTRY BUT THIS GUY WAS ON THE MOVE . NOT DOWN TO THE LOW LAND BUT HIGHER INTO THE SERRIA NEVADA'S WE CLIMB WELL ABOVE 6500 FT THE HR IS LATE AFTERNOON AND THEM PACKS ARE GETTING HEAVY WERE A GOOD 11 MILES AS THE CROW FLY'S TO THE TRUCK BUT HAVE COVERED 15 OR MORE . OL BOBBY SUGGEST WE CUT OVER TO BAMBI LODGE A SMALL INN IN THE MIDLE OF NO WERE A PLACE CALLED GREEN MEADOWS A 12 ACRE PLOT OF THE MOST BEATAFULL MOUTAIN MEADOW ALONG DEER CREEK AT THE 6000FT LEVEL AS A MAN HAS EVER SEEN.

THIS PLACE WAS SMALL 4 ROOMS ONLY AND ALL WERE FILLED WITH OTHER HUNTER'S. SO AFTER ONE OF THE BEST MEAL'S I HAVE EVER EATEN AND A QUICK SHOWER WE MADE OUR BEDS OUT ON THE LARGE WOOD FLOOR OF THE MAIN ROOM THAT ACTED AS SITTING ,DINING AND MEETING ROOM WITH A LARGE STONE FIREPLACE AND DRANK COFFEE AND BS'ED TILL AFTER NIDNITE WITH THE OTHERS BEDING DOWN JUST LIKE US.

WE SPOTED EACH OTHER ABOUT THE SAME TIME THERE I STAND RIFLE UP HIM IN THE CROSSHAIRS AND HYIM JUST LOOKING BACK AT ME . I SWEAR HE WOULD HAVE SCORED 240 B&C OR BETTER THERE WE STOOD LOOKING AT EACH OTHER ALL I WOULD NEEDED TO HAVE DONE WAS TWITCHED AND THE BIG 300 WEATHERBY WOULD HAVE DROPED HIM LIKE A HAMMER AT LESS THAN 150 YARDS . AND TO THIS DAY I DONT KNOW WHY7 I DIDN'T PULL THE TRIGGER BUT I DIDN'T . HE CALMLY WALKED BACK INTO THE TREE LINE AND ME AND BOBBY WENT BACK TO THE LODGE AND CALLLED MY GRANDPA TO COME GET US . WHILE WE WAITED WE RECOUNTED THE HUNT 2 DAYS 20 MILES OR SO AND A HUNT THAT WILL REMAIN WITH ME TILL THE DAY I DIE. NEVER SEEN THAT BIG BUCK AGINE FIGURED SOMEONE ELCE BAGED HIM I HOPE NOT BECAUSE WITH OUT HIM THER WOULD HAVE BEEN NO HUNT NO MEMORIES TO RECALL .

home canning spaghetti sauce

15 quarts of our finest spaghetti sauce is in the canners right now. ok you got me 14 we had one for dinner. we can our own sauce becouse it's better than store bought . i;e no suger added no junk we dont need in our diet. our garden did'nt purduce at all this year we planted to late and it never got hot . we had only nine or ten days of heat and it has rained almost non stop. so all the goodies cam from the store we put in our sauce this time . we sent 50 lbs of food to a friend of ours mom. here daughter stole her car and left two kids behind and she's on a fixed income. the state is going to provide aid to her but that takes time so we sent some things we need to rotate any way so we killed two birds with one stone.



Deer season is almost apone us i think i will harvest two this year i havent given it much thought but one for sausage and jerky maybe i'l can some for a rainy day and the other for freezer meat.



I would like to agine stress the need to prep both with supply's and money i did the first but i had not planed by putting away at least 6 months worth of cash. we have been set on the grub side but cash money has been a problem i just took a job cleaning out dog kennel's for 6.50 an hr and it's only 4 day's a week 3-4 hrs a day and i have to drive 70 miles round trip but moneys money in this day and age so prep on my friends be ready for any interruption in food or cash ---be strong maddog

MOCK BUGOUT

BEING UNEMPLOYED HAS SLOWED ME DOWN A BIT ON MY PREP'S BUT I PLUNG ON. I HAVE ADDED A FEW THINGS TO MY PREP'S LIST--- 1 STAINLESS STEEL COFFEE POT .IT'S AN OLDER ONE AND MAD FAR BETTER THAN THE CRAP TODAY . I ADDED A FEW PEICE'S OF TUPPERWARE GREAT STUFF WATER TIGHT I USE IT TO STORE MY BUG OUT SILVERWARE . AND A 7 DAY SUPPLY OF COFFEE. ALL ITEMS COST ME LESS THAN 3 BUCK'S AT A LOCAL FLEA MARKET. ON THE BUGOUT FRONT WE HAVE TAKEN THE FREE TIME TO DO A MOCK BUG OUT AND ALL DID NOT GO AS PLANED . IT TOOK US AN HOUR TO LOAD THE EXPLORER NOT A GOOD START. WHEN WE MADE CAMP IT WAS A SMALL CIRCLE JERK. ( WE DID THIS WITH MY BROTHER AND SISTER IN LAW) FIRST THEY TRIED TO SET UP THERE TENT IN A AREA THAT WAS A WATER RUNOFF INTO THE LAKE. HEY THERE MY INLAW'S NOT THE SMARTIST OF FOLKES. SO AFTER 30 MIN OF EXPLAINING TO THEM WHY THEY SHOULD MOVE THERE TENT THEY RELENTED AND DID . GOOD NEW'S NO RAIN.

THE WELL ARMED FRUGIL PREPPER/ GARDEN STUFF

AS THE SON OF A GUN SMITH AND A GUN NUT I READ A LOT OF REVIEWS AND FOLLOW THE BLOG'S. AND THERE IS SO MUCH INFO OUT THERE THAT A PERSON CAN GET CONFUESED. WHAT IS BETTER WHO'S IS BETTER ECT.... I SEE THE POST'S AND HAVE COMPILED A TON OF DATA IN THE OL BRAIN PAN SO I WILL INJECT MY TWO CENT'S IN AND TRY TO COVER ALL THE BASES AND SOME NEW ONE'S TO.
THE WELL ARMED FRUGIL PREPPER ? WHAT DOES IT MEAN WELL ARMED ? WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A WELL ARMED PREPPER. WELL IT MEAN'S YOU HAVE THOUGHT A HEAD AND USED YOUR HEAD . I OWN ALOT OF GUN'S HAVE BEEN COLLECTING THEM ALL MY LIFE SO I HAVE LOT'S OF CHOICE'S BUT WERE NOT TALKING ABOUT ME WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE AVREGE PERSON AND THERE CHOICE OF WEAPON'S . HOW MANY, WHAT KIND, WHAT BRAND ECT... SO LET'S BREAK IT DOWN TO THE BASIC'S . KIND , BRAND , STYLE AND CAL...

WHAT KIND OF WEAPON YOU BUY WEATHER IT BE A RIFLE, PISTOL, REVOLVER , SHOTGUN ,SEMIAUTO , BOLT ACTION, SINGLE SHOT OR MUZZEL LOADER
IS DETERMINED BY 4 FACTORS 1-LOCATION 2-SKILL LEVEL 3-MONEY 4-LEVEL OF COMFORT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON.
LET START WITH LOCATION .MEANING WERE DO YOU LIVE . WEATHER IT BE NORTH, SOUTH ,EAST OR WEST MAKES A STARTING POINT OF YOUR REQUIRMENT'S . IN THE SOUTH A 30-30 WILL KILL ANY ANIMAL THAT WALK'S BUT THE SAME 30-30 IN MONTANA WILL FAIL AND YOU WILL BE BEAR CRAP.
IN MOST EASTERN STATES. EAST OF THE BIG MUDDY AND SOUTH OF MAINE A WELL ARMED PREPPER WILL BE ARMED WITH A 30-30 ,270,12 GAUGE OR 20 GAUGE PUMP AND SOME THING IN THE 9MM/ 38spl RANGE YOU PROBLEY WONT ENCOUNTER A LONG DISTANCE SHOT OF MORE THAN 125 YARDS .
MIDDLE AMERICA A 30-30 ,270 243,30-06 12GAUGE PUMP 38/357,9MM,.45LC AND 45ACP WILL COVER ANY CRITTER YOU ENCOUNTER
OUT WEST 270,30-06,338 ,7MM,300 WIN MAG ,8MM MAG 12 GAUGE PUMP AND PISTOLS OF 357,45ACPAND 45LC ARE REQUIRED 200+ YARD SHOTS LARGE BEARS AND LARGE DEAR ALL NEED THE LARGER ROUNDS.
BUT FOR THE AVREGE PERSON A 12 GAUGE PUMP (MOSSBERG 500A) (UNDER 300 DOLLARS) WILL COVER ALL THE BASES PERSNOL DEFENCE (00 BUCK) FOOD (#6,#4 SHOT) WILL COVER SMALL GAME AND BIRD'S. DEAR AND BLACK BEAR (00 BUCK AND SLUG'S 1oz) ALL IN 2 3/4 in AND IF THE PERSON WANTS THEY CAN ADD A MARLIN mod60 .22 RIFLE AND A S&W mod10 38spl REVOLVER ALL FOR LESS THAN 750 DOLLARS (REVOLVER IS WHAT JACKES UP PRICE . MARLIN CAN BE FOUND IN ANY PAWN SHOP FOR LESS THAN 125 DOLLARS) SO REALY FOR 450 DOLLARS YOU CAN BE WELL ARMED WITHE 2 GUN,S AND LOT'S OF AMMO.

ON THE PART OF DEEP THOUGHT I SEE A SHIT STORM COMMING AND NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT .THERE ARE FACT'S THE PUBLIC ARE NOT ATUNE TO THE FACT'S ARE AS FOLLOW'S WE ARE LINED UP FOR THE PERFECT STORM. RUSSIA WILL INVADE GEORGA AND THEN HOLD THE REST OF ERUOPE HOSTAGE FOR ONCE THEY CONTROL THE OIL AND GAS ERUOPE WILL BE AT THERE MERCY. THEY HAVE ALREADY TOLD THE WHITE HOUSE TO BACK OFF AND WE WILL FOR WE ARE WEAK AS A NATION WE HAVE BECOME A BUNCH OF LOLLY POP SUCKERS.

JUST A THOUGHT

I ROAM FREE ACROSS THIS LAND. I ENJOY MY FREEDOM I HAVE SEEN WONDERS NOT MANY HAVE ENJOYED. THE SUN RISE ON THE ALANTIC, THE SUN SET ON THE PACIFIC . I HAVE SEEN THE HARDNESS OF AMERICAN'S ALSO I HAVE SEEN THE KINDNESS. THE YOUNG OR THE OLD FROM THE FAR NORTH TO THE DEEP SOUTH AMERICAN'S HAVE LEFT THERE MARK. I HAVE SEEN THE MORNING MIST IN THE SMOKEY MOUTAINS OR THE SIMPLE MAN IN THE APALASHION MOUTAINS.
I HAVE BREATHED DEEP THE STILL DESERT AIR OF THE AMERICAN SOUTH WEST.
I ENJOY THESE THINGS BECOUSE I'M AN AMERICAN.

ALL THE WORLD WANT'S TO BE AMERICAN'S THEY BRING MANY BENIFITS TO US THEY ALSO BRING DISEASE BLYT AND SOME THINK WE SHOULD BE MORE LIKE THERE HOME COUNTRY. HENCE WE HAVE IMERIGRASION WE HAVE LOST THE BASIC FORMAT AND NOW WE PAY BECOUSE IT'S POLICALY EXPENDENT TO HAVE OPEN BORDERS AND I HOPE MILLION'S NEED NOT PARISH TO REMIND US .

MUSHROOMS

THE MIGHTY MOREL MY WIFE AND CHILDREN HAVE BEEN BUSY GATHERING NATURES HARVEST. SOME WILL BE FRIED , DRIED AND CANNED . NATURE HAS SO MUCH TO OFFER AND WITH A LITTLE WORK THE BOUNTY ABIDES . NEXT WE'LL GET THE GARDEN IN THEN IT WILL BE BLACKBERRY SEASON. AND BY FALL THERE WILL BE A FLURRY OF ACTIVTY WITH JAMS,JELLYS, CANNING AND DRYING THAT WINTER WILL HAVE ARRIVED.

GOD WILL PROVIDE FOR THOES WHO SEEK .

LABELS

I HAVE BEEN CALLED EVERY THING BUT AN AMERICAN. TERRORIST , RIGHT WING EXTREMIST , WHITE SUPREMEST , NEO NAZI. I HAVE BEEN SHUN BY MY FRIENDS WHY ? I'LL TELL YOU WHY I'M A HARD LINER CONSERVATIVE . I WILL NOT BE TREAD ON BY NO MAN OR GOVERNMENT . I WILL NOT BE HARMED OR ALLOW MY FAMILY TO BE HARMED . I BELIEVE I HAVE SCARED TOM BECAUSE I HAVE A HARD LINE IF A PERSON OR GROUP PLAN TO TO ME OR MINE HARM I WILL SHOW NO QUARTER.
FOR THIS REASON I BELIEVE I WORRIED TOM . IF ONE HAS TO USE FORCE KILL THEM ALL AND LET GOD SORT THEM OUT . I WILL NOT SEEK TO DO HARM BUT IF IT'S BROUGHT TO ME I WILL DO WHAT IS NESSERY .

IN SUCH A SITUATION THEY IS NO ROOM FOR SECOND THOUGHT I UNDERSTAND THERE WILL BE GOOD FOLKS MIXED IN WITH THE BAD BUT THERE WILL BE NO TIME TO FIND OUT WHO'S WHO. IF THE GOOD FOLKS SIDE WITH THE BAD THEY HAVE MADE THE WRONG CHOICE . I DO NOT SEEK CONFLICT OR WISH ANY PERSON HARM. MOST PEOPLE HAVE LIVED A SHELTERED LIFE AND ARE UNWILLING TO DO WHAT MUST BE DONE . PEACE AND FREEDOM WERE BOUGHT AT A HIGH PRICE AND WE FORGET THAT PRICE. THE FOUNDING FATHERS KNEW THIS FOR THEY PAID THE PRICE . WHAT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND IS THIS . WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU FIRE AN EMPLOYEE AND HE WONT LEAVE YOU CALL SECURITY. NOW WHEN YOU FIRE A GOVERNMENT (WITH YOUR VOTE) AND THEY WONT LEAVE OR ARE BREAKING THE LAW (CONSTITUTION) WHO DO YOU CALL ? THERE IS NO ONE TO CALL SO TO THROUGH OFF THE CHAINS OF OPPRESSION ONE MUST TAKE MATTERS INTO THERE OWN HANDS . THE FOUNDING FATHERS WERE CLEAR ON THIS YOU MUST LOOK AT THE WRITINGS OF WASHINGTON , FRANKLIN ,JEFFERSON AND MANY OTHERS.

WE HAVE GROWN UP IN A DISTORTED SYSTEM WE HAVE BENT TO THE WHIMS OF SMALL GROUPS OF PROGRESSIVES OVER THE LAST 90 YEARS SO THEY WILL SHUT THE FLUB UP . WE CALL IT BIPARTISAN BULL CRAP THEY HAVE HIJACKED AMERICA OVER STEPED THERE BOUNDS AND PISSED ALL OVER EVERY ONE WHO HAS DISAGREED WITH THERE B.S. . SO MOST WILL SIT AND COWER AFRAID TO SPEAK THERE MIND FOR IT WOULD DESTROY THEIR LITTLE HAPPY PLACE OR FORCE THEM TO STEP OUT SIDE THERE SAFE ZONE BOX.

Photos from the Kansas City Tea Party at Memorial Park.

About 5,000 attended, as you can see by the photos. The microphone was having a bit of an issue but the speakers were excellent. Kris Kobach was the keynote speaker, his message was exciting, to the point and well-received.

People were peaceful, cheered when the speakers touched their hearts and were pumped that not only were there others who felt as they did, but they came out to stand together.

HAPPY EASTER

HAPPY EASTER

WERE ARE YOU ?

SIMPLE QUESTION WERE ARE YOU? HAVE YOU DONE ANY SELF REFLECTION ? NO I'M NOT REFERING TO LONG HOURS OF MEDATATION WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT IS WERE ARE YOU IN ? LIFE , LOVE , PREPS ,FRIENDSHIP. ITS PART OF BEING A COMPLETE PERSON . AS PREPPERS WE FORGET TO LIVE LIFE WE GET WRAPED UP IN PREPPING . BAD NEWS , CURRENT EVENTS FASISM AND SO FORTH
WE LET THE STRESS COMPOUND AND RULE OUR LIVES SO WERE ARE YOU?

WHY MASS MURDERS HAPPEN

THIS SIGN SAYS IT ALL. VICTIM'S HERE NO ONE WILL RESIST! WE HAVE BECOME A SOCITY OF VICTIMS TRAINED LIKE PAVLOV'S DOG'S TO SIT AND OBEY.

ANDS WHEN OUR MALE CHILDREN FAIL TO SIT AND ACT LIKE GIRLS THEY STUFF THEM WITH DRUGS. THEY STUFF OUR CHILDRENS HEADS WITH LEFT WING IDEA'S OF SAME SEX LOVE ,YOU DONT HAVE TO TAKE RESPONABLY FOR YOUR ACTIONS IT WAS SOME ONE ELSES FAULT. TRUST THE POLICE ( THERE ARE SOME GOOD COP'S OUT THERE BUT THEY ARE FAR AND FEW BETWEEN) , THE GOVMENT WILL CARE FOR YOU AND THE ONE THAT PISSES ME OFF MORE THAN ANY THING IS WE DONT KEEP SCORE.

WHAT HAVE WE BECOME WHEN WE THINK OUR CHILDREN DONT KEEP SCORE THEY KNOW WHO WON. WE SEND OUR CHILDREN OUT IN TO THE WORLD TOTALY UNEQUEPT TO HANDLE LIFE.

PREPS THIS WEEK

WELL THE LITTLE WOMAN PICKED UO 31 CHICKENS THIS WEEK FOR FREE.
WE HAD TO ADD ON TO THE COUPE TO FIT THEM ALL . IN A FEW WEEKS SOME WILL BE MOVED TO THE FREEZER.AND IN 6 WEEKS WE WILL ADD MORE . WE HAVE A FRIEND WHO OWN'S A CHICKEN FARM AND WE GET ALL THE BIRDS THE CATCHERS MISS. SO I HAVE A STEADY SUPPLY OF BIRD'S I PLAN ON SELLING SOME SMOKED BIRD'S AND USING THE FUND'S ON MORE PREPS. I WILL BE MAKING CHICKEN CHILE

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

IN TERMS OF SHOOTING PRACTICE DOES MAKE PERFECT . THE AVERAGE PERSON MAY SHOOT 2 TIMES A MONTH AT THERE LOCAL RANGE . THIS IS GREAT IF YOU CAN GET YOUR TARGET TO STAND STILL. IT IS HOW EVER A GOOD WAY TO GET TO KNOW YOUR WEAPON . AS ALL BULLETS PREFORM DIFFERENT YOU CAN ZERO IT IN .AND DEVELOP A GOOD CARD FOR LATER USE . THE CARD SHOULD INCLUDE . WEATHER ,TEMP, WIND SPEED , BULLET WEIGHT, AMMO BRAND, YARDAGE AND SMALL PERSONAL NOTES. BUT IN REAL LIFE THERE ARE MANY SHOOTING STANCES. PRON , SITTING, KNEELING , LAYING ON BACK ,OFF HAND ,UP HILL , DOWN HILL, WEAK SIDE AND SO ON . YOU NEED TO PRACTICE THESE SHOOTS ALSO. SHOOT IN THE RAIN , HIGH WINDS , IN THE MUD, IN THE DIRT, LAYING IN A CREEK AND SO FORTH ADD REAL LIFE CONDITIONS TO YOUR SHOOTING CAN GREATLY IMPROVE YOUR HUNTING SUCCESS BOTH WITH RIFLE AND PISTOL. I UNDERSTAND THESE GUNS ARE EXPENSIVE BUT SUBJECTING THEM TO REAL LIFE CONDITIONS WILL HIGHLIGHT ANY PROBLEMS. SO GO OUT AND HAVE FUN SHOOT MORE

I GOT TO A WIFI SIGHT TONITE SO YES I'M STILL HERE

ESCAPE AND EVASION

WITH THE GROWING CONCERN OF MARTIAL LAW I HAVE LISTED THIS POST. I HAVE INFORMAL MILATRY TRAINING (UNCLE WAS A NAVY AVERITOR) AND 3 YEARS EXPERINCE IN WILDERNESS SURVIVAL NEVER PLACED LESS THAN 3RD. SO I WILL COVER ESCAPE AND EVASION IN THIS POST . WARNING GRAPHIC MATERIAL IS LISTED HERE----NOTE- I WILL USE THE TERM E&E FOR THE TERM ESCAPE AND EVISION.



E&E IS PROVIDED TO OUR SPECIAL FORCES AND PILOTS . BUT NEVER WAS IT EVEN TALKED ABOUT IN PUBLIC CIRCLES. MANY OF YOU WILL INVISION MEN CHASEING YOU THROUGH THE PRETTY WOOD AND YOU SLIP THROUGH UNSCAVED AND HAPPY. BUT IN TRUTH MANY OF YOU LIVE IN CITY'S WERE YOU ARE COMFORTABLE AND SECURE .SO WHEN TALKING ABOUT E&E WE MUST INCLUDE BOTH SUBUBAN AND URBAN PRACTICE'S. I HAVE INCLUDED HOW TO BECOME INVISABLE IN PLAIN SIGHT. SO FIRST WE WILL COVER SUBURBAN E&E--



THIS IS BOTH THE EASYEST AND HARDEST TO PREFECT . THERE IS A FINE BALLANCE OF BOTH COURAGE AND LUCK .NEVER TAKE ETHER FOR GRANTED NEVER LET DOWN YOUR GAURD. COFFEE WITH HERMIT SAID IT BEST WHEN HE SAID ( LOOK NEATHER LIKE PREDATOR OR PREY ) THIS IS ALSO NEVER LOOK LIKE YOUR OUT OF PLACE. IE; A THREE PEICE SUIT WOULD BE OUT OF PLACE IN THE SOUP KITCHEN LINE. YOU WANT TO GO UNNOTICED AND TODO SO YOU WANT TO BE SEEN BUT NOT REMEMBERD NOT WORTH A SECOND THOUGHT. THIS BRINGS IN TO HUMAN NATURE JUST SOME THING ELCE TO KNOW . IT'S HUMAN NATURE TO REMBER SOMEONE WHO HAS MADE EYE CONTACT . IT'S HUMAN NATURE TO REMEMBER SOMETHING OUT OF PLACE IF NOT IMMIDITLY LATE ON IN THE DAY. THE SAFEST WAY TO HIDE IN A SUBUBAN ENVIROMENT IS IN PLAIN SIGHT. YOU CAN GO UNNOTICED BY FOLLOWING A FEW SIMPLE RULE'S--

• AVOID PEOPLE YOU KNOW


• DRESS CLEAN AND NEAT(WHEN IN THE PUBLIC PLACES)


• AVOID PLACES YOU WOULD NORMALY HANG OUT(NOT JUST PLACES YOU WOULD NORMALY GO BUT PLACES JUST LIKE IT)


• AVOID UNDER OR OVER DRESSING


• THE MORE PEOPLE THE BETTER


• DON'T DRY UNDUE ATTION TO YOURSELF


• DONT CARRY LARGE BAG'S(SMALL OR MED DAYPACK IS OK)


• A COLLAGE TOWN IS BEST


• DONT DRINK (BOOZE DRAWS ATTION AND DULES THE SENCES)


• IF THE CITY HAS A LARGE HOMELESS POPULATION BECOME PART OF IT(THEY ARE GENRALY ANTI GOVERMENT AND ANTI LAW )


• WHILE IN ROME DO AS THE ROMINS DUE


• TELL NO ONE YOUR REAL NAME


• MAKE MONEY AS A DAY LABOR


• DO ALL YOU HAVE TO DO DURING DAY LIGHT HOURS( BEING OUT AT NITE DRAWS ATTION FROM THE LOCAL BUSYBODY'S AND LAWENFORCEMENT

THE ABOVE IS JUST AN OUT LINE YOU ARE REQUIRED TO USE YOUR OWN COMMON SENCE.HIDE YOUR LONG GUNS KEEP ONLY A SMALL PISTOL AND GOOD FIXED BLADE KNIFE. IF BY CHANCE YOU HAVE TO USE FORCE DO NOT MOVE THE BODY GET OUT OF SIGHT AND TOWN. JUST WALK AWAY STAY ON THE FRINGE OF SOCITY AND IN THE BACKS OF PEOPLES MINDS.REMEMBER THE KEY IS TO BE SEEN BUT NOT SEEN OR REMEMBERD.

I WILL NOW COVER THE HARDER PART OF E&E URBAN OR WILDERNESS . THERE ARE SO MANY VARRIBLES IN THIS FORM OF E&E THERE IS NO FAST HARD PLANS YOU CAN FORM.THE BIGGEST VARRIBLE IS STAY ANIMALS AND DISPLACED PEOPLE THERE ARE SOMANY THINGS THAT CAN GIVE YOU AWAY. SO TO REDUCE THE RISK THERE IS ONE RULE . IF YOU BREAK THIS RULE YOU WILL BE CAUGHT PERIOD.

THE NUMBER ONE RULE IS TWO PART'S PART ONE IS MOVE SLOW PART TWO IS NEVER EVER PANIC IF YOU BREAK THIS RULE YOUR DONE. YOU MUST BE FLEXABLE IN BOTH MINDSET AND PLANNING. I KNOW SOME OF YOU THINK I'M PREACHY BUT I CAN'T HELP WHO I AM. I JUST WANT YOU TO SURVIVE. SO IF YOU ARE OFFENDED GET CAUGHT. SO ON WE GO.

• NEVER RUN (JUST MAKES YOU TIRED AND EASEYER TO SPOT)
• STAY TO COVER( FENCE LINES ARE OK BUT STAY OUT OF OPEN FEILDS AND PFF RIDGE LINES)
• AVOID BRITE CLOTHING
• START LATE STOP EARLY (8AM-3PM OTHER TIMES ARE WHEN THEY EXPECT YOU TO MOVE UNLESS YOU MUST CROSS AN OPEN FIELD DO IT AFTER DARK WITH NO MOONLITE)
• MAKE A COLD CAMP ( COLD CAMP IS WERE YOU EAT EARLY THEN MOVE A COUPLE MILES AND BED DOWN)
• KEEP HYDEEATED
• IF THEY ARE CLOSEING IN ON YOU STOP AND HUNKER DOWN(THE HUMAN EYE IS DRAWN TO MOVEMENT IF YOU HOLD STILL THEY WILL PROBLY WALK RIGHT BY YOU)
• WITH THE ADVENT OF FLER YOU HEAT SIGNURE NEEDS TO BE AT A MIN (PLACE A SPACE BLANKET BETWEEN YOU PONCHO ANS LINER)
• AVOID PEOPLE
• AVOID DOMESTIC ANIMALS
• KILL FARM ANIMALS ONLY AS LAST RESORT(FARMER MIGHT REPORT IT)
• LEARN HOW TO LEAVE A ZERO ECO FOOT PRINT( ONE STRAY GUM WRAPPER CAN GET YOU CAUGHT.ONE UNCOVERD FIRE PIT BUSTED)
• BURRY ALL HUMAN WASTE
• A MIXTURE OF BLACK AND CYANNE PEPPER SPRINKELD ON YOU TRAIL WILL DESTROY A TRACKING DOG'S NOSE (DIBI'S/SHEPERD'S AND ROT'S ARE ALL SIGHT TRACKER'S
• IF ATTICED BY A DOG NO NOT RUN STAND YOUR GROUND!!!! AS THE DOG ATTACKS STICK YOUR HAND DOWN IT'S THROUT AND GRAB IT'S TOUNG AT THE BACK OF MOUTH(HE CAN'T BITE OR BARK INSERT YOUR KNIFE IN TO IT'S EYE OR CUT IT'S NECK.
• DONT GIVE UP THERE'S ALWAY'S A CHANCE
• IN THE EVENT YOU ARE CAUGHT DO NOT SURRENDER IF THEY HAVE PURSUED YOU MORE THAN TWO DAY'S YOUR NUMBER IS UP.(THE ROAD TO HELL IS LONG AND IT'S BEST TO HAVE A TRAVEL BUDDY.
• THE LAST LINE IS JUST WHAT I WOULD DO . I WAS NOT MADE FOR A PRISON CAMP OR BEATINGS I WILL NOT GO PEACFULY . SO IT'S UP TO YOU IF THEY PUSUED YOU FOR DAY'S YOUR NUMBER IS UP ANY HOW WHY MAKE IT EASY FOR THE SWINE.IN THE END IT'S YOU AND GOD I CAN NOT MAKE A CHOISE FOR YOU

I'M SORRY I COULD NOTE MAKE IT ROSES AND SUNSHINE BUT IF IT COMES TO THE POINT WERE YOU NEED WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN ALL BET'S ARE OFF.E&E IS A GAME OF CAT AND MOUSE AND SOMETIMES THE CAT WIN'S----MADDOG---

RIMFIRE OR CENTERFIRE

JOEL THE K ASKED WHAT IS THE DIFFRENCE BETWEEN THE TWO SO IN RESPONSE I THOUGHT I WOULD MAKE A GOOD POST . SO JOEL HERE YOU ARE.

THE DIFFRENCE IS THAT IN A RIMFIRE ROUND THE FIREING PIN STRIKES THE EDGE OR RIM OF THE CASE . AS WERE THE CENTERFIRE STRIKES THE PRIMER IN THE CENTER . IN OTHER WORD BOTH ROUNDS HAVE A PRIMER JUST IN DIFFRENT LOCATIONS . PRIMERS ARE WHAT INGITE THE POWDER IN THE CASE . HERE IS WHAT THE PRIMER CONTAINES . THE FIRST PRIMER WERE MADE OF MERCERY FULMINATE AND WAS USED IN BLACK POWDER MUSKETS BUT MADE BRASS CASES BRITTLE.THEY REPLACED THAT WITH POTASSIOM CHLORATE VERY DIRTY AND CORROSIVE. THEN SOME TIME AROUND THE 30'S-40'S THEY CAME UP WITH LEAD STYPHNATE AND IT'S STILL IN USE TO DAY IN ONE FORM OR ANOTHER IT'S VERY UNIVERSAL.

NOW THE CASE IS WHAT SET'S THE TWO APART IN THE .22LR YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THERE IS NO PRIMER POCKET .THE WHOLE RIM OF THE CASE IS THE PRIMER . (RIMFIRE CASES ARE NONRELOADABLE) YOU WILL ALSO NOTICE ON A SAY 38 SPECAL ROUND THAT IN THE CENTER OF THE BACK OF THE CASE THERE IS A PRIMER . YOU CAN SEE WERE THE PRIMER IS SEPREAT FROM THE CASE. THESE ROUNDS ARE GENRALY RELOADABLE.

THERE ARE TWO DIFFRENT CASE TYPE'S RIMED AND RIMLESS THE EASYEST WAY I CAN EXPLAINE IT IS TAKE THE .45 ACP IS A RIMLESS CASE AND A CENTERFIRE ROUND AND THE .45LC IS A RIMED CASE ALSO CENTER FIRE. IN TO DAYS MORDERN FIREARMS ALL BUT A FEW ARE CENTERFIRE EXCEPT ANY GUN CHAMBERD FOR THE .22SHORT .22LONG .22 LONGRIFLE . THE ARE SOME OLD RIMFIRE GUNS OUTTHERE BUT WERE MOSTLY PRE1900.


I HOPE THIS WAS A HELP TO YOU IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS I'L BE MORE THEN HAPPY TO ANSWER.--AS ALWAYS KEEP YOUR POWDER DRY--MADDOG--

THE SCOUT RIFLE AND USE

YES THAT IS A 1916 SPANISH MAUSER CHAMBERD IN 308 WINCHESTER. AND YES IT'S A SCOUT RIFLE. I DID NOT LIKE IT . THERE WERE A FEW DRAW BACKS AND ONE WAS AMMO . IT WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR THE MORDERN 308 ROUND. PSI'S WERE TO HIGH FOR ANY THING OTHER THAN HAND LOADS THE OTHER WAS IT'S A SMALL RING MAUSER NO OPTIC CHOICES SO I TRADED IT FOR A MORE SUITABLE RIFLE . THE SAVAGE MODEL 340B CHAMBERD IN 30-30 WINCHESTER CAME WITH 3 MAG'S AND SCOPE MOUNT. THE SAVAGE CAN BE SHOT WITH THE SCOPED REMOVED OR REPLACED AND BE

BACK ON ZERO IT FULFILLS EVERY ASPECT OF A SCOUT RIFLE . LIGHT WEIGHT ABOUT A POUND AND A HALF LIGHTER THAN THE MAUSER AND TWO INCHES SHORTER . AMMO IS READLY AVALABLE FROM ANY STORE . 150 YARD RANGE IS ALSO IN THE RANGE OF A SCOUT RIFLE THE 30-30 CAN BE RELOADED WITH BLACK POWDER AND STILL MAINTAIN IT'S RANGE . WITH 147 SPITZER BOATTAIL'S IT'S RANGE IS AROUND 250 YARDS . YES I CAN SHOOT SPITZER'S DUE TO THE REMOVABLE BOX MAG . IT RELOADS FASTER THAN THE MAUSER AND IS A JOY TO SHOOT. I HAVE SHOT BIRDSHOT THROUGH THIS GUN WITH NO ILL EFFECTS. NOTICE SLING AND I HAVE THE SCOPE REMOVED IN THIS PHOTO (TWO THUMB SCREWS AND ITS OFF WERE AS WITH THE MAUSER I MUST REMOVE THE FRONT SIGHT. A SCOUT RIFLE MUST BE FLEXABLE TO BE OF ANY USE. SO WE WILL DISPOSE OF THE MYTH THAT THE SCOPE MUST BE MOUNTED UP FRONT AND IT MUST SHOOT 1000 YARD'S . MOST CONTACT WITH A SCOUT RIFLE WILL BE AT LESS THAN 150 YARDS. AS SUCH THERE IS NO REASON A LEVER ACTION RIFLE IN 30-30 ,357 , 44 MAG WONT PREFORM IN THIS JOB . YOU WILL WANT TO BE COMFORTABLE WITH WHAT EVER WEAPON YOU HAVE AND LIKE MOST ALL OF YOU ARE LIMITED ON FUND'S ALSO THERE IS A SORTAGE OF 308 AMMO WERE AS 30-30 AMMO IS CHEAP STILL . SO KEEP PREPING --MADDOG--( I KNOW LAM POST))

SURVIVOR TEST

DIDNT NEED NO TEST TO TELL ME THAT .

MY BAD/ PREPS

I THINK I WAS A LITTLE HARSH ON A COMMENT I LEFT . THE WOMEN WAS SADDLED WITH A NONBELIVER AND MIGHT BE FRENCH. I WAS HARSH IN THE FACT I TOLD HER TO CURB THE FROG. I HAVE NO USE FOR ANY THING FRENCH THEY ARE THE TRAILER TRASH OF THE WORLD AND SURENDER TO ANY BODY WHO SHOW'S BACK BONE .THEY WILL SOON BE RUN BY SHREIA LAW . SORRY IT GET'S MY BLOOD UP.

ON THE LINE OF PREPS I WILL REVISITE URBAN TRAPPING . I KNOW THAT THIS IS A SUBJECT MANY ARE NOT COMFORTABLE FOR MANY THAT LIVE IN A CITY OR FOR THAT FACT MANY AMERICAN'S. URBAN TRAPING IS A TERM I USE FOR CATCHING DOMESTIC ANIMAL'S THAT HAVE BEEN DISCARDED BY THERE OWNER'S FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER. THE FIRST PART TO OVERCOME IS STATE OF MIND. THIS WILL BE THE HARDEST OF WHAT YOU MUST DO. WE AS AMERICANS DO NOT SEE CAT'S OR DOG'S AS FOOD WERE ANY MANY COUNTRY'S THERE ARE NO SUCH IDEA'S. I WILL TRY TO HELP YOU PAST THIS POINT .

YOU ARE IN SURVIVAL MODE YOU ARE OUT OF FOOD YOUR NEIBORS ARE STARVING . THE KID'S ARE CRYING FROM HUNGER PAINS DO YOU SIT THERE AND DIE YOU HAVE SURVIVED THE HORD LONG THE SUMMER PAST .YOU MADE IT TO WINTER ONLY 30 DAYS TILL IT WILL BE WARM ENOUGH TO LEAVE AND HEAD FOR THE COUNTRY TO YOUR SISTERS FARM. YOU HAVE EXCAPED THE RAPE GANGS,HEAD BASHERS , DRUG DEALERS YOU HAVE ENOUGH FOOD FOR 10 DAYS IF YOU SKIMP AND THEN YOU HAVE A 2 WEEK HIKE TO YOUR SISTER'S.SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO JUST LYE DOWN AND DIE GIVE UP BECOUSE YOU ARE A LITTLE SQUMISH OF EATING FLUFFY. NO YOU ARE NOT YOU ARE A SURVIVOR YOU HAVE SURVIVED THE WORST .

MANY NATIONS EAT CAT'S AND DOG'S I HAVE EATED DOG IT'S A STATE OF MIND .I HAD DOG DOWN IN MEXICO WAS PRETTY GOOD AT FIRST I WAS RELUCTENT BUT KEPT AN OPEN MIND AND WAS SURPRIZED THAT IT WAS GOOD . GETTING PAST THE STIGMA IS THE FIRST STEP. YOU CAN NOT BYPASS A GOOD SORCE OF FOOD BECOUSE IT'S UNAMERICN
