Today is the birthday of Carlos Hathcock (Born 1942, died February 23, 1999.) He was a United States Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant sniper with a service record of 93 confirmed kills. This is also the birthday of my lifelong friend, Brad C. I miss seeing you, pal.
Some time ago, I did a review on SurvivalBlog about the Ruger 10/22 Takedown (TD) .22 LR rifle. I fell in love with my sample. I liked the idea of a .22 LR rifle, that could easily be taken apart, and put back together in a few seconds. I also liked the case that Ruger ships the rifle in – very nice, and you can carry the 10/22 Takedown rifle, with a brick or two of .22 LR ammo, half a dozen magazines, a scope and some clothes for the weekend. Not a bad combination, and whenever I travel more …
Sir: As a retired corn farmer, I find it quite interesting that the Fed’s USDA is still keeping to it’s hard-and-fast immutable “projections” of 97.3 million acres of corn being planted this year. Just like building a house, call the Fed’s number the “planned” or projected blueprint idea. But now let’s look at the “as built” story. Here, where the “rubber meets the road,” or I should say “where the planter tucks in the actual corn seed,’ the “actual” or real situation is quite another story due to very late corn plantings, if at all. The surprise is that the …
Hi Jim, The reader who contributed the food saver storage bag post gave a lot of great ideas. I would like to add my experience with Food Saver and how I solved some serious problems with the vacuum system itself. Nine years ago I started a serious food storage program. Life is full of trials and errors, and lots of lessons learned from other’s trials and errors. I made the move into dehydrating foods, primarily beef and vegetables for long term storage. I bought Cabela’s large dehydrator after researching everything out there that I could afford. It has performed marvelously after I …
Chris M.’s Vegetarian Tuscan Kale and White Bean Soup I think that my Mom originally got this recipe from a Pat Robertson/CBN publication. I ate a lot of it without upsetting my blood sugar. And there was enough methane to run a small motorbike. She hit the nail on the head when she said that no matter what you do with these ingredients or similar ones, you won’t go wrong. — Vegetarian Tuscan Kale and White Bean Soup 3 tbsp. olive oil 1 cup diced onion 4 large cloves of garlic, roughly chopped 4 cups vegetable broth 4 cup packed …

“I’ve previously pointed out that there is no longer ‘law’ as such, in the United States any more. Everything about the ‘nation’, which is no longer, properly speaking, even a nation anymore, is fraudulent, from its ‘money’ to its system of ‘justice’. Even something as simple and basic as openly fighting a ‘war’ is now beyond its bloated, cancerous make-believe structure. I wouldn’t call the present system a dictatorship myself. Dictatorships are more open and direct. It is better described as a simulatorship, which is to say, rule by pretense. It is reminiscent of the latter days of the Soviet …
