building the bunker

recently, things proved to different and i set forth plans for a bunker to replace the storm shelter i built. the funds, i do things when i have the time and the cash . the existing bunker is too small for me and all my gear to be comfortable in. a backhoe, a few bags of concrete and
wooden forms and plastic and logs specially cut into thirty foot lengths will make a bigger and more livable shelter.
i had to rent a backhoe and dig the hole out myself..i lined it with plastic, 7 mill as a vapor barrier and put in the piping for the ventilation system . next i'll put down wire mesh and rebar for the poured floor once i get the support posts into place . all this is done in dry weather to minimize moisture...more later

the truth about herman caine

the truth... the truth is no one wants to see the bigger scary picture
Obama promised change. well we got it. socialism, worse than communism
now im certain the world won't judge him too harshly. he is only doing what hitler did to germany in the late 1930s . it doesnt matter that he lied to us. because all politicians lie to us
and we expect it. thats why i support herman caine for president. he's an honest man. He doesnt get swayed by the populist polls to figure out where he stands. he knows where he
stands and i respect a man that speaks from his heart and his head .
a lot of folks don't know a lot about herman caine. He is a man, a black american man
and hes a father a radio personality, a former senator and an honest to goodness american
business man, with proven skills as a professional business leader. look him up on the web.
you might like what you see. i do..he gets my vote

see where he stands on the real issues. support him bye

okay folks. things are happening all around the world. people are dissatisfied with the status quo and they are revolting in the streets against the dictators and mad men who lead them.
to this i say bravo. revolution is good for ones soul, especially in moslem countries or corrupt
countries. The gaddaffis and kings and strongmen need to realize you are not scared anymore
and take to the streets , arm yourselves. there are more of you than there are of them. take back your country friends .. hey wait a minute.. i think we need a little of that here too. bust the unions, take away their bargaining rights. workers have the right to show up , work and get a
paycheck. lazy bunch of bums. no wonder the country is in financial hot water.

survival cache . com is a good website to look at. it gives you links for all survival gear, everything you need to know is there .

you can spend hundreds of dollars on survival gear. it's expensive ... but you can spend less
and learn how to survive by using your brain. that is priceless. kids need to start out early
Boyscouts is a good start. especially if the scoutmasters are former military. i was lucky. My scoutmasters were officers and dedicated to survival . i learned a lot. and put the lessons to good use. the basics are important. first aid. food gathering, water, hunting skills, archery,
rifles and ropes . compass reading orienteering all basic essentials. take the time to learn. its hard to learn on the run..

survival shotguns... i have two, a twelve gauge and a 410. i have a shrew tomahawk
and a few heavy duty knives . and i know how and when to use them...
bug out bags differ from person to person depending on what a person wants or needs.
choose wisely...that is all i can say. .. keep your ammo dry and your spirits up. the road is long and hard, but you'll make it if you try

my tomahawk, made by shrew is an valuable tool . i can cut meat with it, chop wood with it
and use it to defend myself. my brain is a powerful tool as well. with it i can covey messages, write tidbits that stimulate and cause people to give action.

my black powder rifle is a tool. it provides me with food for my table over the long winter months. Deer, rabbits, squirrels, possums, beaver, and game birds just to name a few items.
i also have a shotgun, or two..makes life interesting...

ive embarked on two projects, building a bow and building a boat. the bow is more time consuming. the boat floats and gets me from point a to b with a paddle or my electric motor.
