New England Survivalist: June 2009
http://newenglandsurvival.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Getting ready for the Zombiepocalypse. Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Not Really Worth It. Continuing in my reviews of post-apocalyptic novels, we come to a modern one, Cormac McCarthy's The Road. To me, the book goes so far to paint a bleak picture that it goes too far, and at points descends into self-parody. I remember asking myself, "When are we going to get a baby roasted on a spit? I provide a product link, but really can't recommend it. Monday, June 22, 2009. In the survivalist canon. 1 Bought 7 Silver C...

New England Survivalist: November 2009
http://newenglandsurvival.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Getting ready for the Zombiepocalypse. Sunday, November 1, 2009. The Silver Hoard Grows. I'm continuing to add silver to my hoard. I've read a number of articles and am convinced that silver prices will rise. It's a cheaper investment than gold, which to my mind has become so valuable that it might not be useful as a commodity with which to barter - who would part with a Krugerrand for a loaf of bread when a Morgan Silver Dollar might accomplish the same thing? Fishing Capstone - October 31. Any skill yo...

New England Survivalist: July 2009
http://newenglandsurvival.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Getting ready for the Zombiepocalypse. Friday, July 31, 2009. A good week for prepping. So in thinking through the scenarios, it occurred to me that a bug-out bag in the car would be pretty high on the list. I opted for a light, inexpensive backpack, a Jansport Access 40. It is a decent size and price, has pretty good support, and seems pretty well made. I have a few basics in it, but this list is by no means complete. It currently contains:. Two emergency reflective blankets. A half dozen bungee cords.

New England Survivalist: August 2009
http://newenglandsurvival.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Getting ready for the Zombiepocalypse. Monday, August 31, 2009. Video Of Me Doing Prep. Kidding, of course. But awesome, nonetheless. This is EXACTLY how I picture the post-apocalypse to be. Sunday, August 30, 2009. I have had for some time a hunting rifle on order, chambered in .308 Winchester. It is a custom job, left handed because I am left handed. It has been almost 90 days since it was ordered, and I am getting antsy. Sunday, August 23, 2009. Also added to my silver hoard, and now have 43 oz. I...

New England Survivalist: December 2009
http://newenglandsurvival.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Getting ready for the Zombiepocalypse. Sunday, December 6, 2009. I am in the process of redoing the operating system on my main computer (I have a Windows environment loaded, and am downloading Kubuntu via Wubi) and it is a bear of a process. It occurs to me, that post-collapse, this process would be infinitely harder, as there are no online utilities for downloading patches, fixes, upgrades in a post-collapse world. Not to mention the bigger problem of electricity. What does this mean? From a theoretica...

New England Survivalist: September 2009
http://newenglandsurvival.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Getting ready for the Zombiepocalypse. Monday, September 28, 2009. Actually, I went fishing on Saturday. As with shooting, I am trying to quickly improve my skills in a number of key areas, and one of the important ones is fishing. I hadn't been fishing on a lake since 1991, on a week-long trip where I literally caught nothing. But I bought myself an inexpensive reel (a Zebco 33 at Wal-Mart) and was determined to try out a few of the local ponds. Saturday, September 19, 2009. Bought Some of These. 1 Reor...

New England Survivalist: More Shooting and Fishing
http://newenglandsurvival.blogspot.com/2009/10/more-shooting-and-fishing.html
Getting ready for the Zombiepocalypse. Sunday, October 4, 2009. More Shooting and Fishing. It rained Saturday, so my plans to shoot one day and fish the next got compressed. I did both today, with mixed results. Shooting went well. I moved my zero out to 50 yards on the rifle. At 100 yards I began to see the problems creep in - a slight sight adjustment and I was back on target. I'm now confident on putting shots on target at 100; next time out we'll start from there and see how we do.

Off Grid On The Cheap: March 2009
http://offgridonthecheap.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 30, 2009. I am very proud of you Josh! Be safe in Iraq, come home soon. :). Hi April, I love all of you very much! This is a pre-grand opening message, I've worked on this blog for the last couple of days trying to get things set up the way I want it to be. I'm pretty satisfied with the layout and look, the colors look great, the picture at the top is an actual picture from my property, the sky looked spectacular and I was able to capture it on (digital) film.
