We are on the edge. Everyday there is a new story about the Yutes who grow more restless everyday and when you add the fact that because of the economy people are already on edge it wont take much to set things off.
Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Siege of AR-558 (#7.8) (1998)
Quark: Let me tell you something about Hew-mons, Nephew. Theyre a wonderful, friendly people, as long as their bellies are full and their holosuites are working. But take away their creature comforts, deprive them of food, sleep, sonic showers, put their lives in jeopardy over an extended period of time and those same friendly, intelligent, wonderful people... will become as nasty and as violent as the most bloodthirsty Klingon. You dont believe me? Look at those faces. Look in their eyes.
Today we have yutes who roam our streets who are with out morals, without respect for law or life itself. They will look are you with the same doll eyes a shark does before he eats you and they will feel no more compassion than the shark does.
That will be the test of many. Most preppers I know are Christian people and they will hesitate to do what they might have to do to stop the yutes. On the other hand the yutes wont think twice nor lose a minute of sleep, in fact they will smile and laugh about it.
For those who are just starting or are old hands at prepping you may find my Preparedness Manual helpfull. You can download it at:
http://www.tomeaker.com/kart/preparedness1i.pdf
For those of you who havent started already its time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, a extra couple changes of oil and filters for your car, tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.
As the LDS say When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.
Or as the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
NIV Proverbs 22:3
Lastly this for the doubters and the scoffers.
There is no greater disaster than to underestimate danger.
Underestimation can be fatal.
Awesome list ping
Thanks.
Thanks!
Or TP.
I gotta deal with grumpy old ladies in my neighborhood. You have to have plenty of both to survive. ;)

You’re smart enough to buy ME a life’s supply of chocolate! And tp for you!
Wait. You read ALL of those books already??
Well what did I do wrong this time?
LOL!!!
Because, sometimes, the basics are important.
Thank you for your efforts. Sorry to be an ass the other night.

If you look at my manual as it is arranged in that way. And the Rule of Three is explained in an article one page 24.
You read ALL of those books already??
And yes, after years on the old misc.survival newsnet thread (before the web), I could probably write them in my sleep.
I do know my survival skills, and have a certain flair when I show them off.
As I do daily, because I have to survive today, too. ;)
/johnny
The grannys in your area make YOU buy them all that???
I’m more low maintenance. :)

And know the details about the thunderstorms, since I'm a licensed radio operator.
It's part of the reason I remain single. I couldn't stand having one in the house. Would probably complain about the wires draped across the floor.
