Merry Christmas to all and to all that fight the good fight!!!!

Preppers’ PING!!

[Southack]

Funny!

[Hugin]

Very nice!

“nine cans of ammo” sounds a bit better though. And it’s more ammo. ;~)

[Old Sarge]

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM

[Kartographer]

Not if they are wooden ammo ‘boxes’. ;-)

For a true prepper there aren’t 12 days left before Armageddon. Otherwise, why prep?

[Kartographer]

To you and yours Sarge! Merry Christmas!!!

"For a true prepper there aren’t 12 days left before Armageddon. Otherwise, why prep?"

Go to Walmart tomorrow which will be three days before Christmas now multiple that by a factor of 100, because that's what Walmart will look like 12 days before Armageddon!

On the last day of Christmas, my true love gave to me
Free lectriciteeeee!!!!

(Well, I can wish, can’t I?)

;-)

[Revolting cat!]

So we’ll know ahead of time? How with Harold Camping camping six feet under now? And if so, then why prep?

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Can I switch the pear tree for an apple?

[Kartographer]

I prep even for that. I have a couple body bags handy. As far as knowing ahead of time maybe maybe not, but paying attention, having a network and goo situational awareness can do wonders. There is also often a small window of time after the SHTF in which those who soonest come to grips with what has happen have a opportunity and where those that don’t become statistics.

"Can I switch the pear tree for an apple?"

I was trying to be traditional. ;-)

But I would say its between you and your true love.

[Focault's Pendulum]

Merry Christmas Kart, and a Very Survivable Armageddon!

You need to destroy the evidence of you destroying the evidence.

[backwoods-engineer]

Nice! I like it! Merry Christmas to Kartographer and all our preppers and survivalists on FR!

10 cords of wood ? Oh the thought of it just gave ME wood.

In my town my neighbors have upwards of an acre on each property of seasoned wood. I’m so jealous. It’ll take me years to get to their level.

But you betcha - when Sandy hit ? We all had a better week than the week before. We still manage snow and debris together a year later.

[Kartographer]

That's where these come in handy:

On the seventh day of Christmas my true love gave to me; Seven swine a grunting,

[Marcella]

You never know when an emergency will start - it started for me this past week on Wednesday and I'm not leaving my house until H1N1 swine flu finishes killing people as I can't take the flu shot. One strain in the vaccine this year is H1N1.

The hospital had eight very sick people and four died - the other four are still very sick in the hospital. Two died of H1N1 and their kidneys stopped functioning which appears to happen if you have H1N1. Since Wednesday, a man in Tarrant County (Fort Worth is in Tarrant County), has died of H1N1 and his kidneys stopped functioning.

Today I made 16 bean soup Cajun style, and baked a blackberry cobbler. I don't know when it will be safe for me to venture outside to the grocery store but it doesn't matter - I can stay in this house many months if I have to and still have food.

H1N1 is going to be over Texas and it only takes one sick person going to another state to move it there. If you can take the flu shot, you should do it.
