      Sit-rep in your area?

      In another 50 years when they get old enough perhaps. I'm waiting for someone to do the "ok boomer" to me so I can start on about how much better the original Battlestar Galactica was than the redo. - may even cue up the old scratchy music on my smartphone when I start going all "Back in MY day"...

      Sam's Club Prepping

      Keep in mind I live in Southern Indiana and just work in Louisville. Used to have a Sams Club membership, But dropped them and got a Costco membership when the one on Bardstown Rd in Louisville opened up. Did it for two reasons, neither because of bulk shopping. 1. The Bardstown Rd. Costco is...

      Sharps in GHB

      So, your use case here is have a fresh needle handy in case you run across a diabetic with their own insulin and in need of an injection, but no way to inject it? I would personally treat this like carrying a baseball bat in the car. Be sure to have a glove and ball with it in case there are...

      Freezer Burn

      You would have to pry my guns from my cold dead freezer. Because they would get frost covered and frozen in place like everything else does in there. I personally wouldn't consider doing that. My kitchen and garage deep freezer aren't the most convenient go to places for home protection. You...

      Folding money

      Folding money on hand? At a minimum, I keep enough cash handy to fill the vehicle's fuel tank up twice. Started doing that years ago after one evening of dealing with an unpaid full tank of gas and a turned off debit/credit card. The short back story is there was a bank error for me and a...

      Quiz three.

      I'm a fan of the 1634 book series and the "Back To The Future" movies. So I will take a stab at this. I hoard digital knowledge. It scratches the itch to "collect" stuff and does not take up much space. This collection includes: * The entire Survivor Library as of earlier this year when I last...

      Left Hand Shooters Post # 1

      One more left hand / left eye dominant shooter.I suspect I would be doing everything left handed if it hadn't been for all that forced "Use your right hand" as a child back in the 70's Handguns I can shoot equally well with either hand (not well, equally well). Though I have to think about it...

      Pulled over by ISP

      Did have one encounter with Kentucky State Police while carrying. Had a tire blow on I71 heading to Louisville while hauling a trailer full of "gently used" kitchen cabinets for my buddies kitchen remodel. I think it was someplace in the Lagrange area. We pulled off to the side to change the...

      Salesforce banning it's customers using their software from selling guns

      Salesforce is just the latest one. Shopify did the same thing last year.

      Burner Phones

      Yep. Can 2nd this. For years I would buy ATT go phones and just flip my sim card to the next one when things happened. Cannot do that now with my so called 'smart phone'. But I do keep a $20 unopened go phone in the truck. Figure I can charge it off the truck / solar panel worst case. I have my...

      UPS Power Supply - Stay Online in an outage

      During the 2008 ice storm I hooked a 140w inverter to my Ford Explorer battery via the cigarette lighter. It gave me enough juice to do the following. A. LED light bulb, cable modem, laptop. OR B. Run my Cpap machine (original purpose) I parked it in the garage, extension cord into house, ran...

      Weekend At A 'Survival/Prepper' *Gun Show*...

      You forgot the tactical T-shirt and velcro patch vendors. My personal favorite find was the tactical spork. Almost fell over laughing at the booth once I got a good look at it. Didn't ingratiate myself with the guy behind the counter by any means, but who cares. It was a flimsy ka-bar knock...

      Ferdinand Gun Show January 27 & 28

      Thanks for the info. That's only about an hour from home and on the right side of the Ohio river.

      Generator exhaust

      I will admit to a bit of redneck engineering. I was using my Ford Explorer as a generator during a power outage (back in 08). Parked it in the garage. Took the hose off my shop vac. Put it on the exhaust pipe and out the bottom of the garage door. Not the safest thing. But I lived. And the shop...

      What does everyone think about the Louisville bridge tolls?

      I live in Southern Indiana and work across the river in Louisville. Here's what I have seen. Morning - I take 64e across the Sherman Minton to work. Bit of an increase in traffic from before. Mostly more semi tractor trailers. Afternoon - 64w traffic has gotten a lot heavier from downtown...
