Source: buckeroo URL Source: http://here@LF.com Published: Feb 26, 2014 Author: buckeroo Post Date: 2014-02-26 22:41:14 by buckeroo Keywords: None Views: 44847 Comments: 95 The country is a mess. The state you live in is a mess. The county you live in is a mess. The city you live in is a mess. But what have you performed to prepare for disaster from any force whether manmade or natural? Have you electrical power? Solar/NaturalGas/Propane/Gasoline Generator(s) to generate electricity for your various needs? Water? Food? Shelter? How about a library whether hardcover/paperback/electronic? What about personal defense? The goal of this thread is to describe your ideas to become self-sufficient within reasonable personal means, independent of the messes that most know pre-exisit in an arbitrary world. Make a comment about what you have performed and/or plan to do. buck Post Comment   Private Reply   Ignore Thread   Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 74. #18. To: buckeroo, Don (#0) Actually Texas is not a mess to respond to disasters. We do it quite often. West TX and Hurricane Rita come to mind as well as Katrina in the Gulf areas. Texas responded well. The locals pull together. When West TX had the fertilizer plant explosion local emergency response was well managed. Hundreds of local churches opened their doors for the homeless, fed hundreds, provided clothing and even work. In the secular Northeast people went dumpster diving for food after Sandy while they waited for the Usurper in chief to bring them FEMA. redleghunter  posted on  2014-03-02   0:50:21 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #24. To: redleghunter, Bucky (#18) Yeah, we have a full fridge and freezer. I think we are ok for natural disasters, which normally have a short duration. If Bucky wants to know about preparations for solar flares or invasion by the elves and the gremlins or an end of the world, about the best he could do for long term survival is buy a couple of boxes of Hershey's Chocolate. What part of "end of the world," that they constantly talk about do they have a problem understanding? If the world ends as many of them predict, do they expect to live on a tiny slice of Mother Earth whizzing through the Galaxy while they are guzzling home brew? It all reminds me of the building of fall-out shelters craze of the Cold War Era. Don  posted on  2014-03-02   11:15:26 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #25.

Do you (as the thread title indicates) have backup electrical power?

Nowhere have I indicated "end of the world" scenarios. In fact, you have consistently poised yourself as a Christian evangelist that believes in some sort of, "end of the world" as Jesus is coming for you and taking you to heaven because of your strident belief system. Why on Earth are you projecting your own ideas on me or anyone that intelligently considers planning for uneventful disasters? I suppose all you require is a cross, a Bible and a prayer in order to prepare. buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-02   11:48:56 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #38. To: buckeroo (#25) Doomsday Preppers are always talking about that scenario and go off into left field looking as though they anticipate living in a Road Warrior movie; of course, we all know you have your feet planted firmly on the ground and you never watch the Preppers shows on the National Geographic channel. That is right, of course, right? Stay on target, Luke! Stay on target! Don  posted on  2014-03-02   19:27:39 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #39.

That is right, of course, right? Donnie ... I havn't watched TV since 1993. So, again, you are wrong. Here, let me help you out: read your Bible and pray to some illusive God while rolling your rosary between your thumb and forefinger. Wh knows ... you might, just might, get closer to the truth. buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-02   19:40:37 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #40. To: buckeroo (#39) Come on, Bucky. You don' need to be ashamed. I won't tell anyone. Rosary? Why shucks, Partner, I don't have one of those things. Don  posted on  2014-03-02   20:34:23 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #41. To: Don (#40) What do you learn based on your many fruitless hours devouring selected topics on TV? How to pray? How to smell nice? How the weather is forecasted when all you have to do is stich your head out the door and treat yourself to the actual environment? Planning is everything. And watching TV is not planning; the act is a vegetising experience for the almost brain-dead; watching National Geographic and catching a glimpse of the latest infomercial is hardly worthy of one's time; this is true of my time. OK ... so you don't run your rosary between your fingers; what other Christian amulet do you use? buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-02   20:44:40 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #42. To: buckeroo (#41) Everything depends on what you are looking forward to. You did say planning. You are a Prepper, aren't you. Don't forget to stock up on some good books.

To: Don (#44) Well, you could try Superman or Superwoman. They have proven they can survive. This is good news for us, Donnie; I am confident that only you shall take your own recommendation as the gosple truth. However, since most of us are mere mortals and live in reality where history has proven that there are plenty of reasons about intelligently preparing for disasters, I am confused about your significant contribution to the thread. What do you do when Lex Luther shows up? Show him your comick book or your Bible? buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-03   20:31:49 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #62. To: buckeroo (#60) When Lex shows up, I will simply refer him to you. See, problem solved. Don  posted on  2014-03-03   21:38:23 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #64. To: Don (#62) Impossible. My family and I shall be enjoying clear, sub-micron filtered, sparkling water with all kinds of added coffees, teas, milks, mochas and so forth, along with diversified 2K calorie freeze dried foods that allow a mere PRESTO! for preparation for some of the finest gourmet foods on the planet. But you won't have any access to any of this stuff because of your choice about lack of planning. Nope. You have your comick books as your guide. buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-03   21:50:54 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #66. To: buckeroo (#64) I have a secret for you. That food doesn't sound that good. What happened to beef and veggies in your "plan". Don  posted on  2014-03-03   23:50:13 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #68. To: Don (#66) What happened to beef and veggies in your "plan". I didn't mention any specific food group other than a general way to ensure that you understood a 20+ year storage life capability for food: freeze dried method of food storage - this method applies to all organic or carbon based natural compounds both plant and animal; simply stated, the approach removes water for storage purposes within a vacuum chamber and when properly stored/packaged/handled, little loss of food content is achieved. Restoring a product is adding water, which I also mentioned as being pure sparlking water (slight alkaline content). Here is the brief content I suggested in the earlier post: My family and I shall be enjoying clear, sub-micron filtered, sparkling water with all kinds of added coffees, teas, milks, mochas and so forth, along with diversified 2K calorie freeze dried foods that allow a mere PRESTO! for preparation for some of the finest gourmet foods on the planet. Do I have to indicate all the food groups based on your omissions? If so, you need more than a brief post about being intelligently prepared for a disaster through planning - you need a complete education. buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-05   0:07:52 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #70.

To: Don (#70) As usual, you have no rebuttal. I notice you don't add anything to the discussion other than you are embarrassingly amused. buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-05   21:09:15 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #74. To: buckeroo (#72) (Edited) Let me put it to you this way. When you start sounding like an Eastern potentate eating your little dainties, it is hard to take your post seriously. I don't even try.

To: Don (#74) When you start sounding like an Eastern potentate eating your little dainties, it is hard to take your post seriously. Hi Don - this thread is intended to discuss being prepared for disaster; there was no other intent other than at the top of the thread which has not been edited or changed or modified in any way. This thread is NOT intended to be about about your "God" or "Him" or some make-believe religious study based or any religious doctrine pulled out of someone's ass in the past just because you believe in some form of ... ol'tyme religious tooth-faerie making you feel good and beam like a cock in the morning. If anyone has been an authoritative jack-ass, it has been YOU. So far, all you have provided to the thread are off-topic commentaries about some Christian belief that measures up to your Sunday school teacher's pathetic rendering about the Bible. Also, you have posted dissent about having general and reasonable personal plans for having good drinkable, water and freeze-dried foods. You should feel embarrassed or have a sense of shame about how you have made this thread so important to YOU. buckeroo  posted on  2014-03-06 20:09:50 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   End Trace Mode for Comment # 74.
