Your Family Will Be Hit at Night!
Why is it that crises mostly strike at night when you are most vulnerable and least prepared to act? Due to the recent super-storm Sandy, millions lost power in a flash. It has now been weeks rather than days, and I am hearing that it may be December or even January before power is returned to many. … [Read more...]
Wine, Ammo, & Toilet Paper
Hardly bedfellows, right? Well, in fact, yes. This needy threesome comes up high on my personal security and preparation platform. I have prepared an inventory of everything we would not wish to be without were the electric grid to go down for a month or more. Obviously, water and food head the list.

When the juice blinks off for an extended period, all those Wall Street skyscrapers and movie town estates will go black and dead. Talk about trapped! … [Read more...]

Are You on the Right Survival Security List? Probably Not!
I have a rundown of a list of my friends and associates around the country and something quickly jumps out. A large percentage of the group residing in the old Confederacy states (especially Virginia) is prepared to the max, and I mean the super max. Most have me beat by a long shot because they are ranchers or farmers and have the space, the land mass, to get the personal security job done right. And get it done they have. … [Read more...]
