I'm done with this board. Adios.

My final advice to y'all: Stop posting and start prepping. Every minute posting on this site is a minute wasted. Prep or post. Your choice.

Well I don't do much prepping at 1am.

[Ayame]

Yeah I'm sitting in the middle of civilisation surrounded by surburbia packed full of people. Nice one.

I thought we had already determined that prepping is pretty futile. Everyone will just be swept along in the tide of muck when SHTF. Everyone will want a piece of your preps then. There are just too many JUST TOO MANY of us bipedal apes and the government will have plans probably.

Course one could always go and live with the kalihari bushmen.

Late.

Anxiety attack?

I don't know of any Supermen that can do it all by themselves. Gonna think of everything all by yourself? Gonna prioritize all those projects in the absence of outside opinion? Gonna maintain the notion that you are sane in a world of ignorance?

The forums do far more than act as a sounding board for wacko nutjob ideas, keeping up with the news and finding a good place for buying cast iron cookware. In here, you can keep you mind clear, stay focused, and interact with people holding similar beliefs. With the rest of the world barrelling along with no mention or knowledge of the problems we face, it is good to have a sanctuary to which to turn.

While we are in the early stages of the Transtition, establishing and maintaining the information networks which will give us a survival advantage is paramount. 5 tons of wheat offers calories but little comfort when only one dish at a time is prepared. A storm bunker with nobody to share it turns into a cell. What good is surviving when you face the new day alone?

Another peakoiler graduates!

I enjoyed your posts, best of luck getting though the bottleneck...

[patience]

kpeavy,

Right on target. This board and others have been invaluable sources of information and direction for me. I have learned an immense amount on many topics, and been freely given the benefit of knowledge that prevented making costly mistakes.

The net can be habit forming, and that can interfere with constructive work, IF YOU LET IT. Personal discipline is the key, knowing when to do what. To each his own.

I post while resting from prepping.

Posting IS prepping. It keeps me in the mindset, and keeps me from feeling like a nutjob doomer.
For me preps come in phases, no point in doing a little here and there. and we all know its not cheap trying to get what you need to (stay home) for an extended time frame.

The food alone is thousands of dollars.
The trifuel generator was $900, not to mention the propane needed to run it for a while.
I am saving after x-mas for the BIG household supply shop. And I mean BIG I figure $1500 - $2000. ouch, But it needs to be done!

Those things take a while to save for and recover from. In between I read and post, and watch all the Peter Schiff vids I can get

Best of luck Lokie.

The wood pile is up with some to spare. The gardens are put to bed and the root cellar is full as is the freezer. The rifles are sighted in for hunting season with ammo aplenty and the shooters practised. The snow shovels stand at the ready.
Your nevah done but I can spare some time each day to see what you guys are up to. You can waste too much time here and it is a tremendous aid to procrastination.
I plan on eating some popcorn this winter as the Obamanation tries to get organized and solve some of the problems before us. It should be interesting viewing.
Come spring if the government is stimulating the economy by fixing roads I'll pick up a job to raise extra cash but until then I'm pretty much set and hunkerd down living on lack of expense.

Sorry that you're leaving, Loki. I've enjoyed reading your posts and have learned a few things from you.

Personally, I'm still reading trough the older topics, so I can gain as much knowledge as possible. I'm still prepping little by little as time and money permits.

I've just finished loading the dehydrator with carrots that I peeled and steamed last night (they wouldn't all fit the first time). So, that's another 15 pounds to add to the stash... Well not 15 pounds anymore, but...

This site holds more information than some of my books. To me this site is even better than books because the information comes from personal experience or observations. And believe me I have a LOT of books. My biggest fault is that I love to learn, read, and reaserch...

[PeakOiler]

I hope you will change your mind and give us an update from time to time, Loki. I've enjoyed reading your posts too.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('dunewalker', 'I')'m a bit amused by someone with a record of 1298 posts in 2 1/2 years telling me to quit wasting my time posting & go prep instead...
