on that note can pine nuts be eaten safely raw?

My friends and I have begun to think on and about various SHTF scenarios...

For the most part we will group together at a designated house and consolidate all of our supplies. At that point we...

i pick up a few extra small things here and there that I know I wont need\want. Mainly little things of coffee, extra beer (don't drink it) and other "creature comforts" I know people will want to...

Make it so you have to have X # of posts to be able to post in the classified section. Say 20 or 50 for example. By the time someone gets to that many posts it will be fairly obvious if they are a...

nice job! I've been in and around palmer park tho never thought to camp there. Did you have any problems leaving your vehicle there or did you hump it in from the main road?

nice! I just got a 30-30 I need to site in. Is there a range you went to specifically in the Denver area? I'm near downtown but usually drive south to Dragon Mans as I like his range.

Looking...

- bought 500rds of .45
- added some beans, rice and water to the stash
- went practice shooting with some like minded folks.
- added some candles from the local thrift stores to the stash as well

Id def up the ammo and add in beans. Good for protein and whatnot. I also add in stuff I pick up daily. I dont eat fast food often but when I do I ask for hand loads of salt, pepper, ketchup, etc and...

- bought another few gallons of water to store
- another bag of rice, another #10 can of beans
- took about 50 practice shots with the 45, saved brass and cleaned the heck out of it
- making plans...

bought another 20lbs of white rice ($13) along with a few more cans of beans, etc. added another 4.5 gallons of water to the supplies, also found the missing tent stakes so i now have a spare tent.
...

i use the 2lt soda bottles for water and I've used some used up protein containers (large) from the supplement store to store my rice for the time being. I do have mylar bags and some bulk that needs...

Stored away more water, purchased some more ammo a few weeks ago. Apparently .45acp is hard to find in my town. :(

Also moving forward with more supplies here and there. Figuring out a few ways to...

so when you say soap\water mix are we talking a few drops to a gallon or what type of mixture? Also are we talking dish soap or something else?

I have a similar problem with indoor plants and some...

I know in Colorado you can camp anywhere on National Forest for free, unless otherwise marked. Did that twice last year... good times. I think for the State Parks you need a park pass but i could be...

If the sun doesn't explode then a comet could cause it and if that doesn't happen then a nuke could but there is always the chance of random hit by space radiation which could fry a whole continent...

Agreed rocky. The equipment I have stored (laptop mainly) for just such a possible occurrence is not only unplugged but has the main and cmos battery removed. Not sure if emp could cause these to...

We did some minor testing of the effect of emp on electric equipment back in highschool. To make this short if you want anything protected it has to be in a lead container or a large amount of...

Gray Wolf: do you own that particular crank LED lamp? If so whats your opinion on its actual use? Do you really get 20min from 1 min of cranking. If so thats exactly what i need to get and I've been...

ya crash that is a very good point that i have been thinking quite a bit about. I've put everything in the one small closet mainly (for now) to get a good inventory on what I do have and what I am...

I also keep a small supply of gatorade around for various purposes.

I also have to agree with diluting it. Even the stuff you buy pre made should be diluted 50/50. I've worked with far too many...

love this topic :)

In the past few weeks since I've been on here I've:

- ordered about $500 of bulk food and the mylar bags and o2 suckers to go with it
- went to any thrift store i run across...

band aids...sheesh I'm stocking up on beans-bullets-booze ;)

Wow, crazy I didnt know about that law.

"Colorado Water Law requires that precipitation fall to the ground, run off and into the river of the watershed where it fell. Because rights to water are...

So if i don't have mylar and a sealer could I use the 2.5 gallon Ziploc and just press the air out of them and put a few of them into a paint bucket? I'm planning to get food grade but if i have to...

awesome link LudwigVan... there goes several hours to watch those videos :)
