Will do,had heard also from Sarge and a few others but that has stopped as well,thought maybe the net had went down as well,hearing from you is a blessing,except now,I AM worried about Trax and the others.
Hello? Hello? is this thing on? The net has been down for a couple of days. Hopefully it's up and running. Things aren't going so bad here. The cold is better. A pack of dogs was nosing around yesterday. Glad I was inside. They looked pretty hungry. I made another run to town two days ago and I've got a shortwave radio hooked up. I just wish the antenna was higher. I picked up a faint broadcast about some battle that took place at International Falls, Mn. I guess a lot of folks were trying to get to Canada and they sealed off the border into Fort Francis. If I heard the report correctly several people were killed. Hope you guys are okay.
Rick,glad to hear from you,and that it is only a problem with the net,guess I may have to find another way into Canada,or just sit and wait for Trax to find me....
Stopping to rip off the Bass Pro shop as I pass, sure looks like it was looted, gotta be worth checking out, lotta gear there. If I'm not back on in a few hours then... guess I didn't make it.
Careful Beo,dont see many people,but the ones I have seen have been strange.
now have water wheel and 24v DC system with an inverter. output wattage is not yet impressive. plan to go scavenging today. would be nice to be able to pump water.
This is on the level, not role-playing. I'm having severe "loading problems" with my dial-up. Way too long loading; it took me like forever just to get to this point. Don't give up on me, I'll solve this problem in the near future and be back soon!:cool:
Wow! Glad to see so many people made it. I know I'm new to the group, but glad you all are doing OK. Have seen some individuals roaming through, scavanging. Didn't make contact with any. Made it to one of the Navy bases nearby (there's 3). No personnel, no ships. Very little equipment that could be moved. I did find a few yard craft, some inflatables, and one tug boat. Working on figuring how to get it moving. Shouldn't be too hard. It has full fuel tanks (about 85,000 gal of diesel). No food or weapons, but I'm pretty good there. Weather's been great. I know some of you were headed north. Let me know if you're coming this way.
How long will the gas be good for 2 years then what ? do I rig up a still and go to alcohol or go back to horse, but what ever I decide to do it had better be before the gas goes bad
Barely made it out of the damn Bass Pro Shop alive, some infected crazies in there had a woman cornered in an isle, shot two and used my hatchet on one, split him like a melon. Got a few more rounds for my .40 cal S&W and picked up a .22 rifle and three boxes of shells for it, tossed it in the back, grabed some rappeling rope from a shelf and for some reason a lantern but no fuel for it. The woman ended up being a nut, she was straight ziggidy boo and had something wrong with her blisters all over her and drooling like sick dog, shot her and got out when I heard a comotion further away, shots and screaming. Been on the road for a while and haven't seen anyone since, when I hit the horse ranch a litle further up the way gonna check the horses and see if I can't pack a couple and ride one cross country. Be back up in a bit.
*Note* Saw a pack of dogs running around scavenging, looked pretty hungry and mean, what the hell has happened?
Beo,
Well, finally some good news. Two families were making their way through the area this morning. Unarmed, no food or water. Three kids between them. Not a very happy lot. I walked around the corner of a building and danged near walked into 'em. They were as surprised as I was. Shocked might be a better word. Lucky they weren't a bunch out looking for trouble. I gave them some food and water and they are shacked up at my place for now. Kids ate like they had never had food.
I've been pretty lucky so far. None of the problems you folks have run into. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
We're going to make another trip to town tomorrow and see if we can scrounge up a couple of more generators and some more fuel. It would be nice if they could move into a couple of the houses around here and we can try to get our lives back to "normal".
Computer's still loading extremley slow, but that's okay for now. Okay, here's my update: Chris found another National Guard dude name of Jerome. Jerome is a top-notch mechanic and he's got some kind of big mother-lovin' "all-terrain" cargo truck; (our tax-dollars at work:rolleyes:) we've loaded up all or extra supplies into the truck which I'm gonna drive. The two grunts will drive the Humvees and are we ever loaded for Bear, Grizzley at that! We had a bit of a start yesterday as we were heading out across the large field in front of my house, going west, when a bunch of nut-case, red-necked Survivalists came out of the woods in their pick-up trucks and shouted at us to give everything to them or they were going to open up on us with their Ruger Mini 14's, shotguns, .22's, a slingshot, and what not. Chris stopped, dived out of his seat, came up through the hatch and cocked that big M-60 .50 cal. machine gun. Then he yelled back: "Hey mother-*******, You wanna take those pop-guns back to K-mart?" Then he opened up on them. Man! He lit those trucks up like the 4th of July! Jerome tossed a couple of Frag. grenades and I opened up with the saw. I got one of them in the head, but only because I started firing low and wasn't used to the weapon. It's recoil caused it to rise and a fluke shot caught one of them square in the head; he dropped like a limp doll. Chris took out four of them in one truck, two inside the cab and two in back, not to mention scrapping that really nice looking F-350; probably just took it off the lot at the Ford dealership. Jerome's grenades wounded two of them as we saw the rest of them picking them up and helping them into the woods. We'll be watching our "6" for awhile, but I think we'll head for California for now and look up SMOK, & any other CA. wolves. More later.
Went out to the truck this morning,thinking I was going to slip into town,and see if there was anything useful to be found there,just my luck that darn truck wont start,battery is fine,I'm thinking it is the fuel pump,great,havent heard from Trax in days,dont know what is going on with him,is he alright??I hope so,but what to do now......?
One of these days this thread is going to bore me. What a joke! :D You aughta change the name of the forum site to Doomsday Survival Forums. :rolleyes:
Why would you post that? I'm confused. If you don't like the thread or it bothers you that some of us are just goofing around with it then you don't have to read. But be honest, you can't stay away can you?:rolleyes:
Be careful what you wish for ..I got people here now Hippies ten of them and they have there own seeds but so far they're a good group and they are use to a lower stander of living all ready so what I have here looks real good to them . They are more then willing to help . But they are not good workers love to serf and I love to fish but we will get the planting dun first. The girls and I do mean girls they are four of them they cannot be more then 20 years old , all have dread locks, only one looks good in her locks . O will it's not quit here now they drum half the night . I am wearied about two of the guys thou , one keeps too much to himself and does not talk , the other sit and rock sometimes . But how can anyone come out of what we have been though and be a little craze.....canid... you may know them their like your rainbow people ...Sarge47 come on out the fishing is great Salmon will be here soon ,the crab are ever where and these guy have these little home made smokes that are just great I filling a lot better about thing now cough..cough :D :o
just be careful smock, you know what they say:
"how can you tell hippies have been in your house?"
we're still there...
if you have trouble with the late drumming just call circle and propose a noise curfew. our kind can't make decisions or policies without consensus.
Yes... that is what I meant by be careful what you wish for , and thanks that is advice a consensus OK . It's not my house now is it ? canid ? :confused: :eek: :cool: O will it list there people around now and if something happens to me the pack will know..HAY..Did you spell that right ..smock..:D
Corndog don't be a dick :D we're just goofing off. And I see you got no imagination so that must mean you lack a certain survival skill, because survival is only limited by the mind. And I said this as I came up behind him at the horse ranch and took him out by placing my knife at the base of his skull and sliding it up at an angle, he may not have been a wacko but he bothered me :Djk besides it rattled around in there and a gust of air shot out... lol... :D
Got two horses packed for transporting and I'm riding out on the other, taking as much as I can (weapons and such) food, clean water, some clothing, and survival gear, Sarge found an old lever action 30/30 thought ya might like it ya seem like an old west guy to me. Heading west from here through Indiana towards Montana and maybe up north, cutting acroos country to avoid gangs of infected or crazies, I'll check back in after a bit.
Beo did you just call me a dick? You narrow-minded trekker I was one of them infected crazies and when that gust of air shot out it infected you with that biological warfare virus...welcome to the gang, Beo. :D (That's a screeching hair-raising laughter you just heard).
(in hushed tones) Beo's overhand serve was countered by Corndogs powerful backhand. A hush fell over the crowd as it looks like Beo is setting up for an approach shot. Survival tennis has never been executed more perfectly folks. Everyone is anxiously waiting to see when and where the timer will explode the tennis ball. Thrilling!
Now I'm riding my horse through the country infected, boil covered, and drooling, looted a corndog stand and ate the owner and his dog and two cats, heading into this neighborhood so I can seak up on all you survival freaks and spit my poison in your face... muuuuuhhaaaaaaaa!!!!!! :D
Darn CD i was only joking. Now I'm a zombie freak survival hunter!
Ohhhhhh! As expected, Beo lobbed the ball just over the net into Corndog's court and he's scrambling to make the play! Still that timer is ticking.
Beo,are you sure you are in fected?? maybe you just have a bad case of poison ivy from riding through the woods?
Oh snap! That wasn't a boil it was a zit and I just popped it... lol... and you didn't spit viral air you farted ya nasty freak... lol... and the drool and burning eyes is from the stench... lol... so now I can avoid the suburbs. :D
Swayed by the voice of a woman, eh Beo? Hope is not a cure for this virus. You're a zombie freak crazy like I was before you drove that there toothpick of yours in the base of my skull. And don't a number of dying men let out a nasty fart and crap before they die? Sorry, ol trekker, you didn't even make it through Indiana without being infect with the virus. We're both a casualty of this war. Now we can rest in peace with the other 90 percent of our brothers and sisters....let the flags wave at half-mast.
Okay, no problem least I'll die in peace. Or until I fart and crap myself:D
And of course a pretty woman can ALMOST sway me.
In Lake of the Woods Minnesota, out from a town a little ways and feeling weak and sick, gonna sit by this old shed or barn... or whatever... and sit it out... been riding hard for a weeks... can't go on.
Been alone here now for a couple of days,not much to do but check out the forestry,there is a nice little lake just north of here,cant dee the other side from here,but should be able to fish out of it.
Have also been gathering wild medicines,and herbs.Gotta go out to the well and get some water...BEO? Beo is that you?? Good God you are buring up with fever,can you make it into the cabin?? I'll mix up some medicine for you to take,dont know if it will work or not,but I gotta try...
Oh Nell... so glad you made it... feel weak but I can... stagger inside, if your... medicine don't work put me out of my misery, burn my body so no one else gets infected... thought I was immune... guess not.
Beo,wake up and drink this,its gonna taste nasty,but you have to drink it,do you think you can eat something?? I'll go out and bring in all the supplies and take care of your horses,you just make sure you drink all of that,if you need me,just yell,I wont be too far out.
Thanks, I might be able to eat a little... ughh... this stuff is rough but I can feel it going down and warming my inards.
I know,it doesn't taste good,just drink it! I have gotten everything in off the horses and now out of the truck as well,dinner will be ready in a little bit,just stew for now,as it will be easier for you to take,still haven't heard form Trax,geting a few messages from Sarge,smak,canid,Rick and a couple others now and then,who all have you been in contact with?
Anyone seen my pee bottle? Oh, there it is next to Beo. Hey, it's empty.
ROTFLMAO.... Good one Riiiiiiiiiick. But it seems to be helping, now just spred your pee around and cure this virus.
Yeah, I seen CornDog, unfortunately I had to dust his azz... lol... he infected me, or at least tried to.
Oh I see how it is,I cook up a magic Indian cureall to get you well and you thank Rick because you drank his pee,pfft fix your own darn stew!!!!!LMAO!!!
He must have learned that from Bear. I sure hope he made it.
