Uh.....you might start by offering some information about yourself. Things like, "I'm not an axe murderer", would probably be helpful information. Do you live in Zimbabwe or Chicago? Are you 12 of 92? Do you want to live off grid in the African Congo or Canada? I realize it's probably just details but folks seem to look for bits of information like that. Good luck anyway.
Where and when do we meet?
Bring lots of rice.
Is your mother coming........???
I will save you plenty of trouble, come stay with me.
I have a garden to break and plant
a chicken house to build
4 cords of wood to split and stack
I need to preasure wash the siding
the yard has to be mowed twice a week at this time of year
I must add a room to the back of the house before fall
New jobs will be added daily as life progresses.
You can pitch your tent in the back yard and live completely off grid, just be careful of the coyotes, racoons, skunks, occasional bears and the neighbor's cat.
You can walk the two miles to the Wildlife Management Area and hunt for your food
The lake is only 1/4 mile away so you can catch a fish now and then, gathering greens along the side of the road as you walk.
(the food gathering will be in addition to the work load already mentioned.)
There is a creek runing along the back of the place for water, you will need to purify it.
BTW summer here gets incredably hot (near 100) and winter is usually long and cold (below freezing for 2 months). We also have misquitoes as big as B2 bombers.
No, there will be no pay involved, after all, you are part of the group. There is also no medical care and I do not provide transportation, anywhere.
As part of the group we will vote on everything. My vote counts twice. If more then two are present my vote overrides any decision.
Pressure wash what? you left out stoking the still! - otherwise I would have signed up!
Yeah, well I still need a lot of junk dragged out of the ravine, buck thorn and brambles cut.
Bank need weed wacking every other week front of "the Place" and of course yard and trail mowed.
May camp down by the river......
I just realized I forgot to medntion the cage fights.
The local National Guard Armory holds cage fights each weekend. As part of your contribution to the group you will be expected to participate where you will also be expected to lose due to yoru malnourished, over worked and decrepit condition. The remainder of the group (me) will bet on your opponant and win large sums of money. You get none of that, after all, it is for the good of the group. (no my name is not Obama)
Really WOO, catch with the modern world! No one runs a still any more. Legal liquer is too cheap to compete and liquer in so labor intensive!Quote:

The hilllbilly faction has adopted meth as the new prefered substance. It is cheap, easy to make and does not require chopping wood or fighting ticks and chiggers or walking up the middle of the creek for a mile to tend the still.
I'm in, can I bring my Unicorn?
The OP was catnip to Kyrat, I just knew it.
Thank you Kyrat for always coming through and putting a smile on my face, to boot.
:balloon:
Sorry but I will have to turn you down WT. Your home territory is too close. After a week, and probably just before the first cage fight, you would pack your crap and hoof it back to Ohio!Quote:

If you did come here your unicorn would be welcome. We have a stud donky and I always wondered what kind of stir a unimule would create at the county fair.
Ms B, you know me too well. If you and the hubby ever drop by you can stay in the house, and no cage fights, unless you just want too.
Unimule,...... that made by John Deer, right?Quote:

Guess I'll stay here... but wish you the best of luck out in the wilderness.
S.M.
Have you got at least a twelve month supply of pizza, beer, whisky, cigarettes, and wifi access for all group members? If so I'll bring a motor home and visit a while.
D.O.M.
I AMQuote:

See? I told you. You shoulda put in some details.
Sorry about the lack of information before had just had to get a quick post out there and get everyone fired up :) this wouldn't be an indefinite thing it would be more of six months to a year in the remote wilderness location is not a concern to me, any number of people would be better than just one. would obviously would want to be in an area where we are allowed to be and allowed to hunt. and i guess some information about me is also necessary, i am 20 years old, im from Ohio my mother raised me outside and she has also been teaching me survival skills my whole life and i practice monthly i have my own equipment, just lack the man(women) power, and of coarse i have my own funds. also just the pure experience of it would be a thrill enough for me and too have a group would make it that much better. thanks
~James:rockon:
Take lots of photos.
Yep pics would be good.

BTW, to the OP, I'd suggest the Utah mountains. We'll have lots of fun!

All kidding aside, I thinks it's a great idea!
I don't think I have ever seen a cage fight. I mean, I have seen a lot of cages. I have even been in a few. But, I have never seen one mad enough to actually fight. One time I threw a glass bottle at one, shattered all over the place. But, the cage didn't move at all. No emotion, no change in facial expressions. Of course, I couldn't find it's face, but that's beside the point. Anyways, after all that, it still didn't want to fight me. I guess you have had better luck getting a cage to fight.
kyr, you a bad man, funny as all, but a bad man!:D
No offense, but can you splain to me why I should just drop all my plans to go live in my own place like a hermit to spend time with you?
I guess I'm kinda playing the song What's in it for me?
Are you able to teach me stuff, or do you want me to teach you stuff.
Are you going to keep up my bills for the duration, or am I expected to figure out how to manage my absence along with care for my kids etc?
Where short of Alaska or perhaps africa do you think we can find wilderness remote enough that anyone cannot find us and we would see no other for long duration?
What gear do you have, and am I to provide all of mine, or are you providing it to do some sort of study?
Can we film this to sell to nat geo survivalists?
Would they want it anyway.?
Oh well, get a RFP out to me and i'll get back to you after i review the specifics of your offer.
And keep grinning, it makes em wonder what you are up to.
Thad.

You could probably ask the guy he stole it from.
I recall reading in the news the pictures were not good enough to ID him. The one we now have here shows pretty distinct facial features.
The figured out who he was back in February...

Your right, I'd probably just shoot whoever I was supposed to fight and yell, next!Quote:

Whoa, there, Jim Beam. Back the truck up a minute. We're sorta particular about who we let in. You'll have to answer a few important questions.
1. How much bacon do you own?
2. How much Spam do you own?
3. How much Coffee do you own?
Before we can give you an estimate on the "I'd like to move to Indiana and enhance our skills" tax you'll have to answer those questions.
Neither, now let me in.Quote:

Just part of it. The part that wants to leave society behind. Hey! Just sayin'.....
Yeah, I really like modern conveniences, and have no desire to live like an animal. I like learning survival as a tool not a way of life!
I wonder if we could learn some survival skills from him, other than B & E.Quote:
