I’ve talked to hundreds of preppers over the last two years and many people who like me try and provide guidance to those who prep or staring to and the one comment I hear the most is that they have a ‘feeling’. These people are from all social, education and financial backgrounds. They say that there are demonstrable statistic that show that the number of people missing airline flights that end up crashing is higher than the average number of people that miss flights. I know myself there have been times when I have putted around doing this and that in the morning, which is unusual for me only to leave and find that a big wreck has taken place along my route to work. I say listen to that little voice in the back of you head, because there’s a good chance it knows what its’ talking about.

For those who are just starting or are old hands at prepping you may find my Preparedness Manual helpfull. You can download it at:

NOTE! THIS IS A FREE DOWNLOAD. I DO NOT MAKE ONE CENT OFF MY PREPAREDNESS MANUAL!

For those of you who haven’t started already it’s time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, a extra couple changes of oil and filters for your car, tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.

As the LDS say “When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.”

Or as the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
NIV Proverbs 22:3

Lastly this for the doubters and the scoffers.

“There is no greater disaster than to underestimate danger.

Underestimation can be fatal.”

I have converted a few simply by asking them to turn off the ball game and DWTS and take a real good look around.

Look at how our society in the US is crumbling. God is being outright “killed”, the traditional family is dying, our government is overreaching daily, we are embroiled in foreign wars over oil, and inviting the very same people we are fighting to live amongst us. Those people live by a religious belief system that demands our enslavement or death.

We have turned our fine fighting forces into social experiment police forces, who CINC is almost certainly an imposter, brought up and foisted upon us by socialists, who dare us to say anything, and then call us racist if we do.

We have tens of thousands of anarchists in our streets daily, who want nothing more than to burn everything down.

We have MILLIONS of hypenated Americans who desire to be separate from the mainstream, and have for generations now, not worked nor do they desire to work.

I ask those that I speak to if they can actually see us continuing like we are? And just exactly who is going to lead us, the culturally fractured, into the promised land of peace and prosperity? There is no one presently who has the ability or the charisma to do so.

The answer is invariably that things are going to come apart. I then tell them they must prepare to survive the great fracturing.

Am I a prepper? Yes, I am. Why? Simple. It's not because I'm afraid to die when TEOTWAWKI happens, it's because I'm afraid I'll survive.

Here’s a minor little ting I just started doing lately.

I travel a lot for my job. Hotel stays 2-4 nights a week. When I leave I take the shampoo, conditioner, bath soap, make-up remover wipes, etc. They expect the guests to use these so what the heck. (I usually pack my own shampoo, etc.)

It’s amazing how fast the stuff starts piling up.

“Perhaps it is because of the media attention coming from one interpretation of the Mayan prophecy that states the world ‘ends’ in our calendar year 2012,” Gottfried said, adding that some Mayan scholars have disputed the interpretation.

Perhaps it's because people can see the world coming apart at the seams.

We're coming apart morally, society is breaking down, and we have technology that we no longer have the integrity or wisdom to keep pace with using.

I don't know that any other generation has had quite the capability to annihilate itself, or be annihilated by some madman starting a chain reaction of strikes and counter-strikes.

Certain segments of humanity have shown us recently what humankind is capable of and it isn't a pretty sight.
