Weekly Preppers Thread.

[blam]

The fanatical leftist group Southern Poverty Law Center is looking for more law-abiding citizens to label as militias, right-wing-radicals and etc.

They would love to start including preppers in that definition.

In the news this morning:

Donna - obviously you are doing something RIGHT.

How do you keep eggs from spoiling in long term storage?

We go through tons of eggs, and I have yet to figure out how to add them to my preps.

Thanks!

This guy is screwed!

His pic is all over the net!

Jim, we hardly knew ye.

[blam]

LOL.

I seem to remember when I lived in Texas that a license to own one of those was about $400.00 a year.

[mylife]

$200 for a lifetime in any state (per weapon) for full auto
I think the Lahti is semi auto but falls in the category of “destructive device”

I think the tax stamp is the same, but I am not certain.

You used to be able to buy those via the mail from the back of magazines with ammo for like $265 bucks.
Now the ammo is like $20 a round.

Somehow no one was ever killed with one in peacetime and the world was just fine.

Powdered Eggs or you can coat them with oil:

Is it legal for CC?

[mylife]

Or you can pickle them, but its not the same for breakfast ☺

I would stick to powdered eggs.

They aint bad for omelets if you have ingredients to perk them up.

We used to eat them on submarines.

[mylife]

Negatori!

Don’t worry about an egg going bad and you not knowing it. Believe me; in this case the NOSE KNOWS.

It's natures way of telling you somethings wrong.

[Kartographer]

OH well I was hoping! I was going to go out and buy one of those long black dusters just for it!

[mylife]

You’re an old fart! LOL

Thats WW2 class!
Somethings never change though. You have to have provisions that store, and you can stow in a compact environment.

[mylife]

Black dusters "print" when you carry one of those. ☺

[blam]

"Thats WW2 class!"

Yup. Nothing like four 1600 HP Diesel Jimmies running right next to your bed. And the fumes, well, they give your eyes a certain pinkness that some say was(ahem) charming.

[blam]

Thanks. I didn’t know about the mineral oil on eggs.

[tnlibertarian]

If you’re big enough to conceal it, you ain’t gonna need it.

[Kartographer]

Just for the look on the guys face when you pull it out and point it at him. ;-)
