    Hey man, we're not actually at war or in Vietnam. There are rules.

    Lights Out was the name of Rather’s book. Truth is 3 guys with semi auto 308s could shut down a high voltage transfer station in just a few minutes. That HV switchgear isn’t cheap and there not a whole lot of spares sitting around. There is also another EOTWAWKI book called Lights Out by David Crawford about an EMP attack on the US and how a small group near Floresville survives. The book was originally written as fan fiction on the Frugal Squirrels preparedness site.

    Maybe a sticky bomb. Look it up, it’s in the field manual.

    Yep, 'twas. And the smells of coastal bermuda hay, cowshit, diesel tractor exhaust, fresh cut cedar and 2 stroke OPE engines on a crisp winter day help that feeling linger with you.

    Was up at the ranch this weekend. Looked over some of the new calves, helped haul a little hay and cut a few trailer loads of brush off a couple of roads. Decided to take lunch down by the lake. Enjoyed my meal.

    This is great. I hate nothing more that public outdoor spaces that people have shit on top of the ground, wiped and left. Dig a fucking hole you cretin. As a scout leader who many times brought the troop dry camping on his own family land, we went through a lot of training regarding shitting in the outdoors. The scouts actually enjoyed digging a trench latrine and using it over the weekend. Some good info from the BSA Fieldbook : BSA Fieldbook Waste 33104-09.pdf

    This. I pulled my spare off the trailer last time I put it up with the intent f putting an Endurance for the spare too. Need to do that this week. Also, I think I asked you once about your old tires and rims. Do you still have them and do you want to get rid of them? I need to upgrade a farm utility from mobile home donut style 14.5” rims.

    I got tired of doing the same except leaning on a tree or log. For the interim I just built a quick square frame with legs out of 2x6s and slapped a toilet seat on top. I’m ok with it but my wife wants something a little less al fresco when we are at the place without our rv. Whatever you build be sure to put it on 4x4 or 4x6 skids so you can easily move it if you need to dig a new hole.

    A scoop or two of ashes when you are done works wonders. You can also put a vent pipe

    About to do the same. Drill your holes in a 2x2 or 2x3 and use a hand post hole digger and shovels to clear out the middle. Tin on the inside front to keep piss from rotting the wood is a good idea and I’m more a fan of a real toilet seat. Be sure to stock up on corn cobs and sears catalogs. Forgot to add that according to @mooseoutfront you need to get a dedicated shit poking stick to knock down the pile if it gets too close to the seat. This guy has a pretty good off grid YouTube channel (he has been on a couple of seasons of Alone) and has built several cabins and outhouses.

    I stopped off at the dealer in Madisonville a couple of weeks ago and he had just got in a Ranch Edition he was prepping for pickup. He said he has orders for almost 20 he’s waiting on and that if he got in 30 in one day he could probably sell the others in less than a week. Market is kinda crazy right now. Didn’t even bother asking about prices.

    How about a barn find 1978 F250 4x4 with 139 miles!

    Be sure to sanitize and test out your water system beforehand since you haven't used it in a while. We camped at Stephen F Austin State Park last weekend in our camper. Haven't camped there before and had a good time. Cold and windy Saturday when the front came through but we did some hiking on the trails early Saturday morning and on Sunday before we left. The trails along the river have some cool sycamore and cottonwood forests and the rv campsites were all pull through with a nice mowed area and spanish moss covered oaks. It's only 45 miles from the house so it was pretty easy to head over after work on Friday.

    Hard to say right now but that is right at what I bought my 2019 Ram diesel 4x4 that was outfitted very similar in Jun of 2020. I get letters every few weeks saying come back by and get a new one the the current one worth about that amount on tradein. Not gonna do it though. Just need to get the injection pump recall done and I'm gonna drive this one into the ground.

    No, 45 bonefish OVER 9lbs. That's the holy shit part.

    Decent video that compares a new Ruger made 1895 and one from 2017.

    Old school round 70 grns black powder and 45 cal bullet vs .30 cal bullet and 30 grns smokeless powder in the 30-30. Now imagine the 45-70 with newer smokeless powder and increased pressures over the black powder versions and better designed modern bullets. Perfect medicine for taking out oilfield security guards/rapists and pretty much anything else on this continent.

    Smart Pigs. Bear and the Dragon. Someone mentioned making Russian a NATO member which is what happened in the book which brought the US into the fold.

    In the future, everyone does.

    A 6lb channel catfish if you know what you are doing.
