Prep Updates 12/29/12
I had a great workout and run yesterday. I’m not quite sure if it was because I felt like I had endless amounts of energy, or because I was feeling very guilty with respect to how many calories I consumed over the holiday. I should be able to sweat off any excess fat cells here in the next few days and have prepared a decent article which will detail how to get back on the bandwagon (some might call it a resolution) after the 1st of the year. Look for it to be published on 1 Jan, 2013. Remember as preppers it’s not just about skills and stuff, our personal health/fitness levels could greatly impact our survivability if things ever got crazy.

Prepper Deals out on the Internet:
I have the Berkey water bottle, but this complete “Go Berkey Kit” has my interest peaked. I like the addition of the stainless system and a black filter element.
Check out these binos on sale over at Cabelas. My wife got me some very nice binos for Christmas, I had been asking for them for quite some time. Being able to look out a few hundred yards (or more) provides quite an advantage to the user.
Current events and opinion:
BATFE Taking Comments on a Pending Ban Ammo
PJ: This could be bad if implemented: Translated, common rifle ammunition, including steel-core ammunition, would be banned simply because a handgun happens to be chambered for that caliber – as such handguns have been for many decades.
5 fiscal-cliff effects on your wallet
PJ: Taxes and Sequestration are the most talked about, but there are many other 2nd and 3rd order effects from this fiscal cliff. Most will not be left untouched.
“Assault Weapon” Is Just A PR Stunt Meant To Fool The Gullible
PJ: This is really a great article which I can do no justice to by trying to summarize it. Please read it.
Surprising health benefits of beer
PJ: I guess I need to start drinking more beer? I have been known to knock back a few on occasion I never thought they were “good for me.”
All About Home Canning*, Freezing and Making Jams and Jellies
PJ: A simply amazing repository of information related to canning (and other great skills). Check it out.
US Hits Debt Ceiling Limit on December 31; Geithner Unveils Treasury Plan to Buy More Time
PJ: Lest we forget about the debt ceiling, remember this is what almost shut the government down almost 2 years ago. Buying more time = kicking the can down the road.
