Welcome to my place. This is about one thing SURVIVAL for when
the manure has hit the spinning blades, the ground shakes-rattles-and-rolls, the wind blows, and the rains come and
wash everything away. It has tips and guides for disaster preparation and proverbs and wisdoms to develop
your survivor mentality.
(This comes from the NOAA Storm ready web page. There are some important statistics here. Pay attention
because even if you think you are safe you are not. The numbers will catch up with you whether you are ready or not.)
Americans live in the most severe weather-prone country on Earth. Each year, Americans cope with an average of 10,000
thunderstorms, 2,500 floods, 1,000 tornadoes, as well as an average of six deadly hurricanes. Potentially deadly weather
impacts every American. Some 90% of all presidentially declared disasters are weather related, leading to around 500 deaths
per year and nearly $14 billion in damage.
In this day of crazy weather, terrorist attacks, increased
seismic activity, I find that many people are unprepared to deal with calamities on the scale recently seen on 9/11 and Mother
Natures wrath displayed in September of 2005.
I was born and raised in Louisiana to parents who lived through the Great
Depression. From them I have learned frugal living when times are tough. I learned to live off the land and to fix what I
have and make what I need. I have lived through tornadoes, hurricanes, and flooding there. In my time as an active duty Marine
I spent five years in Japan. There I lived through typhoons and earthquakes. I have survived them all because of one simple
fact, by the Grace of God, I was prepared. Knowing that life is full of hardships and being able to deal with them when they
come will save you from making a complete fool out of yourself on national TV. Yes, those folks in New Orleans did not have
to go through so much while waiting for the authorities to get organized, up and running.
So, I am providing as
much information as I can find on preparing for the eventual calamities and disaster that will move into your lives.
I am not out to make a buck so the information is free. It is the first step to cost effective preparation. Additionally I
have provided a number of links, governmental, commercial, and private that provide vaulable and "FREE" information on how
to prepare and how to do it cost effectively.
I can now add an additional qualification of being a certified CERT (Community
Emergency Response Team member). That along with the experience of living with disasters and military training I can attest
that 7 P's really work.

I have removed the link to the terrorist tracking map. It now requires a login. I despise bait and switch tactic like
this. I will not support them for any reason. Like it is said, no man is an island. So if they choose to be one for the money
then woe unto them as they are a tropical island and the storm is coming for them.
