When The Trucks Stop Running

Truck supplies

Here’s something to think about; What the hell are you going to do if there is a major disruption in our supply line? For the last thirty years I have lived on farms, and with the use of the internet and online shopping, nothing is out of reach anymore. Need work boots? No problem. Same for media (books, video, information) or even tools and food supplements. We don’t have to have a nuclear war or disease pandemic to bring this on, just look at Hurricane Katrina. On the west coast we are counting the days til we have a major earthquake. The east coast has hurricanes, the midwest and south have tornadoes. In the very, very rural area I live in we will be at the far side of the supply line, but we are actually better prepared for long-term disruption. I have a farming background and plenty of garden space. My neighbors have sheep and cattle, and we are all on wells. I plan to buy one of those old hand pumps that fits on the well head, and we are well set up for hunting and fishing. The one hitch is medicine and serious medical needs for the very young and elderly. As my family and neighbors age around me this problem becomes more evident. We do have several local clinics but serious health issues require a trip out of the sticks. None-the-less, we are set up pretty good. James Howard Kunstler has a great blog and occasional podcasts that touch on these issues, and has written a series of fiction books describing the devolution of society and the best possible scenarios that may arise from the ashes.

The hypnotic effect of this remedy lasts for a week after the end of therapy, and the rebound syndrome doesn’t happen (sleep impairment is possible only on the first night). The treatment course lasts two weeks. In high doses, the drug https://ambienpro.com causes addiction, so be careful!!!

  • Review: “Continental Reckoning” By Elliot West
    I learned quite a bit in reading this huge book, which probably was meant for college classes. Indeed, the author of “Continental Reckoning”, Elliot West, is a Professor of History Emeritus at the University of Arkansas. This book should be in an Economic or Law history class, and probably is. Author Elliot West clearly outlines […]
  • All About Ken Kesey: Two Reviews
    “Spit In The Ocean #7 – All about Kesey” is an eclectic collection of real tales about legendary Oregon writer Ken Kesey. Kesey is best known for writing “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” (mental institutions) and “Sometimes A Great Notion” (an Oregon logging family). Both books were actually written in California, and both are […]
  • Review: “Acid Dreams” By Lee & Shlain
    I found “Acid Dreams; The Complete History Of LSD: The CIA, The Sixties, And Beyond” a pretty good summary of the LSD experience, from the use of the drug in interrogation techniques used by intelligence agencies, to the use of such drugs to destabilize the revolutionary youth movement. At nearly 300 pages (my copy), it […]
  • Did Jack Scott “Radicalize” The NBA’s Bill Walton?
    Did Jack Scott Radicalize NBA Star Bill Walton? Sadly, we have to note that Bill Walton (and Jack Scott) are no longer living. Walton was a hero for many where I grew up in Portland, Oregon. He was the star of an NBA championship, which I pretty much didn’t care about. Later, Walton was doing […]
  • Review: Gold Warriors – America’s Secret Recovery Of Yamashita’s Gold
    This book, “Gold Warriors”, by Sterling and Peggy Seagrave is really, really good. It can be expensive because it is out of print, but I bought it long ago and it has been waiting in my “to read” pile. Affordable copies can still be found, I ordered one for a friend and apparently it is […]
