Can you believe the news of late? Fires, floods, tornadoes, power outages, shootings, home invasions…the list seems nearly endless. Add to that the story of our compromised national power and water grid computer systems and we could be in for a real mess. It’s gets better. A recent national news TV poll (admittedly unscientific) reported that respondents would vote for a cut in services instead of supporting higher taxes. We tend to forget that a cut in services can mean a cut in police, firefighter, paramedic and other emergency services. In an emergency, man made or Mother Nature based, these diminished services could leave us fending for ourselves.

To that end, starting 1 May the newly redesigned website will be posting videos on my top emergency gear picks, the best techniques for survival and exercises for building the Survivor’s mindset.

I am very excited about sharing these videos with those, either on the road or at home, that are interested in building the proper “crash kit”, skill sets and mental fortitude to survive nearly anything.
