Whats in my Pack? Spec Ops SOB

Really great info! You might have to watch it a few times to get all of it written down, but I'm thinking it's worth it. :-) I bet you can get a lot of this either at the dollar store or a military surplus store.

Saw this link and thought I'd share it... Somehow "uh oh" or even, "Oh crap" doesn't even begin to cover this...

A scary sign of things to come?

I found this article and I have to admit, it sent a few chills down my spine. Sure glad I don't live in Detroit, but honestly... how long until this kind of thing reaches our own backyards?

Check out this article I found on Reuters about just how bad things have gotten here in Iowa...
