More on the Junglas

Crap! I read this thread :eek: earlier today and immediately quit my job :eek: went to the grocery store and then ordered a Junglas. :thumbup:

Guess I didn't need to quit my job. :D
 
Prepare for the worst, and hope for the best. There is no way we to stop some form of collapse happening. There is just no way we can sustain things the way they are now. It will fall, And I think sooner then later. Having a couple things happening at one time, not a big deal, but there are so many things happening at once right now......Something is gonna give!
 
I try not to fall into thinking about doom and gloom too much. It can really slow down your productivity and fill you with negative thoughts.

What happened to the junglas being a "cool" knife you coukd simply have fun chopping up stuff ... Chopping up wood. Good old fashion fun in the woods. I don't own one but sure seems fun to play with in the woods.

It is.:)

Of course, I don't daydream about hordes of radioactive jihadist zombies being unleashed when the fuel runs out on the power locks keeping them caged.:D

First it was nuclear war.
Then Y2K.
Now we're supposed to get worried because oil, something in widespread use for a mere century, is not going to quite as easily available (except for the huge reserves in Canadian oilsands of course)?

There's real things to worry about.
This isn't one of them.:)
 
Maybe Esse can have an ad campaign for the Junglas that is something like this It would need to be changed to "Buy a Junglas, your life might just depend on it!"
 
well, with everyone bugging out and heading for the hills, i guess i'll kick back... bug IN for a week or so, maybe check on a few neighbors and put a plan together from there..

that said, being in Tulsa okla, we're currently in the grips of Snow-magedeon 2011, (catchy huh) wife is bugging in at work since they've got the facilities for it, im at home with the dog, was my first real chance to put the Hest to work. supplies are decent, and power is holding lol, but
this mini shit hit the fan scenario has shown me just how woefully unprepared i truely am... I NEED a Junglas... and a decent bug out bag, and other essentials lol.

i'll try to get some pics up later. even include my snow shelter failure, would get a decent mini cave going before it would cave in on me..
 
Like I said before, I quit trying to convince people long ago. If people want to pretend they live in a safe fairy tale world...so be it!
 
This thread need pics....representative pics....
A glimpse of dooms day......and the right survival tool

i don't believe or pretend the world is safe or a fairy tale, but i'm certainly not living in fear of the sky falling down when i could walk outside right now, slip on the ice and get a head injury the ends my life. it's all good looking out for bad, but there's no point in worrying about every what if you can think of. i would go insane if i did that.
 
I don't worry about it.But Ikeep myself aware and prepared. I think maybe some have got thewrong idea. I'm not building bunkers, or moving the Wife and Kids out into the Forest. I am just very aware of the things going on around me, and in the world I live in, and what I see isn't good. Am I worried and depressed, NO, I'm a happy person with a great family, but I do keep my guard up with what is happening all around us.

i'm really glad this thread turned around a little bit. at first, it seemed a little ridiculous. i'm not pretending to know everything that goes on in the world, but i'm certainly not afraid of any impending collapse. the only collapse that seems realistic is economical, but i'm not sure i can see that actually happening either. not completely anyway.

basically, i don't have time or energy to live in fear. based on the op, it seems that the "non-mainstream media" is into scare tactics just as much or more than the mainstream. i can't stomach either. sure, preparing for the worst is fun (obvious from sales of junglas knives and versipacks), but we'll probably continue to live more comfortably than much of the world for the rest of our lives.

Enough of that...that is too damn much common sense for one sit down reading...It's like logic overload. My head hurts, I'm going to get online and order me up a ESEE 3...:D
 
There is no conceivable way to prepare for any kind of collapse, so stop pretending there is.
We would die.
Knives are not going to beat guns.
When bullets run out those carrying only a knife will be dead.
Since you don't live in the hills you will die there.
Start a garden anyway, it's good for you.

Ummm...Yeah:jerkit:
 
You never know whats going to happen. I was a hardcore prepper for a few years relocated my family hardcore! Loads of food and bullets I try to live life to the fullest these days and try not to think about it. I have what I would need to live comfortably for awhile and well rounded skills. I have a 1 year old so I dont see me heading for the hills anytime soon. Worst comes to worst I have a few extra supplies I will be able to donate to a food pantry in 10 years if nothing happens. But I do have a junglas and I think I want another one lol
 
I want to know exactly what specific recent event or events would lead someone to assume that a huge change in society is imminent. "The End Is Near" has been a never-ending refrain for hundreds of years now, and it has not happened yet. We're not going to run out of oil anytime soon, at least from what I've heard. If we were, you would see a rapid and high surge in the price of oil. I doubt that we're running out of oil anytime soon when the price of gasoline where I live has dropped from $3.04 per gallon to $2.95 per gallon in the last week. There's always going to be some war or conflict going on somewhere. I don't think we'll ever see the day when there is not. True, eventually we will need to move from oil to other methods of energy, but this will be a gradual change, not "here today, gone tomorrow." And for all of you types who want to think you can really live off the land, go do it. Find your nearest state or national park, pack up your gear, and go survive in the middle of it. In the dead of winter. Few would survive. If things go south, I have no intention of leaving my home. I have an extended family network, four walls, a roof, a cubbard full of canned food, all my guns, ammo, a fireplace, a woodpile, clothing, beds, blankets, and a well I could draw drinkable water out of with a rope and bucket here. Why the hell would I pack up and head to the woods? So someone else can set up residence in my home while I'm out sleeping on the cold ground in the rain?
