Check out that pic! Oh man, scary! That kinda stuff works for big media right?... Well let's get at it I guess.

 Or you're at least a bit curious now that it's in the public consciousness. You've done some investigating, some online searching. You’ve seen about a thousand “How to get started: step-by-step guides” and been promised the “Perfect bug out bag” more times than you can count. And if you are like I was, You’ve made zero progress, you’re starting to think it might be too expensive, maybe even a waste of time. Also, you have a headache that you’re pretty sure you didn't have earlier. I promise it's not a waste of time and it doesn't have to be any more expensive than you want it to be. Certainly not more expensive than most other hobbies, you just have to be a little thrifty and understand your goal. To be honest I, like many others, find it rather cathartic and an enjoyable hobby. So let me break it down for you and explain why it seems so tough to get started. Each week or month or whenever I feel like posting, we will talk about a new aspect of prepping and disaster preparedness. We will start with some introductory information and work into more detailed aspects such as water and food storage, shelter, personal defense, and uh... other stuff. Let's find out together.
