As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I know I pick at Hal Turner when he posts things to the public, but he is just so stupid in these things. His latest warning to his 8000 dollar a month donors is that men should ask their women if they need feminine products to stock up on, as Hal is in doomer mode again.
My thought is, if a man is married to a woman who does not have a supply of pads, tampons and whatever to soak up the wazoo, he has more problems than that woman is worth as if she is not looking after herself you do not want her in charge of anything in the house.
This though is a cut down version of the Hal's ramblings. In reading it, I thought, "It REQUIRES if you are primary home heating with wood FOUR CORDS a winter. Remember children, that wood burns up fast and Grandpa and Grandma never bathed all winter, were dressed like an Eskimo, did not have pipes to freeze so wood was not burned up and wasted as they had to cut it by hand.
So when the Hal says he bought one cord and he could not see it in the shed as it was nothing, this gomer is really working Darwin list territory.
I will add he has 4 propane tanks. People with a brain like the idiots in the Brier have at least 1 500 gallon tank or two 500 gallon tanks hooked up for heating. Gee then you do not have to worry about snowstorms or wet roads when you need gas as you just ran out. Apparently the Brier is ahead of the game as our tanks all have satellite monitors on them so the company just comes out and fills them.
I will edit this shit below and meet you on the other side.
My wife and I drove up to rural Pennsylvania Friday afternoon, to get out of - and away from - the New York City area. I have a small home on about one acre of land up here that I inherited (after paying off Mom's Reverse Mortgage) when my mom died in November of 2021.
A lot blood, sweat, and tears have gone into this little home to fix things that needed fixing, improve some things that could be improved, and in general make this place a clean, safe, comfortable, fall-back location to get us safely away from the New York City metro area which is our primary residence.
When my mom died (intraparenchymal cerebral hemorrhage) she had two wood sheds with fire wood for the wood burning stove. We aren't up here all that much, especially in winter, so we didn't use much of the wood over the past five years. We used some each year, but not a whole lot.
Well, with the oil situation such as it is because of the idiotic decision our government made to attack Iran, and the oil / fuel situation growing worse each week, one of the things I had to consider for the house in Pennsylvania is how much fire wood did I still have left, and would it be enough if everything goes to hell in a handbasket?
So about four weeks ago, I asked some friends up near the PA house to move all the wood from a small wood shed, into a firewood rack inside the house near the wood burning stove, and the rest of that wood onto the front porch which is where my mom stored some each year before Winter really set-in, so she would have close, easy access once the indoor rack ran out.
Those neighbors took care of that about three weeks ago. They emptied the smaller wood shed, and also took some from the main, larger, wood shed. It quickly became clear to me the remaining wood in the larger of the two woodsheds, needed to be replenished. So around October 15, I went to the local firewood place and bought a CORD of wood and asked them to deliver it and stack it in the larger woodshed, but if it wouldn't all fit, to put the overflow into the smaller woodshed.
They delivered the CORD about a week ago.
When my wife and I arrived up here Friday afternoon, I was surprised to see that the main wood shed is not only NOT completely filled, the smaller woodshed is still empty. While the porch has a good amount of wood on it, and the rack inside the house is full, the one CORD I bought is simply not going to be sufficient - especially if things go to hell in a handbasket and we have to rely on fire wood to heat the house.
So this morning, I went back to the place where I bought the CORD and told them I need another. They anticipate delivering that on Tuesday; which is mid-term election day here in the USA.
It is my personal belief that President Trump intends to re-start hostilities with Iran the very next day. I could be wrong. I HOPE I'm wrong. But "hope" is not a strategy. And if the war does re-start, and Iran attacks us in ways we may not anticipate, I don't want to be stuck trying to top-off my supplies with throngs of people who are totally unprepared, panicking to get what they need while things are still available. I want MY "preps" to be all done and completely in-place if TSHTF.
This house in PA has tanked propane gas as it's gas source for the stove, oven, hot water heater (tankless), and for the gas furnace. Four tanks, at 120 gallons each, but only filled to eighty percent (80%) for expansion room and safety. So when the local gas company tops them off, each tank is at 96 gallons max. That means I have a total of 384 gallons.
The house also has an electric heat pump, which comes on at temperatures above 32 degrees, which lessens the house reliance upon the gas furnace. But that heat pump sucks 3,000 watts of electric when it runs whereas the gas furnace only uses about 500 watts. If TSHTF, from an energy standpoint, it may end up being necessary to use the furnace instead of the heat pump, if the grid is down and I have to rely on solar battery power. Ergo, using the wood burning stove may be necessary to lessen the use of gas with the furnace.
It gets *COLD* up here in the mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania in the winter, so I have to do everything I can to make certain if TSHTF, we won't freeze to death if everything goes to hell.
I will call the local gas company on Monday to tell them to top-off the tanks again. I prepay for my gas, so the gas they're holding is already mine, I just have to call them and say come deliver it. I usually get such deliveries on a Tuesday, so if I'm right, on Election day, the gas tanks will be topped off with propane.
Early-on in setting up this house, we bought 100% cotton quilts and bedspreads, and got really heavy blankets and comforters for each bedroom. We have flannel pajamas and slippers for everybody. We generally come up here at Christmas time and it's all comfy-cozy when we do. If TSHTF, that's gonna change how this house gets used (from rarely to always) and I need to make certain its ready, and we're ready.
You know, that __is__ a man's job. It's a husband's responsibility to provide for his wife. It's a father's responsibility to provide for his family. That may sound old-fashioned or even sexist, but it IS the reality of the world. It is certainly reality for ME and MY family, and I take my responsibilities seriously.
Which is what I had to remind myself today when I went to the store and had to buy extra packages of feminine pads for my wife. There I am, in the women's hygiene aisle, looking for a particular brand and particular size, while being looked-at oddly by the women who were also in that aisle. A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do!
So guys . . . ask your misses if you should get two or three months worth of feminine pads or other feminine hygiene products to have in the house in case supply-chains get cut off. She'll probably look at you very oddly, but you've got to get this covered now, while supplies are readily available!
I also bought 36 more rolls of toilet paper on top of the 66 rolls we already have. In a house with three people, toilet paper goes fast, so I got more just in case.
Lastly, I bought three months worth of "Rid-X" septic treatment for the septic tank, too.
It seems to me that the "incidentals" are what gets overlooked in "preps." I thought it worthwhile to point this out before things go wild weasel.
For the record, people around here have more toilet paper they lost in their sheds than Hal Turner has bought for his ass wiping adventures. One thing I do not want to do is go back to corn husks, grass or the Roman wool sponge on a stick to scrub shit off my ass. Toilet paper is mandatory and my cousin has a wall of it in her house as she is not going to run out.
Personally, I hope President Trump blows the hell out of Iran, before Iran blows the hell into America. Things are looking good in Europe being shattered, BRICS on the ropes and our gas prices did go down 20 cents. Now if the President nullifies fraud elections, sends out the military, Congress does not seat Democrats, we have a big burn down, and 47 cracks down, that is the kind of world I have planned for as Jesus is Who I am looking for.
To close this up..........if it is a man's job to take care of his family, Hal Turner is another biological specimen. It is not explained how he has his neighbors looking around his house and things, and it does not equate that neighbors have shit kids, who have shit doper friends who look at Hal's vacation retreat as their first target. Last thing you ever want is some asshole seeing what you have.
I would horrify all of you if you saw the place I live on. I DELIBERATELY do not mow things. I have shit piled up. People think Kujo lives here and that is the way I want it. Let the idiots who build their homes on the road with their porch facing the road so they can't sit out and enjoy that porch for dust and people, as those are the places that are going to be robbed first.
Everyone in that neck of the woods knows Turner is a whiny gimp, his wife is a gimp and that kid is a chip off the old block. That retreat is a smorgasbord of things to take from solar panels to small propane tanks that can walk off along with all that nice wood and fluffer blankets.
Stupid is as stupid people are and having a retreat you need others to watch, have to drive hours to is no retreat at all. They call it a cache for the locals to loot.
Do not use Rid X on your sewer. Pump the damn thing out when the sun is shining.
..........and I did not edit the above as it is so stupid it all had to be read. Idiots paying Turner 8000 a month to be told how to die.
Nuff Said
