Odds 'n Sods:
Reader Bob S. pointed us to an
interesting thread in progress over at the When SHTF Forum, about Bug-Out Vehicles
(BOVs).
I generally advise painting BOVs in a single flat earth tone color. A camouflage
paint scheme can actually attract attention, which could be a bad
thing. OBTW, most semi-gloss paints can be turned into flat paint by mixing
in a flattener
additive before
spraying
it
on.

The Russians continue
to claim publicly that they are "withdrawing" from Georgia.
If so, then why is their armor still heading south? Perhaps they're
planning to withdraw by way of Tibilisi.
o o o
North
Texas school district will let teachers carry guns. Why isn't this already
the norm, across the nation? It makes sense to me. OBTW, Naish Piazza of Front
Siight is offering free
firearms training to the teachers and administrators
from that school district. The Four Day Defensive Handgun Course mentioned
is the same one that The Memsahib and I took, and the same course that
is
included
with
Front Sight's current
"Guns and Gear " offer. Take advantage of it!
o o o
Bob at Ready Made Resources mentioned that they have added Jaffrey's
Fruit Presses to their product line. With harvest season in full swing
here in the northern hemisphere, this is an important tool to own.
o o o
Fay
prompts tropical storm warning for South Florida. I trust that that SurvivalBlog
readers in the southeastern US are far better prepared than most of their neighbors.
You'll be in our prayers.
