Love and kindness are the very basis of society. If we lose these feelings, society will face tremendous difficulties; the survival of humanity will be endangered. - Dalai Lama
I get a kick out of being an outsider constantly. It allows me to be creative. - Bill Hicks
The status quo sucks. - George Carlin
“If the fool would persist in his folly, he would become wise.” – William Blake

I recently drove my Mustang to Portland, Oregon to demonstrate my survival tactics to a “reporter” and photographer with Willamette Week. It’s a tabloid, and I shouldn’t have trusted them to get my story correct. The nameless reporter didn’t use a voice recorder, and managed to misquote me. The entire article is snarky, and designed to discredit me. Instead, YouTube views are going through the roof!
Here’s the “story,” from wweek.com. I did NOT say the line about killing. I was saying that there may be violence in the streets a few days after supplies run out, and it got twisted into, “there will be killing for five days.” That makes no sense. It was careless reporting, intentionally. They should give back their Pulitzer prize they won so long ago. Reporters better watch how they handle me. Good luck getting an interview now. You better have some credibility, and be a positive person if you’re gonna approach me for a story.
Watch the latest thrifting haul score below. This could be my most profitable purchase ever:
I quit my job. I’ve been working at a GNC, but it’s an unhealthy work environment. The florescent lighting was unbearably bright and annoying. The frequency is harmful. Plus, I was surrounded by a Wi-Fi signal, that I’m sensitive to. All of us should be aware of our surroundings, and be in an environment that is as natural as possible.
Once the weather got nice, and the Sun came out, the customers stopped coming in. They were getting Vitamin D, and fresh air like I should be doing. So that bothered me. I don’t want to develop varicose veins from standing or sitting too much either. Be careful with that my friends. They sure do recall a bunch of products too!
I’m now selling caches. Maybe you’ve seen me on VICELAND’s Abandoned Ep. 5 “Nuclear Waste” with skater Rick McCrank. If you want me to build one for you, just send $75 to me on PayPal here. You’ll get tons of cool items, and lots of value. I will include treasure from my adventures, such as amazing thrift store finds and practical everyday items. Look out for a video about a mystery cache soon. Here’s a practical cache I put together recently:
The struggle is real. On a recent road trip to Terwilliger aka Cougar hot spring East of Eugene, I hit a pot hole in the dark and cracked my oil pan. I have a 1999 Mustang, with a severe leak, so I’m not driving right now. I’m back on foot patrol, and catching buses, as my survival mountain bike was recently stolen also. Pray that I can travel again soon, and get it fixed properly on the cheap. A mechanic wants $650 to do the job, but I have a buddy in mind to help for way less cash. It may take 6 hours of labor, as the engine needs to be lifted and cradled. At least this doesn’t appear to be the end of my ride on the black stallion.
Bug Out Bag and Bicycle – Winter Camping Gear Setup
Dear Survival Journal,
I got a way late start. Was also considering busing to the warming center in Astoria, OR. That’s smart.
Hiking 7 miles ain’t. But I was determined to bog through the uphill swamp: half in the dark. I got turned around at one point where trees fell over the path. I also slipped once, but rehearsed in my head what to do. I threw my 1 gallon water jug, and braced myself. Yup, I carried a heavy water container from Ave. U to The Hiker Cabins on Tillamook Head. My shoulders and arms are torn up. My 110 liter Kelty backpack had to be 70 pounds.
Plus, I was running on a bum sprained ankle…wore a too tight brace…My left shoulder hurt the most. It was so tight. But I had an indica BHO cartridge in my vape pen to finish off. It was charging in my bag on the hike with a portable power bank charger. I brought too much stuff. Like 6 pairs of socks, an umbrella, a dud smoke grenade, and a giant tarp. It’s 11am – dark at 4:25pm. So cold. My hands are numb.

I challenge you to carry a water container wherever you go on the daily! You’ll be healthier, and happier. I do this to stay hydrated, and make sure I’m not too over caffeinated.
BONUS CHALLENGE: DRINK 125 OUNCES OF AGUA EACH DAY.
Plus, try adding lemon juice to your beverage to stimulate your metabolism, improve your digestion, and aid in the detoxification process.
Did you know drinking cold water will burn extra calories for you too? It’s true. Just don’t drink a ton of water at once, because you can die from too much liquid intake.
Thanks for supporting the blog! Make the most of today. Take care of yourself, and each other. Peace, love, and big hugs to you.
Learn about getting food and supplement samples from your local shops at NO COST. I visit health food stores such as GNC, and ask the cashier for freebies, or take items from their basket of product trials. These individual servings will be stored properly in Ziploc bags, and placed in various emergency preparedness kits, plus my Everyday Carry backpack. I have saved tons of money using this method of urban scavenging. You can make your own freebie haul like this with little effort.

Survival Bros finds a used plastic water bottle full of urine in a Safeway parking lot. Have you guys gone to the bathroom this way? I’ve never thrown a refilled container out of my vehicle onto the highway. That’s just wrong. And littering will cost you. Peeing on trees is much more fun. Hug them before you go potty.
Litter weighing five pounds or less is a class C misdemeanor, punishable by a fine up to $500. If between five and 500 pounds, class B misdemeanor punishable by a fine up to $500, imprisonment up to 30 days, or both.
FACT:It takes 450 years for a plastic bottle to decompose.
