post-peak's indispensible necessities

Farmer Scrub | We've just completed one full year of weighing and recording everything we harvest from the yard. I've uploaded a snapshot of the one year harvest so it's archived even as I update the regular harvest log. We harvested on average each day two pounds of food, providing 675 calories. As far as our goal of self sufficiency is concerned, that means we could choose between feeding less than half of Tulsi (who requires 1500 calories per day) or barely feed one third of me (2000 per day).

I last blogged about the harvest log in September.

University of Texas Endowment took physical possession of just under a billion dollars worth of gold bullion.

Weimar America is gonna be something else...,

The bullion is being held in a vault in a NYC bank, and I've read some comments where some Texans want it transported to Texas with all due haste lest the apocalypse arrive and the gold is stuck in New York. They seem ready for secession.

You know me BB, been ready for the apocalypse for the last 10 years and have spent the better part of that time promoting change awareness.

Did I miss something in the MSM or in the general quorum sensing flux that now accounts for folk like these texans or our boy Cobb finally starting to react?

The gun and ammo frenzy began November 2008, but I think the last 3 weeks of gas hikes coupled with rising food prices have kind of crystallized the real state of the union.
