My Story

My name is Damian Brindle and I’m what you might call an “survival enthusiast”, at least that’s what I call it.

I’m not an expert with respect to survival and preparedness… nobody can claim that; however, I do have a passion and love of anything and everything related to emergency preparedness.

Boys being boys

I’ve been working at my preparedness journey for several years now… it’s really just a lifestyle for me these days. I enjoy discussing and learning on a daily basis and am active on many blogs; I also enjoying sharing what I’ve found and learn, hence the reason for this website.

I currently enjoy living in the Kansas City metro area (yet hoping to get a bit further away some day) with my wonderfully supportive wife and two very active boys. They are, after all, the entire reason why I do any of this stuff.

I would love to have your feedback in the comments section of any and all posts. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas. You may also choose to follow me via RSS Feed, Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.Thank you for your time.

millenniumfly: Prepping for the disabled is a diffult subject for sure. Thanks for watching, Angie!
millenniumfly: That's a good thought, Pam. Only problem is that people who sell surplus office supplies are usually very proud of their stuff. I wonder what else we could use?
Pam: Wouldn't it be awesome if you could pick up some of those work cubicle dividers for super cheap when somebody was remodeling? But then you have to do something with...
Angie Ringler: thanks for posting the video. It has been a recent topic that noone seems to have much input about. It is good to talk about it.
