Fine tuning of prepping is in the works following the major ice storm in East Texas this past week. Today, a discussion of what we got right and what we got wrong.

A super to the point report today due to being on battery power thanks to the ice storm in East Texas taking out power. It’s a long PDF file in the Focus section, though. And it’s interesting we delves into “free energy”… Because, coincidentally, in part 2 of our series on recovery of lost technology … Read More

As we go over the ChartPack today, ahead of the Fed, one question hovers: Why rally? I mean, WW III threatens and the U.S. has this Budget Problem. Plus, the present administration is less than, um, awe inspiring in its performance. So why rally then? Some thoughts over our Saturday morning review of the week’s … Read More

A look ahead including a longer-range planning view … Read More
A little “mood setting” is in order. Too many years as a rock & roll (and country) newscaster doing mainly mornings, teaches music first, then news. Perhaps “Wrap it Up” by Sam & Dave would work? Or, perhaps, the “Long and Winding Road” would be better? Well, to each their own. For us, Abba is more … Read More
