Another useful site

Figured I’d share a site with you all that I’ve been spending hours on these past few days.

https://www.mainemilitary.com

They have to be the most well-equipped surplus store I’ve ever seen. They have TONS of stuff that is relevant to Z-Day preparation. I could easily spend about $5,000 there in 30 seconds if I wanted to.

Zombies Attack In Texas?

Posted in Outbreak Information at 8:26 AM on January 30th, 2009 by Dicion

So I read this article, here:

http://gear.ign.com/articles/949/949442p1.html

Apparently some folks hacked some road message signs to show some pretty amusing (to some) messages concerning a zombie attack.

A Few things:

- While funny to some, I don’t think joking about Z-Day is a laughing matter at all. Would you joke about any of the following while there was a chance that it was actually happening: a terrorist attack? a school massacre? an impending nuclear strike?

I didn’t think so. Had I seen that sign, I would probably have activated my ALPHA plan and begun bunkering myself in.

Now, what IS funny about that article, is the fact that they called these people “Hackers” and “Computer Experts” and even stated that the sign manufacturer had to be brought in to remove the messages.

Having worked on these signs in the past myself, I can tell you that theyre not hard to change, most DOT’s don’t even change the default password on them. There also is a published way to reset the password to the default pretty easily. So to call someone who has modified these signs a “Hacker” is akin to calling someone who adds a boost gauge to their car a “Tuner”…. more then likely, they were just the ricer equivalent of a hacker, a.k.a. a “Script Kiddie

Survival Guides

Got this link passed to me today. It’s a collection of survivor guides from SurvivorMall.com (I like the site name!)

Anyways, there isn’t a “Z-Day Survival Guide”, but nonetheless, it’s good information.

Also, check out the SurvivorMall.com site, they have a bunch of cool things that could help you prepare for Z-Day.

And no, this is NOT a paid ad. I don’t do that crap. I only post things I actually believe are useful. Ad-blogs can kiss my ass.

Equipment Update

So, I finally got to take my new handgun that I purchased out to the range last week.

I was well impressed.

It definately outshoots me, thats for sure. After putting 200 rounds through it without a single issue, I can also confirm it’s reliability. I also tried the spent cartridge trick mentioned in the review, and just like the reviewer’s, mine fed flawlessly every time.

Also, I got some new grips for it. Check it out.
