Happy Paratus, my peeps!
Yes, once again it is that time of year. The backpacks are left by door with care, in hopes the Long Range Recon Gift Squad will soon be there. The water is on the stove for the freeze dried dinner, a Walking Dead marathon is teed up on the bigscreen, and we’re all wearing our favorite combat boots. It’s a Norman Reedus Rockwell Paratus! ( Made even more poignant by virtue of The Current Situation.)
(Everything you want to know about Paratus is at the world-famous Paratus FAQ)
As has become my habit, gifts and cards were sent to a small group of people…mostly people I know IRL, or over years of email/blogging…. however, if you’ve sent me something by snail mail and used your real return address, or you signed up for Patreon and gave me some contact info, you probably got a card this year.
What was this years card? Why, this little ditty:
If you didn’t get a card this year, it’s pretty easy to get on the hit list…. donate something to the blog through Patreon or snail mail and leave me your mailing address. Or, be someone I associate with in real life who I can actually tolerate. Or send me a card as well.
I hope you all have a happy and renumerative Paratus. Did you get cool gear this year? Did you do something special with your fellow survivalists? Did you get chased out of Cabela’s for raising a fuss when they didn’t offer a Paratus discount? Let’s hear about it in comments.
Sent here by Survivalblog. Found out Ruth Bader Ginsberg just died. RIP, commie. Like your header, with the ruins and all. The allusion to the Night before Christmas poem reminded me of a Tactical Santa I once saw. In Stars and Stripes in Europe, there used to be a comic strip about a soldier in US Army Europe who had to cope with regs and dregs. Tactical Santa came at Christmas of course, and brought all kinds of grenades and ammo and fuel for FTX’s. Back in those days we were waiting for the “new” Abrams tank. Anyway, my BOB is always close at hand, and thanks for the reminder, I’ll go inventory and repack it now. Funny how I always change something when I check it.
So, just in time for Paratus, there are now only 8 SCOTUS justices.
So *when* the election is contested in the court: 4-4
This is a perfect storm, my friends.
Actually it’s more like 5-3 in favor of the Constitution right now.
Let’s hope so. Douchebag RINOs like Roberts can’t be trusted.
Happy Paratus right back at you CZ. I did my part and bought a few things off and in the process of spreading mirth and apocalypse tidings. Tonight I’m settling in to watch Goodbye World and that horrible movie called “Prepper” while I consume a couple Octoberfest beers.
Happy Paratus.
Gave the gift of knowledge to a youngster in the family by teaching how to operate, shoot, clean, strip, and reassemble an AR15. Took to it like a fish to water.
RBD is dead, 2020 may not be that bad after!!!
Serenity Now !
The new motto soon……six to three six to three…..in favor of liberty, oh glory be, six to three…….
