Stainless Steel Eye Screws

These Stainless Steel Eye Screws are worth there weight in gold. Need to hang something up in the wilderness? These Stainless Steel Eye Screws are just the thing you need. They easily screw into trees and the sides of buildings. That gives you the ability to hang stuff. Maybe you need to string some game up to butcher it? Or keep gear close to the doors or windows where you might need it. I also love them to hang lights.

Those uses are mostly pre Apocalypse though. Post Apocalypse I love these Eye Screws for a bunch of different reasons. The first is basic security. With some line and a few household objects you can create a trip line that will make noise. That is handy if you don’t have 100% control over the area you are sleeping. These Eye Screws are also perfect to make other types of traps. Those could be more benign trip lines or more deadly traps if the situation warrants lethal force.

Once the shelves are empty and the survivors have picked over what’s left, you better be ready for scavengers trying to take what you have. It is just how the world works.

Someone asked me why I put these in the Survival Technology Gear category. The answer is pretty simple. Try making one of these by hand with nothing but a fire and some hammers.

Stainless Steel Eye Screws Scoring

Stainless Steel Eye Screws can have a Low Impact on your survival and score 105/1000.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • The advantage of an eye screw is that it allows things to hang from it and takes little time to install
  • May be used to attach two things together, hang medium-weight applications and hook cables together for supporting objects
  • Stainless Steel is rust and water resistant for marine, bath and outdoor applications. Does not stain or corrode as easily as ordinary steel

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, Season 1, Episode 2

Alouette opens with Isabelle, played by Clémence Poésy, as she experiences the infection as it hits Paris. Apparently she wasn’t always involved with the nunnery. She hears random screams as she is leaving a coke fueled party, and sees the beginning of the end as she walks to the subway. The gravity of the situation doesn’t hit her until the subway car rolls bye and she sees the violence up close.

Paris Falls

Isabelle almost buys it in those first crazy minutes but is lucky enough to get saved before the chaos on the streets can take her life.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon

After she is rescued, Isabelle goes to her apartment to get a few things. While leaving her apartment we see her tell a little girl to go back to her apartment and lock the door. Isabelle tells the little girl that her mother will be back soon. Isabelle knows how badly Paris is right? It felt like she was blowing the kid off because it was easier to leave the kid behind, than take her.

Alouette Scoring

Alouette scores 75/100. Once again the Zombies aren’t the main focus of the episode. The other major issue was how Laurent is born. It feels like a not so subtle or elegant rip off of The Last of Us. The production values are top notch – I just hope the story is going to end up being the same quality level.

Spoilers Below:

The episode tells the back story of how Laurent was born. Isabelle’s sister was pregnant when the outbreak started. The two of them found shelter at the nunnery, where Isabelle was sworn to protect her sisters child.

The rest of the episode of Daryl playing commando to go raid a local hoarder’s palace. Team Daryl needs a horse for their cart. The feral kid colony needs supplies.

The Good

  • I love how the mule can sense the walkers ahead and refuses to go down the road.
  • Father Daryl. Do I need to say more?
  • How Isabelle leaves her male friend behind when it comes down to her sister or the dude.

The Bad

  • The feral kid camp. Its been done in so many other series. It feels worn out.

Speakeasy Door Grill With Viewing Door

I just love the way these Speakeasy Doors look and love the security they provide. I’m currently trying to get my wife to let me make a basement bar in our future house, and I totally plan on putting one of these on the entry door to I can keep the riff raff out.

So for those quick trades, or just to get a look at who is really at your door from behind a few inches of security door, this Speakeasy Door Grill is just what you need!

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, Season 1, Episode 1

Deux Amours is the premier episode of the new TWD spin off. Normal Reedus takes his beloved character, Daryl Dixon, on a European adventure. How does he get to France? Apparently Daryl was on a French cargo ship. What was the cargo? This is The Walking Dead – so of course the cargo was Zombie test subjects. After the cargo ship meets a catastrophic end, Daryl ends up on a lifeboat, drifting across the Gulf of Cadiz before washing up on shore.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon

After scavenging for a bit Daryl comes across his first French Walkers. They aren’t quite the same as the walkers in the states.

First Kill

Apparently the French Zombies exude some kind of caustic or acid. You can see the way Daryl screams and his flesh smokes when walker grabs him.

As usual, the walkers aren’t the most dangerous things around. People are the thing you really need to watch out for in The Walking Dead universe. After saving Maribelle from being raped she lets her companion bash Daryl over the head. Thankfully for Daryl he is rescued and taken to a nunnery. Double lucky for Daryl, they know how to treat his acid walker wounds! We also learn that these “Burners” are just one of the walker variants out there.

Deux Amours Scoring

Deux Amours has the production values you would expect from a spin off like this. The acting, dialogue and special effects are all top tier. Scoring this premiere episode was really hard. I wanted to like it. I wanted to love it – so I need to be careful that my enthusiasm didn’t impact my objectivity.

Deux Amours scores a 90/100, making it Worth Your Time.

What cost it points? The Laurent storyline seems dangerously close to being a rip off of The Last of Us. His mother died in birth, he’s special. I really hope they put a different twist on that in the coming episodes. The other reason it lost points was how fast we transitioned from Zombies being the main enemy to the militant human faction.

Rungu Club

When it comes to Self Defense, this Rungu Club is just the thing you need! It is strong and won’t get lodged in skulls as it has rounded edges. Sure, firearms are great, but they eventually run out of ammo. It is also hard to store a firearm everywhere you might want one. There is no way my work would let me put a firearm in a display case. I can throw this Rungu Club into my umbrella stand and no one notices. If I really want to class it up I can put it in a display case and make up whatever story I want about how I got it.

This is also a great home defense weapon. I really don’t like firearms for home defense for one basic reason – if you make a mistake someone is likely to die. On the other hand, I can club you a few times by mistake and you will likely still be okay after your broken bones heal. I have three adult sons. Harming one of them by accident if they come over unexpectedly is a nightmare of mine. Thus I save firearms for when I know deadly force is justified.

Rungu Club Scoring

This Rungu Club can have a High Impact on your survival and scores 534/1000.

iZombie , Season 2, Episode 14

Eternal Sunshine of the Caffeinated Mind begins with some bad news. The Tainted Utopium in the stomachs of the bodies was destroyed by stomach acid. The good news, the drugs hidden in one of the corpes had the drugs in his, and I quote, “prison wallet”. Ravi has a way with words.

Dug U Fresh
Dug U Fresh

Ravi is in a coffee shop when our murder happens. A happy and bubbly coffee shop owner who goes out to the sidewalk to get killed by a falling window air conditioner unit. Liv makes some Brain Breakfast Treats. Ravi, understandably doesn’t want any.

Brain Breakfast Treats

The victim’s brains are happy and bubbly. Liv is living high on positivity as her and Major start to track down the air conditioner killer.

Eternal Sunshine of the Caffeinated Mind Scoring

Eternal Sunshine of the Caffeinated Mind tells the tale of two rival lovers turned coffee shop competitors. Stan, played by the amazing Oscar Nuñez of The Office (US Version) fame, was our victims lover, and coffee competition.

This episode scores a 69/100, making it a perfect episode for a Rainy Day. Why? While Liv plays happy and bubbly amazingly, its not quite as compelling as what happens when she’s on more troublesome brains.

Bulk 55-60 Gallon Trash Bags

I keep some of these Bulk 55-60 Gallon Trash Bags in my vehicle at all times. You just never know when you might need a makeshift raincoat or find a deer that would make a great donation. Over the years I’ve given warm roadkill to friend, family, and a food pantry. If its cold or to damaged to butcher, wolf preserves will usually still take it. If you have one nearby, give them a call and find. No use letting good meat go to waste.

I also take them with me whenever I go hunting. Who wants to eat meat after the flies have been all over it? Or worse yet, who wants to leave a blood trail behind them while they are humping their kill out of the woods?

You should also keep some Trash Bags with your camping gear, because whatever you don’t burn, you should carry out with you. I also try and fill a Trash Bag up wherever I camp, because there are just some people who shouldn’t be allowed in the woods out there.

How many ways can you think of to use these Trash Bags? On the personal care side, they make setting up a bucket latrine so much easier. Same if you’ve got to vomit. When I was younger that was the most likely use for these in my vehicle. Because someone was going to have to throw up.

Post Apocalypse, all those uses are still valid. Some of them just get multiplied. When other survivors go feral because they weren’t prepared, these Trash Bags will be worth their weight in gold. You don’t want to leave anything behind you that the scavengers can use to track you. Carry all your waste with you and don’t leave anything behind that could be used to track you!

Bulk 55-60 Gallon Trash Bags Scoring

These Bulk 55-60 Gallon Trash Bags can have a Low Impact on your survival and score 173/1000.

iZombie , Season 2, Episode 13

The Whopper has Major and Ravi finding a body. They think it is going to give them the materials needed to perfect the Zombie Cure, but it finds out its just some other poor thug. At least until Liv makes a brains burger and the dead man’s memories lead them to the correct body. Eventually.

Brains Burger

There were a lot of great scenes in The Whopper. One of my favorites was the dead man’s last romantic conquests. Her reactions were just perfect.

D*ck Never Called Me Again

If you aren’t a regular fan of iZombie the premise is simple. Zombie are real, and Liv uses her position in the medical examiners office to kill two birds with one stone. She has to eat, or she will devolve into a raging, brain hungry beast. The second bird is her desire to go the right thing. Because she gets flashes of her meals memories, it gives her the ability to help the police solve what might otherwise be unsolvable cases.

The Whopper Scoring

The Whopper hit on so many fronts. There is an awesome sub story with Major, another with Blane, and as always Rose McIver plays Liv and her brain dependent emotional state to perfection. Which is why The Whopper is Worth Your Time and scores an 85/100.

Jerky Seasoning Kit

Being able to preserve food will be the defining skill that leaves some people starving, while others thrive. With this Jerky Seasoning Kit you can turn your game into Jerky and help keep it shelf stable for longer. That will be important when hunting provides your protein and a freezer is a luxury. Sure, you might be one of the few with enough solar to power a freezer, but for most of us that isn’t realistic. That means planning ahead so you can create tasty Jerky.

Each one of these kits can be used to make 20lbs of muscle meat. The yield drops a bit if you grind it, but I don’t plan on grinding, so it doesn’t matter to me. Most regular deer in my area net you about 60lbs of boneless meat. That makes the math super easy. if I want to convert a whole deer into jerky I need 3 Kits to get the job done.

Here is my recommendation on how to use. Don’t wait until the grocery stores are overrun and the shelves stripped bare. Start to practice cutting strips, and figuring out the right size/thickness of the cuts to make good Jerky now. Once you have that done, try to use a wood smoker/grill to get the same results.

iZombie , Season 2, Episode 12

Physician, Heal Thy Selfie has a nice twist right from the start. The basic premise of the show is that Liv will eat the brains of murder victims, which results in her seeing flashes of the victims life. She partners with Clive, a police detective, and pretends that she is a psychic. Because Clive can’t handle Zombies. What happens if there is a crime but the heads aren’t on the bodies? It kind of limits how effective Liv can be.

Brain Trust

On top of that, she is still seeing her Zombie Bouncer hook up. I’m not going to call the dude her boyfriend. He has skeletons in his closet, and he works for Blain. Sure, he is being coerced with brains, but I still don’t like the guy.

With no heads, and thus no brains, but still needing to eat, Liv gets stuck eating a pathological liars brains. She made some lovely sushi out of it.

Brain Sushi

Worse, Liv’s new personality also can’t stay off her phone!

Physician, Heal Thy Selfie Scoring

Physician, Heal Thy Selfie had some highs and progresses the story along decently. My favorite scenes in the episode were actually the start of what I think is a love story between Ravi and Peyton? Still, I felt like this episode was just missing something. It scores a 70/100, making it Worth Your Time, but just barely.
