Anyone that took the People of the Petunia concept from my last post seriously . . . . well, I don’t know what to say about that.
I am, however, abandoning the blog. As I’ve stated before I have way too many things going on in my life, and writing SHTF posts is not at the top of my interest list. I am interested in starting another blog, but it’ll be quite different from this subject matter.
To those of you that criticize my decision to stop posting here you can 1) bite me, and 2) go start your own blog.
To the rest of you, thanks for your support and readership. You can always get your survival fix by visiting other blogs. www.survivalistnews.com is a good place to scan related blog headlines.
Good luck, and happy preparedness!

it’s been a good read. comment in the usual places once in a while, so we know you’re doing ok.
Good Luck with whatever you do dude. Thanks for the prep ideas and the laughs!
I wonder what the ATF, FBI, and MIB is gonna do now….. they’re gonna get real bored real quick.
Thanks for the blog.
Darnit, I was going to join you and follow flowerman. Now you have gone and ruined everything.
Anyway, good luck. It’s been fun.

Yep bored now. MIB signing off
Thank you, Rangerman your gonna be missed,and thank you to who ever put the cheese back on his cracker,lol
Yep, it’s about time to go underground for a lot of people. Drop out, cancel the internet, lose the IP address, destroy your hard drive, and change your home address. If you follow history, total economic collapses usually end up in totalitarian regimes. The soon to be mandatory “Volunteer Youth” will be searching the internet for us all.
Thanks, Ranger Man. I enjoyed it while it lasted!
Best of luck to you, whatever your reasons. I’ll miss your postings.
RangerMan- Best of luck. If I could sell my 40 acres in central Florida, I’d be up there with you, instead of stuck in ‘ain’t got a clue’ Rhode Island. Zegon has got the right idea. Keep in touch and let me know of your new endovers. Greg
Aw sad to hear it, of the “collapse and preparation” blogs you were one of my fave to read. Good luck in the future!
Good luck to you Ranger Man, thanks for the info and best wishes to you and yours! Keep your head down and watch your back!
Greg, talk to me about your 40 acres in Central Florida. Thanks

Damn shame we wont be hearing from you anymore Rangerman! your blog has been the best read i have had in a good long while. hopefully you will occassionally check in! Good luck in your future acivities!
I just feel bad that you left us immediately after obama won, as if to say, “Oh well, no more worries.” that’s pretty transparent and I’m sorry that I ever read this blog. If you just stuck around, you would have more than enough to write about. And although you set yourself up nicely to depart as obama’s poll numbers rose, by saying that you had other interestes lately, deep down you cant get mad at me for writing this, because you know that this is exactly what you planned to do when he won. we would have seen some good postings if mccain won, despite your silly bannables post.
And so, as Rangerman cammos up and prepares for the Final Hunt, we will all miss him. But let’s not let this Wake turn into a funeral. Lets instead celebrate the life we have known – the posts we have loved. Remember when you first read ‘The top ten guns?’, remember thinking ‘I’m gonna build one of those mousetraps, as soon as I can get some mice’, remember kinda being attracted to that cartool lady he used to have on his blog ? I say GATHER AROUND friends. Let us fill our glasses…(A little more, friend, I liked his blog a lot), and let us toast…To Rangerman.
..now, does anyone know if Rangerwoman is going to sell his gear ? I’ve got my eyes on that AR15….and doesn’t Rangerwoman look *good* in Black…….
sorry to hear your packing it in, old man :-)
was having fun playing “where’s rangerman ? ”
best of luck in all your endeavors !
Good bye, Rangerman. I will miss your blog. Good luck with your new endeavors.
ps, I hope you werent totally joking about the N. Idaho trip, its beautiful up there.
I am saddened by this but fully understand. Drop a comment or email once in awhile so we know you are alive.
Thanks for keeping many of us from taking ourselves too seriously. I’ve enjoyed your blog, learned a lot from it and will certainly miss it. Good luck in all your endeavors!
Happy trails, it was fun while it lasted…..
HELP ME OBI-ONE, FOR I AM LOST & CAN’T SEE THE WAY>>>>>>>>
AW! Hell!
Ranger Man, thank you for your insights, your quirky sense of humor, and helping those who needed a push to see the light.
This sucks man. Im going to miss you.
BLAST! Where will we now look for good advice written in such a colorful manner? Good luck, happy hunting, and give us one last post; for old times ;).
RM, good luck!
I hope you’ll keep this one in place, it’s a great place for info/knowledge.
Hey bummer about the news. How long are you gonna leave the site up?
If you’re interested I could host your posts in a special section on my blog, keep the legacy alive.
Anyways sad to see you go but hey “it is what it is”. Life happens. Good luck!
