I have two of these - I haven't compared them to Kelly's version, but the Feurerstock has a carbide tipped striker, that impresses me.

I've always had sleeping bags in the car when we travel in winter, water filters in a hiking pack, and an elaborate go bag, in case some calamity happens nationwide while we are out of state traveling etc. But I'm not one of those who have a bug out super four wheel drive end of the world vehicle. lol

Yeah you showed me that striker before.... I like the full sized Ferro Cerium rods best... almost all of my packs are basically setup like bug out bags besides my EDC stuff. I keep a 5x7ft tarp in each one.. a small fire starter kit and limited medical supplies and some non parishible snacks on hand

True story - years ago, we were on a cruise in the Caribbean with a bunch of friends, and I ordered frog legs. They came steamed translucent and were joined at the hip, and still had flippers.  I sent them back, but the waiter had trouble hearing me for all the laughing going on at our big table. Gotta fry them. I ate them a lot when I was sending all my paychecks home to my parents during a strike they would have suffered from. If only we had the really big ones like in Louisiana here in Ohio.

The back of the AFB had a couple of lakes. One night, me and a friend were wading out into the swampy part of the one lake, and were catching big frogs, and two security police drove up, and ordered us out of the lake. When we explained and showed them the frogs, those two guys were laughing their asses of and said for us to carry on. They drove off laughing.

this is quickly going to turn into a national emergency. Now why would a seriously corrupt regime want to force it to happen?

I want to put in a pond, and grow cattails and frogs. Maybe some big bluegill. That's some good food right there. At least when the world goes to hell. Fried frog legs and you can eat the entire cattail plant, but you have to make sure it has the brown or green head on the top. Best in spring and early summer.

You guys keep telling yourself that. I'm sure the Germans told themselves lies all the time too.

A young John F. Kennedy filled dozens of pages in what historians believe to be his only diary. In one of the most interesting entries, Kennedy compares Adolf Hitler to a "legend."

After the fall of Nazi Germany in 1945, JFK visited Hitler’s bombed Bavarian Berghof residence and Eagle’s Nest mountain retreat.

FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED TO PRESERVE JFK’S SAILBOAT

After the visit, which was part of his German tour as a Hearst newspaper war correspondent, a 28-year-old Kennedy wrote about his fascination with the dictator, who had just committed suicide four months prior to JFK’s visit.

“He had boundless ambition for his country which rendered him a menace to the peace of the world, but he had a mystery about him in the way he lived and in the manner of his death that will live and grow after him,” he wrote. “He had in him the stuff of which legends are made.”

LOST JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION TAPES ON SALE

Kennedy predicted in his diary that Hitler would “emerge from the hatred that surrounds him now as one of the most significant figures who ever lived.”

The diary is set to be auctioned on April 26 at RR Auction in Boston by Deirdre Henderson, who was JFK’s research assistant when he was a Massachusetts senator.

Kennedy gave Henderson the diary so that she would be informed about his views on foreign policy issues and national security. She addresses his thoughts on Hitler in the auction description.

“When JFK said that Hitler ‘had in him the stuff of which legends are made,’ he was speaking to the mystery surrounding him, not the evil he demonstrated to the world,” she says. “Nowhere in this diary, or in any of his writings, is there any indication of sympathy for Nazi crimes or cause.”

Henderson told People that Kennedy’s interest in Hitler’s legacy could be credited to his education and his lifelong interest in history. She says he was doing his historical research even at the age of 12, when he was reading Churchill’s memoirs of World War I.

“It’s the mystery surrounding Hitler – why did he do what he did? I don’t think anyone will ever know,” she said. “But JFK was analyzing it and saying Hitler was a legend – and Hitler is a legend. But he’s not a good legend. You can’t translate that as meaning he had admiration for him.”

She intends to auction the original manuscript in honor of what would have been Kennedy’s 100th birthday on May 29.

“It’s part of his legacy.”

Where did I say your lord and savior was Hitler? I said he is repeating Hitler's talking points. I have already shown MAGA is a fascist movement. Cheetos has stopped with the half measures and is just straight coping him now and MAGA is loving it.
