Puerto Rico Spotlight
Bob Hawkins “The APN Report“ Audio player provided!
Depending on the News outlets, Puerto Rico is either on the receiving end of the a modern day “Berlin Airlift” continuous relief effort, or has been left to die by the Trump Administration. To be sure, the Caribbean Islands including Puerto Rico has really been devastated by Hurricanes, but the picture presented by our mainstream media has been about as clear as muddy flood waters left behind by the storms, or worse, totally supplanted with news of foolish protests by rich Pro Football players.

On this episode of the APN Report we have an important guest. Prepping’s own survival Doctor, Dr. Joe Alton (a.k.a. Dr. Bones) and Nurse Amy join us. Dr. Bones & Nurse Amy are true pioneers in survival medicine, imparting invaluable advice for all who seek self-reliance. We cover ground that will help us get a realistic approach to handling our own health care, while still relying on modern medicine by medical professionals. We intend to face the prospect of aging,with a rational approach, to deal with everyone’s ultimate crisis. 
This weeks show of course will be about Hurricane Irma, another storm that has captured attention of the media & everyone suspected to be in it’s path.
That statement is actually too simple to be accurate, there’s way too many variables that weigh in, but the gist of it rings true… If given a choice of bugging out or bugging in, I’d bug in, knowing I should go.
So with the heat of summer in full swing, it certainly not fitting to dwell too long on one topic or another, it’s just too hot. So lets go back to a potpourri of topics in what is my favorite endeavor… the pursuit of trivia… 
No doubt about it, summer is coming on strong. I don’t know about you but I’m built more for cooler climates… I naturally have a layer of fat that would allow me to backstroke in ice-choked water if I was a seal. That means when the summer heat cranks up I’m not a happy camper unless there’s ice in my glass of tea.

My! How the days fly by! The official start of summer…school’s out, vacation time, hot days, warm nights, the whole “Hot time in the old town” thing. It’s also time for severe weather, as if you haven’t already read the headlines of tornadoes tearing up the mid-west, we’re smack in the middle of Mother Nature’s summertime weather fury. How prepared are you? 
For sake of anything else, I’ve coined a new term describing the situation I’ve been dealing with concerning my hurricane damaged house these last six months. 
No topic seems to draw more fire (sic) from both sides of an issue than the right to keep arms. When it comes to opinionated debate, any discussion involving personal defense can be counted on to be full of passion, since no other topic reaches the core of self-reliance the deepest than the need for self-defense. As Preppers, the ability to defend ones person, family & property is on par to the ability to breathe. 
April Showers bring May Flowers, as well as Thunderstorms. We had a doozy sweep by this week, which put a hurting’ on the local power grid. There were power outages in parts of the county which give inspiration for this episode of the APN Report.
