To each their own...
Having read
"The Patriots"
"The Founders"
"One Second After"
"Seven Cows ... Darkness and Sorrow"

and seen:
"American Blackout"
and the first 8 episodes of "Jericho" (2006)

I am taking a break from that genre for a while

Very interesting story.
Calling him a hermit is giving him too much credit. A thief, squatter, trespasser, criminal is a more accurate description. He committed over 1000 burglaries or about 40 per year on average. Some survivalist.

Thieves are the worst and should be shot on sight.

I really like the Weekly Standard magazine. Conservative, insightful, conclusive, intelligent national and worldveiw articles and they use words you have to look up. Plus, there is political satire and the parody page. Its like Mad Magazine for adults.

The Saxon Stories by Bernard Cornwell. It's really cool. And I like that there are 10 books for now. I'm on my fifth!
