Coronavirus

You call it a crutch but in cross winds to an unfamiliar driver the Cobra Fins+ JBP LTE, totally unsupported and high risk combination I have is absolute power. And seeing the bubbles on the side on hard reverse is pretty cool.


No reason to fight over this, everyone already knows which the very best choice is...we just need to answer Yes to the question, and not share what that answer is!

A resounding yes, then.... (So what IS the answer?)

2 Trillion dollars, I feel sorry for my kids, grand kids and great grand kids and not because of Corona but because of our poor economic habits,

fight corona with TV and LT! wait... oh shit. I'm delirious. Rona, that you?

 

[Beachbummer]

A resounding yes, then.... (So what IS the answer?)

Well, in this introspective moment, I feel empowered to answer. The right answer is whatever you like best. The correct choice is the system that works for you and achieves the desired features you wish for, at the price point you like.

I'll bite Mostly because I'm tired of the doom and gloom Why are you letting an experienced driver control your boat in high cross winds ...SO, to answer the question.....YES!!

In more pandemic related news.....Here's a neat article on why we're all buying copious amounts of stuff we don't need (TP, or Ammo, take your pick)

This is why everyone is hoarding toilet paper

A consumer behavior researcher explains why toilet paper shelves are bare.

Spoiler alert, it's not MSM's fault.....at least not directly.

Maybe I'm the 20+ years of inexperience driver docking single handed against the wind....Thankful that I have the crutch, I mean the help, of the LTE+FINs... how about THAT!

I'm having to try my best to stay in the shop where there's nothing but water in the fridge. I bet I've gained 10lbs. When I'm bored I want salty snacks. After salty I need sweet to even it out. Then I feel bad for snacking so much and snack some more.

Well, can't argue with that.....other than to say you need more practice

Clearly the answer was Yes of course.

In lighter news we got our federal tax returns today. Woohoo! Too bad can't do anything with it until all this blows over. Just glad it came in fast like it always does as we were wondering if there would be a delay. Of course the state always drags their slow ass to get my return.

Also in more lighter news I'm down to 224 lbs from 235 lbs since the 14th. Also have cut my cigarette smoking to one cigarette a day vs a pack! Unreal!! Take that Rona!!

Were still working here but no more community snacks so the struggle is real

Corona virus is coming, you can't be trusted to buy firearms or ammunition or even give them to your neighbor,

Champaign, IL is a college town so if it's like my neighbor Denton, TX with the Univ. N. Texas it doesn't surprise me to much a city council would do this,

Doing a little background reading on this, supposedly these were emergency powers already written into their ?bylaws?, they just felt the need to vote them into the record, they are currently NOT prohibiting the sale of firearms, gasoline or alcohol but at a moments notice the mayor could enact them when she felt necessary,
even though it will probably be deemed unconstitutional from previous rulings
in. Bateman v. Perdue, a 2012 federal district court case from North Carolina struck down certain North Carolina statutes related to guns in emergencies:

City of Champaign - Document Portal

, an ordinance has passed in Champaign, IL, to empower the mayor to “[o]rder the discontinuance of selling, distributing, dispensing or giving away of … firearms or ammunition of any character whatsoever.”

This is steroids to the panic buying,



.

Our county now has a stay at home order, it does specifically state retail firearm stores can remain open along with the vague litany of other essential businesses, I'm actually surprised and will have to see if the city put out anything contradictory,

on another note, the city of Lubbock issued their notice and closed gun transactions, which a local state senator has now asked the Lt. Gov. to clarify as Texas has a law that prohibits blocking sale/transfer of firearms within the state,

Are gun retailers essential? Some question whether shops can be shut down during shelter in place

AUSTIN — Guns are a necessity for some, but are they essential business? One state lawmaker is asking Attorney General Ken Paxton to determine just that:...

Well, Pinellas County is under Shelter at Home restrictions. However, my boss promptly sent me papers as I'm considered an essential employee just in case I have to go in. Luckily (for now) I can work from home.

Our weather is finally beautiful here today, so I spent most of it outside doing odds and ends, played a little golf, etc. just trying to stay positive and read less news.... Really the biggest negative is my daughter just decided to make a batch of homemade chocolate chip cookies with pecans. Basically my kryptonite.....

Golf.....now THERE is a perfect sport for ME in terms of social distancing!!!! I'm ALWAYS off deep in the woods on my own!

Those are my favorite as well. My mom used to make them weekly when I was little. Now she only makes them for holidays. I can't get my wife to care about making them, her and my kids don't really like pecans.

Yes weather was absolutely beautiful today. Wisteria vines starting to bloom and I love the smell of them. Unfortunately so are all the damn weeds in my backyard since we stopped paying for lawn care service last year. Guess I have some outdoor chores to do now to clean things up. Grass still hasn’t recovered from The Great Floods of 2020 but hopefully it will snap back soon enough. Soil is still retaining a lot of the water.

Correction, there is a new lingo/catch phrase now. It is "Safer at Home". Hillsborough County (one over from me) is "Safer at Home" along with a curfew from 10pm-5am.
