  1. Isn't that the truth about the Seafood. Man I may go back and buy a truck load of shrimp. I ate about 3# today, how are people not bingeing on this? I'm like Scooby Doo on Scooby snacks!
  2. My 2 cents, I’d wait. Air temp is one factor but so is ground temp. It seems like every time I’ve got rambucksious and planted early in the ground, my plants were stunted for a bit.
  3. This thread, and maybe isolation, has me back (kinda) in the gardening mood. A few years ago I did that straw bale gardening thing. It was phenomenal! I assumed that year two, with the same bales, further decomposition would happen and I would have even better results. The area I used was relatively shaded, but again year 1 was awesome. 7’ tall tomatoes, Okra pods as long as your forearm ( the ones I let go that long, worthless to eat). Yr 2, not as successful. Either the trees grew adding more shade or the 2nd yr bales lost their Mojo. One thing i noticed yr 2, the bales lost moisture nearly immediately. Lots of watering required, or so I thought. So here I am, I’ve got 5 bags of that packaged straw bedding left over from a job I never got past buying supplies for. It’s straw wrapped in a plastic bag and sealed. I put them out tonight, cut slits in the bags and started pouring my high Urea mixture to get decomposition started. Placed them in more full ish, sun and will see what happens. 8’ tomato’s with fruit as big as a bucket? Maybe I’ll paint a mater like a basketball.
  4. I bought a dog from a locksmith buddy of mine a couple years ago. As soon as I got him home, he bolted for the door.
  5. It will be “always have extra condoms”. There’s going to be a plethora of curtain climbers!
  6. They put it back on which I figured wouldn’t happen. Fingers crossed that it holds. No pun intended. Lol
  7. Well it was a PSA so I think the like is acceptable! lol. 51 years to have anything serious, working as a tool maker, welder, firefighter and DIY'er that likes to drink during... I'd say I'm pretty lucky.
  8. Well here is a PSA while we all isolate and work on projects. DON'T put your fingers in the circular saw. Took one off at the first knuckle today and I was making some damn good progress on a shed too! !@%@$%^%!
  9. I wonder if there is anyway to see a chronological, step by step list of which swamp creatures proposed/ added which pork items to this emergency stimulus package? I would love to see this and then advertise the hell out of it. I’m sure this is an elementary level comment, but I’d love to see rules implemented to only allow “clean” bills and single topic bills. I just saw that this package has 100 million for general aviation airports. I’m an aviator but don’t feel like this Bill is where that sort of thing should be “hidden”.
  10. Man I am so, totally with you. I’ve got a 4’x8’ pantry. It’s just the wife and I, ( with the exception that she’s a major coupon’er and the daughters raid the closet weekly) and we don’t need much. Hell this shut down feels like a vaca, and I work from home to start with!
  11. I agree but am only starting to understand my feelings about this. What I feel happening is a total Armageddon type over reaction. We have to have the data to feel safe about anything like, living. But I fear (kinda) that the data will only prove that the reaction was truly NUTZ driving us to potential Armageddon type reactions. Once this train started off the tracks there was honestly no place at all to go except follow the train. I guess my biggest fear is that this exercise may be only data for someone to use it against us in the future.... that is if that isn’t exactly what’s being done now.
  12. Yes the second was a statement. I started with a good direction and scope.... but then AADD kicked in. I’m good at that. Obviously this thing is serious but damn. I guess I would rather hurt for a week or two (maybe even pass), than ruin 10,000 people’s lives to take care of me.... while I’m one of those 10,000.
  13. Couple questions and yes I’m obviously an antagonist. ( is that the correct word?) is it worth money (Yours or mine) to verify you had something 3 months ago yet changes nothing other than knowing? I want every freaking person in the US tested, so we can put a price per person that we’ve spent 2 TRILLION dollars on, And that’s just so far. Courts and insurance companies have a new worth of a person to calculate into their algorithm.
  14. Some wives actually like top..... Oh wait, this should be a thread of its own. My bad..
  15. Such great timing. My current wife and I just finished a conversation about me having a wife that was 24 years younger than I am.
  16. During my many projects, I wanted vegetables, in December in Indiana.
  17. Once I got the house to 90% complete, I needed a change of pace and started a deck with a built in Trampoline for the Grand kids. I currently have this at 98% complete and started a privacy fence that looks like an old west town. I am great at starting projects.
  18. I built my house 3 years ago and like many, got it to 90% before the attention span ran out. I've come back around to finish the master bath recently. I was working in the floor pan for the stand up shower. While sipping some Bourbon as the mud cured, my baby Dachshund decided to try her hand at DIY. She's a helper like that.
  19. FAA has pulled in all of their Field testing people. My check ride got Postponed. And if the flights don't have any more customers on them that what I saw Monday and Tuesday, The airlines would be silly to not cancel dang near every flight anyway.
  20. YOu must have raised him on ex-lax because he is the shit! (sorry, it's a play off of an ancient joke). In all seriousness, that sounds like a good young man.
  21. Finally got the plan for my company just now. Work from home until 16APR2020 unless your job requires you to be in facility. We are a 12,000 person, international company. This applies to everyone EXCEPT China, where 72% of our employees have resumed normal work activities. I work from home already so that doesn't effect me, but most of those 12,000 don't and those required in plant are in the teen's % wise. ouch.
  22. To add to that demo data, I’d like to see bucketed data of the level of symptoms. 1- I feel great 2- I sneezed twice but I actually used too much pepper 3- high temp of 98.9 4- they buried me today ...
  23. "You can't Roller skate in a Buffalo herd, but you can be happy if you've a mind too".
  24. Not sure if anyone has mentioned it or not. If you're ever around Tucson AZ, you must try a Sonoran Hot Dog. What these food trucks can do with a hot dog down there is insane!
  25. If I understand this comment correctly, I think you nailed, the proper perspective of life, perfectly!
