Since they closed my favorite watering hole I’ve taken to doing road trips. Fill the F150 with gas, throw in a cooler of beer and put the 60’s on the XM. Just like the old days. And I’m seeing things I never knew exist in my ne k of the woods.

We let the news media make us permanent red forever in 2000. Fox could have stopped it. They are not our friends. Instead, they tried to elect Gore by reporting Florida early.

Huh.

It’s not really the awesome thing I thought it would be.

WTF is shelter-in-place? During the Cold War I had shelter management courses and training. I became a civilian contractor and spent a good part of the 90s out of the country. Did all of the nation’s civilians get their shelter training while I was gone?

LOL

I feel like I’m always trying to hold it back and God forbid I touch the gas slightly more than I meant to.

“This looks like a rolling shut down to me....who’s next?“

That is exactly what this is, designed to keep the panic up. The panic fire will quickly burn out.......unless you add a log to the fire every day or so.

:)

I got pulled over on the Garden State some months back doing well over 100.

the cop looked like he was 9

he probaably thought i was some 18 year old punk

when he saw i was pudgy middle aged man, he wrote the ticket up at 72mph in a 64 zone

if this thing turns into months they’ll never catch me alive!!!

I figure i’m doing somewhere close to 500 HP after exhaust adjustments

I didn’t. You didn’t. Nothing is forever permanent. Take it back. I never let it go.

... It is hard to believe that they let major retailers like cosco, walmert etc, to remain open with their hoards of people in close proximity of each other while they shut down little bars and restaurants though....

Eating and drinking out are"leisure activities," while purchasing basic staples that are absolutely necessary is clearly not. Please do not have a bureaucrat decide the inventory allowed, item by item, to be sold at the remarkably efficient operations like Walmart.
