If anyone need service done at Pony or any other dealers now might be the time. Called Pony today about some recall work for my wife's Scout and she said drop it off anytime and they will get it done right away. She said they are slow to dead for customers. You have to call them for appointments they aren't open for walk in and the store is closed but service is operating 10-5. Don't wait till this shit is over with like everyone else and decided then its time to get their spring work done.

This 5.4.3 auto update screwed up my windows 10 system. I need the older Virb Edit 4.2.3 or maybe the older Virb 270.

It may be my laptop with only 6GB ram. I am not up on this shit. enjoy your Virb's I will be selling both my cameras.

 

I'm running on a old dual core 4GB ram laptop. Seem to work fine just slow as molasses. Took over an hour to export this video and another hour to process it.

VIRBs can be had cheap because there are a crap load of refurbished ones out there for sale. That how I got mine, like $130 delivered and came with everything new ones do. I thought about picking up another one.

If I had to guess, 90% of the mean dog's ive met weighed in at less than 11lbs.

He's bipolar. Most people he's cool with others he is an asshole. No rhyme, reason or warning. Very protective of the wife and kid. He don't give two shits what happens to me.

It's actually pretty funny. My wife's friend has a pit/rot and a German Shepard. When she comes over to our house she always ask "where that little asshole at?, I don't want nothing to do with him, he's the spawn of Satan"

What version VIRB Edit software are you using? Or another program perhaps?

Thanks.

It's the current VIRB Edit for windows on their web site 5.4.3 I believe.

Just trying to give some optimistic outlook based on some numbers. Just keep this as a positive thought and don’t expect it to be true course. 

source : Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington.

Just an estimate. as of now it’s just a guesstimate even since non of the pattern followed any common sense so far. 

The growth of new cases in Ohio has slowed  until last Saturday 3/28 cases in Ohio were growing by 20%+ every day. after that 

Sunday 3/29 - 17.57%
Monday 3/30 - 16.94%
Tuesday 3/31 - 13.76%
Wednesday 4/1 - 15.83%
Thursday 4/2 - 13.94%
Friday 4/3 - 14.13%
Saturday 4/4 - 12.89%
Sunday 4/5 - 8.13%

Based on this these guys revised and saying 

Ohio is now projected to peak in hospitalizations in 2 days, on April 8.

By Sunday, April 26, Ohio is projected to need less than 200 hospital beds across the entire state.

Ohio is projected to have 0 shortages in terms of regular beds or ICU beds.

Ohio is projected to need 223 ventilators, down from the previous projection of 615.

All seems positive,

on ground lvl I can tell you at one point they were making arrangement to convert all the closed of cafeteria sections into make shift wards to cover demands and of course to make lot of money etc, but we never saw the extreme brunt, we never had the tough job to choose who gets to go on the ventilator. Whtr the grandma with sniffles or the young dad with sniffles and large goober. They all got put on ventilator of course for more billing and money is money. 
 

there is an old saying, it’s easier to wake people up when they are sleeping. But when they pretend to be sleeping it’s difficult. 

Thanks for the numbers Doc hope this is true.

I went to Costco this morning for "senior hour" 8:00AM to 9:00AM, felt guilty because you have to be 60 and I'm 62, probably look like 70 years but don't feel it. There was a huge amount of TP, I asked the manager if TP would be available later, he said the hoarders are gone. The war between the hoarders and the TP manufacturers seems to be over and the TP manufacturers won. The plants can make more than the hoarders can store in the homes. The hoarders put up a good fight, but the plants can run round the clock and require very little man power to operate. At least that's the story in CLE. BTW, Costco will not let you return the over bought TP. 

Hasn't made it to the stix yet. Cow town shelves are still mostly bare.

That picnic food looked delicious, BTW.

Just your basic Applebees.Bourbon Bacon Cheese burger, Lime Fiesta Chicken and Spinach artichoke dip. All on the 2 for $22 menu app included. With a couple bottles of Gatorade Zero from Walmart it was a $25 meal.

We must be related.

We all want stuff more when we can't have it. For me it's pizza--a small thin-crust delivered to my front steps "contact-free"--for just over twenty bucks. I've "pulled the trigger" on this three times during each of the three weeks I've been working from home.

As far as personally picking up take-out at a restaurant, is that burger and fries worth risking your life for?

We've only eaten take out twice since this all happened. Once was a Stromboli i picked up at a pick up window, the other time was curb side take out at applebees this weekend for a moto picnic. 

Apparently the zombie apocalypse started in Finland yesterday.

When is TP gate going to end? While out Sunday and stopped at a small town store yesterday to grab a couple forgotten items I looked in the TP isle. I would have bought some if there but the shelves were still bare. We are probably good for a couple more weeks at my house and my old man said he's got a few to spare us, so not a rush for any. But where is it all going? Why are idiots still hoard buying it? I mean people literally have to have rooms and garages full of it by now. Just make zero sense. I don't think I've bought any since early January. We usally buy one of the biggest packs they sell and will last us months between the three of us. I do most of my goings while at work anyway.

To clarify, By decline  I meant % growth of new cases, overall numbers still slow climb. But the onslaught seems to have slowed down 

Wait wut? Ohio Health in Columbus said they expect "The Surge" next week. Telling all the employees to be prepared. 

36 minutes ago, what said:

My first day of respiratory symptoms came with a tiny bit of chest pressure, a sore throat and a cough. The chest pressure was gone after the first day but cough and sore throat persisted. I was also extremely tired off and on, falling asleep at 3 or 4pm and sleeping for 16+ hours. That was week 1. Week 2 I thought I was finally getting better, but that Monday I woke up with pain in my lungs, and a really bad tickle behind my sternum/in my chest, I couldn't stop coughing. That tapered off over about 3 days and the only lingering symptom I have left is the tickle behind my sternum, but it's hardly noticeable at this point.

I've not had a stuffy nose and none of my coughing has produced anything (dry cough). The lung pain felt almost like a cold burning sensation, it was kind of strange. It was deep in my lungs and felt like the entirety of them as well. Can't say I've felt that before. The chest pressure on day 1 felt like I had a cat sitting on my chest. Light pressure, no real difficulty breathing just uncomfortable. If it hadn't gone away by the 2nd day or had gotten any worse I probably would have gone to the hospital. I had chills and night sweats in week 2 as well, though only for the first 2 days when the lung pain was going on.

My symptoms started with digestive issues 2 or 3 days before the onset of respiratory symptoms. I thought maybe I had eaten something that didn't agree with me, but in hindsight I realized that probably wasn't the case.

I never really had a verifiable fever. The highest temperature I got was a 98.8. My average temperature has been between 96.6 and 97.7 degrees. That's taking my temperature 3 times a day since 3/10. I haven't broken 98 degrees since the 98.8 degree reading on day 2 of respiratory symptoms.

As far as exposure goes, I have a few theories. They break down like this:

1. Work - I work in events and come in contact with a lot of people, all the time. I work in highly trafficked areas, all over the place. My co-workers also come in contact with people, fly around a lot and do work in highly trafficked areas like conventions centers, hotels, hostpitals, etc. We all sit very close to one another at our desks with no separation, when we are in the office. We had people flying in and out of NYC the weeks of 3/2 and 3/9. We also had people flying to/from Vegas and Orlando in that same timeframe, with layovers in other airports.
2. The gas station next to my office - The case at the nursing home in Hilliard that has been in the news is right behind the office I work at. The last place I stopped to get gas was at the gas station right next to this nursing home. Staff brought the virus into the nursing home as early as 3/10, they think. I may have used the same gas pump as one of those people.
3. The grocery store, CVS, any other common area I stopped at - these are all high risk areas due to the foot traffic and people's general disregard for hygiene. I wouldn't be surprised if I caught this at the kroger behind my apartment.

Sounds exactly like me back in late Feb. My symptoms only lasted about a week.

No, the fact that it goes bad....gets out of date.

Usually has a sell by date 2 weeks after you buy it. Usually still good for about a week after that date. I'm still working and there is a drive though on my way home that sells milk and bread so that's my back up plan.

Also almond milk keeps for months and it's not bad. I use it in my protein shakes. I get the unsweeten vanilla, pretty close to 1 or 2 percent milk in taste.

Cool story Boy.

Had been 24 days since we had been to the store. Could have gone another week but my old man needed stuff so he and the inlaws made us a list as well as our list and we were off. I must say that was exhausting. We were all dolled up in our mask, gloves, long sleeves, hats and basically covered head to toe and armed with wipes and hand sanitizer. With shopping list from 3 households and 2 more than over flowing carts we spent about $500 at walmart. It was nerve racking trying to keep track of the list and stay clear of other people and try not to touch anything we didn't have to and deal with the ppe not being the most comfortable. Also stopped at Lowes and bought a truck load of mulch and other lawn care stuff that we and my dad wanted, dropped another $200 there. Yes not essential stuff but it will keep the old man busy and not tempt his to go into town to get it himself. Once we got home we wiped every single item with disinfectant before it went into their respective houses. Kicked our shoes in the garage cloths went right into the machine and us in the showers.  I'm telling you shopping has become an event and a true chore. But we should be set for another 3 or 4 weeks and we took every precaution to prevent cross contamination to protect our houses and our parents.

I learned at work once that "gal" is a racist term for black women..... You racist. 

Based on that I guess the answer is "yes I am a racist" . Learned to not argue with people like that. Just agree with them. For some reason the argument empowers them more than just agreeing with them for some reason.

Nice 👍.   Is 715 still flooded above the dam?

The high water flashing lights were off, so I think it was open but usually covered with mud and debris for a week of so after it recedes so I didn't even want to go that way. I'll check it out on my next after work ride maybe some time this week. 

Decided to do my fist ever edited ride video yesterday. I've taken videos in the past but never actually edited and posted any. Thought I'd give it a shot. Lots of mistakes were made but still learning. Here is the ride of me and the wife yesterday. Just a slow cruiser pace.  Sorry about the camera angle at first and the shity music and wind. Uploaded in 1080 60fps not sure if that is over kill or not.

Social distance ride and picnic at the lake. Applebees curb side pick up was great. @JustinNck1 and his gal joined us too but got there after these pics.

Look closer, it is a return of an Apple product.

Seen that but you made the mistake of buying it in the first place. Glad you came to you senses and spent your money on more important quality content.
