Why are you not outside today!

 

I am not outside because I am working, so my tax money can fund all the unemployed, due to government imposed economic shutdowns.

I need to find one of these before the election.  😜

God, I hope this election is not close.  Whoever wins, hopefully it's decisive enough to reduce the post-elections-bitching.

 

 

 

I don't think it really matters who wins this election.  It's not going to be post-election-bitching.  If Trump wins the dems/anarchists/socialists are going to burn down every major city.  If Biden wins it's going to go to a second civil war.  Sorry to move the prepping thread over into this one for a moment but regardless of who you want to see in office it would be wise to start stocking up on all the things you couldn't buy when the corona first hit us.  I think you are going to see basic needs type items are going to be even harder to attain.

I got the tank, next person in front of a museum.

This thread needs a small injection of humor.

Correlation does not equal causation. The reopening, indoor gatherings and idiots not wearing masks caused it. The protests were outside, MUCH safer than what the freedom crowd is doing.

Stop making excuses for dumbasses.

 

So if your saying the outdoor events are not the cause of the uptick in cases, why are we not reopening state and national parks for people to go hiking by themselves.  beaches are still considered a death sentence to anyone at them and Mid-Ohio Vintage needs to be put back on the schedule because dammit I want to see motorcycle racing again if the outdoor events are safer than eating my dinner while sitting in a restaurant.  😷

And a video of me going slow around Gingermann with it a few years ago. 

Still available, price down to $5,750.  Ask me any questions you may have, glad to answer anything you may want to know about it.  I have it listed on FB as well.

Sounds like they are collecting taxes now too on the local businesses. Kind of a Mafia protection fee according to some sources.

It's not just "some" sources, Fox is reporting armed extortion's.

I was thinking it's open season on idiots.  If it's a foreign country they can be shot dead and it wasn't committed on US soil you can't be charged with a crime.  I have a feeling that this revolt would end very quickly as soon as they realize the police can't be charged or if they come up against active US military personnel.

I bought one, haven't had a chance to use it yet.  Build quality initially seems good enough.  Will have to let you know once it's hooked to a hose and see how it works.

State park entrance sign

 

I went past old man's cave earlier today and they still have the parking lots closed and the gates locked.  Never thought to take a picture or I could have had this one.  

Yep, textiles go in the bath tub and get washed with regular laundry soap.  Hang them up to dry and before wearing again I run a can of Coleman tent waterproofing spray over them to help keep them rain resistant.

My YTD is still slightly negative on my retirement plan but if you sort by 1 calendar year I am still ahead of the game and still earning way more than gov bonds or anything short term that my bank offers.  I'm still playing the long game and hopefully going to see good returns on everything purchased during this last few months as things recover.
