32°, not supposed to change much as the next snow comes in this evening. Got up to 41° yesterday. Made sure all my windshield washer tanks where full and checked my wipers. I might try and get some more of the snow off the roofs today.

I've said it time and time again, It's all about controlling you. Brainwashing you into believing slavery is gone then turning you into a slave because you no longer know what one is.

Well hello from Austria, and from quasi-quarantine due to what some call the "Wuhan-flu".

In Italy (60.5 million people), less than 5 hours by car or motorcycle there are 35713 cases- 4025 have recovered, but 2978 have died.

For people over 65 there's a death rate of approximately 15% of the infected. Sorry, but this is much higher than for the common flu.

Austria (8.8million people) has taken some radical measures- but they seem to help a bit. 2013 infected, 9 recovered and 6 dead,as for now.

And for Italy,their health system is close to being overwhelmed by the number of patients.

Don't panic, but stay safe and uninfected.

Just my 2c

NJTMAN they are just seeing how far they can go before we fight back, social conditioning, I'm still going about my life as normal.

NJTman

you can, I guess because of where you live. I can't, living in the communist Republic of New Jersey. It's too densely populated here, and us sheep have to abide, otherwise we'll be sent into Siberia. I guess ill be on vacation for a while.

A family has lost 4 members just in the last few days. They attribute it to the covid-19 bug.

That's why I could never live somewhere like that within five min I can be out in the woods away from everybody. Gov Jim Justice just closed all the Hatfield McCoy off road trails done him alot of good the outlaw trails are still open and all the little stores that take care of the atv sxs comunity are still open. Gets bad enough I can go hunt my food ramps are just about in season that's some good eating

32°, rained yesterday.
All kinds of bad happening here. Alaska is under lock down. Essential services only, everything else is shut down. Goods are allegedly coming into the state as normal, it's just that no one seems to know where it is going once it gets here. It's not making it to the store shelves.
The company laid off 150, my Part 135 group lost 28. Roughly 25% of our personnel scattered across 8 maintenance facilities. My under staffed department lost 1. And this is the 1st round of cuts per our CEO.

25° this AM. Supposed to have a small storm pass through tonight. 50/50 chance of rain or snow. The wife took the taxes down to be prepared. I think they screwed up. I didn't make $100,000 last year and I shouldn't owe $1,000. I'll have to go through everything and figure out where the mistake is. Got into the storage container yesterday to try and find some missing stuff. Either there was an earthquake or a wild animal was trapped in there. There was a lot of stuff on the floor and other stuff knocked over on the shelves. I found my missing sub woofer and set it up in a corner where the wife can't see it. It sure helped my mushroom music.

Good morning, gang. Been soooo busy I have neglected the gang. Sorry. Your days sound a lot like ours as to outside activities. Still have workers
at the office building and they are almost done. The dance floor was going down over the last 3 days - - now have to stay off of it for 7 days in monitored
temp/humidity control environment. Then it gets sanded and it is ready. We can then finish setting the rest of the overhead lighting, wall plates and
mirrors, trims, touch up painting and plumbing fixtures, handicap, etc. Sure looks different. In a way, this lockdown has helped - - the studio would
have to be closed anyhow and this does not upset the tenant or his patrons. Has worked out well for them in that point, but hard on his employees.

We are hanging tough, not venturing out unless necessary and me to the building. I am taking the time to sort and throw out, touch up paint and polish
and make sure everything looks like new in anticipation of putting the house up for sale. Lots of places we really like for sale but the brokers are
complaining we do not have enough for sale in our subdivision. They come knocking asking if I would be interested in selling it. Soooo, maybe
timing is with us. Hopefully it will go quickly at a good price and we find what we want at a good bargain.

Spring has sprung down here - - flowers everywhere, pollen everywhere (sniff sniff). It was low of 62 last night and due for 81 high today. I did spend
an hour out in the lanai yesterday laying out on the lounge in the sun reading. Very nice, pool was great, gentle fountain keeping me company, Tough.
Y'all stay safe and keep your nose clean. ha ha Crazy time we are in right now - - soooo, be careful.

15°, dark and windy. No spring here.
I pulled out all my pay stubs from last year and I was right, I didn't make that much money. The error must have been a result of the cyber attach. Taxes have already been filed by the tax preparer so once the company straightens things out and reissues corrected W2s I can file an amendment. In the mean time I'm out a grand.

NJTman

Wrong w2 numbers ? Good thing you kept your stubs.

We received a $16,000 tax bill from the feds for a non taxable inheritance. Took a few weeks, but worked it all out. Hopefully you don't get charged by your accountant when they claim you didn't provide the proper docs, like mine did with me.

Found this house the other day. Looks like a great isolation location.


I guess We have seals off our coast. Saw these guys the other day while riding bicycles

Markus, that in my opinion is the way more people should e looking at this problem, not what can they do to make me safe but what can I do to keep others safe.
My hats off to you
