I had never noticed him much before, but he is really a decent guy leading in this situation. He just talks in normal tones, explains himself with no political airs. I’m now a fan.

The weather sucked here too yesterday, a day you were happy to be stuck inside, Today is better, I may go outside for some yard work later, just for some physical activity.

We are not shut down yet but if we do here in Tennessee I have plenty. Take it from a guy who is home a lot. I have movies, series, models, model magazines, and can take a drive to see my mother. I don’t get bored.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTrucker Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 A feel good moment is all this! Was just talking to one of my Daughter-in-laws who went shopping after work the day all heck broke loose in the stores! Said the meat dept was cleaned out and a lot of other things she need as she was trying to do their regular shopping for the week. Needed toilet paper but seen the sheves were almost empty and you could not get into the crowded aisle if your life depended on it! She had just turned down the next aisle when she hear someone yell "go long" and she saw a big pack of Cottonell TP sailing through the air! It hit the heating duct and deflected off it and almost landed in her cart! It did end up in her cart too!LOL Hearing that made my day today!LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is most will end the school year doing their work from home. They were having a meeting here with the educators about that .

Ace-Garageguy Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I'm really starting to enjoy this zombie apocalypse thing. Almost no traffic, kinda like it was in this county 40 years ago. And when I went for a 2-mile quickie hike this AM, I only passed two other people. Hooray. The woods are quiet again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other issue, and I'm not trying to be political here so check on these things on your own and form your own opinion on this. My understanding is that the Saudi Royal Family and the members that control their Oil Interests and Russia are kicking dust on each others shoes over the price of oil. We might as well start hording gas since we can't find any TP. That was a thing years ago during the gas shortage in the early to mid '70's. We're seeing a buck and a half for regular and I'm astatic about the price, just can't go anywhere right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterNNL Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) On 3/23 I posted That I was able to buy gas for $ 1.27. Well yesterday I bought it for $ 1.05 at a local Shell station.

If the tree was bad to begin with and it would wreck part of your home, your homeowners insurance wouldn't cover the damages as I found out through my insurance agency.
