Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[hamish]

Anyone still not taking covid-19 seriously?
- state of emergency declared in San Fran'
-CDC says when not if pandemic declared
-Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria record first or more cases
-Iran has been lying about it - even their deputy health minister has it

-watch them try to monkey hammer gold and silver futures down but expect physical to break out.
-watch bond yields plummet and all manner of financial chaos - the retreating tide will expose those who have been swimming naked for too long now.
-stock mkt is gonna suffer as everyone realises there's a year or so before a vaccine is available and supply lines are breaking down already - Can't prop this shell game up with unlimited 'not QE' without consequences now that the global markets aren't going to be able to soak up and take away the inflationary pressures
-all those pension funds that were tragically reliant on stock gains or already underwater are going to puke
-good luck getting your prescription meds people

I hope we are still around and able to have that beer with Haywire in 6 months...

PPPssssst turn of your tv, radio and social media, all will be fine. Go cut some wood and get over it.

It's not a civilisation killer. It is a killer, it will prick the ludicrous bubbles and expose the absurdly weak systems devoid of redundancy that have not been dealt with adequately by our generations. The consequential damages/losses and deaths will be significant. Prepare or mock, makes no difference to me. None at all.

Had H1N1 a few years ago I thought I was gonna die. Secondary infection left me with white scar tissue in my eyes giving me "moon eyes". Worked with the general public at the time. Don't think my hermit ways aren't gonna change for a few months. See what spring brings.

I feel for you guys, but I'm not on any medications and I plan to keep it that way!

But I will say, every time I go to a Doc's office and they ask what medications I'm on and I reply "NONE", they look at me like I'm from Mars!

What's a doctor's office?

Ah well, may as well go cut some wood.

Looks like Italian coronovirus infection has spread to several places in Europe and to Brazil.

I hear ya.

They are pill pushers programmed to pump us full of symptom hiding meds. Its all about MONEY.

Not all are like this. But most

Iv never been on meds in my life, not even an antibiotic or prescription pain killer. Im lucky.

According to the local news,"Snowmageddon" is on its way. I'll just be burning firewood with the satisfaction that my efforts are keeping my family warm.

My wife works at a day care and takes my son with her everyday and my daughter is in elementary school. We had some nasty stuff come through the house this year. Flu B (the one the vaccine doesn't work for also the bad one this year) strep multiple times, pneumonia. I haven't gotten any of it yet. Don't know if its genetic, could be most of my family doesn't get sick often either.
Can't have pain meds as I know were that leads for me and I won't go down that rabbit hole again. 800mg ibuprofen is the only prescription I'll let them write for pain. Most doctors are happy when you admit to your past and refuse narcotic pain meds.

I think I only used the plow on my ATV 3 X this year, and it rained yesterday. Once or twice was back in Nov!!!

Good thing I'm buried with Tax Work, the ground is real soft.

I guess we better hope for Spring rain for the reservoirs to make up for the lack of snow melt.

Very nice.
Go Honda .
Does that have the 680 in it.

Yep, I hope it is as reliable as the other Honda’s I’ve had. Gonna put that baby to use, been bringing home wood with a 2wheel trx300, you talk about inefficiency.

Drove all across the horse pastures to park, then did sporting clays with my Rem 870 purchased new in 1970. (1st gun I was able to purchase w/o bringing a parent with me, usually my Mom came with me to buy them because my Dad was always working).

Proud of you for admitting that, your not the only one that has been down that hole.

They've been releasing water from the ashokan an rhodout last few weeks . Water is higher than I've seen in years and no ice on the reservoirs at all. Not much snow but we've had a lot of rain this winter. My systurn is gushing out the overflow. My water comes from an artisan spring from the side of the mountain. Only pump is from the systurn to my water tank .
