  3. better than working that’s for sure!

    Now if only the grubbermint will get on with those $1200 per tax paying legal citizen checks we could actually go buy some food!

  5. I was generous and bought 3 copies of animal crossing for the switch.

    So fun times for all I guess…

  6. Pat McManus, author of humor books about his outdoor exploits and growing up in Idaho, once wrote about “Two Man Tent Fever.” In it, he describes the corrosive effects of his forced isolation with a hunting/fishing buddy in their very small tent during bad weather. I’ll never forget: “What is that irritating sound you’re making with your nose!?”

    “What sound? I’m just breathing!”

    McManus swore he could hear the ‘plip, plip, plip’ of his friend’s dandruff shedding.

  7. …Democrats got stompy-footed yesterday in the Senate so they could not do anything and the House is talking about their own bill, all of which is going to tank worldwide financial markets.

    As they intend.

    Democrats will destroy us all if they can’t have power.

    But they will destroy us all if they DO get power as well.

    Sure would be nice if the option to destroy was a two-way street, nicht wahr?

    But everyone seems OK will illegal business closings and being locked in their houses for an indeterminate time for no reason, so I guess THEY don’t have anything to worry about…

    …good luck to all those men and women locked in their houses with their families and no means of income for a month or more. I don’t know about you guys but I personally eat more when I have time to myself in my home, so the groceries go FASTER if I’m not working. I’m blessed (or my wife would tell me that SHE is) by the fact I’m in an Essential Industry so DeWine’s Stormies won’t sniff me too hard at the checkpoints (soon), but others are not so fortunate and likely do not have any income or savings.

    …so for most…Donner party, table for 3, I hear the tap water is a good vintage today, make sure you praise your Democrat masters in your prayers to the State before you drink it, tho, or they’ll be taking that next, for your safety…

  8. …of course, the nice thing about the Democrats starving everyone to death because Hillary isn’t President is that people won’t need toilet paper without anything to shit, so there’s that…

  10. “Democrats will destroy us all if they can’t have power.”

    Destroying us all means they have regained their power, the end result of a successful strategy to neutralize opposition by taking control of it. A strategy that has apparently worked.

    But the Democrats are only the visible part of a much greater power that is using them as a tool for its own purposes.

  11. The weather’s kept me in more than any irrational fear of Wuhan Flu.

    Wet, cloudy, chilly (not really cold ~ 45 F) and the ground’s so soft I can’t get down into the woods to start collecting cord wood.
    Read and smoke a cigar in the greenhouse, but without the Sun, that gets a tad uncomfortable after a couple of hours – so I emerge to torment the geese (just by existing) and doing what can be done.

    Watching the assholes in the Legislature fighting over who can steal the most out of the unprecedented $2 Trillion corrupt-o-matic is exasperating, as is the panic-mongering by the media, but, the Good Lord Willing and the Creek don’t rise, we’ll get through this insanity.

    Courage! America triumphs DESPITE the maggots in politics.

    “But the Democrats are only the visible part of a much greater power that is using them as a tool for its own purposes.”

    …yep.

    Satan.

    Ephesians 6:12

    “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

    …Democrats are just what he’s calling his minions THIS time…

  13. “Courage! America triumphs DESPITE the maggots in politics.”

    …for a time, perhaps. But America will eventually succumb to evil like every OTHER nation, or God’s a liar.

    And God’s no liar.

    “14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

    15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

    16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.”
    Revelation 16:14-16

    …The Whole World.

    America included.

    The strength of Men will fail. Not “might”, not “could”…WILL fail.

    Sin stained men turn to readily to evil, and weak men are too easily led by evil. We may keep evil at bay for a time, but we ULTIMATELY will LOSE of our OWN strength.

    There IS victory, but not in US, in the LORD.

    …and it’s going to get a good deal WORSE before it gets any BETTER.

    …instead of putting up toilet paper and water, perhaps some other things should be put up, and in a more secure place than the crawl space…

    “19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

    20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

    21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also”
    Matthew 6:19-21

    …I do not have it in me to surrender to evil, though, and that may cost ME Heaven. I will most likely die in some pointless side skirmish when they solidify their hold on this nation, or in a hail of bullets during a gun grab. My only hope is to buy my family time to escape and find the Lord when the time comes, as I am not sure I will be able to set my anger aside long enough to to make it to His side myself. That is my failing, though, and not one I counsel others to.

    I, too, am weak, as all are who do not lean fully on the Lord. I do not make excuses for it will not be excused if I cannot set this anger aside. Not from me…and not from anyone else, either.

    I ask the Lord to help me in this, and that is what I recommend everyone do. We CAN NOT WIN otherwise…

  15. First off, Bad Brad that’s one humongous DemocRAT trap. What do you use to bait it? For the dindu nuffins, watermelon, fried chicken and malt liquor, for the beaners Mexican food, for the stoners lots of free munchies and free dope and for the general dumbasses in the democRAT party empty promises and rainbows and unicorns and fairy farts etc. and for the elites jack shit and lots of booze and underage hookers. Abigail Adams, my dad was a huge Pat McManus and had all his books which I inherited from him from when he died 2 years ago, they’re all sitting on my bookshelf. If anyone’s interested I’d probably share them.

    “Look nine months into the future for more babies.”

    …you can bet the Democrats will be there.

    Scissors in hand…

  18. @Abigail and @geoff the aardvark
    I remember reading his stories in Field and Stream and Sports Afield in the 70’s. The best was the story of trying to bring the buck home on the back of his bike.
    I gave them to my Dad in the 80’s as father’s day gifts each year. My Mom gave the complete set to me when he passed away.

  19. Give it another two weeks when people can’t pay their rent/mortgage on April 1st and run out of cash and have to stay inside with their 30 rolls of TP and bag of potatoes and see what hits the fan. The cure is worse than the so called virus.

  22. Unfortunately SNS you may be right, I pray all the newly conceived babies that they won’t fall into the hand of all the democrap ghouls. I almost feel like we’re living under the reign of king Herod who did all he could in order to kill all the baby boys 2 years and under in order to prevent the birth of the Messiah or a new deliverer. It failed for him and will fail for all the pro aborts as well. Which is why I think we are in the midst of not only a natural disaster but a spiritual war as well with the Supreme Court about ready to make a decision to outlaw abortion and kick it back to the states where it belongs. When they decide that all hell will break loose on the left because they will lose their blood sacrifice to Baal.

  25. Even such trifles are important as opening a window and breathing air for several minutes, or devoting three minutes to meditation, or making a list of 10 things in your life for which you are especially grateful. You should also limit the flow of news that you are used to listening to or reading every day.

  27. Well, why everyone is at home acting out the bubble boy, I’ve been trying to live my life as normal as possible. There is still life out there, you just have to find it.
    The rain and cool weather has kept me cooped up more than the Kung Flu.

    Saturday, it was cool, but no rain. Outdoor flea market was open for business and a planned car show was moved to outside city limits and carried on as planned. Of course the brown shirts found out about it and are going to report them to the government because they endangered lives, so they say. It’s like the invasion of the body snatchers with everyone acting like the little boy pointing they’re here.

  28. Spent the weekend gardening and building a hydroponic greenhouse. Love the empty roads and no lines at Home Depot!

    Out here at ChiCom Ground Zero, nursing homes, long-term care facilities and hospitals are getting hit hard with new cases.

  29. I’m on my 5th 1000-piece Charles Wysocki jigsaw puzzle. One takes me about a day and a half. http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=charles+wysocki+puzzles+1000+piece&FORM=HDRSC2

    Otherwise, I’m still meeting w/clients and working. I do not listen to ANY cable news about ANY of this. I listen to the WH coronavirus task force briefings when I’m inclined. I’ve been watching “how to” and documentary vids on YT. Check out the English “Mastercrafts” series hosted by Monty Don on YT; the traditional arts of thatching (roofs), blacksmithing, stained glass, weaving, etc. Fascinating. There’s also a program about saving historic homes and buildings, “Restoration Home.”

    Methinks the Socialists are attempting to invoke a second Great Depression, to usher in Big Government Savior, like FDR.

  36. I would suggest sharing music with your family and see how similar your tastes are.

    My little brother and I had a nice time yesterday listening to Roxy Music, Paul Weller, Peter Gabriel… it made us miss our dad a lot but it was fun. 🙂

    And Jethro, tell your wife that as soon as her character reacts to seeing bees, just run a little bit ahead, grab out your net and turn around quick to catch them. They’re worth a lot of bells if you sell em. 😉

  37. But screwing beats drinking every time. What do you think my young wife and I did a lot of after Mt. St. Helens blew up on Sunday May 18,1980 burying us under a foot or so of volcanic ash and we were alone together pre kids for 5 or 6 days, we had lots and lots of good sex, it was a great week, I lost a lot of games of strip poker and Gin rummy to her that week and 9 months later a mini baby boom with a lot of kids named Ashley.
