  1. This sentence highlights what i meant, simply the path of least resistance is people making their decisions base more so on safest possible than "is this necessary". That can certainly be debated...my point was just that "is this necessary" sort of takes a back seat once once someone makes the first decision to close , bc then there is pressure for other to follow due to perception of not. To close resorts is one thing ..to close the outdoor hiking up a mountain on your own and skiing down is asinine and exhibit A.
  2. Ran into my buddy at grocery store yesterday . He works at Ken Jones Ski mart in Manchester . Believe he said they begin getting ski’s resdy today. He was curious if the shop was going to cut the season ski passes they give employees . He was talking about a giant supply disruption from manufacturers regarding new skis for this upcoming season. I was mentioning to him about NH needing a big natural snow year bc I just don’t see how they will go forward w regular snow making plans . They may say otherwise now , but the reality of the situation is ...politically correct panic lurks right below the surface . What I mean is as soon as Flu season gets underway , and people in public actually produce symptoms consistent w Covid (they aren’t necessarily distinguishable) that every single flu sniffle and cough will be met w a different sort of level of concern (that will surprise people) and this on top of the current backdrop will result in doing everything to be safe , especially with the hope that a vaccine is around the corner (in spring ) , That will probably mean whoever shuts down the most will appear to be doing the best job to be “safe”. The media will play its usual role to not miss a opportunity to “inform/ frighten” people and enhance this response. The stage is more than set. .02 cents I certainly could be wrong , In particular if the country is seeing falling Covid cases from a decently low point that would be very helpful as flu season kicks in, that would be my big hope for people’s health and businesses.
  3. He’s obviously competitive and pretty dang good. He also ( I would guess) may have a mental hurdle or glitch of confidence when he picks up the driver ? and it had cost him enough in his overall score to can it .
  4. Just shot a 29 on back 9 at Augusta to finish with a 63. Tiger woods golf boom!
  5. Played North Course in June. So no lol
  6. Grey area of performance Enhancers
  7. Crushed a 335 drive last nite (as Rory Mccllroy) on X box . Felt great
  8. And the lucky finish . Didn’t know how to fit them all on one post. You can see the ball Against the blue sky above the “C” a little higher than my head .Ok I’m done !
  9. Not to take up the thread but it’s not far from my drive -swing on Golf course . I have to be in the zone otherwise there isn’t much room for error as I nearly leave my feet as I rotate thru ball and yes this somehow went straight
  10. I can carry 300 on my best ...this is Almost exclusive to driving range where I really get a good hip rotation and accelerate my hips thru ball. My friend took a cool slow mo vid of my swing on one of those drives and I was somewhat lucky it went straight. I also love to do the sort of of one step Happy Gilmore / David Ortiz like Home run swing at the range , it’s just fun lol
  11. Old Scotland links in Bridgwater I went our w my Gf and her son and the first hole was frightening even with 2 carts . So I suggested we switch to best ball and that did the job.
  12. Played Stow Country club (Mass) 9 holes. My favorite golf weather . Mid 60’s and dry with a breeze Course was decent
  13. His swing didn’t have That disaster mid swing stop/hitch , but his drive off the T with a shorter more compact swing was a utter disaster on that hole The 9 in New market were a blast ..we played best ball and just had fun. A few of my drives cleared 300. In a best ball I’m useful off the T , otherwise hit and miss ..depending on competition level. There was a tournament I played in couple years ago in that area (I got the longest drive and not much else lol) , the driving range went to 250 and then there was a big net behind that ..and behind that was a small parking lot followed by a police station w what sounded like a tin roof (when hit ) . That was a blast . Definitely going out again soon to play another Round. Golf may just turn out to be the most popular sport this summer
  14. Some cold 925’s must be moving in quickly snowing thru Lebanon and now back thru Grantham it’s a white out and 31 @ 1250’
  15. Vermont tech college was last stop love that spot my friends dad used to be president 1400’ snow was drier than I anticipated
  16. I saw them as a less desirable area . Especially at 1400’ and sorta in between best precipitation lm near Grantham at 1250’ and it’s 37 and light snow (surprise to see flakes was about to head up to 1750’)
  17. 39F 1400’ Somewhere on I-89 about 8 miles past New London
  18. "finalizing still" this will have some headline impact and seems that leveraged liquidity will flow SOMEWHERE my guess is not to stocks for more than maybe a day or two pop ...given earnings/demand hasn't changed as we aren't going back to work.

    Would that boost.....Bonds/ Gold ?
