  1. Back in 2018, there was plenty of sanitizer. I got the flu that January, probably from stayin out too long during a particularly long jebwalk, in 8 degree weather. So, I panicked and bought plenty of sanitizer! Now I have some but I am still trying to find more!
  2. I dont take a chance. It's already summer hot down here, but I wear the mask. I'd rather wear a hot mask for a while, then catch COVID then end up on one of those ventilators for weeks............... I am carrying around a bottle of hand sanitizer too. Can't hurt to keep putting it on my hands when in public. Just think about how many people touch a fueling nozzle at the gas station. I sanitize my hands a LOT!!!!!!!! I'll happily gamble with my money about a year from now when COVID is gone. But I WON'T gamble with my LIFE!
  3. These are definitely very concerning times. I have a good mask (but not an N 95 though) and a lot of hand sanitizer. I am definitely distancing. I have a feeling we are going to be doing this for quite a while as we try to slow the spread. I hope your friend in MD stays safe. Those Bluebonnets are nice! I got a ton of em right in my own yard down here! Enjoy them on your road trip! Be very very careful!
  4. I figured West Texas would be in very good shape. I am in Hays County. You can bet I am staying far the hell away from Austin. I probably wont go back into Austin, until mid 2021. Hays is in good shape too, though not as good as in western TX.
  5. Does huffin' Nitrous back in high school count?
  6. This will take your mind of of COVID 19. Imagine how terrible it would be if you were stuck in this situation!
  7. I just shudder to think what would happen in this country if there was a second wave. Do you think we could stand another wave of Mitigation? I can. I'll never get bored with all the chores I have every day. But what about everyone else?
  8. You are never, ever gonna get this virus. Corona would have to be crazy to mess with you lol.
  9. We ARE gonna die. You're gonna die. I'm gonna die. We're all gonna die. Just not today. We are gonna kick Coronavirus's azz. Its gonna take us awhile, but we ARE gonna win! We will prevail, and this too shall pass.
  10. Really pleasant day today in Central Texas, topped out at 90 degrees with a dewpoint of 73! Felt kind of like 96, lol. Normal high/low is 76/55. We are getting a kind of early start to summer down here lol.
  11. We all need a laugh in these times! This track got played in HEB today! HEB in Texas is kind of like Giant Food in Dale City Va. You can add this to your Quarantine Playlist!
  12. IF WE STICK TO DILIGENT MITIGATION, as we have been doing, I think this could trend even better, with respect to even less mortality.
  13. I do wear a mask when going out for groceries and I carry a big bottle of pharmacy grade hand sanitizer. I keep 6-10 feet from everyone. I aint takin NO chances. NO effin' way I am ever gonna get COVID 19!
  14. One thing about livin on 6 acres in Central Texas is I keep plenty busy. Mowing grass, its already spring down here big time, 62 dewpoints. Feedin the miniature donkeys, cats, puppies, cleaning the house, disinfecting the touchpoints all over, sweeping all the oak leaves all the time, work work work! Sure I'm "quarantined" but I dont get to sit around and "enjoy" it like so many folks. Gotta keep busy and work is life down here in the Deep South LOL! I keep an eye on the news but I dont let it bother me too much, I keep busy and I am damn GLAD I dont live in New York City.
  15. Someone needs to get a fvckin' whip and make those lazy GM workers work harder! We NEED those damned VENTILATORS! Whip em until they build 500,000 ventilators! Torture 'em if you have to! Extreme circumstances demand extreme measures! GM said they'd make ventilators! YOUR WORD IS WHO YOU ARE. We dont got time for excuses! PEOPLE ARE DYIN!
  16. Yeah this doggone virus has us caught between a rock and a very dark, very hard place.
  17. This whole thing is scary as heck. I'm 56. I get corona, I will die. Our economy will be shot straight to heck. I dont like the idea of having to relive what my grandparents had to live thru in the Great Depression. I know I wont enjoy Great Depression II. On the other hand - I am happy to have known all of you. I had a great life in VA with all the snows. No one ever promised that I'd live to see 60, let alone 70 or 80. The news just keeps getting worse and worse and worse and worse.
  18. Track it. Its gonna evolve to a 6 inch snow all across guidance.
  19. This. I have been sayin this all winter, The Washington DC Metropolitan Region will get shellacked by snow this low sun season. This is when it will happen, and it will be one to remember. You will be telling your grandkids about it. It will be highly anomalous and it will absolutely destroy the DC Region with snow. It will be a total assault. At the same exact time where I am, in Austin, TX, it will be 88 degrees with 68 dewpoints. I will love it, because I will go thru any hot humid weather so that DC can have tremendous anomalous snows and cold. I love DC so damned much, I'd happily go thru 105 degrees and 84 degree dewpoints in March here in Austin so that DC can have a once in 10000 year snow and cold! I would go thru ANYTHING for you guys in DC! I spent 55 years in that region! You can take this one directly to the bank. Get those Jebman Shovels ready. Whatever it is that you drink to stay awake, you better stock up, because you are all gonna be doing some major-league model tracking!
  20. You guys are really way ahead of spring schedule. So are we down in S Cen TX, 2 foot high grass in places, blooming, and leafout gettin underway! We've mowed the lawn TWICE already!
  21. We hit 76/65 down here in S Cen TX today. Dewpoint has been a pleasant 65 for a couple days now. We experienced a few of those back on Jan and Feb lol. The spring warmth is coming pretty early for us too.
  22. Don't forget that anomalous Greater Antilles Ridge! Its been so warm down here in central TX, that I am ALREADY pretty much used to low 60s dewpoints already, even mid 60s dewpoints! It was doing that many times in Jan and Feb! Central Texas is VERY VERY different from Northern Virginia, lol. Lot less rain, too. I killed off many plants last summer from overwatering them, because of my Washingtonian climatological mindset lmao!
  23. Maybe it gets old for you, but you all know me - I want snow even if I lived in a region with 10,000 inches of snow in a single season. I'd dig it all - WITH A JEBMAN SHOVEL. You'd NEVER hear me complain about too much snow!
  24. Incredible footage! I saw a little of that, minus the snowpack right here in Austin earlier in Feb, for about an hour! It even accumulated a quarter inch on north facing slopes! A quarter inch of snow is roughly equivalent to a 4-6 inch snowstorm in Dale City VA. Wow man that is a TON of snow! It's definitely NOT fake snow, either!
