Yup. Neighbors house. Spitting snow in Vegas right now .

White pine vs new audi .

I disagree with UBI based on the fact most small business can't pay $20/hr for help that won't show up. What happened to $12/hr high school and college kids. Who pumps gas? This year we heard so many stories of college kids applying for unemployment due to CV. They couldn't "find a job" so they got $570/week to sit home. I don't know if you can still do this. There's a number in Massachusetts and I'm not sure what it is, but it's getting higher where it's more advantageous to sit on your keister than get a job. $20 /hr gets people in the door. A lot of business can't survive on that. You'll see a lot of automation coming further making the problem worse.

I had 2 BTC in Mt Gox that blew up.

She said their bakers start at 1am.

morning story #4343543 that small businesses are in trouble now that we've put everyone on universal basic income. I'm looking for someplace to rant but I got rid of Facebook. This morning My favorite bakery can't open early because they have no staff to come in and make croissants at odd hours. There's not enough money you can pay people to be a baker anymore. The owners are in their 60s and I'm sure they are going to close the place down sooner rather than later. The other option is Dunkin Donuts . Yesterday My friend told me his small business put an add in the paper two weeks ago for entry level work at $15/hr. No applicants. They upped it to $20/hr last week and got 4 bad applicants. Parole people required to apply for jobs etc. My business Restaurants on Cape Cod that want to open can't staff their establishments . Restaurants opening now at limited capacity not because of the state but because of staff. The downstream effects of UBI and stimuluses are having a devastating effect on small businesses. There is a huge undocumented population on Cape Cod (brazil) with their own shadow economy. We legally need to be able to tap into that labor pool.

We had moth balls around our tulips to try and protect them from the deer. Rain washed them away. Woke up to the tulips trounced. Deer was nude having a buffet on the tulips. Keep pissing off the deer hunter. Watch what happens.

No sh1t. I got up at 3am and walked downstairs because I kept hearing rumbling.

About right. We have the first edge on our oysters. They're starting to grow.

First schoolies in Duxbury. They have lice on them so new fish.

Please continue to wear your mask to your hearts content. I'll be great without mine. I'd like to have a real menu at a restaurant now.

I love reading the covid threads. We are in bizarro world now. We've stopped listening to science. Restaurants still can't have menus (place I went last night). Towns won't open up swap areas at the dump (duxbury) . We're still wearing masks outdoors. We're going to create a superbug from all of the incessant hand washing (my wife). There is zero need for hand washing stations at a youth soccer field.

My wife is a marathon runner. Had Covid already. First moderna shot crushed her.

Wish we could get this as the 3rd major political party. My version of the libertarian party: Snort coke, shoot guns (as long as not at other people), visit a prostitute and pay well, let me keep my money. Marry a penguin. Be nice to everyone. Stop fighting silly wars. Low taxes. Low government overhead Be good to the earth. No masks outside.

I would pave my yard with asphalt before I let crabgrass overrun my yard.

My oaks are dropping leaves today. Absolutely maddening . .

Testing some areas with sand leveling . One section sand only and one section sand and loam. .

Going to attempt to do the sand and soil mix today on a few dips in my lawn.

Just watched my grill cover fly way. Thoughts and prayers

Big production to get the boat and gear ready for tuna every year. By law I have to get my life raft which is federally mandated safety gear re-packed every year which sucks. You're in the hole $800 to start the year. Just sitting here scheduling a repack at a place in Rhode Island.

We lose at football play calling . .

59 Coast sucks in the spring

Just pulled a tick off my son who was jumping in leaf piles this weekend.
