HIPPYVALLEY

This came up last week. A few of us definitely thought it’s been exceptionally windy the past month. Ginx found some charts that said Boston has had much windier periods in the spring but inland has certainly seemed quite breezy to me.

36/24. Chillier than I expected.

If we can get a nice dry stretch, as currently forecast, it will do a lot to keep the blackflies numbers in check.

Standing on the deck of the battleship in Fall River this morning, you had to lean into the wind gusts they were so strong.

In terms of accepted vernacular, that is an improper use of the term "balls up".

When the Charlton location opened they were grossing $60k+ on Saturdays. Think about that. Edit: I can't speak for TreeHouse but smaller breweries making similar Double IPA's it would cost anywhere from $1.00 - $2.00 can to produce.

With a dozen taps of delicious beer too?

Their accountant told them they needed to spend more money actually. But yes they may as will be printing their own money.

That’s a great analysis WRT the Shanghai lockdowns. I found it all a little bit suspicious but could not put my finger on what was going on. The whole thing was horribly inhumane. Yes, the crack analogy is a very appropriate one and it’s not as though droves of financial experts warrant warning people about the Fed’s devilish policies. Anybody who is surprised by this crash was not paying attention. My stock positions are fairly minimal at this point and long-term and my crypto positions I’m just letting ride because those are also long-term and I know they will bounce back even if BTC goes below 34k.

Yeah, major drops across all markets. Close the shades for a while.

I thought the same thing today when I read about it. So I guess it's now OK to physically assault someone if they somehow offend your ideals?

Sunday was awesome but this week has been complete meh' so far. I've had .60" of rain the past 48hours and had the wood stove going Monday night. Perhaps paradise waits somewhere on a hill in Tolland CT but this spring has been mediocre here.

I’ll be camping out in Fall River, on the battleship USS Massachusetts Saturday night, with the Cub Scouts, I doubt it’s heated. Lol

Cold wet day in NW MA. Gardens and lawns be damned I want two weeks of warm and dry.

I’m not into it, it would be nice to get a dry week of mid to upper 60s rather than going from low 50s to mid summer heat.

Should I book a Cape trip?

I lit the woodstove tonight so clearly I’ve been emasculated by the weather.

45/43 RA. .25” so far tonight. Already higher than my <.10” forecast.

I’m paranoid of going to shows at the Orpheum theater in Boston. Fires sure but also the way that balcony bounces up and down at a rockin show.

50/42, steady light rain.

Five minute light shower was it this morning. Fine with me.

Looks gray the next few days. Hopefully stays relatively dry.

Where?

Don’t want, enjoying the dry for a bit.

Up to 64/34 with full sun. She’s a beaut! I could go for a week of this.
