Happy Easter

[Aragorn243]

They don't dictate how I live or what I say. If they are being complete idiots, I'll happily point it out.

PA's numbers are screwed up now so I'm not sure what's going on. They have 156 new deaths on one chart but based on daily tracking numbers it's only 78 and yesterday's were not as high as I said, they were not over 100 yesterday either.

People were out all over the place this morning. Drivers in a rush. Had two riding their horns behind me. I ignored them. Where the heck do they have to be? Not even supposed to be outside the house unless you're going to work or some other approved activity. Grocery store lots were full. I'm assuming because it's Saturday and they are waiting till the last minute to get Easter dinner fixins.

There is a place called "Sight and Sound" near us and it is a Christian theater production company. Rather expensive so I don't generally go but have been to one show and my wife has gone to several additional ones. They released "Jesus" today commercial free on numerous viewing mechanisms and we sat and watched that. No intermissions either. They really put on a show. If you ever visit Amish country in Pennsylvania, I highly recommend it. Pretty amazing what they do with live performances. They did Jonah and actually made you feel like you were in the ocean with the whale swimming past you. I didn't see that one but wanted to. They use real animals and in Jesus had Romans riding horses up and down the aisles along with camels, donkeys, goats, sheep etc. They had boats that looked like they were in the water also. It was a nice break from watching Covid 19 updates. I think they have a second facility out west somewhere. Now I'm watching my second hour of Ancient Aliens. My head is getting close to exploding.

It was suggested to me yesterday that it may be able possible to bring the Covid-19 virus into your house/home on your shoes. Is this likely or possible?

I don't quite see why elderly people are dying in care homes in the UK from the virus. Surely elderly people have just as much right and entitlement to be taken to hospital for treatment as anyone else with the virus?

Being mildly curious I did look and saw opinions from 3 to 5 days. Shoes off at the door here without fail since several decades ago so not an issue. Keeps a lot of other @#$^* from being tracked in as well.

I posted a link to video about humidity and virus airborne persistence rates a couple of weeks back. All those clips we saw weeks ago of the ground being sprayed in China might just be linked to killing the virus on the ground.

Pity to see people dying unnecessarily, but quite honestly it happens every day and always will. (Look at the interest level in self-help if anyone wonders why)

One 93 year old Doc whose website I saw said if it was a member of his family who died after being deprived of cheap, proven and readily available therapies, he'd sue.

Gubbermint is finally getting volunteering off the ground here. Anyone waiting for that would have starved already. Put my name in, we'll see how long it takes to hear back.

Well brought my little one 2009/848 Ducati out for a tad of sun and bit of Mr Sheen it does not get ridden as much as its bigger brothers in the fleet but don't let its small size fool you I had a chap on an modded SP-1 Honda in a section of twisties that has 40KlmHr & 30KlmHr corners with some that are blind and drop out of sight so you have to be on your mettle it goes for about 40 Klm, I finished at a good clip with my friends and wife not to far behind.
The SP-1 rider later told be he nearly stuffed his rig into the river trying to keep up with me on a drop off corner and had it all anchors on and thankfully held it upright albiet a close run thing its just my little 848 is so light and with modest engine mods is an extremely potent rig it holds it's own against some bigger bikes my other 2 in the straights will annihilate it as their acceleration is just brute horse power but on the corners it comes close to them.

If you have the inclination have a crack at a Ducati like say a 1199 or 1299 or the V4 and I will say if you don't terrify yourself you will have a big grin at just how well they accelerate, handle and stop.
I'm pretty sure Ovidio would have had a crack at a Ducati.

In younger years I liked to ride like a fool on our mountains, with wifey doing her part in the rear and getting as low as possible with me.
Now I’m all in with my fat California.
Just relaxing and inspiring: chug chug chug chug...

Starting Easter lunch preparations. Wood embers are a must!
We’ll have a pic-nic in our garden with grilled lamb chops and some good, grilled veggies etc. Cabernet Sauvignon from here, good coffee, grappa and peace...

Wish everybody the best and only that!

Happy Easter everyone!! Today is quite different than past Easters when the family gets together for a big family gathering to celebrate. This year since my wife and I at high risk due to our ages and general health concerns are staying at home. We will video phone the grandkids later in the day to wish them a Happy Easter. They have already pigged out on the Easter candy. My daughter sent each of the grandkids an Easter basket early in the week and they ate all of the candy before Easter. They must have one hell of a sugar high from all of the candy. After all of this is over with my wife and I will have one big picnic with the family.

Business at the gunshop have been pretty steady even with most of the popular brands such as Glock 9mm being gone, with even the distributors not being to obtain them. Being "bunny up" with the face mask and gloves all day remains me of the NBC training in the Army, at least my annual hayfever has not acted up yet. Still getting the last minute shoppers calling looking for firearms that were sold out two weeks ago. Finally ran out of the AR lowers. Some folks it is easier to build an AR platform from a lower than buying a complete firearm. We have at least $35,000 of firearms on back order to restock the store.

Eveyone again have a Happy Easter! Stay safe and healthy!

Rosemary, Garlic and the small berries Ovidio are they Juniper ones! I love lamb chops with crispy tails, when I was on the land on the farm you'd get your killers in and check their tails at the root the one with the thickest tail root was destined for your tucker table. Normaly do the deed late evening hang over night and break it down in the morning the cold nights up North usually set the fat well.
