Welcome to another week. Ancient Chinese curse...

"May you live in interesting times..."

I'd prefer dull.

498 new cases today, 20 deaths. Glad we waited for things to go down before blasting on back to normal.

Be safe out there.

Heard a preacher say that Men are concerned about how much their wives spend and how much the government spend. The only difference is we do not hesitate to be vocal about how much the government spends. Wives do not hesitate to be vocal about how much we spend.

Nother' week. Nother' few days of nearly 500 new cases.

Tater' Tot sez we need to wear masks in public, (I do) damn few do. He sho' didn't at the funeral yesterday.

Lota' hand shakin' neck huggin' & wiping away tears/nose blowing. Guess we'll see how many die from going to that funeral.

Very sorry for the death of deputy Blair. Very sorry that a SO would use a 77 year-old for prisoner transport.

I sure wish I had made my trip to Rona' Depot earlier in the week.

Y'all be safe

I noticed some statistics on one of the news sites yesterday....
Mississippi has has about 20,000 cases....... of those cases we have had about 1,000 die....... Hmmmmmmm, wait a minute, that sounds kinda high....
let's see....
1,000 divided by 20,000...(....carry the 2, add 6, minus 5)..... that sounds about like about 5%..... FIVE percent? That doesn't sound like the odds I want shoot against.
I'll keep wearing MY MASK and let everyone else that doesn't believe this is some serious $#it go without.

I'm like you David, I would rather have a DULL, SOS day than all this, disease and riot mess we are experiencing right now.
Like ole Rip Van Winkle said, "Y'all wake me up when this mess IS OVER."



Here is the story...

I put this link in May, I'll bump it each month.

https://msdh.ms.gov/msdhsite/_static...ml#Mississippi

I'm afraid it's going to be the same ol' same ol'....

Never money or effort to do it right first time but plenty of both to fix it after it comes apart.

Meanwhile...

I'm going to post a couple my latest projects, I promise

Hope everybody is staying sane & healthy in the time of insanity & sickness.

Here's my "20 footer". White car & digital photos work magic. Nose looks like it lost a BB gun war.

I've about got all the clear that's been flaking off the hood for a year completely gone.

New lights & belt line trim. Shot of Bar-b-q black on the mirrors.

Nice ride David!

To answer your first question.... I feel about 65% healthy but the insanity has deteriorated my last nerve.

Thanks. It's been slipping in the care department over the last few years.

Just trying to slow the entropy.

It's nice to drop the hammer every now & then on something that can still get out of it's own way smartly.
