    Amazing and they do it with a smile and a warning to be safe. When this is over people should remember how courageous they have been. They really are heroes.

    We are counting on contractors to continue building. We are counting on producers to keep producing. We are counting on distributors to keep distributing. Many college educated people are employed in these fields. Many of these jobs that are not normally low wage job, in some cases, have become less hours with share time unemployment being less than what a person sitting home is making. For those workers working harder with less money in their pockets and a health risk to pitch in to keep a business whole and help this country move forward, they need to be fairly compensated. Whether that is through loans to businesses that are forgiven and passed on to employees or from unemployment compensation. You cant ask people to risk their lives for less or the same, when people are getting more sitting home.

    Remarkable isn't it.That these same folk { those in the heartland and
    around this Great Land } who are the real producers,the Farmers,The'
    Truckers,the men and women who make things in factories and have to
    take showers when they come home from work were Mocked almost
    mercilessly by these Dweebish Authoritarians in the Mainstream Media.
    This has gone past Irony.

    " We must not fear fear " but rather those who
    manufacture it.They know not what they do.

    Not real easy to get around but once you figure it out a wealth of info. Glad to see somebody up this morning. Looked at my portfolio and lost another $569 yesterday. Felt like winner after these last couple weeks. Like my old friend Hobo Ken use to say " as long as you have something you don't have nothing".

    I had an argument a week ago when my Rich estranged little brother
    called.He'll call when he gets drunk.Mostly to boast about his expensive
    Hi-fi equipment.Plus he'll say stuff like what he wants to give me.
    Like a leftover piece of stereo equipment.We got to talkin' records
    and he was insisting on a certain Jerry Garcia album I need to get.
    I told him a I have a rather large Jerry Garcia LP collection.Probably
    9 albums.Anyway he said something stupid.That it was too bad he died
    like when he was 27 er something.I said what.Whoa thar Wilbur.
    he lived way longer than that.Yer thinkin' Jimmi Hendrix or Janis Joplin
    and even Jim Morrison.Not Garcia.I said he lived like into his 50's.
    My Brother swore he was right.I told him he died due to his late in life
    graduating into really serious drugs like Heroin.That's what Got
    Joplin { too strong a dose of Heroin}. Same with Morrison who wasn't
    used to using heroin.Took some when he was his usual Drunken self.
    After Partying in some Paris underground disco of sorts.
    Garcia left us at age 53.
    Playboy Magazine used to name him every year for around
    10 years as the best or one of the best Rock Guitarist.

    Seems like the weather is another whammy this spring. Cannot remember, in a long time, not having many warm days by now. Country really needs some warm weather to help break this virus spell. If nothing else just to let us all enjoy the warm feeling of the sun beating down on our faces.

    Ironic how during WWII against the German tanks { Panzer and Tiger }
    which made silly putty out of the underclassed Sherman Tanks.
    Where the thunderous 88's of the Tiger dominated.Plus the
    overbuilt armor.The only way to stop a Tiger was in one spot
    in the rear { an Achilles heel }. That meant If a Sherman was to have
    any chance against a Tiger,it had to work real hard in outflanking
    and getting behind a Tiger for a shot at that Achilles Heel.
    The Brad Pitt Movie - Fury - { 2014 } captures this.

    That appears to be the weak spot of this Virus.But I read somewhere
    that it was in the 80's in China when that Wuhan Virus was mounting.

    Wonder if I got hold of some of that brew just before I quit drinking in '82. Iron City, if I remember, $0.79 a six pack. Drank so much of that stuff, at that price, I think it hurried my entry into A.A. . I was a little suspicious of that outfit. Couldn't understand why they would want me for a member.

    We have had some sunny days but with a cold wind. A nice warm day would be nice. Since my barber is shut down, I shaved my head last night to maintain my handsomeness, my scalp is a little pale and could use a bit of color. Got a kayaking trip planned next weekend, weather permitting. That should do it.
