Our great grandads think alike Rowdy. Recently on another thread I posted nearly the same thing. My great grandpa wouldn’t let them put a bathroom in the house when his kids dug a waterline in.

Canada has the right idea. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.theglobeandmail.com/amp/canada/article-federal-local-governments-consider-fines-prison-to-enforce-social/

I hope the voters remember who was tossing this crap into a stimulus bill to help people who are out of work when election time rolls around.

That might all be changing 😁. Suddenly in an apocalypse like environment having a wood box to sit on and do your business instead of a street or a sidewalk might be considered luxurious.

It’s looking good.

It truly makes me happy seeing people from all over the country that hasn’t lost the self reliance that made this country. It gets depressing on the occasion that I catch the news when over at friends place and it’s nothing but doom and gloom and social media crap. This thread is refreshing break from the norm for me.

I saw another guy doing a ride/review on this same bike. He said the biggest difference from the older ones is how light and nimble it felt compared to older ones. As normal the power from these bikes is incredible.

Why not cancel all flights (for the public) during this lockdown quarantine period? Seems ridiculous to have cities shut down yet still have jet setters spreading this around. The whole point of lock down is to slow this spread down so our health facilities don’t get overwhelmed.

You could raise your own food just do your home work (like you are) ask lots of questions and be fully prepared before bringing a critter home and having to learn on the fly while scrambling for supplies. I have a good deal going. I have a tractor, a friend has a hay pasture. I use my tractor to help put up hay, in return I get farm raised critters and part of the hay. The other part of the hay goes to feed out packing stock which carry out any where from 1-5 elk every year for us along with several deer. My wife and I never have to buy meat (and never have had to) from a store unless we feel like it. It’s kind of nice being somewhat independent. We cure our own meats, make our own sausage and vacuum seal and can our own meats and many of our vegetables. We cook quite often in my Dutch ovens on our patio over wood or coal because we enjoy the process. To me it’s important to be part of the process of getting food to my table directly. I love the animals and have great respect for the and taking their lives to feed my family is something that I’m grateful for.

“The increased rate also led Cuomo to project that the worst could hit in as little as two weeks.” The rate has led experts to project an eventual peak demand of 140,000 hospital beds — up from the 110,000 that Cuomo had previously predicted. Where is cuomo getting his facts? How does he know when the apex is hitting and how many it will affect or is he just hyping in what ifs and I feels?

I really like the old B model wreckers. They just look slick in my opinion. Beautiful enough to take the missus out to dinner with if you were so inclined yet rugged and ready for any job.

That’s good. Glad to see people still have a sense of humor through this.

That’s awful. I imagine she was sent home because the hospital had no room but that’s just speculation. Even if that’s the case it’s still a tragedy in the making. Hopefully she makes a speedy recovery without spreading this. I had to pick a truck up from getting worked on at our shop last week. Mind you we’ve had multiple emails giving us precautions and some rules to go by and one of them is if you’re sick stay home. I arrive at the shop and went to talk to the shop foreman who has access to the keys for the truck I was picking up and from clear across the shop I could clearly see he was sick. Looked pale, mouth agape and lumbering slowly across the shop. I hollered are you sick? He replied yes but I could hardly hear him because his voice was nearly gone and then he started coughing. I got mad and asked why are you here if you’re sick?! He simply stated they’d think I’d have the corona virus if I called in sick. I asked if he has the corona virus and he said no. I said oh good then you’ve been tested. He said no. I asked him how in the hell does he know if he has it or not if he hasn’t been tested? He had no answer and I promptly told him what a selfish, self centered act that is to possibly spread something in a pandemic because you might have to use some sick days. The company already said if we come into contact with corona or have reasonable suspicion we have it (the latter requires a dr note) they will pay is for 30 days to stay at home to ensure it does not spread at work. A-holes like that mechanic are part of the reason it’s so hard to control a spread like this. I sincerely doubt he has Coronavirus since we are isolated from everywhere out here in BFE but why chance it?

There’s no internet police. Go reread your posts. Your panicking and lashing out which helps no one. Have some concerns on things going on in the world? Bring them up in a logical, reasonable way and no one will have a problem with it. Take a deep breath, don’t panic. We all are going to have to ride this out together whether we get along or not and I prefer getting along and helping one another. Good luck.

But you can get an X15 as an option for Volvo but not a Mack so yes neutered.

Can you say neutered? Probably offer the heavy rears to get a customer in the door. Then when they find out they can’t spec what they want under the hood the sly salesman pitches them a Volvo.

She’s a tough cookie! Dr Redfield seemed irritated and looked bad by trying to give a politicians answer like he wanted to but she held his feet to the fire until she got a yes or no publicly from him. Good for her.

What is your deal? Since this corona virus stuff started you’ve been making lots of odd and rude posts on different threads. That bored that you feel the need to troll BMT? Find something productive to do. More than happy to hear someone else’s view on things but not when they go straight to name calling and flaming.

Maybe by calling law officers pigs for starters.

Did you see that they dropped the mortgage rates to near zero? Not saying it’s the answer but it can’t hurt to ease some families that are missing work due to these shut downs.

Bush tried it and I believe Obama did as well. The “stimulus Package” didn’t work either time. Handing taxpayers their money back to just hand back to the government through taxes when it’s spent is a joke.

Don’t forget to make the detour on 14 and stop by the Winchester museum and the Buffalo bill museum in Cody 😁. In all seriousness it’s well worth it if you ever get the chance to see it. Give yourself lots of time there’s 3 museums there and all full of history.

My dad told me when he was a kid his dad and all his uncles got together and dug in a water line to my great grandparents house. Gramma finally got a sink and a washing machine. Grandpa put the kibosh on the bathroom. Told my dad nobody’s going to crap in my house, that’s gross. Dad said it would be below zero and great grandpa would bundle up and go spend 30 minutes in the outhouse doing his business and reading the news paper.
