I'm sure you've already guessed, but I can't remember if I actually told you-I'm not going to be going to hawaii in June anymore.

I figured that, yes. No worries, though, brother, nobody else is coming either.

And that's a Saturday afternoon.

Ouch. A lot of discussion locally about Boeing. I mean, they were having trouble BEFORE the quarantine. Orders for planes has been reduced to a trickle, and the assembly lines are following suit.

if you refuse to acknowledge that your product is a ticking timebomb, customers tend to pick a different option...I am sure Ford can sing a couple of stanzas of that song....Explorer style!

It hasn't gotten that bad for me yet, but it definitely could. And I ended up missing a couple weeks of college, which was okay then but would be a huge issue now that I actually need work for money. It's been a few years so I forgot about the pain from then, now trying to fix it before that happens again.

Take it slow and don't push it, that is all I can say. But backs can be touchy so be careful

we had a spell, in the 90s were they would go off the road....a few fatalities.
It saved the tire factory in town, as Ford switched from Firestones to Goodyear at the time.
Then again....Ford is doing that at times....in the 70s it was the Pinto!

Yeah my dad works for Boeing (makes the wing flaps) he's still at work at the moment, but can imagine it'd have slowed right down...

Ah, I do remember the Firestone issue. Fortunately it never happened to us.
We used to call my sister fireball because her first new car was a 1976 Pinto. She commuted to/from Nashville every day. Thankfully she was never rear ended.

You know, a couple weeks ago I was looking at webcams and I found one that was looking at the Las Vegas strip..... and it looked much the same....it was post apocalyptic erie
 
Yup......my lineage most DEFINITELY goes to a mythical mountain monk who was a daoist, who lived in a cave, that saw animals fighting...or a strange golden light... that gave him the idea to create a new style of martial arts.....gives me sooooooo much more legitimacy.......oh and while I am at it, since I have no clear/direct lineage in Xingyiquan.....I shall now claim an unproven and historically unverifiable lineage to Yue Fei.......should have showed up on MT way back when as Grandmaster Monk Xue.....

I think I need Hobbit's professional expertise....
I downloaded a pattern, and when I opened it, it was in Russian....
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
It's got a chart, so I might be able to just count it out...but sheesh!
 
I don't mind working from home so much....and prior to this, social distancing was pretty much my way of life....but this STUPID DANG KNEE thing is preventing me from doing any taijiquan or stance training...now this is going TO FAR!!!
 
I hate meetings.....i miss the days of state security meetings...short, to the point, based on law and regulations.....

Also this whole coronavirus stay at home stuff is actually forcing me to be social due to continual lets all stay connected meetings.....and you don't know how painful that is for an anti-socialist such as myself....if it ain't martial arts.... I don't need to socialize..... so for everything else....

What sort of a pattern? I don't really know English sewing or knitting terminology.
 
Everyone is crying about being isolated and being bored and lonely.....I don't get it because I'm enjoying the heck out of this
