A 10 month old and a 3 year old is about 3.3 more kid than I can comfortably handle. The little one is a petri dish spitting on me; he gets the c virus I'm next.
Real info that can give you a better idea of how this virus is going. The bar chart showing infection/recovery/death is most telling to me. They're constantly updating it, and you can see that there's an initial few weeks the infection rate climbs with no recoveries, and then the recoveries and deaths start, but the first round of deaths before a lot of infections give a high percentage of deaths. A few days ago the U.S. was over 5%, today it's a little over 1%. It's just getting going in a bunch of less developed countries, I wouldn't be surprised if it gets real bad in those countries. We're actually doing pretty good; without that one nursing home, we'd be really low compared to Europe and Asia. The damned media is trying to make this sound as bad as possible, even saw one jerk ridiculing a doctor that people needed to take personal precautions, kept saying the government should be doing it all for us. Guess he thinks Trump should be wiping everyone's noses... Democrat, was on Clinton's team before joining the media circus.
Haven't seen this on the news, but simple math shows the world death rate has dropped from the reported high of 3.4 to less than 3. Hopefully that trend continues.
Morning y'all! Back is ^#*$% killing me today! Made think of you geezers.
I've spent an inordinate amount of time in the shop lately. Here's my progress: Major rust repair on the core support. The bottom was rotten all across and it took a bunch of beating and some welding to get it together. Welding the bottom where I made a new panel. Inner fender under the battery was rotten too, so I made a new piece. Got it welded in. Won't be putting the battery back under the hood. Got the core support and inner fenders painted and installed My engine came back from the machine shop and I painted it using the same stuff as I did the body. Here's a ghetto mock up of some shiny bits. The rest of the truck is black and blue so i wanted a little shiny. Got the booster and MC in and made and ran the new brake lines. Figured it best to do it now than when the engine goes back in and I don't have room to work.
Good mid-morning gents. 34* and clear. Was mid 20's at 0500. Frost was definitely on the Daffodils. Moon was so bright this morning that you could almost read the paper.
Chris, you are making great progress. Looks nice.
