Held the little guy while he slept for over an hour and a half, wood wake up when I tried to get up. He needs a younger baby sitter, my 72 and 13/14ths year old bladder couldn't do it any longer. Introduced the 3 year old girl to the Wii. Almost as soon as the little seaplane appeared on the screen she grabbed the controller. Never landed it, but flew around an island and buzzed the town, shot a few balloons. Her brother wasn't that good at almost twice her age, really surprised me. I thought she'd just enjoy watching me.

Lot of different opinions about what's being done about the virus, but what impresses me is how fast people are responding, most of the social and business decisions are coming from businesses and state and local governments before the Feds decide anything. I don't think Americans have pulled together like this since WWII, or accepted so much inconvenience and sacrifice without a whole lot of complaining like we're hearing from politicians and the media.

Books & video have pictured the collapse of civilization as war, asteroids, aliens, zombies; seems nobody ever thought it might be because everybody just decides to stay home.

Morning woods, getting up and moving.

Mike that is an interesting take on how things are. I would agree.

Morning Chuck.

Bike is still in the shop. Diagnosed with a lifter issue and clutch (actuator I think) needing addressed. Waiting on parts.

They attribute that to the lifter issue

I’ll buy that. Do they think the lifter rollers are flaking ? . Some time back they had a batch that had hardening ( heat treating) issues.
