waiting out the storm (virus)

[/pine]

Wondering what people will be doing...especially the ones isolating themselves etc...
There is no sports to watch...

What will the Internet bring to the table...?

I suspect streaming service subscriptions will be going up...youtube and other sites will be seeing more traffic...

Maybe some free games etc?

Forget that stuff... Spring is here, I'm going outside to play!

Yep spring is here. Bored with the virus stuff. Gotta try and finish the tractor shed. If it ever drys up gonna till the garden.

yeah Spring is here but so is the virus...a lot of people are going to get sick...not everyone will just have a runny nose...!

I am going to go out and drive my tractor.

Of course every time my tractors have a mechanical glitch, my Amish neighbors needle me and say "I should have some horses."

Well now that the CoronaVirus is here, and is one of the few diseases that actually spreads between animals and humans, I asked my Amish neighbor what he is going to do when his horses start dying off? "I will just continue to farm", I said, and walked off...smiling!

(Of course I do sell them quite a bit of hay, so I would feel the pinch too, and obviously hope they get a cure before it gets to the horse population.).

I'm not sure what this "spring" is that you're talking about as we still have 2 feet of snow on the ground and I haven't even opened a seed catalog yet. Otherwise everything is business as usual for me. I've never been a sports fan and haven't had television since it went digital, as I refuse to pay to watch commercials. My down time is spent reading, including too much time on TBN.

I am with you...

But....(said slowly, with his head hung very low)

I am sinking to an all time low today. I caved. Gave up the ghost. Gave in...

I am having the wife pick me up a cell phone today. They say only 7% of the population does not have one, so I was holding out, but with a new job, I had better have one..."

Sad day indeed. Broken Track has got an electronic leash!

Bill Bryson said about 'books'..."They're like television for smart people"...

Ha! Because horses require less maintenance than a tractor? My tractors average less than two maintenance periods per year, but I use the tractors every day to help take care of the horses.

Buying some diesel is a lot less work than getting in a year's supply of hay.

Snowing as we speak in God's Country.
