Masks are largely a placebo. Respirators would limit the spread.

That certainly throws a monkey wrench in your plans. I see the number of positive tests continue to climb, but the worst symptoms I've heard of is just the sniffles. Very few deaths have been reported, which is good. So that tells me that we're doing exactly what we should be, pushing through the herd immunity while the weather is warm and people are generally more healthy. Doing that now should mitigate this coming winter.

Is the other grandmother ill? If so, what are her symptoms?

https://www.clawhammersupply.com/blogs/moonshine-still-blog/7207958-methanol-will-moonshine-make-you-blind During the distillation process methanol is concentrated at the start of the run because it has a lower boiling point than ethanol and water. The boiling point of methanol is approximately 148 degrees farenheit, which is quite a bit lower than ethanol (the good stuff). This means that methanol (148F boiling temp) will start to boil before the ethanol (174F boiling temp). This is why moonshiners always throw out the first bit of shine they produce

Same as when moonshine gets done wrong and they don't bleed off the methanol.

I've got a K31 and haven't heard of these before. Looks darn cool. Let us know how they shoot.

A big can of bear spray, maybe. The typical key-chain pepper spray is just going to make them mad.

I would guess disabling the audio recording would be fairly simple. I do not think editing the video prior to giving it to police is a good idea. Sounds a lot like evidence tampering to me, and only guilty people do that.

I've talked with my wife about it too, it's an important conversation to have. I don't care if you mash the car, just get outta there. The motorcycle background has me always thinking about an escape route. It bugs the crap outta me seeing these riders that stop about a foot dead center from the vehicle in front. If something happens, they're screwed.

I'll give Dodge credit on their colors. Too many cars/trucks are very bland these days. Fire engine red is about the best you can hope for, and i don't really like that color. I haven't seen a decent green in years.

Depends on who's in the vehicle and perceived attitude of the mob. You said very angry, so... If that means they've got clubs at a minimum and are breaking windows and dragging people out... Get off the X. I make every effort to leave some maneuvering room between me and the car in front. If I've got to push another car out of the way or otherwise part the sea, so be it. I'll do whatever I can not to hurt anyone, but I'm getting my family out of there. If they're only beating on the cars with bare hands and making no attempt to enter the cars, then I'll do my best to keep cool and wait it out. Damage to my vehicle isn't worth hurting anyone.

The CDC already has been reporting entire households as positive when a single family member tests positive.

One of each, two of many, three of some...

Yes, I would guess its leaking past the threads.

4:1 here as well. Use plain white sugar.

To @Grayfox54 point above... Or were the hair stylists false positives?

Cool. I may or may not have dispatched an untold number of nuisance squirrels using CB's growing up in a subdivision. I bought a pellet gun for that purpose now, and it's louder than the CB's.

Note that the hospitals here haven't been anywhere near capacity in the past 4 months. Most have been virtually empty. Given that society has been reopened for 2 weeks, if sick people aren't flocking to the hospitals now, I doubt they will.

We had a couple for a week back in April, but none since. Need to clean the feeders again.

Hillbilly style...

Welcome

As I understand it, the tickle your brain nasal swab only tests for live virus. So if you've already had it and recovered (with or without symptoms) you test negative unless you've come in contact again. I'd presume a 2nd (or 3rd, or 4th,....) positive test would be asymptomatic and mean you've picked it up somewhere. The antibody test is what tests for immunity, and I dont think those results are what's being reported. If antibody test results are being included, then the data is even more cloudy. Antibodies just mean your body is prepared to fight it off before you come in contact. They don't magically make the virus disappear. It's still there its just easier for your immune system to destroy. Antibodies are like being in a fox hole with a minigun and a pallet of ammo knowing exactly where the enemy line is. The moment they charge, you pop a flare and start mowing them down. You still might break a sweat and have to duck while reloading, but the outcome is clear. No antibodies is like walking down a dark alley and the BG grabs you from behind. The fight is on, the outcome is uncertain.

I'm curious why folks are getting tested. Are they sick or just paranoid? My sister-in-law got tested but it turned out she had mono instead. I wish they would distinguish between those with symptoms and those without.

Truth. When I do dumb things and hurt myself now, there's usually a sigh followed by... well, thats gonna hurt forever now.

I fired up ye ole EZ for some tree trimming this afternoon. Started on the 5th pull and ran just fine. I dont recall using it last year so it may have been 2 years since I last used it.
