I think he runs the finest Corvette forum on the entire Internet and I appreciate that he lets me hang out here.

Your nose is so brown you can taste what Dixie had for dinner.

I have so many hobbies I'm never bored.

Huh? If you're actually serious, either close the business for a week or two, or have somebody else run it, and take a ****ing vacation. It's really not that complicated. You have a huge house, expensive cars you don't drive, and whine constantly about your work. Life is WAY too short to go through it hating what you do every day.

I have a theory that nobody, NOBODY, on their deathbed has ever said "Damn, I wish I'd worked more." I suspect way too many wish they'd worked less and enjoyed life more.

I’ve run this place down to nothing due not giving a shit for at least the last 5 years.

I go in the morning and play on the internet till it’s time to go home.

Customers still keep coming coming and buying shit.

Just think, you'll die with all your money and never do anything with it but whine. Pretty pathetic. Take a vacation or stfu.

What people locked down don't understand, is that there are an equal number of places not on lockup. He can't leave his domain and only knows the reality he lives in.

I see this time and again traveling. I was in NM, and those people are oppressed and think the zombies are about to emerge. West TX, things are like usual outside of wearing a mask around your neck to your table at a restaurant. OR, oppressed. WY, wide open. WA, oppressed. ID, wide open. CA, oppressed. MT, wide open.

Those that don't travel don't see "normal" and assume being caged in their homes is reality for everyone. They are wrong and missing out on life.

I'm in Denver now... it's just like Canada... only with indoor dining at 50% and better dental hygiene.

We’ve been ordering all kinds of crap online for months. Only two minor incidents I can recall: a felt Christmas tree topper for ~$20 arrived after Christmas and a vintage Colorado Avs felt pennant for ~$10. Shit gets lost. It showed up.

All true. FL has never been locked down and everything is open at 100% capacity. I'm in UT this week where they're fanatical about masks, but most stores and restaurants are fully open. I have no desire to go to the northeast or west coast right now.
