I had a horrific coughing fit this afternoon, there is no one in my in-person life who will step up and post when I die because my wife doesn't like forums, and all my friends from the neighborhood are either dead or dying from last week's BBQ This could very well be my last post as my remaining time on this Earth is certainly measured in minutes at this point. I would wish everyone well, except that there are a few online folks that if they got a nasty case of crabs, I wouldn't shed a tear.

This country is filled with a bunch of scared sheep. Let the virus run it's course and humanity will be stronger for it. The people dying are the ones that would die from getting the flu or pneumonia.

Here is my comparison.

If I open a can of vegetables and I leave them out at room temperature, an about a week, they will be pretty contaminated.

If i keep the can sealed up and safe from that elements for a year, then I open it and leave it at room temperature for a week, the result will be the same...just a year later.

If we would have just let this shit go, we'd be on the other side of the storm by now. Instead, we are sealed up and 6 months from now, we'll STILL get contaminated.

I was down in the garage cleaning up the bench, and must have sneezed at least a half dozen times. I'm not sure I'll make it through the night.

But the good news is that I found the missing piece to the passenger side interior on my C3, and a proper screw, and one of those interior ring washers, so the piece is back in place with no visible wires hanging down under the dash anymore!

The bad news is that I have grown so weak, I'm not sure I'll be able to turn the key to take the car for a ride in the morning. The GoFundMe site should be up momentarily. I hope you all give generously.

Since you won't give the Corvette to that other tool, may have it?

Good morning folks!

As you might have guessed, I did make it through the night.

I don't own any good watches. The most expensive watch I own my wife bought me for work. I think it cost about $200, and is probably more or less worthless now.

We are obviously both scientific anomalies having survived hanging out and shaking hands. I'm waiting for the NEJM to contact me any moment and do a write up. I'm also considering a book deal about my survival ability and the drama those hours and days created while I anxiously waited for my inevitable demise. One handshake and your entire world can change. One beer with friends really makes you reflect on your past and the decisions made along the way. We are blessed.

Sorry, I have you guys beat. My story will be a gripping bestseller. Since the start of the scamdemic I’ve had a colonoscopy, major abdominal surgery and a visit from our daughter and grandkids who flew in from Idaho. I’ve nearly died from the China Flu 32 times but I keep kicking its ass.

Going to the beach today without a mask.
