Well, I'm just going to post this last bit of odd trivia.

The United States of America has existed (1776 to 2020... just about 240ish years) for roughly the same length of time that Oxford University (first class was 1095) existed prior to the Aztec Empire being founded (1395 give or take... about 230 years later.)

Been a while.  How's everyone doing these days?  So far I'm one of the lucky ones.  No illness, I can work at home and the company I work for hasn't gone out of business yet.  Also, replaced my broken guitars with new guitars... so there's that.

Just askin...

Having had my sporadic trips to the gym over the last couple of years curtailed by the lock-down, I went and splashed out on a rowing machine and have turned the basement into a home gym

Major downside to that was cleaning out at least three decades worth of dust- even a CV cough had nothing on mine after that.  Still, at least people let me jump the queue at the supermarket   

The hope is that having splashed out a load of cash I can guilt trip my own fat lazy arse into actually making use of it, and not being able to go anywhere for a few weeks gives me an ideal opportunity to get into a bit of a routine.

Anyone else started doing something new that might last beyond the next few weeks?

BTW - I'd highly recommend trying out one of the PE with Joe sessions on YouTube to find out just how out of shape you are!  Half an hour of sheer fucking torture.

Just about to be told to stay home for 3 months, hiding in my bunker. Only got a couple of days to stock up. Need advice, what should I get?  Obviously toilet paper, paracetamol and hand sanitizer, but what else will I need?  Thinking lamp oil, batteries, solar charger, water purification kit, ammo, barbed wire and a shovel to dig trenches and/or bury any zombies that try to get in. Anything else?

Got plenty of whisky, anyone wants to join me, bring proof you are not unclean and maybe beer.

...Happy holidays!

Lets reboot this place and get some more..

Strap in folks.  The Democrat controlled House will impeach, the Republican controlled Senate will acquit, and Trump will get re-elected because the GOP base will have been galvanized (barring something more than this Ukraine stuff).

What a walking omnifuck this tool is...
