I’m so sorry for your loss.

My doc never had me in the office. My temp spiked late in day, and we called them first thing in AM. After phone discussion he wanted me to go get covid test immediately.

Square Rob

To be honest, I had a horrible W/Th/F/Sa and honestly thought I had this. Turns out it was just a bad flu. For three days though I could barely get out of bed.

Square Rob

Finally got results back, negative. We went so far as to call Doug Jones office for support. They let the senator know they had my results before me!

Square Rob

Still no results. This is absurd.

One of my all time favourite bands. He was just about the best rock keyboardist ever.

I didn’t know he wrote Golden Brown which is one of the greatest songs of that decade.

I still feel like absolute dogshit, and don’t yet have test results back. Still no shortness of breath or serious cough though, which is promising. I’ve had a brutal headache now since Tuesday, and starting Friday my whole body was aching. Even my eyeballs hurt. Given that, I’m starting to think it’...

Also, if you know my mom on Facebook please don’t say anything. I’d prefer her not to panic.

Also, don’t send me a note on Twitter.

Well, fuck. Woke up yesterday with a headache and some on again off again neck pain. Ibuprofen and coffee in the morning and I felt better, basically normal for a Tuesday. Ran 5k when I got home at a decent pace and ached like hell at the start but otherwise felt good. Ran at a 7:45/m pace which isn...

I had to warn someone to not come into my office yesterday afternoon.

You guys view everything through a political lens. It's not crazy to think that covid 19 wouldn't have asymptomatic transmission. SARS (covid 2003) did not have substantial asymptomatic transmission. Why would we assume that covid does much less make major policy decisions based on it. This is Marc...

Sister facility of ours is in one of the worst zones in France. 400+ people in a smaller region already dead. Spoke with a friend and he says everyone has a family member, friend, or neighbor who has already died. I’ve spent lots of time there and love it (right by Colmar in Alsace) and have good fr...

My 50th is coming up, and I had to shut down the floated notion of a surprise party that was being run by my wife. She was so sweet about it, and it was heart warming that my friends wanted to do something. I'm an absolute zilch in terms of notoriety, but it would be a fireable offense to be someho...

Go to calendar and pick a date in the future you want to go to and you can simulate to that date.

Y’all, we’re at the point where this is going to get insanely worse each day. By orders of magnitude.

So say your governor asked anyone who has been to New York In the past 14 days to stay home for 14 days from when you were there. Then say someone was in say, Bayonne New Jersey and spent more than a short period of time in a convenience store. You think that person should tell his(or her!) boss he...

Ok, holy shit. Just learned they went to Disney 3/15, last day park was open. I hope she will be ok, but damn wtf?

Welp. One of our good friends here in town tested positive. Currently a breast cancer fighter. Only the 4th or 5th confirmed local case. Now this has really hit home.

How many times a day do you all think you or a close family member has the thing? Three? Four? Shit, it’s a constant thought for me right now. I’m checking my temp 2-3 times a day. I have to be honest that I’m not very thrilled with the way people at work are managing their social distancing and or...

Alabama is beginning to shut down the ABC stores (Alabama beverage commission). That’s the only avenue to buy liquor (other liquor stores buy from abc to distribute). Effective today more than half of the stores close, and the ones that are open will only let people in 5 at a time. Not ashamed to sa...

Totally missed the Hopkins trade news. Holy fuck that’s amazing. Check the Texans org for the ‘rona because something is rampant there.

Sorry that’s a wall of text.

Jesustittyfuckingchrist. Really weird for me lately. Son, who is immune compromised (has to take immune suppressing drugs to control his acute Chron’s) is currently living with us. He’s hard headed and was having trouble accepting the risk until yesterday. At 22, even moderately at risk kids feel in...

Gonna throw this out there now. I'll bet at least one and possibly two GOP Congresspersons (or possibly even Trump) have already tested positive and they're waiting to announce until after the market close on Friday. I think this is highly probable. Hell, the Brazilians probably caught it from them.

I’m not looking forward to the next two months. Even though I can do a large part of my job at home, I’m classified as an essential employee. Given that our hourly workforce will (rightly) be allowed to self quarantine when this hits the fan in about a week, I’ll have to be out on the floor making m...

To add to that - they are pulling back hours and shifts at baltimore harbor because volume in-bound is off. FWIW, I hope Quinn gets to go on his trip. I love Lyon and have really enjoyed my time there. If he gets to go please make sure he gets at least one nice dinner at one of the classic bouchons.

The primary reason the market is way off is due to a very legitimate concern - that practically every fucking thing is manufactured in China - and many of those Chinese manufacturing plants are/were shut down tight for weeks due to the virus. As some of you know, I spent my career in the shipping/l...

I’m amazed he’s alive. We were discussing the way they held news on his condition and I think they did it right. That said it made us believe the worst. Did you see the interview with his teammate, who was the one who was in his bumper trying to push him? Poor kid was white as a ghost. Looked to me ...

If the cut is thick enough (must be 1.5” or thicker), I reverse sear every time. Less than that on the green egg. I insist on seasoning with the salt at least 4 hrs before I cook. Normal routine is to season the night before and then let the beef sit in fridge uncovered all night. I then remove from...

You’ve obviously never tried to suck a cock in a back alley in the middle of winter. Well I have and would have killed for some knee pads.

Local band is named, no shit, yacht rock. Given that this is the Shoals, they are also lights fucking out. They were the band for some dear friends wedding reception last night and it was an unbelievably good time. Whole place was cutting a rug. I’ve said before, but we are truly blessed here when i...

I can’t remember a college receiving corps as good as LSU’s. Burrow puts the ball where it needs to be but they just win every one-on-one matchup downfield. Joe, I’d argue that just this year Alabama had more depth and was as good at the top. Remember the Tide dealt with an injured Tua early in the...

We took a spur of the moment trip to Tunica yesterday, and I couldn’t pass up that Titans money line. Didn’t lay a huge amount, but still a nice little bonus on seeing the titans win.

Be safe Johnnie.

I quite enjoyed that. Roll tide y’all.

I had shingles about 11 years ago. Miserable experience.

Unofficially, this is the first team managed by Allardyce and Ancelotti within a 2-year span.

You misspelled Allardici.

Congrats. Living in the neighborhood you want is critical to me. Tomorrow ends our period of two mortgage payments, fingers crossed. Three years ago we bought a lot on the lake here planning to build. During that period though both the wife and I had job responsibilities change which would have made...
