I felt about 2 minutes of sparse raindrops cutting the lawn this eve. Dust Bowl days are here again!

Cmon man! Where the Sizzle?

Play nice people...I continue to hear a lot of Bunko from both sides. I have otherwise intelligent friends who have seemingly become anti-vaxxers over C19. OTOH, no shortage of people on the other side that continue to push the (big media's) misinformation that there is anything but a vanishingly small risk of getting seriously sick or transmitting C19 after full vaccination. Hence the number of people we see in their cars, alone, with masks fully pulled up. Which is of course, their right to do so. Sigh.

I could use some serious rain to top off the pool, otherwise I'll be calling the water truck. The heat is nice though for a change. Sizzle Sizzle.

Anyone noticing the carnage in crypto's? Ether down 20% overnight. Was as high as $4400, now down to $2800. BTC has already corrected at least that much. Not sure whether to be bummed that I didnt cash in over $4000 or be glad that it looks like another long term buying opp. I was doing taxes recently and the thought crossed my mind to sell but...i have viewed my holdings as a LT project and glad I didnt have to claim any gains on my taxes since I didnt have any sell transactions, so I held everything. The Musk and environmental nonsense over crypto mining is just that...nonsense from addled minds. We shall see...

Congrats! I had my 2nd Pfizer shot almost a month ago. Basically just a sore arm for a day following both shots. Of course now my DNA will be changed and I'll turn into a three headed monster. Of course, some say I'm already there. Will be interesting to see the public reaction to new guidelines, as well as businesses. I can say this...if there's a choice between patronizing a continued Covid Theatre business and a similar one that calls it off, I'll be patronizing the one with no mask requirements.

It was starting to Sizzle yesterday. Need MOAR!

Well, not an expert here of course and I havent followed the "Sh*tcoins" closely but the pattern with Ether and BTC the past couple of years has been to wait for, and then buy the effing dip...

Wut?? Are you people not believing "the Science"???

Could be some minor slushy snow in the hills. Speaking of which, there was snowfall in Manchester England just prior to the Man City v Real Madrid Champions League 2nd leg semif-final soccer match Tuesday. I turned the game on and was shocked to see the pitch was lightly covered in snow. I have to think that's quite unusual there in rainy old England.

There is a light frost. I left a tomato and pepper plant out on the front stoop but they weren't affected fortunately.

This is why i hate people. Last year it was bleach so they could lather themselves in it, now this.

Yeah, its a nice gain, still unrealized as i haven't sold, and i won't be able to retire on this by any means but Raoul Pal, someone i follow at RealVision, really thinks this stuff is going much much higher. So far he's been right.

Leery of the parabolic moves as they usually end up reversing hard but I think there's a solid LT case for crypto given the macro fiscal background. I just haven't dabbled in the Sh*tcoins, sticking with Ether and BTC itself for now.

I bought 10 Ether coins on Coinbase last June at $265. My only regret is not buying more. I did get my son and ex-wife to buy some last fall so they are pleased. I've held it in my wallet there and not spent any as i look at this as a longer term crapshoot. Plus, no taxes if you don't spend or sell...IRS treats sales as capital gain much like an equity.

I had my 2nd Pfizer shot 10 days ago. I went out drinking that night. Drank a bunch of water also. Bit hungover the next day but other than that, no after effects. Not that getting vaccinated gets you anything cuz muh, masks 4Ever, but I did get a free drink at a bar for showing my 2nd vaccination card. So there's that.

50s for HT's suck. Good for nothing. Looking forward to 100 degree heat.

We still have mid 60s to mid 70s (Wed) in forecast. Hope it holds. Golf league starts wednesday. Could be rare good timing for starting so early.

I heard they're hiring in the Buffalo south towns and offering real estate incentives and tax free living. I'm lying, but my next step is starting a GoFundMe to relocate your ass.

That's disappointing but maybe it will enable an early start to the 2021-22 snow season and we can manage to break 90" again, like back in the Halcyon days of yore.

I've got a measurable snowcover this a.m. Total of just under 2" including what fell and melted yday. Not quite enough for 80" total for the season. I'll have to wait for the May snows to roll thru for that.

There's aways May!

When do we hit 70s again? This was always a joke storm for Syr area with little accumulation.

I lump it all together since mid Dec to mid Jan is like Spring Break here lately! My CNY Spring grade assumes an F! Nowhere to go but F-?

I need 3.6" to reach 80" and about a foot to get to last season's paltry totals. If this thing gets us to 80" I'd consider going from D- to D for the winter. I had to drop a half grade based on the April Fools Fake storm but I'm open to late remedial assignments...
