  1. I got both of my Pfizer shots now. First shot made my arm hurt like hell. Enough to wake me up twice the first night after I got it. I would suggest that if you're side sleeper, take which side you normally sleep on into consideration when they ask you which arm you want the shot in. Second shot didn't hurt my arm nearly as bad. I was lucky to not feel any other symptoms on my second shot, but most people told me it was rough, so I didn't have any alcohol for about 48 hours, kept well hydrated, and took 2 advil every 4-5 hours. I'm 43
  2. Really hoping my 65" Bravia A90J 4K OLED shows up today!
  3. On the topic of Taxes - I've been thinking about Amazon Vine and wondering how much I didn't actually need this year
  4. Back in July, on one of my morning runs, I see a lady on the sidewalk and she goes to cross the street as I approached (myself unmasked) and the from the middle of the street, she yells at me for not wearing a mask. I tell her exercising outdoors is exempted, and to worry about herself. 30 minutes later as I return, she's coming down the sidewalk the other direction, holding a trekking pole like a spear and threatening me with it. So this time I actually go back after her to give her what-for. She said I was threatening her by not wearing a mask, but somehow that abstract threat was more real than her direct threat, and there was plenty of room to move away on the sidewalk if you were nervous. Never in my life have I wanted more to lay out an old bag with a solid punch.
  5. I should have kept reading before I replied. I think working from home will become more popular as long as Remote Learning doesn't become the norm. Remote learning is HARD. I think having an "office" is going to become a very big selling point for homes in the future. I want to convert my girlfriend's very large, and somewhat awkward bedroom (about 10.5' x 25') into a more normal size bedroom with a small office/nursery next to it. I think having that separate space would be more appealing to buyers than such a large bedroom.
  6. I don't think that's true. I've been working from home for 2-1/2 years, and I'm anything but an introvert. However, until March, I structured my life that I was meeting up with different groups 3-4 days a week after work. Running groups on Monday, Tuesday and Saturday usually (or skiing on Saturdays in winter), with occasional happy hour groups on Wednesdays or Thursdays, including the odd running group some Thursdays. It is hard not seeing faces, but it's not too hard to do things like go get coffee before work, go out for lunch (or meet a friend for lunch), take a walk in the neighborhood. If you have a routine that puts you in front of people, it becomes easy. I think the bigger challenge for many people is managing distractions at home. Piece of cake when I was single and living alone. Now that I'm living with my girlfriend and her kids, it's TOUGH to stay focused with a crying baby, home schooling, kids harassing the cats, etc.
  7. Yup. Seems like a good human being, but holy shit - NO ONE needs to peacock as hard as that jackass does. What the hell is he trying to prove? Can he really be so insecure that he needs to draw that much attention to himself? I just don't understand how he can be such a tasteless fool.
  8. I'd be more mad that Cam won than that the Patriots won.

    SpecDubC - do you live near Kipling and 285? Wondering if that's you I've seen on a few of my runs. Guessing not, unless you were rather quick to do the swap!
  10. Ha! Ditto! I support primarily: Trucking/Logistics companies, Energy Utilities, some Medical Services businesses and already worked from home, so no change there. Drove out to Utah on 3/11, skied 3/12 at Park City, took Friday off due to being dehydrated, skied about 5 runs at Snowbasin Saturday 3/14 but nearly all the lifts were wind-stopped, and started driving home after seeing that Colorado closed all resorts and Vail announced all North American resorts closed Also ditto! And my original point wasn't about this one 51 minute video, it's that Nils posts 47 different 51 minute videos daily. Nils is a bot!
  11. 51 minutes?! Where the hell do you find the free time for this stuff?
  12. I have encountered PPE in at least 3 prior jobs: During college when I worked in a Photo Lab (remember those?!) and was mixing large amounts of bleach and other chemicals. Industrial Power Transmission and Conveyor sales - where I would end up in every kind of industry and PPE covered Fall Protection, Eye Protection, Hearing Protection, Respiratory Protection, Chemical Protection, Radiation Protection, Burn Protection - damn near any kind of workplace accident you can imagine was one I was exposed to Industrial and Commercial HVAC sales - Much of the above scenarios, but not all of them I think you'd have to be living under a rock or at least very limited life experience to have avoided the term entirely
  13. Huh - it was around March 12th that I recall thinking "oh great, as a society we've moved away from using filthy paper money and instead we have to use filthy touch screens for every transaction" I am surprised by how many places are still requiring inputs on a screen or actual signatures
  14. How has the new thread failed to generate 47 poop replies already?
  15. On the speeding issues, I do support for an international GPS/Telematics provider. In a conference call today, they shared this: Big data anomaly due to COVID-19 and stay-at-home orders: There has been an uptick in high energy crashes among the commercial sector (not percentage, actual total number). The data analysts didn't believe the numbers at first but it made more sense when they dug into the data. Because there is little to no traffic on the roads, the people who are on the roads are speeding more, and thus when the accidents are happening, they're happening at greater speeds and are causing more severe vehicle damage and/or injury.
