Coffee time and a little cold pizza for breakfast. Then off to Home Depot.
Pretty good quote from Mark Cuban on paying the hourly arena workers: "It was one of the first things that crossed my mind, in that, when we postponed games, those folks who do all the jobs you mentioned aren't going to get paid. People who are working by the hour aren't going to get paid," Cuban explained. "So, we put together a program where we're going to pay them as if those games took place. We would have had a game coming up tomorrow, and we'll pay them as if that game happened." |

Just cancelled the trip to Champaign. Snowing like crazy there now. They're supposed to get 5-8"? WTF??
So no stocking up on cheap Jameson.

I accelerated the ordering of some parts for my Z4MC, most of which is currently up on jackstands (some of it is spread out in other parts of the garage). I'm anticipating a quarantine of shipped packages and wanted to be sure I had all the bits to put the car back together. Should keep me around the house and occupied so I don't have to spend time lamenting F1 race cancellations. |

But yeah, woke at 7 for a training, our guy was snowed in so we had to cancel it. It's really coming down! Let me know if you need something from down here; I wouldn't mind doing a trip to Binny's or something and just sleeping on some stuff until you can come down edit: drinks with her went well last night, came by my place first so i was kinda thinking she would leave after but i'm glad we still got drinks and got to know her a bit more. Pretty interesting girl; she's in school for advertising and worked at a concrete company last summer. A 5' tall sorority girl was not someone I was thinking of having conversations about concrete |

Unfortunately it will be an order since this is one of those things that don't sit on lots.

France to close all restaurants, cafes, cinemas and clubs due to coronavirus https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/14/world...res/index.html
No need to have a crystal ball, what these guys in Italy and France are going through we will soon. I have no hobbies, video games just the old stuff, DIY projects I will break it and exercise lol @ my specialty sandwich shop near my parents house "Chicago hotdogs & Italian beef sandwiches" to drop off, I asked how is business? He said ok from all the people that grab take out like you, THANKS! Off topic: grocery stores around here: one night are low but another night almost normal just no TP and cleaning supplies, as soon as people quit panic shopping things will be ok/decent Update: my wife just told me other than a long line all the groceries were stocked (almost) like an average day (good sign imo) |

Haven't heard from my brother in about a week. We usually text every couple of days at least. I asked him today if everything was ok and he says, "yeah, just doing Bike Week."
Now that's the spirit!
