Don’t need to worry about closing the economy down there.

But it’s good for business, the plywood business.

As an aside there is a lumber shortage, at least we are experiencing one here in SW PA. A couple homes in my development are sitting with open foundations because the all the lumber is on backorder from a significantly large lumber company.

It’s not looking pretty.

Remember to thank Deblasio and Cuomo on your way out.

LOL saw the Antifa goes to Sturgis 6 of the idiots show up there to protest need a ring of cops to protect them from getting the hell beat out of them. Then one of the idiots tries to kick a bike and the cops throw him to the ground and arrest him. Though maybe the cops should have told the group sorry because you want to defund us we don't have the man power to protect you any longer we need to go somewhere else bye!

Trump making a very bad decision here. I predict this will backfire on him badly.



This is going to piss a lot of voters off.

What are you talking about?

The post office is not shutting down. The post office is not slowing down; nothing abnormal is happening with the post office. Packages are being delivered as they always have been, always are. Plenty of money to run for a good long time.

You're being misled.

Hundreds of thousands without power at first and still plenty without. 100+ mph winds with virtually no warning. So many acres of crops completely flattened, trees and power lines down all over the state.
Crazy times.
Anyways just catching up on things. Orange man still bad? Geech still getting his news from facebook and Instagram? Jd, Jojo and Heely still crazy?
Sadly we lost one of our cats a day ago. We came home in the evening to find the cats food and water scattered across the kitchen floor and no Jasmine (our kitty) to be found. She had been prone to seizures and we thought maybe she had one which caused the food/water mess. Typically when she had a seizure she would come out if it but would act very confused like she didn't recognize her home or us for about an hour. We figured she must have got out the cat door leading out to the deck, wandered off and got lost. She rarely ever left the confines of the deck. I spent several hours that night walking the neighborhood but it was late so I didn't feel right shining a flashlight in everybody's yard. Unfortunately she was almost completely deaf as well and since it was late I couldn't yell out her name while looking for her. Never found her that night.
The next day I went to the local shelters to see if she'd been picked up but no luck. On the way home I drove around the neighborhood to see if I could find her or ask anyone I saw if they had seen her. Sadly about 2 blocks away I found her in the street and she had been hit by a car and didn't survive.
Sorry to go off topic but I figured I could also add her picture, and everybody loves cat pictures, right?
I also wanted to add that one of my coworkers is sick and has tested positive for the virus.
Found this out from another coworker. Funny thing is, my company has been strictly enforcing all the covid stuff, masks, social distancing, and nonstop emails, notes and meetings about it. Now that someone has tested positive.....crickets.
Sorry for the long post but I'm making up for lost time.
So far 2020 really sucks a big one.
Hope you all enjoy your weekend, I'm working 12's the next 3 days. YUCK.

Edit to add, RIP Jazz, you will be missed.

So sorry about about Jazz Astros

[gopherfan]

Astros,

Sorry to hear bout your cat, Jazz.

I have always had pets, and I understand the pain one goes through when you lose one. Hope that Jazz is in a good place now.

I also hope all is okay for you after those big storms. Some awesome pictures.

A ton of commentary out there on leaving NYC. This one came across my Twitter feed this morning.

Promotes Pedo-Ring Conspiracy Theories. Now They’re Stealing Kids.

Must be over the target with the media spinning crazy stories like this. You’ll have to point me in the direction where Q says CPS is stealing kids.

Meanwhile, most of the media ignores the guy that worked on Muellers team and is pleading guilty to altering a document so it appeared Carter Page was NOT working with the CIA. This allowed the FBI to continue spying on him for being a “Russian asset” as well as the rest of the Trump campaign. Q actually talked about the spying and FISA corruption quite a bit.

Can confirm the same on the other southern corner of PA. My dad was bitching to me that 4x4 pressure treated posts are out of stock everywhere. Although I do know that stuff is being built because he certainly isn’t out of work.

[tpeichel34]

Two years ago, Q started talking about the problems with the Carter Page FISA and how it was used to spy on the President. Mueller's team knew Carter Page was working for the CIA but they kept claiming he was a Russian asset and that the Steele Dossier was verified intelligence, so they could continue spying.

People on here regurgitating the attacks on Q also seem to believe that Russian Collusion was real. Serious question. Why would you believe the media at this point after they duped you for three years?

I'm not sure what Q is, but I do know that people following Q have been much better informed on Russian collusion than those that have not.

Re_review important.

'KNOWINGLY' used FALSE intelligence?
Think HRC [paid for] FAKE DOSSIER [bulk].
Think Steele > BO [post FBI firing] intel collection.
Think DOJ/FBI classified leaks to FAKE NEWS > insert into FISA app in effort to provide 'new sources'.
Think PDB placement by BRENNAN to AUTHENTICATE source as credible.
Think BO >>> WEISSMANN 'regular updates' re: Steele [Firewall][Mueller]

Settle down chap. Let's put the brakes on.



It's all about perception. And the perception is trump is behind this, and screwing up the mail, screwing up people getting their meds, and above all, their SS checks.



The dems will bleed this dry until election day.

[packman80]

Dems can't deny before COVID the economy was doing well for over 3 years under Trump. Under Biden and the Dems tax and environment plant it is going to kill the economy and will see very high unemployment and the stock market losses will be huge. But then again the Dems thinking is orange man bad we don't care what happens to the country as long as orange man is out.

Then anything and everything can hurt Trump because the spin can be anything and everything.

Look how many threads were created on this forum because people think that Trump is trying to shut down the post office to stop an election. It's insanity.

Let's be honest, trump isn't helping the situation.


All he has to do is hold a brief press conference saying he wants the USPS to continue, he will support it, etc.


Instead: crickets.



I for one think we should cut the post-office budget slightly, eliminate saturday delivery, (except for essential mail) etc. But that would go over like a big fart in church.

The Post office gets no tax money to help it run. So you are going to want to take more money away so they lose more money and make things even worse for them to try to run things?

Trump does address this stuff, though: https://youtu.be/mU3bSrQ0gFM

I agree on eliminating Saturday delivery, so long as that helps the post office and doesn’t hurt it. I don’t know the ins and outs of its finances.

When a booming economy means rising rent and stagnant wages it kinda clouds your excitement.

And, like clockwork. The pitchforks come out.


I think eliminating Saturday delivery would be fantastic. I can wait another day to get my packages, bills and sports cards. Probably 99.9% of everyone in the US can.


If that means cutting money, guess I'm the bad guy.

I would be fine with 2-3 days a week service (at least first class mail). Upcharge for "Off day" delivery. Honestly, I really don't need my mailman to show up any more often than my garbage man.
