QuoteMan, they really hustle!

It must have been really quick, I haven't seen an airplane fly over the house since early this morning.....

The cows must not understand social distancing, especially when it comes to me touching their new babies, which ironically enough I am vaccinating for bovine corona virus.

The rest of the world it seems have lost their minds.

I wonder if that works on humans??   You could be famous.......

I can think of a few people I would like to try it on, at least I would be infamous.

Week 3 - walked into an almost empty office this morning.  All the ops people are on reduced hours now, guess if there are no ops going on you don't need them.  Up to 92 parked airplanes now, which is keeping me busier than expected because for some reason, they feel the need to move them around.  Then we have to go looking for them.  There are more managers and directors wandering around here now than anyone else.  Probably why nothing is getting done.  The weirdest thing today is that the Muzak has been shut off in the terminal. 

Best moment of the weekend - the grandkids were over yesterday.  The 7 year old grandson walks into the garage and asks me for some tape.  He and the 10 year old grandson taped a cellphone to a radio control car and were chasing themselves around the house with it, taking video the whole time.  I told them they were messed up and without skipping a beat, the 7 year old replied, "It's pretty cool isn't it?  We're just like you!"

And --- there was toilet paper on the shelves at Wally World yesterday!!  Not much, and it's the cheap stuff, but it was there.  Gives me hope for the canned rutabagas coming back....

Only 46 flights today.  Do you have any extra lava lamps, Nony?   :disturbed:

Between 225 and 250 depending on what day it is. 

I'm hearing nasty rumors that the government wants airline stock in exchange for the bailout, hope that doesn't happen.  Nationalized airlines don't sound like much of a good idea to me....

I notice that certain governmental entities are pulling a decades old "climate change" trick on the peasantry, and keep moving the "3 weeks and we're out of this" line ahead every week. The statement doesn't change, but the timeline moves up at least another week. Now some of them, like Dallas, are holding their citizenry hostage until May 20. Next week, do NOT be surprised to see June 1 as their Day of Liberation...

Methinks we're being had.

Of course we are! In this day of whatever-the-social-conscious-flavor-of-the-week-is, can you imagine any government agency, at any level, wanting to be the first to say it's okay to go outside?

I really hope somewhere, someone is looking for a "cure" to stop this thing..........

Yep, I am amazed how many people think this "will be over in couple of weeks" even though we have been in it for longer already and the govt demanding things just increases.  Also almost shocking, especially from the left that how many people are actually mad that trump is not acting like the dictator they claimed he was from the start to keep them 'safe'.

24 flights today. 

We were informed by our director and HR last night that several people who work in here tested positive for the virus last week, which explains why no one is left in here.  It was nice of them to tell us that in a timely manner, I guess company image comes before all else.  Fortunately, I didn't have any direct contact with any of them, and since I sit in the farthest corner of the bunker, I really don't have much contact with anyone except my crew.  Fingers crossed, I feel fine, but it is a bit unnerving.  For once in my life, my anti-social tendencies are working in my favor...  :eek5:

I wonder if Wally World sold out of lava lamps?
