I wouldn't get your hopes up just yet, Ohio's governor might not let any group functions happen this year.

Kyle Larson got fired for the N word during a mic check for an Iracing race https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2020/04/14/kyle-larson-fired-chip-ganassi-racing/ Seriously. I think this was blown way out of proportion especially considering probably 90% of the rap songs have that word in them. Of course he shouldn't have said it in the first place but to basically lose everything because of it is utter nonsense but then again this is the P.C. era where everything is offensive.

Well I'll never order from Bob Evans again for a holiday meal, think I'm done eating anything from their restaurants. Finally got the meal 3 hours after it was supposed to be ready. To top it off only got half the meal so I ate Arby's instead and let my dad and wife eat the Bob Evans meal. Bob Evans Facebook and Twitter are still getting blown up right now . I went back first thing this morning and got the rest of the meal since they didn't even bother calling me last night and still hadn't refunded the full price to my account. The manager today said she's got a lot of apologies to call in for the screw ups the crew made yesterday.

Every state that borders Ohio has price gouging laws as do most states in the US. Gas was $1.05/gal here a few weeks ago but now has crept back up to the $1.20's. it was hard to believe it only cost $7 to fill the tank in my car and $12 to fill the wife's a few weeks ago. I know it will be cheap for only a short time but it's nice not blowing $50 to fill both tanks.

Happy Easter y'all. Was supposed to be eating Easter dinner now but thanks to the panic buyers local stores were sold out of all the hams except the $30+ ones for the past few weeks. The local Bob Evans was supposed to have our order ready at 2 but they're apparently 2-3 hrs behind today. Been snacking on ritz's instead lol.

If your state has laws against price gouging thank your lawmakers. Ohio doesn't and stores are taking advantage of it. $13 for a 6 roll paper towel pack is nuts. Last month before all the panic buying that same pack of paper towels was $6.99. Loaf of wonder bread went up a dollar. Packs of water have gone up so much that we bought a faucet water filter. And toilet paper well let's just say I'm glad we bought a big pack in February. I really feel for the seniors on a fixed income because they'll barely afford to buy enough food for a week with what used to buy them a months worth in January or February.

Never say never. I never thought we would have snow in June but about 5 or 6 years ago it did.

Weather took a swing back to winter and looks like it will be this way till next weekend. Unfortunately there's some good chances for frost next week and yesterday I cleaned up the patio and got the leaves out of the pots so now I got to figure out a way to cover the plants that have come up already overnight next week. Finished my seed starting yesterday as well. Gonna try corn again, have a bunch of tomato's and a couple of cucumbers. Just got to figure out where I'm gonna plant them at my dad's garden.

I've never heard of the term before this past Sunday, must be some new term the techie kids came up with . It's been a few years since I got mad enough to quit a game. Roger if you like simpler games I recommend any of the Lego ones, especially the ones based in movie franchises like Indiana Jones or Jurassic Park, they are fun to play and replay and the cutscenes are hilarious.

Well Bubba Wallace learned an expensive lesson...https://sports.yahoo.com/bubba-wallace-loses-real-sponsor-154630588.html . I "rage quit" a few times when racing online and I'll say that ended up hurting my season standings more than just finishing the races even if I would have finished in last place. I remember one race where I got wrecked on the 1st lap and went a lap down while getting repaired in the pits but I decided to help my teammate win the race and in doing so I ended up getting back on the lead lap and finished 3rd. We were great drafting partners and stuck to each other like glue which the other racers didn't do.

That's a funny episode though. I finished binge watching the first season last week. Well i knew it was going to happen and it finally did yesterday , access to one of the local rivers was closed due to too many fisherman too close to each other due to the walleye run. The city didn't come out and say you couldn't fish there but they banned all parking and the park in town closed all parking along the river. Won't be too long before the rest of the access points and parks down river will be closed too since the fisherman will just move to the next access point. I hope the restrictions lift after the walleye run is over.

Roger reading these reviews really makes me want to watch them again especially now that I have glasses and notice things in the background that I didn't before. But I'm gonna have to lay the blame on you when my wife yells at me for binge watching the series again .

WOW (need more thumbs up emojis). You should enter that in a scale model show, if it don't win 1st place I don't know what will. Just amazing work.

I've seen some crazy on Facebook but the picture I seen over the weekend that one of my wife's relatives took or shared takes the cake. It was a picture of some of the home made masks people were wearing in a grocery store. One of the pics a mother and her child were wearing a plastic grocery bag over there heads. It was not photoshoped either. When god was handing out brains that mother must've been last in line. In another pic a couple had always pms pads strapped to their faces and in another pic a lady had a plastic storage container on her head. If you don't have a bandana just cut a bandana sized cloth out if an old shirt, fold it up and tie it around your nose and mouth.

That's good to hear you guys. Same goes for me too, none of my family or friends have it yet but according to the local news the ZIP code I live in has the highest cases in the county. Needless to say the wife and I are going to take some extra precautions when we go grocery shopping this weekend. We tried going for a walk in one of the nearby parks today but couldn't because they were full so we just came back home and took a stroll through the neighborhood. Even though the playgrounds are closed that didn't stop people from going under or over the caution tape so it probably won't be long before the parks will be closed to everyone. Even though the governor hasn't banned fishing state wide yet it isn't stopping some city's and towns from banning fishing in their jurisdictions. Fremont has banned fishing till further notice, said fishermen will only get one warning and after that they will get fined. So get out while you can if you enjoy fishing. Stay healthy.

Heard on the news earlier that Ohio Governor is thinking about closing the border with Michigan. I don't know how the heck he can do it as there is so many roads that cross the border and even then someone could just cross the Michigan/Indiana border and come into Ohio that way. I still haven't had a full nights sleep in weeks even though I've stopped watching the news except for a quick 15 minutes in the morning and that's just mainly to hear what the weather will be for the day. I got to find some way to get a full 7+ hours of sleep in. Grocery shopping here is becoming hit and miss with all the crazy panic buyers. Saturday for instance the Butter section was completely emptied, one of the employees said Friday night people came in and grabbed as much butter as they could. And Toilet Paper, if you don't get there when the stores open and make a mad dash to that aisle you're not getting any. I can't wait for this insanity to end...
