Cool, thanks jj, didn't think u guys had the same. Don't get much out of state you know.

There is a cave in hill country, not to far from here, they come out of the ground in a tornado effect. Farmers that direction keep houses to help them with crops too. Which is cool.

How are those scissors these days?

Ever wanna see a bat tornado, come to Texas there are 2 spots here where thousands and thousands of bats are. One collection is under a bridge near Austin and they show up on radars down here. They're both amazing sights to see. And if u want fresh poop u can get that to.

I was in Austin for the Solar Challenge (solar car race) and I seem to recall a sign about the bats but we did not have time to do any sightseeing.

Lets see....the cruise was cancelled...I should be bellied up to a bar in the Bahamas right now, instead of isolating alone in my home.

The Breo inhaler I decided to skip for now. Not sure if I had a reaction to the flu shot or what but I have not felt right, but no cough or fever so hopefully it's just a cold...Plus I'm a huge hypochondriac sometimes I think, lol. Thank God for xanax...

I'm still kicking, so far...I'm not in NYC, I'm a few hours away from there, thankfully!! Thanks for asking!!

We have bats in the neighborhood at dusk here.
Last summer I started noticing hoards of dragon flies showing up late in the day a few hours before the bats showed up.
At 1st I was like cool, my switch the way I treat my landscape was paying off not killing the good bugs.
I could see them swoop down and take a bug out of the air when I had the angle to see the tiny bugs in the reflected sunlight.
Turns out it was summer and the house purchased as an investment next door allowed their pool to go green and a mosquito issue developed, after knowing the problem I spotted mosquitos all over. My cellar spiders were having a party, it was a cellar spider baby boom that was actually cool.
Called the county and it was resolved quickly. Didn't give too shits about contacting the owner if they were going to allow something like that. A conversation would not have went well. No problems other than that and I have been in contact with the owners sister who lives there part time since with no issues and never mentioned it to her. If they were wondering who called it would be obvious from the angle of the pictures taken by the inspector.
Cellar spiders were probably depressed afterwards but all is well unless we have to go through it again this summer.

When I was very young, and very energetic, I'd chase them around my backyard with a broom. Never hit a one of them. They are fun flyers to watch.

When I was a little boy, just outside Bakersfield, we would find a dead bat on the playground, at least a couple of times a year..
Someone would usually end up grabbing a stick and invariably throw the bat into the hair of the closest bystander.
Before the bat assaulted child could find an authority figure to tattle, the process was usually repeated numerous times with a few brave boys picking up the bat with their bare hands, squashing it, kicking it before being stopped by a teacher.

The bat was then collected and sent to a lab for testing. The children involved were later pulled from class and sent to the nurse for further analysis, if the bat tested positive for rabies.
Supposedly, all the bats in Kern County would test positive for rabies. So any child with cuts on their hands would then recieve the battery of injections in their stomach to cure them of a possible case of rabies.

Let the price gouging begin!! Just went for a gallon of generic bleach. Last week it was $2.99...this week $4.99 for the same exact bottle! And the governor said he wouldn't allow price gouging. :roll: Hand sanitizer is no where to be found...Supposedly the state has prisoners MAKING it now, but it's not for sale to the public. Hey, at least people are finally washing their hands...well at least some people.

I don't think this person is worried about washing there hands although they definitely should be, lol. A buddy shared this to me earlier. Imagine using the pump after that, unbeknownst to the fuckery that just took place
