    Then why am I sitting here looking at material quotes from Phoenix Sheetmetal and A/C Supply Co, Advanced Metal Sales, WW Grainger, and Home Depot to do it? The replacement A/C is an Aerocool TD4801 115vac side draft model. I'm fabricating the stand for it from 1 x 1 x 1/8" A36 angle iron with a primer and almond paint finish.

    Thank great Buddha I am working -UE insurance is like $275 a week - nobody can survive on that
    ROFL Interesting to see you admit unemployment is too low to survive upon. Is that a Freudian slipski, comrade?

    Thankfully, it's been much milder in my life than the lives of friends and family.

Good for me but bad for business owners.
    I have one son that REFUSES to wear a mask. I try to avoid him.
    Him and my other son were going to take their kids to a Haunted House together, but are now fighting over this.
    And ... one of my Tenants got COVID-19, so I meet her OUTSIDE to transact business.

    Meh, good days and not-so-great days. Miss my profs and school friends, miss my hospice patients, miss just hanging out in a little mom-and-pop restaurant downtown. But we're used to isolation, have no visible human neighbors, spend most of our time here. What gives me the most anxiety is worrying about my kids, and fretting because we can't visit right now.

    Except for the renovation part, same here. We actually have more work and have hired more because of this.

    Because you made it all up to lend yourself credibility in a thread where you have none.

    He's depressed and a nihilist. He said that before.

    He doesn't care about anything because he doesn't care about his own life.

    Correct but by his own admission, Trump claims no responsibility, especially for his response to COVID-19. His refusals to admit this, including his walkout on 60 Minutes, all prove Chrissy Teigen's assessment of Trump was correct.

    Gotcha beat: all seasons of "Ozark", "Walking Dead", "Columbo" and another half dozen or more. I have written a partial-biography at my wife's behest, but have decided to take a month off watching all 19 seasons of "Law & Order: SVU" and 5 seasons of "Quantum Leap"....and wasting time here.

    Lately, I've developed taste for Jägermeister. Maybe it's my German ancestry calling my inner child.
