    Go for it if your not worried about getting sick. Zero traffic. I just ran from Richmond to Brunswick in 8 hours down 95. Strange times. There were so few trucks on the road everyone was waving at each other. Plus if it all goes to hell in a hand basket tomorrow fuel is so cheap 100 bucks will get you home from almost anywhere. I haven't stopped for three weeks. I hate what's happening because I know a freight crash is looming, but man I'm digging this no traffic thing.
    Fla is the anamole. They are road checking fleeing New Yorkers. They should have thought about that 30 years ago. It's a little late now.

    Thank all those lovely folks deciding to party an hang out in large groups since the start of this til this past weekend. While it's not the end of the world, you should still use some #### commonsense.

    I seen they've had to resort to giving people tickets for fines to get them to listen. Here on the sandbar you find a few folks on the beach but their all either exercising. taking a walk alone or with their pets. No groups, etc. Lots of social distancing as they call it

    HA!

    "Why, what did she tell you?"
    "I don't know, I didn't listen.”

    I'm not sure people can sit at home long enough. Most people only have a few weeks of funds in the bank. When people do come out, it's just going to start all over again.

    Is it too early for a tattoo?

    Oh I agree. But there are ways to be outside an not be an idiot gotta use some #### common sense.

    I know one thing that won't change due coronavirus...Some people will still be stupid.

    Go with the tat. Anyone complains smack them on the funny bone.

    ;)

    Don't let a virus ruin a sense of humor. Laughter is the best medicine after all.

    Ive messed with the valves. They're both open. I spent an hour siphoning about 23gal of fuel from the left tank to the right tank, went inside showered up, came back out and now the dang thing will only idle for about 5min then it dies. No fault code is coming up and it'll restart only to die again.

    Im over it. Im going to sleep and Im gonna call a shop in the morning.
