Well, if you know anything about viruses, there's a good chance that it /will/ never go away, like flu never went away. I've always been concerned about the political use of the epidemic, but I'm...

Only things I don't like about winter camping is when I first hit that cold sack and when I have to get up in the middle of the night to pee.

Yeah. Coloradoans go to the store to get what they need. But now about half of us are transplants so the stores empty when the weather services (who can't predict past two days here) says it's gonna...

Hmm...I thought "urban survival pack" was called "Walmart".

Eh, I walk to the store sometimes...

Eh, Colorado is heavy into renewable energy and it's a benefit to us.

Hey, I remember reading a story by Jack London about starting a fire in the snow...the guy died...

Now, I could get nostalgic. Kids used to get all kinds of cool stuff in chemistry sets before they (the chemistry sets, that is) got "safe". If it wasn't in the kit, I could get it at the drugstore...

Coyotes and raptors are about the only folks we have to watch out for. It's nice to not have to dodge Southern deer on the road since I retired to Colorado.

It's out of this world (did I actually type that)?

When I was a kid, we used to eat snow ice cream (snow+cream+sugar) but they told us to stop because of the bomb tests. It snowed in Selma once...

Hmmm...that should be in a fortune cookie!

It's like a hong for the mind! What's the sound of one hong clapping?

Well, come to Denver! It's supposed to go below zero this weekend. I've heard the northern plains have really been "cool". It'll freeze yer hong off!

LOL. I love that one. I haven't had a car since 2014.

Nell, that "no mind at all," thing sounds very Zen. There's a cult in there somewhere.

I figure it's the cyber-version of "Hello. Is your refrigerator running?"

Yeah, I would rather do winter camping. Above 60°, I overheat and sweat profusely, and the heat drains me.

Hmmm...what about "brackish water fly fishing". They probably salt the roads in the winter. "Run-off fly fishing".

If you were in the Denver area, I could recommend a restaurant with salt crusted...

Uh....eh....
(speechless for once)

O.o

Have you guys been selling your worldly treasures? And you didn't tell me? (i want a worldly treasure.)

Around here, people have yard sales (eh...not like Virginia) but they also just put stuff out on the curb for anyone that wants it. My son picked up a great couch the other day. The dingo had eaten...

Heh. Just one more story from...where was that?

My impression is that place is important. Up North, rich folks clean out their homes and replace the things they bought last year. That means that...

How is your wife doing?

Yeah, I'm cursed like that too. If I put stuff on a table, it won't sale. I don't know how people make money at yard sales.

Well, there is that Chinese thing about interesting times.
