Oil took a 21% price jump today.

Ordered a set of Fender Nocaster pickups for my American standard tele. I put them in my MiM Tele a while back and really like the sound. I've nearly rebuilt the American now, fret job, new tuners, new pickups now, put a new bridge and saddles way back. Not much left of the original at this...

Someone I know tried to buy an oximeter recently. I guess people are stocking up due to the virus. Sold out and massive price increase for even cheap ones. Oh this might go in the depression thread. Dare I say I got up and felt almost "happy" today for the first time in a very long time.

I only took one day when I started. I'm going back on it I had to get my days and nights turned around first. No use taking it all night. Now at least I take it in the actual morning instead of 10pm when I was getting up.

Started back on the adderall. I did 5mg. Still kind of sleepy but not as bad. Of course I only got 5 hours of sleep last night and I was laying in the sun probably had a large impact on it.

I've only talked to her a limited time. From the sounds of it she starts drinking about 4pm before her husband gets in at 5 and once he's in bed she's done. She's not out socially drinking from the sounds of it. I really have no idea however. She mentioned several times she never leaves the...

Florida. I do not know if she would go out and get help or not to be honest. She's in a bad situation which most probably is not helping. She is married and has two kids and the youngest reaching 18. In with a family business. Just was wondering if there was anywhere else I could point her. I...

Any advice on alcohol? A distant friend has asked me help point them in the right directin. I know nothing about it in the least. I don't drink. Never known anyone with an issue. At least for right now going someplace for help would be off the table. I guess one good thing is they know they have...

They're opening the Bonnet Carre spillway just above New Orleans again. 4 of the last 5 years they've opened it now. Prior to that 10 openings over last 45 years. Mentioned how big of an algae bloom due to the fertilizer the sent out last year. They did say don't come out and watch this year...

Louisiana end of April I think. I don't expect much curve flattening from the people that work that are exempt.

They arrested the preacher in Baton Rouge today. Didn't shut down the church. Misdemeanor counts for disobeying governors soandso orders in the decleration of an emergy or such and organizing people to break the orders by busing them in. I'm not sure he even was taken into custody. Democratic...

A bunch of pass the buck now. More show up and they had two more stories on the news showing bussloads coming in. It magically changed from a black preacher and 90% black people there to all white now. I learned the suburb has a mayor and a police force, news to me. I bet that totals 2 people.

https://www.wafb.com/2020/03/31/central-mayor-asks-pastor-please-stop-holding-services-safety-public/ Been going on for a while. They were bussing people in revival style for at least 2 weeks. Minority church in an almost all white surburb.

10% acceptance rate probably.

I realize contacts are different but medical prescriptions right now seem like they are throwing a large fudge factor in. Pharmacist told me if I was short or it didn't get OK'd from my insurance in time ask them and they would take care of it. My insurance called and told me the day before the...

Futures down. No surprise at this point.

I assume they were dropping some off in New Orleans and other areas and not just 2,000 in BR from MI. https://www.wafb.com/2020/03/28/ford-donates-face-shields-olol-medical-center/

It only lasted a short time, maybe 4 hours on the first one and then 2 hours when I took a pill after that. Then I felt like I had a little extra and not as much fatigue. It may have went away the longer I took them. No idea like I said I'm changing my days and nights around and not having much...

More infected with it at Dow Chemical and Turner industries says their employee was the one at Exxon. This may spread more in the plants and that what will they do, no idea. Enough missing contractors it becomes even harder to shut down stuff. Turner being the biggest contracter...

I've never even thought about ADHD. I've never had it before but who knows not. I would say I have never been anywhere enar hyperactive in my life, ever and by a large amount never. In fact I had to look that up. I took it two days and it was OK but it did calm me down a fair bit. Not calm as...

These shelter in place or stay at home things aren't much depending on where you are I guess. The one in Louisiana didn't include much for those that couldn't be out and about. Mostly retail, beauty shops, clothing stores and that kind of stuff. People who were exclude that go into work was all...

I saw it earlier but now I lost where I found it. Louisiana had the fastest rate of increase of any state and any country now. Found it. https://www.ktre.com/2020/03/22/governor-edwards-issues-stay-at-home-order-effective-march/ Louisiana has the fastest growth rate of the coronavirus in any...

Futures limited down.

Someone I now that works at the Dow Chemical plant got an email from work saying they would get some kind of ID or note they could show "someone" while driving back and forth to work during the shelter in place. I can't imagine who they would show it to unless you got stopped for something else...

I looked it up, it's a side effect for some people with ADHD, I don't think that would be me. Late in the day after the second one I got a little motivated. I still got super sleepy for about an hour after I took it then just really really calm sitting around on the phone, got out and walked...

National guard and military to setup a number of mobile hospitals with 1,000 beds in NY, CA, and WA.

I think they have much fewer cases. The amount of people on the road at 6-7am is not going to drop a whole lot I imagine, at least early on with all the plant workers till they get it figured out what is going down. From the list it looks like what we are supposed to be doing already except no...

Louisiana going to a full shutdown deal, just heard. No link as of yet.

I finally started on the adderall today. I've never been so sleepy in my life. I laid down for several hours and didn't move. I may lay back down again a little later. It may be the best thing for I go days on end with no sleep. Not exactly as planned but whatever.

Retirement community worker tested positive. Not good, it's a pretty large place. https://www.wafb.com/2020/03/22/st-james-place-staffer-tests-positive-coronavirus/

Yeah all oil companies were already in the dumps, then the opec/Russian war, then the virus.

They had a fire but they never shut down. Exxon in BR is not just a refinery. It's refinery/chem plant adjacent to each other along with 2 other speciality plants. The refinery produces the power to support the chem plant. Any extra power they sell off to the local utility company. Operators...

This is pretty big in the petrochemical world. They normally don't even reduce staff/workforce during hurricanes and instead shut in. Same with the nuke plants. https://www.wafb.com/2020/03/20/exxonmobil-taking-steps-reduce-staff-limit-spread-covid-/

I tried to search youtube, but youtube search is borked right now, error.

Was thinking about starting. Trade macro is totally dead now just price lookup? I used to show the colors on sockets since I'm colorblind. Anyway I haven't followed th league was sick and such. What is working for a build type this league. I need something super easy, no need to push the end...
