Five Seasons

Also thinking of starting an indoor herb garden... once legal of course.

lettuce and spinach are sprouting in my starter trays. Eggplant and sweet peppers haven't shown themselves yet, but those buggers seem to take forever.

this morning has been good thus far

yawn

yeah my lack of travel wasn't by choice either. Nobody could travel for either of the companies i've worked for during this thing unless emergency. I wouldn't have really wanted to travel anyhow. Not because of fear of safety on planes but the hotel and eating situations sucked.

i googled the cost of that scope for giggles. wow

It's sad one has to feel like they'd need to hide, but that doesn't change reality. Sad times...

PS I don't see anyone getting their shit vandalized for a flag decal. But Trump and other political stuff like F cumo opens the door.

You're not the same as this guy You're doing nothing wrong. I also wouldn't be surprised if you find your truck keyed some day. Both things can be true in 2021 is all I'm saying. Advertise your political opinions to the world, whether it's truck decal or if you're a professional athlete on social media or fortune 100 company and you're protected under the 1st amendment from being prosecuted, but you will still deal with the consequences right or wrong. Could be a keyed door, could be the loss of sponsorship or could be a boycott of your product. That's just how it goes.

i'm sure none of you play COD Warzone, but that followup shot reminded me a lot of finishing off a downed enemy. Very cool and suspenseful video. Man that 20x zoom is rough though.

maybe, i don't know the details. You fly a flag or have a bumper sticker? Do you also have 16 other bumper stickers with topics ranging from jesus to pro-life etc?

they do want conflict though. This is a direct reaction to what many feel is unjustified and a step too far with regards to defunding the police and other movements. So they're also exercising their right to protest. And here in this divided america it's almost always ending in violence. Yay for my kids future...

Realized I never followed up on my 2nd shot. I received my phizer at the NYS fair 2 Wednesdays ago at 1pm. I drank a shit ton of water the day before and day of. Felt fine the whole day and most of the next. Now I had back to back meetings for about 7 hours so that may have some impact on it, but around 4pm I hit an energy wall. No chills, no shakes or headaches just energy drain. Not lay on the couch energy drain but not excited to do or think much. Woke up on Friday and felt good as new. I have a business trip to Chicago in 2 weeks and another the last week in April. I haven't flown since march of 2020 and I've never been so excited haha!

It's a fair analogy, but maybe pushing it a little. Do you think this guy was just passing through a protest and caught off guard though? I doubt it. He heard about the protest and took his stickered out truck to them. If I had a daughter I'd advise her against wearing revealing clothing in a dark alley next to a bar at 3am too. Neither this guy or the girl would be guilty if attacked I think we agree there. But there's also a thing in life called risk management. My college buddies and I had a saying. Nothing good happens when you're out after 2am. Play the odds, like most of us do and most of us don't end up in viral videos...

notice how he also complies peacefully with their instruction vs the other side which would have resulted in the cops getting pummeled with piss bottles.

lets be honest though, it's more than just american flags on that guys truck and he knows what he's inviting just the same as antifa knows what they're doing. nobody is innocent here. This isn't just some old guy trying to get to his card game.

there's no mods left man. welcome to the downward spiral of this forum

I dont think that guy would face any charges. He was being threatened with pepper spray and had bottles and shit thrown at him and his windows broken. Heck that may have even held up in NY. These antifa clowns all geared up in black with helmets like they don't know what they're doing. PS not keeping one in the pipe? shameful.

yeah it seems the majority of the cases where money is lost falls back to greed. 3+ month options are pricey but a much better chance to not lose your ass like I did on my 3 week aapl's haha.

yeah i've been buying sub $200 calls lately and just making smaller gains here and there. Not for the faint of heart. It's hard not to see this as anything other than gambling even with good dd. I have good DD that gonzaga is going to win the tournament. How is that different? haha.

twas my goal to get to a stream with the boys today but not in this weather. Probably Saturday for us.

the payback is always better but there is no bag holding. Once they expire they expire. I made serious money with aapl calls and got cocky. Today 3 contracts expire for a total loss of a $900. I can't just hold them and wait to recover like I can with stocks. Same thing happened with PENN calls that I should have taken profits on and got greedy. Today I closed options on 2 infrastructure companies and options for 30% and 40%. I need some small quick wins and need to stop looking for big wins. That's the danger in options i think. That and understanding the theta EV and IV.

did that last year. it was annoying and didn't even work haha

Mine as well. I saw my neighbor winterizing his snow blower and thought it might be a tad early, but on Sunday I had time and did the same. I also put all the fireplace stuff away and the extra wood went back to the pile.

I also saw that forecast. Learned my lesson year planting too soon. Mothers day it is from here on out.
