Greetings and Salutations!
Tell you what, overexhaustion, and working out next to sumdood who what hacking up a storm should have been my clue. Last weekend I started feeling a wee bit down and out. Not this past one, but the one before.
That Thursday, I think it was the 12th I hit the gym at lunch for a quick shoulder workout. The guy on the machine next to me sounded like he had a two-pack a day habit, and I just sort of filtered it out as ‘noise’.
By Sunday the 15th, the voice started to go. No sore throat or anything… just …..raspy. It kept getting worse and worse until that Wednesday I called it a day and hit the Med-Shed. I was like completely wiped out mind you… I did the 3 days at People’s Glorious Tractor Factory (suffering as I did NOT want to burn my precious vay-kay), and the docs were quick to diagnose me with Pneumonia.
Which unfortunately missing that 1/2 an airbag from the cancer leaves me HIGHLY SUSCEPTIBLE to lung issues. I generally am good, as I can tell normally when I’m getting the wet heaving coughing fits, as I start coughing up the green nasty. In this case it was dry-dry. Which was different. The docs set me up with the nebulizer (again) the puffer (again) and loaded me with the meds that I need to kick this…
Which I have.
Pretty much
The voice is still raspy AF, and I’m still feeling like someone ran me over with a truck… that tired/no energy sort of feeling. And then my sleep cycles have been all fucked up too, so I’m trying to recharge, reset, and get back to normal.
Otherwise, everything is still fake and ghey AF.
Pretty sure Satanyahoo is ded too.
Seems his son disappeared for 7 days right after the airstrike that left ole Bibi at room temperature, aka a ‘Good Izzy’. The 7 days being the mandatory 7 days of mourning in Ye Olde Synagogue O’Satan’s “church”…
He also missed out of a BIG High Hebrew meetup in Hungary either yesterday or today, and has not been seen IRL outside of some MAD sketchy AI Vidyas. Got me a hunch things are going to go extremely pear shaped in the VERY near future.
So… I did something a LOT of y’all will disagree with, but I liquidated a BUNCH of my hard silver coinage whilst it was still over $80. My own analysis pointed to them pushing a harder crash on it, to the point it’s now hovering at $70 or below.
Which means I’ll be able to restock on it in a few months after paying off a few sezzle purchases. I did some maffs. Silver one oz coins are great, and a good hedge and ‘real money’… however, it’s got to be tendered or tradable and also, you need to be able to defend it or at least keep what you have right? If the shit hits the fan? What comes after? I mean silver DOES keep its value but when does it become useful?
Sooooo…
I reinvested the payout on a new tool.
One that’ll hold it’s value AND provide a certain degree of… security? Namely:
As well as 2x 800 round cans of linked M193 with a 1 in 5 mix tracer/ball. Plus a shitload of extra links.
As well as a FRT.
It’s going the definitely rattle the Fudds at my rifle range when it comes time to test it out… I might have to find a better place to break it in. I mean I was a SAW Gunner nonpareil in the Infantry amiright?
I figure a new way to bring the hate is worth the trade.
And why not right?
SO I’m wiped right now
Off to bed.
More Later
Big Country
Hot Damn! First to welcome you back to the land of the living. Welcome!
So sorry you have been infected with yuckomania. Don’t know why folks don’t understand staying home when contagious.
As far as your money tradin’ and such, it’s yours do what you like.
I am loving the SAW. Everyone needs two.
Stay healthy buddy I like your writin’s.
Tangibles, Tangibles, Tangibles.
Welcome back
Glad you’re feeling better.
Glad you made it back alive. I had the pneumonia during Covid. 3 weeks of hell, couldn’t make it 15′ from the bed to the shitter without help. Took 3 rounds of increasingly powerful meds to kick it. At the quack shack, almost opted for the wheelchair just to make it to the desk, but thought at 32 I’d rather be dead than wheeled up.
Glad I made it through. Glad you did too. All the best.
Glad you’re back…
Glad to hear that you’re doing better. Had “severe bronchitis” a couple of times and that’ll surely take the wind out of your sails. The upper and such look amusing. Have to check it out, although my state is pretty weird about that right now.
Glad yer on the mend, Tiny.
I dunno how a guy hides his wealth and assets anymore. Didn’t FDR make stacking illegal during the dirty 30s? I know in China that if you get caught using bitcoin … that’s a one way ticket to the firing squad.
I’m really loving that beltfed pea shooter too! I want to see a full range report and some good close-up photos too! Any thoughts or preferences on an optic for it?
Glad you are feeling better BCE, pneumonia is nothing to mess around with.
100 years ago it was one of the top killers of people. I too can easily catch pneumonia and I’ve had it tons of times. Therefore I am a little weird that if someone starts coughing, I get the Hell away from them and wash my face, arms and hands with antibacterial soap.
Also I know how many people here are about vaccines but if I were you I’d think about getting the pneumonia shot. I did and I’m glad I did especially knowing I get very sick with pneumonia (like half the time have to do a hospital stint) and every time I might meet the Grim Reaper.
With only 1 lung and that one has scar tissue, talk to your doctor about it.
Good to see you back, and doing better than Bibi, at least (or so it seems). It strikes me as very odd they are concealing his death, if he really is dead (as it looks). And the fact that almost nobody is talking about how sus (as the kids say) it is that he’s been MIA – save for AI slop videos – since his joint got aired out, Iranian style. What is gained by delaying the revelation?
Shits weird, that’s all I can say. It’s unnerving how anticlimactic this is all being treated by the MSM and most online purveyors of bullshit. I mean, we are looking at “real fuckin’ serious ™” economic pain and potential food shortage before too long, if the oil/diesel/urea situation is as bad as it appears to be destined to get.
I’m hearing Oz is basically outta gasoline at this point, and panic buying is setting in. The refining and LNG infrastructure in the Gulf that’s been rekt is seemingly being blown off as “easy come, easy go”, not the sort of thing that will cause market dislocations for the next 5-7 years (and tens of billions of sheckels) it will take to rebuild just what has already gotten “au phuc dup”, assuming Iran doesn’t go ape shit on even more of it; and that is by no means a good bet.
Looks like you timed your silver sales well boss, and wisely used the proceeds to get a nice little bang bang for the toy collection. Yeah, I’m a bit envious right now, ya’ fucker. Anyway, keep your self on the path to recovery, being sick like that sucks ass. I’ve never been down *that bad* (as I’m still sporting both factory supplied airbags) but have probably been close once or twice in the last 10 years.
