The last time I took a cruise out of Long Beach. That place was packed with freighters out in the water. Waiting to come in.

Commodity stocks are beginning to reflect this truth There are some sectors that will have severe material shortages in the very near future. Best case is we stay out in front of it with the virus and start to see some positive results from the regs in place. New York and New Orleans aren't doing so hot (or maybe I should say they are too hot ), but Washington state definitely seems to have done a decent job thus far.

Yeah, it's usually very very busy. Even passing by Long beach airport, there were no planes on the runway or in queue

Took my dad for a ride in the Z tonight, starting to learn my limits as I continue playing with the turbo. Definitely scared the crap out of him at one point, though he took it well. Spooler is right, boost is like crack. Definitely an adrenaline rush even though I'm not in the 700 range - I can only imagine what that's like. Maybe in a few years 😉 I'm loving this car.

LOL, I don't drink much at all and I don't do drugs. Get me behind the wheel of a turbo car and I can turn into a crazed monster. LMAO.... You'll get use to it and want more, then more, then more, etc. You will have to upgrade a few things along the way to keep it under control. If there is such a thing.

The real crazy part is this. You will get use to it and think nothing of it. A passenger will have no clue and they will start to refuse to ride with you. Ask me how I know....

Friday night, and at home early. I actually don’t mind this at all now. Today was my scheduled paid day off and woke up around 1 PM (haven’t done this since college) and was out grocery shopping for a few hours at different places. Heard through the masses that people are now panic buying pet food, so I had to go out and ensure my dog was stocked both wet/dry food. Now here I am eating home-made dinner with the wifey and watching a movie from the 90’s “Outbreak”

Make sure you take your wife for a ride. I never did get mine in the car before it broke. She was a little scared to take a ride but has riden in everything else with me. She even rode in my 300zxtt back in the day and my 1975 280zt. She has always been a trouper when riding. My current car just scared her for some reason.

Gun club meeting the beginning of next month is cancelled. But the range is still open. Foretasted rain for this weekend. I need some range time. Got to keep sharp with all these prisoners being released from the jails.
