So who's looking forward to going back to work?

I never even slowed down, but I'm looking forward to everyone else getting back to work.

Never took a day off. Still wont take face to face appointments for awhile, but you can mail your tax/financial stuff in, or call in your payroll. Will call you back. Getting slow, because people are procrastinating on their tax work...Sending a letter to those who are procrastinating with our late fee structure..We doubled it.

This PPP loan stuff has been a free money fiasco. If you knew your banker, and your banker knew your business was eligible, and you could pull the docs together ASAP, you got shown to the door first. If you don't have a business banker that you know, good docs, good accountant that knows business bankers. SOL. Think a bunch of my small businesses got over funded too.....Not sure if they can spend 75% on payroll to get forgiven 100%..Think most will be on the hook for 20-40% of what they got. Still a stupid good deal. Can always refi. pay it ,or default  if out of business. No personal guarantee in the paperwork.

Well of you do get it it think die hard fishermen are curing it by drinking or injecting themselves with either Hawg Sauce or the stuff they put on Gulp baits.  Thats what I heard, Drs are amazed at the results and the Defense Production Act may be utilized to force all fishing tackle companies to make "Gulp Slime" or Hawg Sauce, other related cures are being sought such as Uncle Josh Pork Rind Liquid.  😷  Further tests are being directed toward Sonny's Catfish Bait and Bee Jay Baits, however many "health professionals" feel that any benefits from either of thoae is more related due its effectiveness in supporting social distancing. 

NOTE:  I in todays world i feel obligated to point out that this post is merely an attempt at humor, had it been actually funny this disclaimer would not be necessary.  !!

Was listening to some Doctors that said that you have.003 chance of dying from Coronavirus. Is this justification to shut down the economy?

Media immediately took this off. Interesting.

Plus many cities when their Hospitals were full started putting Coronavirus Cases in Nursing Homes knowing most already in the homes were most vulnerable.

I will say in all honesty this time, that in the last few years I have gone away from regular skeeter repellent and bought some Lemon Eucalyptus stuff, it does seem to work for me and it smells good.  I don't need it very often but like July 4th event at friends house I use it liberally and don't have any issues.  My wife seems to like the thermacell things but I haven't used them.  I do get weird about strange smells on me fishing so if I happen to use any while gong fishing I will either use a rubber glove to apply the lemon stuff or wash hands very very thoroughly afyerwards and before touching aNY of my fishing stuff, but I generally do that with sunblock too.  Even to the point of scuubbing with a handfull of mud/sand/gravel from the shoreline wherever I launch.  Especially if I had to stop.for fuel, no idea if it's a big deal or not but anymore it's just a ritual.

I carry a bar of Lava soap and some Dawn detergent in my boats.  And hand towels.  A wet hand towel really helps with handling fish.

Well breaking out the calculator, with a US population of 330,000,000 times .003, that works out to 990,000 dead people.  A 3/1000 chance of dying is good odds for an individual, but as a whole, it still kills a lot of people.  I would also add that a person's chances are probably better in a rural environment that in a crowded city.
