What are you doing?

Quote from: drogulus on November 02, 2024, 09:21:06 AMI'm taking the advice of the financial doomers by preparing for the end of everything. They say to prepare for it. Often the preparation consists of going in or out of cash now!

I'm sure they're right. You must prepare. I have my own way of doing that, though, which isn't entirely in line with stocking up on ammo and canned goods. What I do instead is nothing. That's the plan, Stan, to do nothing as hard as I can for as long as it takes.

Always nice to find another kindred spirit.

Daylight Saving Time in the US ended a few hours ago, making my last shift of the workweek one hour longer. So, I'm grousing about that a bit.

But in approximately two hours my usual eggs will be waiting, hidden today inside a 🦀 omelet. After that a hot bath with a little 80-proof company, so l expect to be feeling much better.

Hopefully overtime at least?

I'm sure that he appreciated your support; that was good of you to go.

Yup, and it will pay for today's breakfast.

OK get this you'll love this.

I bought 18 shares of NVDA.

I mean how.....what??....

I can explain, I think. I'm not a contrarian. I don't think what the majority thinks should cause me to think otherwise. Something else might, but not that. So I bought a popular stock not even in spite of that, but because I judge NVDA will continue to grow past the tech bust when that comes.

I hopped over to Edinburgh on my PC to watch the first episode of Wolf Hall II: The Adventure Continues. The Bullen has been chopped and Jane is queen. I stopped after a few minutes because Someone Else wants to watch, too.

Other means must be used. My TV doesn't teleport, and even if it could the BBCiPlayer won't install on my elderly model.

Watched the snow fall ... and turn into slush.

Augh! Sorry to hear that! Do you have Windows or a Mac...or another system?

It's so wonderful to watch a gentle snowfall come down and coat the ground and the trees--magical and pristine.

The BBCiPlayer works fine on my Windows machine. I can't install the app on my old TV.
