Are you preparing for the election?

Ima go to work. I have a few tricks up my sleeve if necessary to get back home. Borrow a boat or I even know how to fly a plane in a tough spot. Never quite finished those lessons but.......I’ll be fine.

 

If Bi-den wins I'm a going to buy up Donkeys and...Poo bags to hang on the rear of the donkeys....
No gasoline means a high demand for Donkeys....and...There will be a tax on poo dropped on the roadways !
You can get around the Poo tax if you have a high quality Poo bag hanging off you're ass...
I might need a west coast pardnah...Meat ?

 

That’s much better than threatening to leave the country like some. Imagine being soooo insecure.

 

ALL supplies are stocked at highest levels ever. Finished adding steel plate reinforcement to doorframes where the bolts for the locks go in yesterday. I have the vacation days to burn & its use it or lose it. So I took this 4 day work rotation off, giving me 12 days off. At worst if sumthing happens I'll be home and ready. At the least, I'll get to watch the Liberal Snowflakes cry! Be first time I've watched tv all year!!

 

Are you pulling the wagons with a tractor or truck? Takes good timing and constant watching the chute to get an even fill doesn't it!!

 

Donkey poo bags... why didn't I think of that?
Speaking of not thinking, going to fill up the vehicles.

 

Dropped off our ballots at city hall, topped off the truck and filled the last 5 gal gas can with non ethanol unleaded high test, stopped at the grocery to pick up our order, swooped by a Dutch Bros. for a giganto espresso and then headed for the barn.

I don't expect any issues where I am, but Grants Pass is twenty-five miles from here and something could pop off there or possibly in Medford thirty-five miles further South of GP.
I'm pretty happy with our situation and things are pretty much life as usual.
(I turned hermit the day I moved into this place, so bugging in is quite normal and is actually my preferred lifestyle.)

 

Dang Grants Pass used to be a cool little place. Gawd this sucks...

 

I expect nothing of interest to happen in my neck of the prairie since the nearest potential nonsense spots are 200+ and 300+ miles away. Still, never hurts to have the house well stocked, the fuel tanks all full, and enough bacon to be on the menu for a long time to come. Only thing I forgot to load up on is popcorn.

 

WTF Girl??? Sam's has got it in 30lb bags. I know cuz if I don't keep it in stock me and the kats will have to find another place to live..

BTW, we still use your bacon recipes around here. Takes a bit but well worth the time. Now that it's cooler it's even a better time to smoke 'em.

 

We have soldiers with automatics and three humvee’s in my neighborhood right now. I asked one of the young soldiers why. He told me in case their are riots.

 

Sure glad I live in a county where the SD comes here for reinforcements

 

Tractor

 

I'll put a convincer in the p/u (just in case) and go vote. Then come home and become a hermit again.

 

The local paper ran a photo of some of those folks that voted via alternative methods...they spent hours in lines at the courthouse waiting to vote. Sure sounds safe and smart to me.These people proved that they aren't intelligent enough to vote for dog catcher. As for myself, I'm gonna vote on Nov.3rd at the polling place down the road and I'll be done in less than 15 minutes.
As for voting by mail...my Federal tax return and refund are missing!

 

Yeah,Wife is mad she never got her return from Fedzilla,I'm sure that's a whole new thread ?

 

I'm not expecting anything to happen in my small town. We've yet to be affected throughout the continuous 4 months of Peaceful Protests in Portland.

I'm preparing to have an adult beverage, kick back relax and go to bed early as usual.

I'm pretty certain Biden will win. He's had a lot of help from some powerful friends the last 4 years. I'll be surprised if those efforts go unrewarded.

Trump has been his own worse enemy with his mouth and Twitter account, IMO.

 

It the board of elections in a State can estimate that the remaining outstanding mail-in ballots couldn't possibly change the outcome they will declare a winner. If enough States do that to reach 270 Electoral votes, it'll be over in a timely manner and we can get on with things. If it's closer than the percentage of outstanding mail-in ballots we look like fools to the World as we play recount games.

Either way, I'm prepared.

 

Well that was a bust. I was expecting riots and loud speakers.
I pulled into the polling place, parked the car, walked to my precinct line, grabbed my ballot, completed it, dropped it in the counter and returned home in less than 30 minutes.
where was the drama.
Oh wait, I'm in an entirely Red district. Most of the non federal and state positions only had republicans running unopposed.
Maybe that's why it was orderly and calm.
