Subj : Weather Was: Day In ER To : Daryl Stout From : Barry Martin Date : Fri Mar 05 2021 07:29:00 Hi Daryl! BM> So far no major flooding predicted for this year, though if rains a BM> lot.... DS> Several rivers in the region are already at moderate flood DS> stage. Duck Creek (a semi-major tributary to the Mississippi River locally) is close to flood stage, maybe 18 inches below. Where I see it at that point starts to flood the walk and bike trail, the golf course, and lower back yard of a restaurant -- not much of a problem. About a mile downstream it will flood into a residential area and those basements will probably become indoor swimming pools. BM> Up here registration fees, etc., can be a tax deduction. That might BM> help next year..... DS> I doubt Arkansas has that. Yet, it takes 8 to 10 weeks for the DS> title to arrive. Just for 'fun' I did a quickie search and was a maybe for new cars in 2019: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-deductions/ discussion/i-live-in-arkansas-i-paid-2742-00-for-sales-wnid-s0 I'll let you go further from there. BM> Yes, there have been a few times I'm starting to feel a little too BM> joyful to be out in amongst other humans at the grocery store. DS> That's why I'm getting groceries delivered. So instead of spreading the joy amongst multiple people at the grocery store it's all punt up and released upon the delivery person??!! DS> Yeah, and I can get up when I want to. When I get the urge to DS> clean, I lie down until it goes away. Besides, the house was DS> clean last week... sorry you missed it. I like the convenience to being able to write notes on the furniture! DS> For all I've spent, it's like having a new car. I have to pay a DS> $100 deductible on Friday to get the windshield replaced. Which isn't bad, considering the price of the windshield and the labour, just all those little add-ups... BM> (Off to Google...) BM> Nepal is fifteen minutes ahead of India's time zone. DS> So much for simplicity. The time change is next weekend...I DS> wish they'd decide on one, and leave it there. LIS somewhere a while back, it seems to me the need for adjusting the time is no longer valid. I was sort of hoping they'd taken the opportunity to make up their minds one way or the other back when they extended DST, Major problem back then was VCRs were common and there was no way to upgrade their firmware like we were able to do with computers. DS> ... I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder. Which mechanic said that wbout your new car?! ¯ BarryMartin3@ ® ¯ @MyMetronet.NET ® ....
