Re: IPMS Nationals 2020
This is getting out of hand. We're big boys and are capable of taking care of our selves. We've lived this long without the government holding our hands.
Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.

It all depends upon where you live. Some states are opening up now... others are in a holding pattern still...Medicman71 wrote:Well if things keep going the way it is now, you can forget anything for the rest of the year.

True, Idaho, while still opening, has the traffic back to almost normal, most of the stores are back to being full. HP, where I work, has some employees returning (I've been here the entire time). I can't wait for a barber shop to open though.

Re: IPMS Nationals 2020
Yes, I think that barber shops here in AZ are opening today or Monday. But I couldn’t wait any longer, and we bought an electric trimmer/clipper last month. I’m just gonna keep a simple homedone buzz cut for now

Re: IPMS Nationals 2020
Orangecon in October so far is still on. We did receive a notification from National that the insurance policy offered to clubs holding contests/events does not cover illness. I guess a few people were asking....
I agree; we never had this measure of control over us during the SARS and Ebola crises even though more people died and the threat was supposedly just as real or worse. I'm beginning to fear our days of freedom are coming to a close while more and more control is being forced on us day by day.
That reminds me too: I need to shave....

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Re: IPMS Nationals 2020
I worry that the stats are being manipulated by some folks in power for political and or funding reasons. Supposedly over 90% of the fatalities from COVID had underlying health issues beforehand. Now obviously this stuff is as contagious or more so than a common cold in a child day care. But aside from a few hot spots, the whole nation and world cannot come the halt its at now and continue as is for much longer.

Nah, just don’t point the camera down.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

This along with the media blowing everything out of proportion and down right making up stories. Also social media like Facebook spread this.Stikpusher wrote:I worry that the stats are being manipulated by some folks in power for political and or funding reasons.

March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

You wouldn’t believe the crap my B-I-L sends me via text. Most of it from his FB page. Makes you wonder whether to believe it or not.
