    Just an update. What ever destroyed the hive is either very sick or dead. I spayed the the crud out of the bees huddled ob remaining hive last night. Killed them all. What a disgusting smell. I left for morning clean up. ALL of them and remaining hide was gone this morning. The porch deck ,cover and hub blind they were actually in all still stink.

    Started my robot vacuum cleaning the downstairs when I got up this morning. Just realized that that it had been awful quiet down there for a long time - checked the app and it said it was still cleaning so decided to investigate. Found the door to my house wide open and after a few minutes of searching I located the vacuum at the neighbors house across the street cleaning their driveway. My dog hates the vacuum since it always torments him while he is trying to take a nap and he knows how to open that door so I am pretty sure he finally had enough and decided to free it.

    If a time traveler went back ten years and told me that in 2020 my vacuum was going to run away because my irresponsible dog left the door to the house open there is no way I would’ve believed them.

    New ppp loan extension proposal eligibility requirements. Have to show 50% reduction in reciepts between April 1 - June 31 2020 screws me. I do commercial insurance and for commercial liability and worker’s compensation the premium a customer pays for the policy are based on their estimated sales and payroll. Then at the end of the policy period you do an audit and their premium is recalculated based on their actual sales/payroll. If their actual numbers are higher then they owe us the difference and if they’re lower we issue them a refund for the difference. Since almost all of these policies were in effect prior to Covid our reciepts currently haven’t changed much, but once all these policy’s renew we are going to get slammed. Not only will we have to return a fortune Of unused premium for their 2020 period, their premium next year will be way less since the estimated sales/payroll will be based on their 2020 figures. But since that won’t happen until the renewals at the start of next year it won’t hit our books until after the April-June window for the ppp extension window. Based on the proposed requirements we won’t be eligible for anything even though well over $.50 of every $1 we have received during the past few months isn’t actually ours and will get refunded to the customer before the year is out, which is directly a result to the stupid Covid business shutdowns.

    Dumb bastards on the freeway when you pull into the left lane to pass you do not leave your cruise control at the same speed, especially when you must have seen cars blowing by you when you were in the right lane you idiot.

    No problem leaving it on. Just step on it to pass and then get your ass back into the right lane. Lift foot and let cruise take over.

    Easy peasy but some people are just @@cktards

    you get to use cruise control?
    90% of FIBs don't even know it exists.

    I have 3 BILs who live in LA area. One came for a visit and was absolutely shocked I used cruise on the freeway. 7 cars in their families and none of them have ever had their cruise control set. :confused:

    What i find funny is getting passed by someone and then i pass them about 5 miles down the road. Rinse and repeat. Did that about 4 or 5 times in a one hour trip.
