I have a location id like to go to. It was where i was shopping for land 30 years ago. Its 'safe' for the time being. At least for a couple more generations, if ever.  And due to some changes in that area, its made it even more remote and less appealing to build out someday.  But its not so far out you cant get to "town" if you need to.

However, $ is an issue. Not that i'm broke, but i'm old and not 'wealthy', and work for a living. Starting over is costly. Trying to figure out how to do it. Before its too late and property values here crash.

I would recommend you to pack your toys and leave, but I don t have recommendations for places to leave to.

I am still looking for those. The problem is I have soooo many toys I'd rather die than leave behind.

News report today on this, more images, ( cant really listen im working.. ) and it shows the exit gates looking outwards, then a picture of the outside of our garage.  yep, it was us.     I  was pretty sure, but seeing a image of the 3rd floor with some cars i wasn't 100%... some garages do look similar inside .

and still no announcement from HR or the  grounds management people... 

But then again, couple of years ago we had a homeless person die in the stairwells.. no announcement then either.

• At least 50 cars spray panted in a downtown garage Friday afternoon.  We are debating at the office if it was OUR garage..  and we were never told. ( sure seems like it )

 

LoL, just as i posted, we did get a 'mention' of the incident in our weekly news letter from HR.    Almost a week later, as a foot note. 

And since i rarely post good news...  They caught the **** that was spray painting cars.  Seems she also had in possession an ID and wallet from a person that was just mugged earlier that day. Soooo additional charges.

Seems she was found just walking around the area and spotted by local police..  not even enough sense to get the hell out of town, even after her face was all over the news.

I dont want to move off far far away, even if i do stop working in a couple of years.  Family. 

But, far enough to get out of this hell bent destruction..

Most people in that position move when they retire. Then you can go somewhere that living is cheap but there's no work. Unless of course you're planning to have a less demanding retirement job to keep you busy.

How odd.  No email at home for 3 hours now, other than a test i sent from work..( I was wondering if my domain got blacklisted or something.)

Did something blow up over in the far east where all the spam comes from?

Our governor just lifted most protections for 'wet lands' around here.  I can hear the bulldozers and cement trucks revving their engines now.

Grrrrrrr   *()*)&^#$_(#*&_$#

and email picked back up late that night. But not normal volume, just a few stragglers.

Rest of weekend and Monday, still light..  Today its more normal, but oddly no actual spam.  Lots from things like GitHub, but that is my fault..  but it as strange how it all just stopped.. for hours.. and still strange no spam/scam mail today..

Jerk-face Sam Altman wants $7T for some project.

He needs to be up against the wall. 

They may, but it will be restricted 'export'
