Alabama thread!

I just hope places can get to where they can stop shutting down.

 

I love seeing things like this, a lot of people do not realize how much history that represents. I remember going there as a young kid, it was so exciting. They use to have cigars that were about a foot long and two inches think in their souvenir shop, we all got one and smoked it when we were about 7 old years old, times have changed so much and in that case for the better, lol

 

Good luck on the first day! I bet traffic was nothing haha

 

Well the surgical wont protect me but at least it will keep most of my breath from landing on surfaces. N95 would only protect me IF I have shaved my face yes. Bottom line I shouldn't be at work. I am cleaning everything I touch in his house.

 

So a loootttt of people are rushing out to get tested?
If they test positive what does that mean? I am confused, what do they do next?
There is no cure or anything to help get over it so now they know they have it, is that all?
The government is testing so they know where the most cases are and where and how it is spreading but does it help us in any way.
I know it is suppose to mean the positive people are suppose to self quarantine but is it suppose to help us in any other way?

 

The W.H.O. is telling countries to test everybody. CDC is saying only if you have symptoms because they don't have enough test kits.

I believe the thought process by the W.H.O. is that if you test positive, you self quarantine. No cure or anything but if you know you have it, you'll hopefully stay home and stop the spread. Which is why they are telling folks if you traveled to self quarantine which few people are doing from my perspective. I.e. my workplace.

The only way the testing helps us is if the positive person tested goes home for two weeks. If they don't then the testing isn't helping society. Lots of selfish people in America so...

 

My Grandson went to the ER last night with high fever, diarrhea and throwing up. They said they don't test unless all other test are negative and the media is saying they want to test everyone.
I see all these people lining up in the highway in Birmingham to test and there is no way they are ruling out all other possibles before they test for Covid-19

 

Wow, the news just showed the beaches in Florida are full of people on spring break and the cities are saying they will not close their beaches. They say people need to follow the guide lines of social distancing. Kids are coming from all over the country to gather in one crowded place.

 

My heart broke reading that. Having heard my girls cry for their momma before is heart breaking even when she was just at the store. I couldnt imagine how it makes them feel.

 

I'm no doc but that sounds like the flu or some other virus. Throwing up and diarrhea aren't symptoms but you would think they'd test to rule it out as well but they don't have enough test kits. Hope your grandson is OK!

You're right and I seriously doubt all those people on the highway have symptoms.

 

Gulf Shores is closing all beaches at 7am tomorrow. I'm sure Orange Beach will follow. It's a shame but that Florida tourism money is more important than people.

 

If you want to get tested, go to a church or something.

Highlands did 400 tests the other day in their parking lot at the Grandview location. They will be doing drive through testing at the grants mill location today.

 

Its crazy, they are showing people that are thought to have it, they cant test because they dont have the test right now but the NBA said they have test 8 full teams of the NBA, even the ones with no symptoms. I guess we need to test the NBA that are not working, have no symptoms and should be staying at home anyway.

Athletes that are in the best shape and would get over it no problem. It's ridiculous. Shut all sports down for a year. Screw it! Unplug, reconnect with family, love your neighbor as yourself and put aside petty differences.
I'll get off my soapbox now.

 

Most likely your bushings are worn out, that would let the leaf rise up. Look at the bolt, is it in the center of the bushing or is it located off center toward the bottom?

 

It looks like you have new bushings. My guess is they are not the correct bushings.

 

yes there should be

 

Check to see if the bolt appears to be in the center or more to the bottom. Was the metal sleeve in the center of the bushing the same size as the bolt or was it bigger than the bolt?

 

Gotcha. Im not sure if mine touch or not. Its at home and i can check later
