I finally got my census in the mail today. First time I've gotten any mail here since Tuesday. And it's not just me, the neighbor was also bitching about that yesterday

I got three questions in when they asked if we own or rent and that was it for me. That type of personal stuff is none of their business. I assume they went on to ask about race, income, etc so I’m glad I stopped early. Seriously? This is how the government doles out federal dollars and also sets reps. You are short changing the state of SC by not filling it out. I believe some of the info can also be left blank, but at least tell them how many adults are on the property. Yes, seriously. The Constitution is very clear that the 10 year census is to count people to determine house of representative districts. Why does my race, or whether I own my home matter for that equation? Any time we allow the government, especially the feds, to take more than their entitled to, we give up a portion of our constitutionally guaranteed liberty. For example, the Patriot Act. Also, I agree with you. I’m willing to tell them how many people live here...which was the second question, and I answered that. |

Hmm, I noticed he had a donut in his hand. That guy sounds just like most of my neighbors  My boys and I took the dog and went to a park today and threw a baseball around for about an hour. Felt great to get out. |

So my work schedule is now one day a week on Wednesdays, except today to catch up on things, but is for at least to next week.
Surgery cancelled and moved to May 18th as of now.

Well I guess more house projects abound as my wife works from home and I drive here nuts with turning certain power areas off! TEE HEE!

I'm fine with people chosing to not answer the detail, but at least get the head count in there so you don't short change your local representation at the federal level. |

Unfortunately, the whole response gets voided if you don’t answer every question. To me, that confirms that the feds aren’t as concerned with counting people to determine House of Representative district representation, like the Constitution calls for, but more interested in the other stuff. At the end I got a message saying a census worker would be coming to my house...can’t wait I hope you’re doing well and staying safe. |

It was only a matter of time. We are strict shelter in place. We take walks most every day but well within the guidelines. |

Good for you for taking the kids. Docked in Richmond. Maintained by volunteers. Not top notch condition but more than half of it still available for self-guided tours. We then went to a WWII museum a couple of miles away from it. |

We took my Dad there a few years ago and while he talked to the volunteers on the ship my Brother, Nephew and I climbed down the stairs into the engine room. Went by ourselves, what a learning experience that was |
