The incredible 6 OT Big East Tourney UConn vs Syracuse game is on ESPNU.   No words for how amazing that was.  I remember being in a hotel at Disney World watching until the wee hours.

Funny (or maybe ironic), you can't visit Disney or watch live basketball right now.  Also amazing, but not in a good way.

Everyone fill out their census form yet?


We still haven't received anything. When did you get yours? How long is it?

Funny I should read this right now.   With school cancelled, we are looking for educational sessions.  I just finished a 30 minute session about the Census with my two sons.

First, I went to Ancestry.com and brought up their g-g-g-grandfather's 1900 Census form. We went through all the data, finding out he was a postman.  (In he's spare time, he was a moderator for Ye Old Scooper, a forum about cleaning up after horses.)

The 1940 Census had their grandfather (my dad) at age 7.  Turns out their family had an extra person in their house: a servant from North Dakota who made $400 per year.  I think my GGFather was loaded, he made "$5000+" per year.  $5k in 1940 = $91k today.

Then .. we opened the 2020 Census letter.  It's not a form.  It's an online code .. you enter it into a website, and answer the census questions about who lives there.   There weren't any cool questions, like how many TVs you have or whatever .. just a question about do you own your home/have mortgage.


It did ask .. what race .. but also your origins, like Irish or Italian.  9 of 16 of my GGGparents are Irish, so I put that.  But .. like most Americans, we're all a big mix.  What do you put?

Also, it turns out we do not have a servant, which totally sucks.

I trust this person was documented and they paid in for the servant's Social Security

Chances: Zero.   Social sec started in 1935, this was 1940.   It was certainly a cash transaction .. even a real company, payroll would have been a total bitch, calculating everything by hand with one of these suckers:

Any chance the 'servant' was female and your family was LDS?

Your GGfather's servant made more than my GGfather, who made a couple hundred in 1940.

Not too surprising that you grew up to be a mod and I am a just humble poster....

We are deciding where we want to be counted. We technically live in Illinois right now, but are selling our house effective 5/1, and splitting our time between Wisconsin and Nevada after that.

The online form I filled out asked "where are you going to be living on April 1st" .. retrospectively, that doesn't make sense, they'll be taking data all year.

It makes sense from a “snapshot “ reference point.  The hope is that most will online comply by April 1.

Day 2 - Social Distancing @ Home Log

I was bored and opened up the emergency Hostess Snoballs.  They are smaller than I remember.  It wasn't an emergency and now I regret my actions.

Do plastic surgeons practice their liposuction skills peeling that layer of fat off a Hostess Snoball?

Obviously you are a pro-cho. Hostess snacks, and really all processed sugar snacks start and end with twinkies. End of discussion.
