I bet the orange guy is laughing at all of us who don't wash their hands 60 times a day. And it looks like there was a good reason he didn't shake Pelosi's hand.Quote:

From MSNBC a few minutes ago, but can't find that in any supporting media.
Is that supposed to make us feel better? He raves like a crazy drunk dude at the end of the bar. His supporters are just down from the hills and can probably count to their last finished grade level on one hand. His minister of coronavirus propaganda is a snake handler. Like I said, good thing the markets are closed today.Quote:

For the teacher, tele teaching is really challenging and consumes almost all wakeful hours (but at least she’s working and getting paid). For the young daughter, it’s really difficult as it’s a whole new and foreign way of learning, and for her dad, he can’t work and is fully consumed with child care and supplemental teaching.
The world economy is going to grind to nothing.
not if you're selling facemasks and toilet paper.
I got all that, was just pointing out the case in CA happened first, and it is just as close to Tahoe as Oswego is to Hood. And while I want to win $5 I live in Tahoe, so also jesting.Quote:

Scrubbing everything down now! How do you disinfect a piece of paper? Now I have to hand over the hot check to the jurisdiction on Monday.
If I stop posting in a week or so, you’ll know what happened...
Then went to the grocery store to pick up some stuff. Paper products aisle decimated; bleach all gone; tons of old people in the store (usually they’re the midweek shoppers)
Meanwhile there have been 18,000 flu deaths and CDC est. 32M flu infections in the US this season. People need to try to keep things in perspective a bit.
As said in another thread, shouldn’t Trump’s head be on a pike for this mortality rate?Quote:

You had a good run ::: :::. Hearing the local costcos are war zones. Bill Bur has the right messaging on thisQuote:

Russian hospitals are like being in Mexico. The treatment will likely be worse than the original ailment or injury.
Didn’t the testing on the cruise ship off japan indicate that half of the peeps with positive tests were asymptomatic?
Plus, have you ever watched any Russian dashcam videos? Those people welcome death's warm embrace.
Shit, I think I have it. The lack of symptoms was my first clue.Quote:
