Fear and Loathing, a Rat Flu Odyssey

Just got an email from kids school. One of the 4 cases in this county of 1 million, just happens to be a parent from my child’s school. They had contact with a teacher on campus last week. It was parent /teacher conference week...bad timing. I haven’t gotten a call yet.
Leaving town today. Got a house rented in the mountains for a week.

I'm picturing a Marshall stack playing martial marching music.

Maybe Marshall law wouldn't be so bad after all.

Marshall Crenshaw as M.C.

And, of course Marshall Bruce Mathers, aka, Eminem as top act.

Marshal, Marshal, Marshal

Marshall is an occupation name whose origin is from the Frankish mare ("horse") + skalkoz ("servant"). It is most commonly found as a surname, but may also be used as a given name. It is also an old Scottish surname meaning 'Love of Horses'.

KQ is a Marshall?

[Timberridge]

Technically.

Why did the US refuse the WHO covid tests? That doesn't seem to be addressed in the article and contributed greatly to delays and availiblity. That's on the federal goverment.

The executive branch also had the power to cut through all the red tape, to change the protocols. We know it's true because that's what eventually happened.

The problems with various labs were real but they were greatly exaggerated by top leadership and coordination problems in no small part due to the executive making light of the coronavirus, telling everyone it would miraculously disappear. Then from the top down there was infighting between the political leadership, who didn't consider it a major threat, and the scientific leadership, who did, which further hamstrung the ability to coordinate testing.

America is going to be much healthier in a month or two. The population that survived , that is.

This is Meck County, correct? SIL is a principal in the system and niece is a teacher. I just returned from Bryson City and it was chill and a good place to be. I should have stayed much longer. Most if not all the small town dollar stores were still in good shape as of Saturday afternoon. Life goes on in the mountains.

Friend is teaching Catholic school 8th grade and retires at the end of the year. He has been tasked with moving to remote learning. He's f'd. The guy doesn't even use facetime. Has never videoconferenced in his life. I told him either create a business model and make it worthwhile, or quit. Let the parents figure this year out. He can come stay with me for a month to hide.

It is indeed in Meck. I don’t think any of the heads of school are female. But definitely some in leadership. This school has two campuses. We might be talking about two different schools.

We got a place up around Brevard for the week. I’m gonna isolate myself on the rivers of the area. #hugeflyfisherman

I went to the bakery this morning, paid with a $20, and got $13.53 in change. Should I be wiping the bills and coins with a disinfectant wipe?

Not sure I can really wrap my head around that one.

Back in the times of women wearing gloves all the time esp. white gloves hotels used to wash money so as not to soil said gloves.

Put it in your pocket and throw your jeans in the wash! [emoji16]

Darling daughter said getting out of her school was like the last scene from "The Year of Living Dangerously".

Current Marshall law is Kastle BMX 105hp

He’s not wrong, and my former pair.

Kirkland has been relativity mellow for days with people inside. Got a wake up call here early I suppose. The big brains in the area are needed and hopefully serve the country well.

Tripping about being under contract on a RE purchase. Absolutely the right house but the wrong time.. unless 30 yr rates do come down to all time lows.

Italy has an old population for various reasons and a notoriously stupid government. Not really surprised they're numbers are high, but holy fuck are they bad.

Yeah, Britain and the United States remembers when people made fun of Italian politicians.

Not sure about that. People will just be day drinking at home instead along with eating a lot of canned and packaged shit and not getting any exercise.
