    I looked up whether she was married the other day. I was going to write her 100 letters a day until she answered me. They always works! And invite her to shelter in place with me. Look Up the video when she was giving a talk during an earthquake. You will start writing letters too.

    Doesn’t matter. The fundamentals are the same. Everywhere. That is Just an excuse for the failed national leadership in this country. In fact, because of our size and population, we are better off here could have had rolling openings and shut downs here, opening some places and closing others. We had an advantage. Hong Kong is an example of a dense city like New York. But, here, we actually debate the right of people to expose others to a pandemic by their right to not wear a mask or social distance and policy is made based on ignorance and outright disregard for others.

    so here are todays numbers. new cases 22,658, almost 5,000 less than a previous thursday. deaths 1,223, almost 200 less than a previous thursday, new tests 455,839, almost40,000 more.some people who are doom and gloomers are never going to be happy with any numbers, they say, look, maryland and virginia are spiking, yet the overall numbers continue a long downward trend in deaths and new cases almost daily, yet still some are not satisfied until there are none, which might never,ever happen, so be happy we are winning the war, and yes, we are winning.

    Only one way into my house and a sharp curve where you have to slow down and the guy there has a No More Bullshit banner hanging in his fence. The guy ran the local Toys for Tots program so I’m considering letting it slide.

    I like how we are the greatest country on Earth until it comes to doing stuff other countries have done to fight this virus (or just take care of our people in general).

    So they should ignore it and let it spread, i.e., the February policy of the US government? Every action should be reactive instead of proactive? Decisions should only be backwards looking? Diseases don't spread? I am genuinely curious what you think an area just getting the virus should do.

    She's still only shacking up, but she is engaged now. What a prudish lot we are. Or will we only elect a woman president when a single candidate emerges, preferably not a day over 35?

    Ever tire of posting the same hyperbole over and over? Think I've seen that nonsense posted nearly verbatim in several different threads.
