ps: Everyone be safe...my wife and I are over 65 so we are a bit worried abut things....we haven't had any unnecessary contact , even avoided the kids and grandkids ,missed a b-day party, but they are saying this is a very infectious strain.
Staying home....time to get out the Blanton's bourbon,,,was saving it but ..what the hell.

doctor's advice ehh.. I'll take that.  Time to kill any virus's around with some 94 proof.  Keeps one horny... and healthy. 

Glad to hear you are OK Doc.. staying in or still working? 

Well just heard Delaware, which is where our campany's HQ is just got put into time out and closed all non essential businesses.  Of course being the curious sort I am.. I wondered just what is and is not considered essential.

interesting...  so in fact.. most will still be working so these shutdowns will do how much good...

LOL nah... I doubt she does haha.  

Besides I'm better known throughout the internet by my avatar and alter-ego pissed off Elmo with a gun...

and there goes the neighborhood... reason 1a why this isn't going away quickly.  China getting hit again by a new wave of cases...this time by the boomerang effect. People from outside China bringing it back in as they try to return to normal.  Poor Italy and places like that.. they will eventually tamp it down.. and likely have it come back as we try to return to the old normal.  Is is a 9-11ish event but on global scale..  things... life will really change.

Speaking of which, Russia is definitely a place that I feel has been less than forthcoming about their covid numbers. No way they have only 250 cases sharing a 2000 mile border with patient zero.
I was thinking of this last night we have not heard much from Russia, they have been "quiet". I'm also concerned about southern hemisphere countries as they come out of summer and enter their flu season, Brazil especially.

Bolivia is already under total lockdown,, total quarantine.. it has already spread to the southern atmosphere 

and summer/winter.. doesn't matter. cases reported all over in hot tropical/equatorer regions..  it isn't a seasonal bug..either showing up.. or disappearing depending the temperature or season.

hah..well .. fear is a bit underrrated..  otherwise ignorance and stupidity rules.. sometimes people .. the masses ...might need a kick in the ass and need to be told what it right for them and they have bigger worries than running out of f**king toilet paperLOL  A bit of right wing fear mongering and old school kick assing...might serve us better than the current right wing ....spend money at the f**king beach on spring break or at the damn local 'essential' Gamestop and help prop the economy.... kind of control.

^ Except he could get sick too.   Hopefully we'll all have some natural immunities a year or two from now, and we''ll just have to live with this strain of flu like we do other viruses.

No, as you can't unfriend your family. I know as I've tried! LOL

All my testing bravado seems for naught as NY and CA are going to scale down testing radically as there is not enough personal protective equipment, like masks and gloves, for the technicians to wear in order to perform the tests. This really is resembling life during wartime and I hope that our national leaders are up to it.

This is really sad and my best wishes go out to you and your loved ones. PA may not be a family but it is a community that's made up of a great amount of decent folks and even our differences regarding politics, music or whatever cannot put a dent in that. We're all in this together and what effects one member effects us all. Rest assured that many here are pulling for you.
