Love the vid!
I work at two educational institutions and they are shutting everything down. So bored with the hysteria.
hey doll.
Glad you are here.
:)
Love The Knack’s My Sharona.
Thanks for that.
Like Mel I am weary of the damned hysteria.
Check out this musical number from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes:
Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend
Look at it not as a musical number, but as an advertisement. The studio owners were also involved in the diamond cartel.
DeBeers was the company that convinced people engagement rings HAD to be diamonds, and this was their "rule of thumb" for how much you should spend on one:
General Rule: You should spend at least 2 months salary on the engagement ring. If, for example, you are making $60,000 per year, you should spend $10,000 on the engagement ring.
Well, I teach at a college, and am currently trying to get them to remain closed next week, but it’s just cause I want an extra week of Spring Break.
In under 500!
Well - a lot of activity in the works. Disney closing, NCAA and other sports canx, all schools in Ohio just closed for at least a month....
Just got called into my bosses office and we’re putting in place a “social distancing” policy that requires non-essential personnel to rotate M-W-F or Tu-Th on alternating weeks based on the seating plan, work from home the rest of the time. For the foreseeable future. It’ll impact efficiency as some folks will try to take advantage. ‘
The good news is our main competitor is overseas and has already shut down their facilities so we just became the only game in town.
I expect even more stringent actions next week.
Just hoping the markets have bottomed and I don’t end up with a margin call on my account. I can take one more hard down day and that will be about it, so hoping the bottom is close to where we are.
But this is freaking ridiculous. 39 deaths?
==========+=======
And Rush stated on his show that twenty-six of those were in the same nursing home.
I’m thinkin’ it’s about time to turn off all media for a couple of weeks before I cannot even talk to people without telling them how stupid they are.
I just want to know when this latest manufactured crisis is scheduled to end and how far they are willing to take this insanity.
Good to see ya!
Not sure.
Things become clearer:
Inside China’s high-stakes campaign to smear the United States over coronavirus
https://www.foxnews.com/us/china-smear-united-states-coronavirus-wuhan
Beijing has been bending over backward trying to convince the world that the United States is the real culprit behind the quickly spreading virus that’s already claimed more than 4,600 lives across the globe.
Thanks - btw re: your tagline, have you read or heard anything about how Rush is doing lately?
“I’m thinkin its about time to turn off all media for a couple of weeks before I cannot even talk to people without telling them how stupid they are.”
Same here. The Leftists are infuriating.
With the help of our resident commies.
The think bottom is early April - treatments approved, weather helps, fear eases back (we didnt all just die).
