“Those manufacturing jobs are NOT coming back even IF we open back up. UNTIL they can get the widgets used in their processes.

China itself shutting down guaranteed a great depression. Even IF nobody else ever sniffled again.”

Thank you for the post... That is what I have been telling everybody. The big drop in the stock market was because of a broken supply train. The layoffs were starting before the lock downs.

We need to bring our factories back.

Accusing sweaty palms was a complete insult by you.

You’re known for your one off snipes to others. Seen it many times. The best way to handle a bully is to knock him on his ass swiftly. You deserved it. Get over it and mind your manners instead of being a one insult wonder and you won’t have to suffer the in kind insults.

So stop pouting
Stop pushing the issue and move along politely.

Im polite to everyone here UNTIL they deserve a dose of their own snot. You deserved it. I wasn’t even taking to you when you came along as a smartass. You got what for asked for, so let it go old man.

...but ya gotta admit...the baalams donkey line was very witty.

Have a good night.
Try to catch all the crusty toenail clippings =o)

Who f*cking cares? Montagnier is still a Nobel winner talking about his own specialty.

Which outranks you know, a computer geek trying to make billions by sneaking eugenics into his vaccines, or a demented 16-year-old on energy consumption and climatology.

She went on to say that she had only had a handful of procedures — including enlarging her nose and lips and liposuction — and her weight was in a normal range. “I was trying to lose weight, that is true. But I only lost 5-7 kilograms, not 40 or even 30. Now I weigh 54 kg (119 pounds),” she said.

tanford antibody study we’ve been waiting for.

Further confirms that CV is MORE CONTAGIOUS and LESS LETHAL than we thought.

PENDLETON — A Pendleton woman who became a widow at the age of 31 wants people to know COVID-19 is impacting young people.

Brianna Berry’s husband Lewis died on April 6 at IU Health North after nearly a week in the hospital.

He was 37 years old.

Lewis and Brianna met in 2016 and got married in November 2018— the Pendleton couple had hopes and dreams of a long life together.

“He was a very honorable man and was so giving and kind hearted,” said Brianna. “He cared more about my well being than his own. He was so full of life, and there was no one like him.”

Both Brianna and Lewis had asthma, and so they took a lot of precautions amid COVID-19.

“He wasn’t around people. He was using hand sanitizer, washing his hands, staying away from people,” said Brianna. “We were Cloroxing our bags before other people were doing it. We were doing all these things.”

OK, I promise to do better now that you have taught me a lesson. But I am now positive that you have sweaty palms. I bet you are even typing up your inciteful diatribes with a mask on. If you feel yourself hyperventilatng, you can always try a brown paper bag. Have a nice evening and don’t forget to check the closet before you retire.

*** I picked up a great tool this last week for the beds. B&D did it again. Pure genius and saves on some of the back breaking work. ***

Country of Origin???

I bought a bunch of gardening stuff at Tractor Supply, Lowes, and Home Depot today.
All but the potting soil, and assembled in USA from global components weed block were manufactured in China.

Ya, we stocked up on garden stuff a cpl months ago.

Extra hoses, hose parts, gloves, etc.

Lawn mower parts were at the top of the list. I don’t have a herd of goats handy.

We didn’t expect shutdown. We DID expect ‘inconveniences’ due to lack of stuff appearing in our ports. Late Jan/early Feb we tried to brainstorm of what we might ‘need’ in an average year that was dependent on MIC stuff.

That’s sad, and from the pictures on video, I’m guessing the asthma was likely not the culprit 😢

she doesnt mention wearing a mask when he went to get the groceries...but even if wearing one..it is hard to be completely virus free if it gets on you.

Size wise he’s about what hubby was before we started the l/c stuff.

Hubby still has asthma though. perhaps not as bad as before.
