Let me guess. Gratwick and Nuzzo have both continued to collect paychecks during the lockdown.

Not to defend a democrat, but here in Maine, legislators make about $12,000 per 6 month session. They have day jobs that bring in their real income. As for Ms Nuzzo, she must live somewhere near Baltimore as she works for Johns Hopkins.

There’s been about 0 deaths since the 3 on Thursday.

Actually one reported on Saturday. Total 70. Please get your facts correct.

Oh, go screw. I said 'about' for a reason. I didn't say 'there have been 0', 'I said there have been about 0'. That means 'approximately', and I was responding to a note that only pointed out the 3 last Thursday without giving the context that there have been very few deaths in Maine in total in general and especially recently. The point is, Maine is doing fine. We're a very elderly state and given that, there are relatively few deaths.

"Please get your facts correct."

'About 0' is correct. Please go unwind your panties and stop being such a ninny or if you must be a ninny go bug someone else.

Sounds nice, I know I’ve driven that way but it’s been a long time.
Our trip starts in Portland and heads north.

Same story everywhere.

They've made sure to reach every corner of the country.

Not a single state had met the Administration guidelines for opening when they opened, and it hasn't been the disaster people have predicted.

I went on a road trip, 3 years ago now. It was something we used to do quite often when my kids were little. All out west, hitting small towns, etc. I probably hadn't done a good, long one like this for 10 years, at least.

The country wasn't recognizable. In so many different ways.
