Kind of a which came first argument like the chicken or the egg. Makes no difference because you can't have one without the other.

It is here now and nobody has had to deal with a global calamity...

Yes, feel the same way and so damn glad I have been retired for 11 years now. It sure takes a lot of stress out of the situation the pandemic has left us to deal with. The boss has been a homemaker...

The boss and I were talking about that very same thing the other day. It is back to school in a month up here and both of us agreed that if we were teachers qualified to retire we would be gone under...

In whatever form of Democracy you live in the people elect the politicians so you get what you deserve. Keep in mind the choice is most often between the lesser of two or more evils. That makes it...

As of today the US has had 4 million infections. Looking at the chart in the link, it is starting to rise exponentially and at that rate it will be a little over a week before the 5 million mark is...

Yes, you could take it to mean that or that the virus dictates how it is to be dealt with regardless of the type of government a country has. Which I think is more to the point as the virus knows...

The US is not alone in having it's economy crippled in this pandemic as every country globally is using the same basic measures to fight this Covid 19 virus. Yup, for whatever reason this is the...

You mean like gated neighbourhood? ;)

No got thermometer and he is more worried about us giving it to him considering the question he asked before coming out to check the fridge out in the first place.

Now the local Indian Reserve...

Good to hear that you are alive and well Andrew. Just found out our dear leader will shut down all non essential services as of Tuesday 11.59 AM. Wouldn't you know it, just got a call that the part...

Was only going by what the Doc in the link was saying in that it might effect some younger healthy individuals adversely too. Know what you mean by viral infections of the lungs. A while ago an old...
