    @George-K @George-K said in Regards of what you think of VP Biden, he does have a cool car.: That Onion article never gets old, does it? Oh, it wasn’t just one article if I remember correctly, there was a whole series based on Joe being “that guy”.

    Read the Lancet article. 60 cases from Jan and Feb. all were hospitalized with a mean length of stay of 15 days +/- 6 days. So less severe means less severe of those hospitalized. Wonder how the non hospitalized fared but maybe no base line MRI to know.

    @Jolly said in The Sorry Bastards From NYC: They are driving up land prices so much, that young local couples cannot afford housing where they grew up. That would suck.

    @Horace said in Incoherent?: I am a computer programmer who is also a visionary leader. Me too. I can do, and have done, both the detailed implementation of various things and the visionary creation and leadership of organizations. But I seldom do both at the same time.

    @jon-nyc said in We haven't beat on the IHME model in a while: THey are not predicting a significant increase in the death rate even as the new case rate is doubling every 14 days. Seems rather optimistic. [image: 1594045044005-screen-shot-2020-07-06-at-10.17.05-am-resized.png] In the event, their optimism was unfounded. Daily deaths now are about double the maximum number they predicted.

    Yeah he did. And great dirt on himself, which he gladly shared in a private setting.

    It's not like there's a big whole tongue on your plate. You get a 3-4 slices and the meat is really tender. Shoot, I should have taken a picture. Anyway, like Mik said, they make great tacos.
