    I do both of those things. Nothing gets handled by hands before it is wiped down. Any packaging that can be discarded is.

    Wipe, empty, discard. Exactly what I do.

    I read that. That is pretty amazing!!!!

    Maybe the leaders of Wimbledon are the ones behind the pandemic? They paid $X million to the Chinese to launch the virus so that they could get the insurance and make money without having to worry about doing the tournament

    @Aqua-Letifer said in Maryland's ramping up:

    @LuFins-Dad Kind of a blip, but even if the rate of increase isn't that bad, there still seems to be a positive rate increase.

    Yesterday was a 26% jump, today was a 12% increase, more in line with what we would expect to be seeing.

    My grandfather built a sailing ship out of matchsticks - it was good enough to get him in the local paper, but sadly I have no idea what happened to it.

    I wonder how long it'll take before job applications stop asking whether or not you received your degree online.

    I'm guessing that too, mark. Would explain part of the random severity of the disease in some and not in others.

    Ignorance is so dangerous to all of us. But this, is ridiculous.

    And yes, they are idiots. Anyone who threatens or harms a medical worker should be immediately arrested and incarcerated.

    You couldn't pay me enough to live in a city, let alone in a monstrosity like that building.

    Osama bin Laden lived with three of his wives in his compound and no one left for five years. It is now coming to light that he was the one who called the SEALS.

    I would have thought it would take a fair amount of time to compile death statistics for the entire country, particularly when the CDC is more than busy with other things.

    What's odd is how hard some people seem to want to try to deny what at this point should be screamingly bloody obvious.

    I ordered one of the molds to make these. Each mold has space for 37 Pelmemi, which are like a ravioli done Russian style. I showed my kiddo a picture of these and she's all into making big batches of these.

    I should get a second mold for the two of us to make big batches, because they freeze very well. Of course, the next time I'm at her place, we'll make boodles to fill her freezer.

    I also need to get a cookbook that has lots of recipes for various fillings. We love this kind of thing.

    There were billions for hospitals in the last bill. I assume there will be more in the next one.
