Didn't jon also bring back crabs from his last vacation?

No, I left 'em there.

@Jolly said in Joe, you're an idiot.:

I'm not sure how to wake the economy up. I'm not sure anybody is.

Right now, our governor said that if we don't start bringing back some things in May, half of all Louisiana small businesses will fail.

A huge part of it is going to be public perception. In other words, if you open before a safe plan is fully implemented and people freak out from overwhelmed hospitals and loved ones dying at home, people are going to start to stay home again and you'll have accomplished nothing. Positive thinking isn't going to fix the economy.

Being conscious for the surgery sounds awful 😲

I´m glad to hear it´s not painful for you now, Horace. What a terrible time to need medical attention. I hope you´re able to avoid another surgery.

No passenger, or are the Canadian media just less boisterous?
American media would hype up a second Sullenberger from something like this.

Normally, I'd be laughing my ass off, but he's just sucked all the fun out of this epidemic.

Interesting chart. I was reading something that in the US, non white poeple seem to get the virus more than their per cent of the population.

Not sure if that is because most of the cases are in big cities, and there are more nonwhite people there?

Also saw the obesity number. Somebody was speculating that is why poorer countries have not been hit as bad as expected. One reason may be less fat people there.

Re minorities- More dense neighborhoods, more co-morbidity, less likely to be able to work from home, larger families.

Poor countries - too early to tell how much is masked by testing.

@brenda That was cruel. 😢

I sent that to D2 - the psych doctor:

"Irritability is a sign of withdrawal from weed. But yeah wtf are we supposed to do with the mf kids?"

"I am reading my students reports all day and I could use some weed. They write like shit"

"In fact it would probably make more sense if I was high while reading it."

I watch a lot of YouTube on my TV via Roku, and hardly ever get a commercial at all, which now I come to think of it is rather odd.

I've always thought Romney was an asshole. His disagreement with Trump isn't one of principle, it's more him deciding to position himself for the future.

He did do a pretty good job as governor of MA, but he's still an unprincipled political flip-flopper.

What we think of Trump shouldn't have any bearing on what we think of Romney.

It's true, though. We isolated several days before the state even talked about it. Seemed like common sense defense. Since we are retired, the opening up won't affect us much if at all. I still cannot catch this.

I always thought Dennehy should have done more westerns. He just seemed right for the role.

Thanks Brenda!

Yeah no joke!

Great video. So cute!!! 😍
