Wuhan wet market delivery. Nothin like bats and potatoes as the ultimate comfort food!

I grew u learning to drive in nyc , starting with drivers Ed in high school. Knew every pothole on the FDR by heart, from the Brooklyn bridge up to Washington heights. My big joy of life was flying up or down the long one way avenues, say, third, or Madison, and hitting all the lights for twenty or more blocks. Not possible on Park because it’s two way, so u eventually hit a light. Big concern in picking routes. Nowadays I guess it’s all waze.

We would really all benefit from sticking to local news.

Would make a great movie. Impressive life lived.

Lots of people have said the world will end. As long as they don't go into too much detail regarding timing, they'll eventually be proved correct. I seem to think Daniels time-scales may have been shown to be a bit off.

@mik they got the bucks, now it's time for Buck Rogers!

I wonder if she has ever read the Constitution or any history behind it.

Hey, I qualified! I even had 54 more hours of science courses than needed. Of course, those were back when we were writing down ReDox equations with a stone tablet, hammer and chisel. Hate to know I even had to get 25% of an inorganic test right nowadays...

I think I read that in Countdown 1945. Great book.

@horace said in Parallel parking help: Education is important. Very generous of you to assume foresight. I always knew you were a thinker.

@jolly said in Too modern for me.: I dunno, that looks more like modern construction. I wonder what land values are in the Irish countryside? Low enough to support very much of this? I'd guess that Northern Ireland is cheaper than much of the rest of the UK or the The Republic of Ireland, which is notoriously expensive. You're right, it does look like an architect designed thing.

@jolly said in Pacemaker: https://nypost.com/2021/04/15/former-vp-mike-pence-recovering-after-receiving-a-pacemaker/ From the article: "Pence disclosed his medical history when he was nominated for vice president in 2016, including the diagnosis of asymptomatic left bundle branch block, the statement said." A left bundle branch block will not require a pacemaker. The electrical stimulus to the ventricles arises from the AV (atrial-ventricular) node. From there, the stimulus travels via two bundles of conductive tissue - one to the right ventricle, and one to the left ventricle. The one to the left ventricle bifurcates into anterior and posterior portions. The fact that he had a LBB indicates that the sick part of the bundle is before that bifurcation. Many people live with asymtomatic LBBB, and most don't even know it. The major physiologic effect of it is that the right and left ventricles don't contract at the same time (perhaps 120 milliseconds apart). With a LBBB, the stimulus goes down the right bundle, and then has to go back up the left ventricle - it takes a detour. Since the stimulus is going retrograde up the LV, the efficiency of the LV contraction is not as good as it could be. The fact that he required a pacemaker indicates that his disease progressed, probably to the point that no signal was getting past the AV node, and it started firing on it's own (it'll do that if not stimulated from above, in the atria), but at a slower rate - usually in the 40s or 50s. This is more than you wanted to know, of course, but I just find this kind of stuff fascinating. https://www.verywellhealth.com/left-bundle-branch-block-lbbb-1745784 Is a Permanent Pacemaker Required? Unless there is a reason to insert a CRT pacemaker to re-coordinate the function of the ventricles, most people with left bundle branch block never require a pacemaker.1 However, in some cases, the presence of left bundle branch block indicates a more general disorder of the cardiac electrical conducting system. In such people, the heart's electrical signal can become disrupted in several ways, and significant bradycardia (slow heart rate) may eventually develop, and a permanent pacemaker might be required.11 For this reason alone, people with left bundle branch block should make sure they have regular medical checkups.

The kid who was shot in Chicago was running from police AFTER shots had already been fired and he was carrying a handgun. It's very sad but that kid put himself where he was and his compatriots did too by promoting the gangster, ant-cop culture. To call this racist is ridiculous. Actually I think the cop is black.

It gets interesting tomorrow. That’s when it opens for general population.
