It's just a book, written by men.

Dewey, you're wrong on multiple levels.

I hope it’s merely a typo that you confuse mark for Dewey. I have met both mark and Dewey in person. They are two different people.

No, I meant exactly what I said. Figure it out.

You quoted @mark's post and called him "Dewey."
It's quite easy to figure out that it's either a typo, or you have mistaken @mark for Dewey, or you thought the two are one and the same.
If you meant something else, then you were not saying what you thought you meant.

You're a smart lad. Figure it out.

@George-K You know, I was kind of wondering why they didn’t try to work up some kind of telework with some of you retired gaspassers. No way that you should be in the hospitals face to face, but they could certainly have mirrored the vitals of various patients to your computer and you could have been on FaceTime with Medical Technicians advising them and overseeing.

May y'all have a Blessed and Joyous holiday.

@Boris What level of coverage did your daddy buy for you? Did he get the BestWellness or EssentialWelness option?

I am thinking about Elite coverage plan but not the optional plans. They add a lot to the premium.

Yes but glass can be dangerous too. You can cut your hand on it.

@Mik

I have talked to some friends who will go for a drive (never leaving the car) just to get out and get away from being in the house.

I would think that something like that would make it seem like social distancing is not going well, but it really is in fact going well.

I would agree with that, but I have pretty extensive experience with small town cops. Technically we'd be violating the order. I'd not wish to have done all this perfect isolation then end up in some petri dish of a jail cell.

This is not a time to be taking chances. As I told, well, pretty much everybody, it's a time to think with your head, not your heart.

Lufin and Loki - y'all need new avatars. This L shit is confusing me. 😆

Mik's right.

If I can do it, so can anybody here. LOL

Eat me. 😆

I'm surprised you weren't aware of that.

... accompanied by no small amount of rather unladylike language, even if it was delivered in a lovely accent.

Upgrade your headphones, consider one with active noise-canceling technology.

@Aqua-Letifer said in About those bodies:

It takes a very special kind of stupid to actually have to see a body count before you can wrap your head around the relative severity of a health crisis everyone is telling you is going to happen.

Not to mention that you have seen happen other places.

We just got word that one of our delivery drivers lost their mother to a heart attack last night. No word about whether she was symptomatic, but I can’t help billy wonder if asymptomatic cases can still result in cardiac arrest for those at risk? She had HBP and Diabetes.

I chuckled at the “this is my metric” part.

Yeah that was gold. I'm stealing that for a blanket argument stopper for all Zoom meetings.

@LuFins-Dad

Hubby and I are staying home. We'll talk with daughter via Google hangouts, which we do most days already.

And we'll watch the snow fall. Supposed to get 6 to 10 inches of very dense and heavy snow. It'll melt quickly, so no big deal, especially since we're not going out.

@brenda Thanks! I had never noticed that before.

Think about the force involved...

It didn't work out.
