Re: Giuliani in PA Federal Court

If the facts are against you, argue the law. If the law is against you, argue the facts. If the law and the facts are against you, there's a good chance you work for Trump.

Re: Pence and the COVID Task Force

Gee, 2,000 deaths in one day. U.S. troops at Omaha Beach on D Day had 2,000 KIAs. So, would D Day every day bother Mike Pence?

Nah, I don't think so.

Re: Hey Friends

My zip code has @28K people and has had a total of 328 positive tests. Me, I am virtually quarantining. At my age (73) getting COVID-19 is like playing Russian Roulette with a six shooter. Odds of dying are around 1 in 6.

Re: Self Quarantine, Day 29

One thing I have discovered while all this is going on; my temperature is always sub normal. I know this happens as we age, but I haven't even hit 98 degrees once in a month. 96.5ish is the new normal. Going to get this checked out if I can ever [more]

Self Quarantine, Day 5

A.M. Temperature, 97, no symptoms. So far, so good. The wine cellar is taking a real hit.

Much to be grateful for, especially selling Boeing at $420. They may actually go broke.

Re: Poll: have you changed any travel plans?

Hi

Naj has been all over me because I failed to inform you all that I HAD A DENTIST APPOINTMENT ON MONDAY.

In contrast to my past behavior, I have decided to go over the cliff and ride this one out. It sucks.
