  1. Did you guys get tested because of symptoms or because you were around someone positive or as a precaution? So many scenarios are playing out. Doc friend told me of families where all have colds and one will test, get a negative, then they all assume negative. Not quite correct. Can’t rely on a single test for multiple people. Could have been flawed.
  2. Yeah. She’s tougher than you. Quit being such a whiney little baby. Her job is harder than yours. I guarantee it.
  3. It wasn’t. Sounds like your bosses are on some power trip and can’t imagine having to back track.
  4. I have little patience for babies that complain about having to wear a mask all day. My wife’s been doing it since this began while dealing first hand with the idiots and their families. Seriously. Grow the fuck up and get some balls.
  5. Also with regard to all this testing… how much of it is in response to symptoms or being exposed? Wonder come January 2 if the lure and demand to get tested drops dramatically as people are not being proactive because of a party or gathering coming up? Or being reactive because they were exposed?
  6. Learned something today with regard to hospital numbers. If a COVID patient is there longer than 21 days then they are considered “recovered”. Even though they are still hospitalized because of what COVID did to them… but they don’t have COVID anymore.
  7. The thing with hospitalization numbers is why they are there. Because of this spreading so fast many people are in there for other reasons but also testing positive. But it’s not why they are there. Not every place splits that out. Been reading some positive news today about T cells doing a good job and shorter hospital stays. Frankly the case numbers are probably only half of what’s real considering asymptomatic and “I can’t find a test” and home tests not being logged.
  8. Lack of leaders was also an issue. Not a lack of parents telling us what we should be doing CV though.
  9. Ah. That said I don’t doubt for a second she is a legit positive. It’s certainly possible.
  10. my 21 year old was in scouts through age 14. But with sports it got to be too much. There’s not as many kids today. Not as many leaders. And the kids are busy with other things. Scouts took a lot of time.
  11. Usually Republicans pose with guns for Christmas family photos
  12. How long ago was the first? Sometimes it sticks around for tests but you don’t have it and are not contagious.
  13. Harvesting is the keyword and thwir buzzword. As if you are out there planting and gathering votes that otherwise wouldn’t be cast and shouldn’t be cast.
  14. Keith is a lunatic.
  15. I took Vicodin once and hated how it made me feel. It didn’t dull the pain but made me not care about the pain. Or anything else. My wife took the bottle to work to dispose of.
  16. I feel fortunate to have been represented by someone who knew my name. I met her a few times before she got elected after John retiree. Rotary type events. A good friend was on city council and introduced us at one. We served beer together. When I saw her again she remembered my name. Even in my GOP days I gladly voted for John. Was very upset to walk into my booth in 2002 and see Conyers name listed. John did have an A+ rating from the NRA before they went batshit crazy.
  17. Hope it passes fast with no long term effects
  18. Wonder if Dingell will get squeezed out. Where I live we had John until 2002. Then Conyers. In 2012 back to John again. I’m in the souther end of 12 but Debbie’s current area goes south down to Trenton and Wyandotte. She had an office in Dearborn but moved it to Wyandotte after a break in. Also had one in Trenton. Looks like that area is 6 now. She might be one that is squeezed out. I might but stuck with Tliab.
  19. I won’t lie and pretend that if this reversal happened under Trump that many people wouldnt be bashing it that are not right now. But I also acknowledge that much of the criticism is politically motivated. given the contagious nature and explosion of cases combined with new knowledge of when we are contagious I don’t see the big deal. It went from being overly cautious to “you are probably ok and let’s not have everyone out at once if they don’t need to be”.
  20. do you swear on a Bible in court?
  21. It was really really good. I wanted to immediately watch it again.
  22. Terry I accidentally deleted your voicemail. I was able to read some of it on my app but the transcribe didn’t get it all. Still haven’t had a chance to look in my boxes.
  23. The shutdowns weren’t done to hurt trump. It’s because we had a raging and deadly virus and no vaccine. Now we have plenty of vaccines. Whitmer didn’t risk assassination just to hurt Trump.
  24. And to that… what God or religion. Evangelicals want to base policy towards Israel because of what they interpret in the book of revelations. The dimmer lot use arguments like “god made Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve”.
  25. Surprise surprise… trumpies have reading comprehension issues. If it don’t fit on a meme or bumper sticker then it’s too much info to process for their feeble brains.
