oh wow.... this is a heart stopper and I don't use that phrase lightly.

Burt was legendary on Carson's old show... so successful they talked about him doing his own show, either replacing Johnny at one point or doing the Letterman slot before Dave got it. Two other thoughts: Props to Marc for holding his own Norm's impersonation on SNL was so so good....

So it looks like a deal?

Just frustrating. Like having a neighbor that you know is going to poison your dog or smash your windows but you can’t do anything until they do it.

What would be so bad if other countries just snuck in some pilots and planes and shot up those convoys? Who would have to know? Just deny it. “Wasn’t us?” Why can’t it be done now? They have equipment.

They could have said no carts or only one person per cart. No foursomes. Stay six feet apart. of course nobody would have listened. But I give a pass on rules until around June.

Yeah the golf thing was dumb. I also equate the Jordan series with the pandemic. Our family spent a lot of nights together watching that and tiger king.

The certain part of the stores thing was because at the time the stores were only supposed to be open for essential products. But some big box stores carried everything. You can buy toilet paper and cleaning supplies at Lowe's but you can't buy paint because it's not essential. If they let you buy paint then they'd have to let "Joe's Paint Store" be open or else it wouldn't have been fair. It was also to help limit people just wandering around or being clustered in stores before anybody knew what was going on with the virus. My wife did get naked in our garage. That was one benefit. For a few weeks she would strip in the garage, throw a robe on, then shower. Then I washed her scrubs and robe.

Washing groceries was probably something we didn't have to do. And the initial focus on sanitizing everything.

We had this thread on the old board but I didn't see it here.... Well.... here you go.

with home tests and asymptomatic cases are way underreported but all that mattes now is hospitalizations. My wife's place had 2, 0 on ICU. We've ventured into the "If we had done no restrictions we'd be right where we are now with nothing different" talking point from the deniers.

"We can't do that, you make all the white men who have to get to work late just to help all all the poor immigrants and owmen who can't afford or don't need cars"

hundreds of billions?

When I was in Chicago last month I was reminded that it seems like there the cars are more aggressive, at least in the downtown area where I've only been, in turning right and ignoring pedestrians. they do like you said. When the crosswalk switches to walk I start walking and I did see some cars try to sneak in before I could get out into the median. LIke I'm supposed to give them that. I also remembered the thing i've only observed there where a car will start to turn, with no intention of completing the turn, just to sort of put the stake down that whatever happens with the light and # of pedestrians, once it's clear I am turning since I am already halfway there.

I grew up watching the Dukes of Hazzard and have the "Jumping on the hood" thing down to a science... at least I did 40 years ago.

My wife gets mad at me when we are running and I am apparently too aggressive at not yielding when I have the right of way... my theory is if you hesitate then the car takes that as you yielding. I only do that when I have the right of way but she will slow up a little. If we are approaching a four way stop in residential areas I run through but if I have a stop sign and they don't I will alter my route to go behind them so they don't have to worry about me. I hate stop/starting when running. Once I stop I need about 30 seconds to recalibrate my breathing. It's also fun when running to make people stop who you can tell had no intention of stopping. And you'd be surprised at the number of drivers who think, when waiting at a light to turn green, think they have the right of way once it turns green to turn right, against your white Walk sign as you start crossing. Happens at few times a week.

I can’t look for it now but I recall a Labor Day weekend walk off against Chicago where they came back in the ninth. I swear you can see AJ’s eyes roll as the the pitch is coming to Miggy for his walk off. AJ was walking away before he left the box.

Remember this was the GOP not long ago.

Yeah that seems like something we’d fall for back in 2017 from the Eric Garland/Seth types. In May 2017 I thought Trump would be toast by August.

Lets see if she gets kicked out of the party for that? She can be a Republican but Liz Cheney can’t? Make them own that shit.

The analogy I saw was a guy explaining to his wife he was just going out for a few beers… never mind all those strippers on that stage and pawing all over him.

What is the US offering beyond sanctions? Are we sending in equipment and weapons?

Is all of the denouncing matter without arms and troops? I mean I can denounce it standing here in my kitchen. What makes theirs more meaningful unless they offer something I can’t.
