    Well just found out the kid that hauled us rock other day was one of the people at that big party was talking bout. So that's fun. Not really worried seeing as it's been awhile and that kids not sick. But kinda funny how stuff gets connected.

    Apparently the one smaller party was at a doctors and his parents house too. Wonder if he was handing out business cards lol.

    So Italy donated and sent a bunch of PPE (personal protection equipment) to China a few weeks ago to help China with there high demand and need of those items. Now China sent back the unused equipment to Italy and charged Italy for the donated equipment. Stay classy China!

    Not sure how much to read into it, but when Trump was speaking on it during the CV taskforce briefing he on a few occasions spoke in the past tense on a few of his descriptions of Boris as a person.

    I'm sure most here can agree Trump does not choose some words wisely, but it did catch my attention the times he said it.

    I can't recall the exact quotes, but he used loved in a pst tense that really made me think if he let it slip accidentally.

    my dad finally got to meet my son. Dad was under the weather when he was born so didn’t want to chance anything. Dad also has horrible COPD, radiated lungs from lung cancer, and a whole other slew of health issues so he got about this close for the pic and then maintained about 8ft distance.

    Posted this on facebook, and helps to clarify my thoughts. I have never doubted the severity, but I did question the overall death numbers and some numbers in general.

    We are on a higher contagion factor with the Wuhan Flu/Covid-19 than we were with Swine Flu/H191

    Confirmed case at my work today. We knew it was coming. A production employee was sent home 2 weeks ago today with a fever. What do you know he tested positive. My employer conveniently “just found out” he was positive.....14 days after he was sent home. So everything peachy keen. Get back to work

    Hubby got " jumped " at the gas station yesterday on the way home from work. The guy was NOT happy with seeing him getting out of the company truck. " How come are you working in this lock down when ..bla bla bla are all out of work! " Hubby calmly pointed out that our democrat Governor gave the decision on school construction work essential status , up to the school superintendents. Of course they are all going to keep us working regardless the risk. The guy shut up.

    I think he wanted to make sure this guy didn't escalate before he had a chance to pump his gas.

    This one hurts. John Prine passed last night due to the Covid19. I dont care about most every celebrity out there but Prine was never really a celebrity. My uncle gave me a couple cassette tapes when I was younger and one of them had "Spanish Pipedream" on it. I have always thought it to be the most sound advice I ever heard. So, as a memorial I'm going to go plant some peach trees asap.
