Joe Louis lived here and his little boy went to school (late 70s/early 80s) where my family member was Principal. Heard nothing but good things. Tyson - another local yrs. ago. Some wild cards in the fighting arena - not referring to Louis.

13Meet the greatest heavyweight champ of all time
by LoveUniHateExams inand no, it wasn't muhammad ali.. by most objective measures, the greatest heavyweight champ of all time was a guy called joe louis.. he reigned for nearly twelve consecutive years (june 1937 - march 1949) and made a record 25 successful consecutive title defences.
since 1949, every heavyweight champ has tried to break or even match this record.
all have failed.

I never thought about this - JWs actually excited during the COVIDA 19 trauma! They've no empathy for ill/suffering humans and that's beyond comprehension. The fear and panic is too much. Nothing shocks me re/the cult and it's horror. I hope the anti-viral meds are on the assembly lines asap and the malaria drug is successful in the interim.
Just blame their masters - whatever it takes because JWs are not in their right minds.

Good to hear re/sale but the article indicates they are busy building new halls and have growth -- is this because they've merged with 9 other halls? Hope it's fake news and the JW source is lying to the worldly media. -

I knew JWs (family of 4) that took advantage of free birthday cake at Olive Garden in the early 90s. Olive Garden gave out mini-round cakes back then. I couldn't believe - out of the mouths of babes - their jr high-age kiddos told me.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread
by Simon inthis topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

Good for the President of France - not smart to isolate then go out in crowd of even 10 people - maybe elections are the exception.
If more products were available on line it would help. I know they're working it re/keeping shelves stocked but empty stores cause so much panic - they need to start limiting the quantities each consumer buys.

Fingers crossed re/clinical trial of new vaccine starting tomorrow in Seattle. This must be the new vaccine from Israel - heard a chemist say a few wks. ago it would be ready in 3 wks. It could be another one but great news.

Walgreens here are inadequately stocked - ads in paper show they've stock of all the leading lines of paper products, Clorox wipes, etc., etc. It's all false - none of these items available in their stores or online. Maybe they're expecting their ship to come in.
A guy at Walmart (shopper) told me they're having issues - something about supply (obviously) and shipments. Walmart made statement re/new hours and no longer remaining open 24 hrs/day so employees can stock the shelves - there's a concept. Crazy but pharmacist at Smiths Food told me Sams Club is experiencing problems. Who knows - yeah, demand exceeds supply.

Trudeau is allowing Chinese to enter which means they can come here -- are the Chinese checked at border into US? Surely they are being stopped from entering US if, in fact, Canada is still open. Unreal.

I hope the medical is better in the other Euro countries than Italy - read somewhere recently Italy has the worse medical in the world. I know my adult child attended school there for a yr - became ill with flu and scared to death to go to hospital. Options were to fly home to US or get into the UK -- couldn't take any chances.
Why isn't the United States' CDC sending people to Italy to help - they offered help in China?

I was shocked but 'devout' JWs had all kinds of plastic surgery here. One elder's wife felt she had bags or something under her eyes and said it was a minor surgery - I don't think so - she looked like someone had blacked her eyes and unreal swelling. Scary! Couple other women same hall had face lifts - full face lifts and eye lifts - another one had her eyes done - eye lift or the extra skin removed. So many implants (silicon valley) - young gals - age 18 to 40, I'd say. Unreal - they are so brave. Many travel to Utah for cosmetic related surgeries - drastic price drop and a group went there for surgeries.
One other gal traveled to Guatemala for implants - she felt perfectly safe going. Some brave JWs! Another 2 had cosmetic surgery on their noses - one had lots of issues afterward but she'd had hers done 3 xs. I knew of lots of cosmetic surgeries here. I couldn't believe since I assumed they'd all be perfect in the new system they blathered about all the time. I don't think the elders would have objected but then again - I don't know and I don't think they cared one way or the other.
I heard a shrink one day comment 'if you're not happy with it change it or get it fixed' after saying previously - year earlier - that implants are a sign of insecurity. I couldn't believe and wondered what she was having done herself - sure enough - not implants but 'mini lift' - swear it was so mini I didn't notice. If anyone is brave enough so be it. My gay friends tell me implants are still very dangerous and nothing but problems/lolol. I've heard nose jobs generally have to be redone because the bone grows back - something like that. One JW told me if she could go back in time she would never have done it. Oh, she, too, had face lift and implants. One even had her arms done - the flab. WOW - just go lift weights and fo-get about it.
