  Isn't It Ironic That Many People Now Wish That Many of the Things China is Making Would Actually Be Made in Mexico?

  let me think of a few advantages to having mexico do more manufacturing for us:.

  - low cost labor .

  - just drive around or jump over the wall to see family and friends.

  I hate to through cold water on the Mexico idea But.....

  We bought a brand new house that had toilets that NEVER worked properly. Made in Mexico. We inherited a washer and dryer that were almost new when we got them yet, they are the absolute WORST. They have been serviced but we were told, "That's how they were made."

  The washer sounds like a cement mixer and tortures the clothes when it spins. The dryer FRIES our clothes on the coolest setting (delicate.) Sure enough, these were also Made in Mexico. Quality control would have to change drastically before I would make a major purchase or medicine made in Mexico.

  Question: "What's the longest you've ever stood in line?"

  Answer: The line to the women's restroom at the 1958 District Convention held in NYC. The peak attendance was 253,922. Not NEAR enough bathrooms for the over-crowded conditions. At 6 years old I thought I was going to wet my pants! I still remember desperately holding my mothers' hand because I was terrified I would be lost in the massive crowd.

  Actually any super large DC had ridiculously long lines. Especially in the '50s and '60s.

  My son-in-law has a friend who died recently of Covid-19. The man was in his 30's and had asthma. My SIL also has asthma so needless to say, I am concerned. They are in the LA area.

  do you guys think during this corona virus lockdown, the gb will be “raptured to heaven”, thereby escaping any lawsuit from irwin zalkin?

  if so, how would they explain that the 20,000 or so other ‘anointed’ are still here?

  brazil?

  of all the things people decided they needed to stockpile for a potential quarantine.

  all of the stores around my area ran completely out of toilet paper this last weekend.

  people were piling it into their carts and vehicles as if they were going to be holed up for a year.

  I tried to buy toilet paper 3 days ago and found there wasn't even a small package - at ANY price. When I told Hubby he asked, "Do we have any old Watchtowers or Awakes laying around somewhere?" After I finished laughing, I said, "Sorry, No".
