WTWizard: "You want a genuine reason to lock things down? How about tuberculosis. You get tuberculosis, you are going to have a far worse infection than any coronavirus. Even if you die from either, tuberculosis is a much more miserable death than coronavirus. And you get better about 98% of the time with coronavirus, most of the time without anything more than symptomatic treatment and/or supplements. Try that with tuberculosis. Yet, how often do you hear of "social distancing" or washing with soap and water for tuberculosis?"
Tuberculosis is caused by a bacteria and is treatable. As for your ridiculous anti vaccine statements and 'brain chip' tinfoil hat nonsense....Well it was just complete nonsense.

Do You Feel Your Rights Are Being Trampled On By Government Regarding Coronavirus?
by minimus ini support local and state and federal government’s power to safeguard the public.
i wonder is it getting to a point where we will be told we can’t go out anymore, can’t use your phone or computer anymore because of the viruses that we can get, etc.
are we prolonging this virus at all ?

I kinda miss late 90s internet. I liked people's quirky personal webpages before social media homogenized everything. I also liked the pre-text message world in some ways. If you were supposed to meet someone at 7pm, you did your best to be there at 7pm because you couldn't text in route saying "i'll be 20 mins late". Also, for MOST people, you didn't have work bothering you after you left the office. Unless you were VP level or something. Now Everyone is reachable all the time.

How much will Life Change after its all over?
by Slidin Fast inthis period of crisis seems endless and absolutely weird but end it will.. in the mean-time people are working successfully from home, the skies have cleared, international meetings are held on line.
lots of frustrating commuter journeys are just not necessary.
the world is cleaning itself almost visibly in days, the skies are clearing.

I think there will be some significant events in about 9 months:
1. A lot of babies being born
Maybe. Although now is not a time I'd want my wife making frequent visits to the doctor's office for prenatal care.

Not certain what Obama has to do with it? If you think that Obama’s birthplace is a “fact” then… maybe you’d like to hear about how “you can live forever in paradise on earth.” The truth is that we’ll never “know” for certain (partially his pre-politics self’s fault for muddying the waters via name-changes, misrepresenting and “finding himself”).
What we can reasonably foresee is that Obama will be viewed as perhaps the least effective president since WWII (move over Jimmy) and probably in the lower third of all presidents. History will not judge Obama favorably (and will not be swayed by the identity politics everyone seems to glom onto with this ‘articulate’ man). His foreign policy will probably be the area in which he will probably be most severely criticized by the historians of 2120.
This thread is about a Russian threat, about which Obama sneered ‘The 1980s called, they want their foreign policy back.’ He was brilliant …from inserting himself into low-level domestic race tensions (and inflaming them) to “leading from behind” ….the man was brilliant …wherever he was born.

no less than the motion picture academy has rated Tom Cruise deserving of acting accolades.
So an industry pats itself on the back. Whats that got to do with anything? I've never heard anyone state Tom Cruise is a great actor. He's just a famous one. Because he's been good at selecting roles in movies that alot of people have seen. But that's like saying McDonalds is overrated.

Evil Wind Chimes
by Sea Breeze ini remember going door to door in the late 60's with my mother as a 5 or 6 year old.
one time she caught me looking at the wind chimes on a porch.
she told me they had pagan origins, were evil, and were somehow connected to demons.

"However, if one’s motive in putting up a wind chime has nothing to do with false religion, superstition or demonism, and there is little possibility of others’ getting the wrong impression regarding its use in the home, it is a simple matter for personal decision."
lol. "demonism". Sometimes it still boggles my mind that this goofy religion has any adherents at all.

I miss James gandolfini from the Sopranos! He was an excellent actor and everyone that worked with him said he was the nicest person, nothing like the mobster he played.
He was definitely good at playing Tony Soprano. But he was so good at it that it was difficult for me to see anything other than 'Tony Soprano' regardless of the role he was playing or even if he was just doing an interview. I wonder if he could have broken out of that had he lived?
