some people i know have not gone out of their houses in weeks.
some will walk near their homes and run right back in.
meanwhile, i go food shopping and i see tons of people, many with masks and gloves on..
Florida's actions are more than negligent, they are downright criminal! That Governor is a fuggin' MORON!
The price of his idiotic stupidity will be paid in death.
That 240,000 person mortality rate is gonna be on the LOW side. That's optimistic. People are dumb as hell, and don't want to believe how severe this virus is. They're going to learn the hard way. Buckle up!
my old user account says i joined this forum 19 years ago, an intermittent poster starting 102 topics, the last about 12 years ago.
with my community under a volunteer stay-at-home policy and a mandatory curfew, i took the time to read all of my old posts and the replies, reminding me of how informative and therapeutic this forum was during my jw to ex-jw transition.. in 2018, my life took another turn with the death of my wife of 49-1/2 years after a long illness.
my writing, according to observers, lost its edge and purpose.. i travelled to asia, meeting a beautiful, intelligent woman in cagayan de oro, philippines, 33 years my junior.
Asian chicks are hot. I just hope you aren't suckered into housing her entire family cause they'll want to immigrate as well. Good Luck with all that!
can you believe this gibberish coming out of their mouths now; specifically from the clown-horse's own mouth :.
"things unfolding around us are making clear that ...(wait for it).."we are living in the final part of the last days, undoubtedly the final part of the final part of the last days,shortly before the last day of the last days"!!!!!!!!!!!!.
i wonder what next...ummmmm...final part of the final part of the final part of the finalpart...(on a recurring loop), you get the idea!.
All hail our Governing Body OverLord!

Fairly certain the Netherlands has had enough of the WT's bullshit by now.
jehovah's witnesses weren't jehovah's witnesses until 1931.until that year the people who had been hard-headed followers of end times false prophecies by william miller and seventh day adventists, more or less settled into following charisma-ballyhoo preaching by folks like "pastor" c.t.
russell.what was it that attracts these people?
it is a thin veneer of pious bible interpretation as a means of prepping for the end of the world.yep.
Very nice summation.
it looks like joe biden might be the next president of united states!

I recently heard that Biden was considering asking Michelle Obama to be his Vice President. As far back as January. Would she accept? I don't see why, as she and the Community Organizer are living large in their fucking mansions and raking in the $$$$. She's "movin' on up!!!!" and she doesn't need the headache of being VP and babysitter to Biden. Interesting idea though from Biden's camp; attempting to win over the female and people of colour vote. However, this could backfire spectacularly if Michelle opened her mouth the wrong way as VP pick Sarah Palin did years ago.
Biden isn't even cognizant. He actually said in a rally the other week, that he was the Democratic candidate for US SENATE!!!!!!!! I am NOT kidding. That is NOT a good sign for him. He looks like he should be entering a nursing home. Same with Bernie. Crazy old codgers. Even Hilary has Bernie down; been in the Senate for like 30 years, hasn't done JACK SHIT. No one likes him, no one wanted to work with him. But he thinks he Presidential material? lol!!!! Delusional old windbag from Vermont. "Meh chedder! Meh maple syrup! Meh free stuff!!"

Either way, Trump wins!!!!!!!
Sanders is such a Socialist (actually, Communist in disguise) that the true Democrats will NOT vote for him. They'd rather vote for Bloomberg if they had to.
And the Sanders supports will NOT vote for Biden!! So a party divided, will NOT win the Presidency. I am frankly STUNNED that these old rich white clowns are the best the Democratic party could come up with? I thought for sure Booker would go a lot further. Butt-e-gig was at least a Veteran and young. Kinda surprised he threw in the towel so early.
Looks like 4 more years of prosperity!!!!! The Democratic left might as well pull the dirt over themselves at this point. lol
this 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.
Ever seen the movie "Contagion"? It's actually very good. Stars Matt Damon. Guess where it all began in that movie? Yep, China!
yes, it’s donald trump’s problem and he has no idea of how to take care of this!
and he gets his vp mike pence to oversee this situation.
donald trump doesn’t care about who could get this virus.
When Obama was in office, 1,000 US citizens had already died before he even did anything! So please, this is NOT "Trump's fault", or anyone else's except the ignorant Chinese who insist on eating exotic species of animals that carry disease.
we hear how the economy is much healthier now.
are you better off than you were before, or the same or worse?
?.
Better off.
