  1. a I posted this elsewhere but thought it might be of some interest here as well. “Just an interesting anecdote about perspectives as regards the danger of the coronavirus. An old, old friend and roommate of mine in our younger days is a life long pharmacist. To put it bluntly, he thinks we are overwrought as to the handling of the coronavirus and falls (still) very much on the side of it being just a bit worse than the flu. He quite often sends me updated numbers concerning various maladies with death rates, actual deaths, etc. vs. what we know so far concerning the coronavirus to support his position. Not a dumb guy........for the record. His wife is also a pharmacist but in the course of her career she has held fairly prominent executive positions with several major pharma companies and even been the CEO of a pharma start-up a year or so ago (she rang the opening NASDQ bell as part of that time). In following her Facebook posts, she takes it very seriously and seems very much to fall on the Dr. Fauci side of things. Two very smart people who have a real degree of expertise as regards this (admittedly not epidemiologists) who are at absolute opposite ends of the spectrum. If two people with that sort of pedigree (who somehow actually live under the same roof) are so vastly far apart just how do the rest of us truly know just where we should fall on the spectrum.”

  2. This alone exposes what a bloated monstrosity the U.S. Healhcare Industrial Complex is.

  3. I’m not sure I follow you. Did the government force these hospitals to lay people off? Sounds like a decision by their employers to me. Hospital patients still need medical care, facilities need to be cleaned/maintained and patients need to eat. As you said previously, people still are involved in accidents, are sick and can get sick by any number of things besides Coronavirus, so why the need to lay off medical workers?

  4. OK, you can’t mention David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar. Got to be one or the other. 😉

  5. John Kay gets my vote. I'm definitely biased. John Kay (born Joachim Fritz Krauledat, 12 April 1944). Kay was born in Tilsit, East Prussia, Germany (now Sovetsk, Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia).[1] His father Fritz, born 13 June 1913 in Absteinen (Opstainys in Pagėgiai Municipality), near Pleskau[4] was killed a month[5] before Kay was born. In early 1945, his mother fled with him from the advancing Soviet troops during the Evacuation of East Prussia in harsh winter conditions. Their train got stuck near Arnstadt, which was first occupied by Americans, but then became part of the East German Soviet occupation zone. In 1949, they crossed the already fortified border to resettle in Hanover, West Germany (as recounted in his song "Renegade" on the album Steppenwolf 7). Now living in the British occupation zone, the young Joachim, who suffered from eye problems, listened to broadcasts by the British Forces Broadcasting Service, like the Uprising of 1953 in East Germany. He also saw a news reel about the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, shot and smuggled out by László Kovács of later Easy Rider fame. Kay and his family moved to Toronto in 1958. Five years later, they moved to Buffalo, New York.

  6. I would have bet nothing could exceed the ineptness of the GOP, but I was wrong. To go through the year long publicity stunt that was the impeachment process, and the best the Dems could come up with is Sleepy Joe? Somehow, the American political process has mutated so that it now operates to de-select any person of substance as a viable candidate.

  7. Just because I post a meme doesn't mean I believe it or support what it says. That's something my grandma would think. Old people don't understand the internet, you fit right into that category whether you're old or not. Stop being such a douche.

  8. 1. *you're 2. The bloated pharmaceutical giant in Indianapolis (that I can now bad-mouth because my aunt no longer does drug development for them) doesn't produce "life-saving compounds", but rather superfluous crap for decrepit Boomers.

  11. Possibly, but as I've heard from many, if someone has a heart condition, diabetes, or something else, it could have sped up the death.

  13. Coach Kelly is a stand up leader of men. Seymour fan here and I can tell you that records don’t speak to this coaches ability. Seymour is starved for talent, size, athletes and has gone up a class to 5a due to a 38% Hispanic rate (overall) which we don’t get the benefit of added players. It’s a tough place to be competitive. With that being said- Kelly has done about as good a job as anyone could. we hate to see him go, but understand the move to a more target rich area. He’s a no nonsense, do your job kind of coach.

  14. Yeah, went there and all you see is ads for Facebook. Got any verification on these “statistics” from a reliable data source? No wonder you didn’t want to share your source for treatment effectiveness of Trump’s miracle cure.

  16. Trump - "I don't know Parnas, other than I guess I had pictures taken, which I do with thousands of people, "I don't know him at all, don't know what he's about, don't know where he comes from, know nothing about him. ... I don't believe I've ever spoken to him." Parnas Lawyer - Posts video of Trump and Parnas talking at Maralago with another crook. Trump apologists - "There is no audio....you can't prove he was talking"

  17. Old people getting help with SS....sounds like a scam Boss Hamilton was running. Lee retired and was replaced by another Democrat. Also, the district was not really changed until 2012 when the 9th went from SW and South central Indiana district to basically an I-65 corridor district.

  28. No doubt at a government sponsored educational factory where the fruits of my hard work are stolen by the government in order to babysit the dregs of society. DeVos and Muda 2020!

  29. Yes. Rather than spend a few million to fund the special olympics, it would be cheaper to cage the disabled and laugh and heckle and throw crap at em...cuz ya know...they ain’t normal and offer no material benefit to society.
