The way I read it a second time makes it seem like he waited until he was already into his quarantine period before announcing that he tested positive. Meaning he was beyond his quarantine period before going out.

Makes more sense. Anybody who knows they are infected and still goes out should have to face the music.

Alas, for now he, himself, is the ploy

Impeccable post-moniker synergy.

BTW, LOL at believing we’re better off with the government controlling everything.

I think they proved him wrong. Like it takes some kind of ignorance or hubris to post something like that.

@Tripod did you see where that guy was pulling people over in his (fake) cop car and executing them?

Kev, despite the contract and all the memes, is a good guy

I thought it was a dead heat between Iowa Governor Reynolds and Georgia Governor (really, it can be transmitted by asymptomatic people?) for dumbest politician, then I heard the Mayor of Las Vegas.

Folks, we have a winner!

Las Vegas mayor, Nevada governor spar over casino closures
Las Vegas mayor calls shut down "total insanity," demands Nevada governor reopen state now

Yes he was providing updates on it. Its truly awful.

Scares me to death how out of shape this Flyers team will be if the season were to resume.

Which is a shame because they had rounded into peak form when all this went down & were going to be an absolute pest to face in the playoffs.

But they’ve got some smart, funny, likable characters who I can’t say I particularly trust to be vigilant about health & fitness during this.

Provorov is going to have to carry them on his back.

I despise parents who bring their <10 yr olds to a rally, holding a sign with something the parent thinks. I hate parents who are able to act like their <10 yr old kid is able to reasonably come up with a "Mr. XY can keep his poison" quote. Disgusting people who are using a kid to push their opinion.

My grandma decided it was a great idea one day while babysitting little me to make a pit stop at an anti-abortion rally. She left me in the station wagon as she took off to talk to people who were carrying giant signs with chopped up fetuses and pushing around strollers with tombstones in them. I guess I never mentioned this to my mom until recently, which prompted a giant "WTF, are you serious?". This same grandma would sit at her kitchen table with an electric typewriter, cranking out furious letters to anyone who advertised during soap operas because they were too racy.

@Jack Straw

That’s a very daring owner. I’ve known some Huskies that would take off and tow that drone to the next county.

I have to think that he is well aware of how docile his dog is, plus it looks like he was right in front of him. I thought you'd enjoy it either way.

RESTAURANT APOCALYPSE: More than 110,000 restaurants expect to close up forever in the coming weeks, with millions out of work and the industry's future uncertain

Some data from Massachusetts:

“The average age of cases hospitalized is 68, and the age groups most likely to be hospitalized are in their 70s or older. The average age of deaths in confirmed coronavirus cases, meanwhile, is 80.”

Yeah...just a sad situation on top of all the Covid stuff.

They put out a release not that nong ago that the number of victims, is now at 23. It didn't sound like there was going to be anymore.

 

[Starat327]

Oh I did.

I enjoy just about any Husky video, because...well, who the hell doesnt enjoy looking at them?
