U.S.A.....making it great again

Good point Molly.



I really don't know anything. But, I have to believe what the news stations are telling me....and we are now leading with the most cases, and that baffles me.

U.S.A.....making it great again

another reason it is as bad as it is, it is reported our supply chain from China for our supplies was interrupted. Okay...fair enough if it was for some plastic toy or something.

But...something as important as life and death was not already in stockpile for something like this?

Robert....I did here, at our local casino...they are still paying the wages of their employees even when the casino is shut.

I thought that was a beautiful thing.....especially from a casino.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Yes Molly...that sounds like a perfect way of spreading the virus, especially with how reportedly easy it is to spread.

Hello Robert....

All very good points.


You know, I mentioned this last night...but, I do wonder if this is a big enough event to be life changing. If so, let's hope it changes for the better....with a little less greed and a little more love.

Thanks Robert...

Pom....I might just take you up on that offer one day...about going to Norway. thank you thank you.

I wish I could offer the same to you...but we don't have open borders. ...another great feature of our country. lol

He also said, with people in a fearful state of mind, they are much easier to control.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Pom.... thank you for your kind jester.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Pom...I have heard a lot of beautiful things about your country. Maybe I should change the title of this blog...I guess I didn't mean it to demean other countries.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Molly...yes. Hopefully this is an eye opener and we do have the luxury of learning from it.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Pom, I have never heard of those.

U.S.A.....making it great again

I agree with that Molly.


I don't follow politics all that close...but from my understanding, the reason why we didn't have a universal healthcare system is that it would take away incentive for competition with offering top notch care.


Well....

U.S.A.....making it great again

I know I hear it said on the news, this is a learning experience.

and that is wonderful.


But...I have also heard it said on another show, that this "might be the big one."

....so....

is there ever a time where it is too late to learn.



I really don't know....just wondering is all.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Z....that is true also. I know China has a huge population and the way it sounds things are under control there. But maybe not.


I just know, through the years, there have been shows that have covered things like thing...posing scenarios where a virus spreads across the globe. It would have been nice for countries to have been prepared for something like this ahead of time.....it seems like it should have been a given, especially with the outbreaks in the past few years.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Thank you Molly for that clarification.

It would be nice of the whole globe was a "best" for everyone living on it....instead of the top one tenth of one percent.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Jim, I love my country too. And you are right, there is room for improvement with everyone of them on this planet. I guess the point of this blog is, if this is a lack of competence in our leadership...lets as civilians of this wonderful country recognize that and hopefully not repeat the same error twice.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Thanks Pom.


Will be going to sleep soon, nothing much else I can do at the moment.

U.S.A.....making it great again

.ooops. Z

U.S.A.....making it great again

Molly, maybe you have not heard it...but I know I have heard it here many times.


Z....it is just unbelievable that we have the top level of reported cases....maybe there are a lot of other unreported cases in the world; therefore, under reporting.

I don't know...really, I don't. It just baffles me with the numbers that are being put across my tv screen and we are suppose to be a great country..."again." If you use somebody's own words.

RE: A Day @ work

stay safe YSA....we are all in this together.

RE: How the times have changed !

Jim. good one

symptoms of Corona

Molly....so win/win potentially. :)

symptoms of Corona

Something that just crossed my mind....I have been drinking an unusually large amount of water lately. Before this isolation, I think I was on the run a lot and never really paid too much attention to if whether or not I was properly hydrating my body. But now, that I actually have some thought power left over to actually pay attention to my hydration, I have been doing that....drinking a lot of water.

If...hopefully I don't get sick....but if I get sick, would it not make sense that it would be better to go into that stage very well hydrated....seeing that having your typical flu usually leaves on on the edge of dehydration? I have heard that people who get the Corona virus hardly have any energy to even move. So...for what it is worth...this just crossed my mind.

symptoms of Corona

Wow Robert, you were not joking about your horse implant if you are using bread bags for condos.

symptoms of Corona

Nice Pat...it makes me wonder if Robert was not in some sort of delusion with his visit yesterday.

symptoms of Corona

Robert....you may want to isolate yourself.

symptoms of Corona

Good advice Molly.


I have managed to create a busy schedule for myself, even while being locked down. The weather around here is actually beginning to warm up a bit. Spring is coming. :) Once that happens, there is a lot I can be doing outside too.

Stay safe there.

symptoms of Corona

The most recent symptom I have heard, that I have yet to hear, is a 25 year old healthy young man was experiencing intense back pain. :(



I found this interesting last night on the Rachel Maddow show. She mentioned that in Louisiana, the spread/report of new cases, are very high in the last week. If my memory is correct, she said the highest one week growth reported anywhere in the world. They associated it with Mardi Gras.

Mardi Gras was February 25th.

this report was done on March 24th.

in the last week of the report...so from the 17th to the 24th.

If my common sense is correct, along with my math, .....it could take 3 to 4 weeks before people know they have the virus. (according to the data provided here about Louisiana).

Rachel Maddow said that this virus is very easily spread....just by being next to each other and breathing the same air...she says.

Stay safe all.

RE: "Trump has completely mishandled the coronavirus response and should resign"

interesting about the comet Mic. I have not heard anything about it until now.

symptoms of Corona

LaF...hmmmm


I can just imagine.
