It's probably best not to play the blame game. This virus is so easy to spread that you'd have to prove malicious intent when bad things happen. We're all just babes in the woods, in the dark. Well that's just the way I see it. Just make sure to ignore anybody that gives out nutty medical advice.

One thing we have consider is that a lot of people who test positive for
the virus don't feel sick, don't have any symptoms and don't get sick
... yet<?> I don't know if that means they are immune to it, resistant
to it, or just don't get affected enough for it to be a problem. We
keep hearing about places like nursing homes where staff are testing
positive and being sent home, but who are not sick. Meanwhile, their
elderly charges are dropping like flies.

When my daughter was age 16, she had a friend nearby and her
mother told her that she keeps a box of condoms in a drawer
and to use one if she needed it.
 
My daughter knew about that too.
 
So I told my daughter that I'll keep a box in a drawer here
too and whenever I might check, they damn sure better ALL
still be there! >;-o
 
She got the message! :)

Yeah, I know of a few cases where first baby's gestation period was
miraculously accelerated. Perhaps it was due to the white gown being so
tight on the day of the wedding. My SiL had one of those that was born
about 7.5 months after the wedding night conception. Curiously, the
Catholic girl that married my wife's was a secret for a long time. They
knew he had a girlfriend and that it was serious, but had never met her.
 
Then one night he brought her to meet the family and for Sunday dinner.
He was showing then photos..... this is the chalet where the gang goes
skiing. These are our friends X and Y, That is the mountain we
skied...... this is our daughter..... ;-)
 
 
FWIW my friend, a French Canadian, raised in a Catholic community and
educated in the Catholic school system, told be something interesting
that the priest taught them in sex education class. A woman can get
pregnant if she holds on to a man's penis for 10 seconds.

Not to pick a nit, but 1960 was 60 years ago. They used to sell condoms
in washrooms in bars. I wonder how many people thought they were
geniuses for scribbling "This gum tastes like rubber" in the wall beside
the safe dispenser.

You have to wonder which is the selfish, thoughtless, inconsiderate one.
Is it the people who to school and work hard and resent seeing their
hard earned money being taxed away to be spent on lazy, irresponsible
people, or is it the people who sit around day collecting welfare and
popping out more kids for other people to support.

The 1960s ended fifty years ago. Nearly every woman who's making babies
today wasn't even alive in the 1960s, much less worrying about birth
control.

That's the way it was on this rock for young women when we were in college. That's actually a good way to handle things. My wife assisted with some D&Cs back in those days.

I think it was much to difficult for the women who needed a medical
procedure and they often ended up going for risky illegal abortions.

Please, these are confusing facts for Americans. They did it on their
own and they did it because they're such good people. They're heroes
and they're the only heroes. Now stop confusing them.

Do you really think our supplies of oil will hold out that long?

I mowed on Friday for the first time this year. Took about two hours
on my 16hp lawn tractor at 6 mph with a 48" deck. Nominally, 6 mph.
I spend a ton of time turning and navigating around obstacles.

I am likely to have to mow this week. I had problems with my lawn
tractor. It was running like crap and sometimes would not turn over to
start. I sent it to the shop where they did a tune up adjusted the
valves, changed the oil and filter, changed the air filter, replaced
belts and sharpened the blades. It ran great when they returned it. The
other day I went out to use is to haul some brush and it would not turn
over. It's back in the shop now.
 
Dang. I thought I was ahead of the game by getting it in for repairs
before mowing season. I also had a scare about that because the Covid
thing had shut down non essential businesses. They sell farm equipment
and were allowed to operate. Then they added more restrictions and I was
afraid that it would be in there for the duration.
 
 
Oh well... I had envisioned coming out of isolation with few less
points. That hasn't worked out, but if I have to start mowing this acre
and a half with the walk behind I should be coming out of it in much
better shape.

We did all of that to ours (except adjust the valves). I had the honor
of scraping the deck clean.
 
Mine doesn't like to start when it's cold out, and once it's started
if I stop it before thoroughly warming up the engine it vapor locks (or
something) and won't re-start. Have to make sure I've got everything all
set up and there are no fallen branches before I start the engine.
 
Once the weather warms up it's fine, though. It's only an inconvenience
the first couple and last couple mows of each season.

Not true at all. The smell you get as a visitor is from ferrets
going to the bathroom in every corner unless they are litter
trained. Not many owners take the time to do that. As I said
before, they are very high maintenence pets.
 
Their bodies/fur don't smell any more than cats or dogs do.
Shame on you for believing such a common myth.
