Masks may be standard gear for everyone until
there's a vaccine, or until you've survived
the China virus and made your own immunity.

It is a curious thing about rice in local stores. The usually size bags
are in short supply, but the big bags are available. I would have
thought is someone was stocking up for Armageddon they would be buying
up the big ones.

We much prefer egg noodles to rice... we would never make good chinks.
We even prefer egg noodles to pasta... our dinner tonight was
saw-seege, home made tomato sauce, and wide egg noodles.

No, that was another troll (Christkiller) who started out on this ng
ranting about religion and then started yakking about gluten free and
cauliflower.

Exactly. My friends and I used whatever our mother's gave us to go
crabbin' with, usually pieces of chicken. Bones, neck, gizzards...
This was when we lived in SC the first time around when Dad was
stationed on Parris Island. I don't know when Gary got to be such an
expert on the things I've done. He wasn't there.

Dangling chicken leg bones in the water on a string? LOL. Now I
KNOW you've never gone crabbing. And you would never want to
kill and clean them. Princess don't play dat.

There is now and always has been healthcare for everyone in America...
simply pay for it... no one is demanding FREE healthcare for everyone.
FREE healthcaare would be like commie POW food. Americans are free to
buy the level of healthcare they want and can afford... same as they
are free to buy the level of automobile they want and can afford.
Seems that Bruthie would choose Yugo healthcare.
No country on this planet offers the same level of healthcare and
transportation to everyone... does the Queen of England live in a
hovel, ride in a Yugo, and dine on rodent stew?

Australia's following Australian rules, not American rules.

Australia's population is condensed in big population centre's. And
people flock here too. Half of Sydney is Chinese.

Yes, watching the news right now. In one place 4% have the antibodies
and they think the actual rate of infection may be 85% higher. More
testing needed.

The people smart enough to be a good president are smart enough not to
run for office. What a terrible process.

I saw a funny post on FB recently about how there are a lot of parents
homeschooling their kids and are starting to realize that the teacher
was not the problem. Another one posted about two gets getting expelled
for fighting and the teacher was fired for being drunk on the job.

It's an ego thing to be POTUS, perhaps
the most powerful man on the planet.

Yes, foreign countries... that's asking a bit much of Creme Fraiche.
"Foreign countries... brrr... do they really exist? And do they speak
English there, like Jesus did?"

Trump was too slow. He underestimated the problem completely. He let
the cat out of the bag and now you're all suffering trying to get it
back in. You have 38773 corona deaths. Australia has 69.

It doesn't matter who brought it up Pruce.

Do they really want you doing that? Those boxes have limited capacity
and if people keep dropping them in there the books could be sliding off
onto the floor, which tends not to be good for them.
