Wednesday Overnight Open Thread (4/29/20) It Is What It Is Edition

The Quotes of The Day


Quote I

"Mass unemployment in the United States was a choice. We had policy options in front of us and we could have guaranteed payrolls in the United States of America to prevent any person from losing their job due to Coronavirus. And what did elected officials do? What did Mitch McConnell do? What did Donald Trump do? They chose not to do that. So these are not things that happen by accident. Unemployment is not happening by accident." Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez


Quote II

It’s clown questions like this that can make the briefing a waste of time. The only point of that question was to provoke. Not learn anything new. Not provide information to viewers. The point was to get under Trump’s skin. Good to see potus rose above and didn’t take the bait. Ari Fleisher


Quote III

“Due to her disregard and the multiple warnings she received, the sergeant advised the business owner that he was going to refer her to the District Attorney’s Office for the charge of violating the Governor’s Orders and that each day that her business continued to stay open would result in another charge,”Oshkosh Police Release

And this boys and girls is what a Police State looks like.


Quote IV

We've reached Peak Fucktard.

I thought we had achieved this ignominious goal several times before -- the elevation of an Affirmative Action hire to the Presidency; handing out mortgages to people who couldn't pay them back; the destruction of the Western University as a beacon of enlightenment; the elevation of the Kardashians to billionaire status -- but I have obviously been mistaken.Matthew Noto

Accountable and electable? Only if you are a brain dead hypocrite dumb bint.

MeToo pioneer Tarana Burke has finally spoken out on the Tara Reade’s bombshell accusations against 2020 Presidential candidate Joe Biden.

Burke suggests in a 14 part tweet stream that Biden “could demonstrate what it looks like to be both accountable and electable”

Burke writes:

I took a moment away from work and movement-related issues to be present where I was needed as my family was affected with COVID. But, I know many of you are wondering about my “take” on the Tara Reade story. 1/14

My stance has never wavered: survivors have a right to speak their truth and to be given the space to heal. 2/14

The inconvenient truth is that this story is impacting us differently because it hits at the heart of one of the most important elections of our lifetime. And I hate to disappoint you but I don’t really have easy answers. 3/14

I consider myself a normal red blooded American. Although I'm "29" I can vaguely remember being 4 years old. Masturbation and gender identity was not on my mind.

WHO guidelines for sex education recommend that children aged 0-4 be taught about “masturbation” and “gender identity.”

The World Health Organization’s ‘Standards for Sexuality Education in Europe: A framework for policymakers, educational and health authorities and specialists’, advises children be taught about sexually pleasuring themselves and transgenderism before they’ve even fully learned to talk.

The WHO advises that children aged 0-4 are given “information about enjoyment and pleasure when touching one’s body… masturbation.”

Toddlers are also to be encouraged to “gain an awareness of gender identity” and given “the right to explore gender identities.”

In the ages 4-6 bracket, educators are urged to “give information about same-sex relationships” and “help children develop respect for different norms regarding sexuality.”


It takes a village to screw up a child forever.

First of all, my apologies that the next link is behind the WSJ paywall.


You thought A.A. was for quitters? How about our "educators". Oh it's so tough, wah, wah, wah. F*cking overpaid underworked cry babies.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Wall Street Journal:
Some districts are giving up on remote learning and ending the academic year early, after concluding that it was too cumbersome for teachers, students and parents. Washington, D.C., as well as parts of Georgia, Texas and elsewhere plan to end a week to several weeks early. Schools have struggled to launch remote learning for more than 50 million children across the country during the coronavirus pandemic in the largest experiment in remote learning ever. Among the issues they've encountered, not all students have internet access or have parents available to help, causing concerns about inequity. As a result, many districts haven't required schoolwork be completed or graded. Student participation, when schools are even able to measure it, has often been below regular attendance level.
When schools do eventually reopen, they'll look vastly different than they did before. There may be more scheduled days home, more online learning, and lots of hand-washing.

Regular readers of The ONT know that I'm not a fan of Elon Musk and Tesla. However, when he is right I'm going to give him his due.

Elon Musk spoke out against the ongoing coronavirus lockdowns in a Tuesday night tweet. In subsequent tweets he linked to a Wall Street Journal column arguing that the measures are ineffective in saving lives and to a story about Texas businesses planning to reopen on Friday.

"FREE AMERICA NOW," the Tesla and SpaceX CEO wrote to his 33.3 million followers, echoing President Donald Trump's "LIBERATE" tweets from earlier this month.

Never let a crisis go to waste.

A province in South Africa has identified a “new trend” in which criminals use coffins and hearses to transport illegal drugs during the nation’s coronavirus lockdown, South Africa’s News24 reported.

On March 27, South Africa’s government initiated a nationwide lockdown in an effort to curb the spread of coronavirus. During the shutdown, due to last until the end of April, travel is allowed only for essential services and social distancing is enforced. South Africa’s coronavirus lockdown has been considered one of the strictest on the African continent, and it includes a ban on alcohol sales.

A funny thing happened. Trump got all of the blame but when the truth comes out, the f*cking press is nowhere to be found. I'm not a detective, but this story stunk to high heaven when first reported.

The Mesa City Police Department's homicide division is investigating the death of Gary Lenius, the Arizona man whose wife served him soda mixed with fish tank cleaner in what she claimed was a bid to fend off the coronavirus. A detective handling the case confirmed the investigation to the Washington Free Beacon on Tuesday after requesting a recording of the Free Beacon's interviews with Lenius's wife, Wanda.

Gary Lenius, 68, died on March 22. Wanda, 61, told several news outlets last month that both she and her husband had ingested a substance used to clean aquariums after hearing President Donald Trump tout one of its ingredients, chloroquine phosphate, from the White House briefing room.

Detective Teresa Van Galder, the homicide detective handling the case for the Mesa City Police Department, confirmed that the investigation is ongoing but declined to provide additional details.

"As this is an active investigation, I cannot go into any details at this time regarding the case," Van Galder said. The Free Beacon provided a recording of its interview last month with Wanda Lenius.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

funny-restaurant-signs-el-arroyo-texas-25-5ea29929067a0__700.jpg


***


The Gestapo is alive and well in Michigan.

A Michigan doctor has had his Metro Detroit clinic raided following allegations that he was “illegally” treating coronavirus patients with Vitamin C.

Dr. Charles Mok, who leads the Allure Medical Spa in Shelby Township, has been accused of committing health care fraud and conspiracy to commit health care fraud. He is being charged in federal court for these supposed crimes.

Mok is an advocate for treating coronavirus patients with Vitamin C in order to boost their immune systems while they fight off the virus. This has become a controversial notion, as hysteria proponents stand in the way of any treatment that does not involve forcing vaccine shots into millions of people.

I'm glad that you asked, why yes I was attacked by the Genius Award Winner.

-In the dark days of quarantine, a Florida Woman yesterday brought a little holiday spirit into her home by allegedly battering her boyfriend with a candy cane, according to a police report.

Cops say that Christina Zicuis, 35, got into an argument early Saturday morning with the victim inside a Clearwater residence. The pair quarreled “about Christina’s daughter who is not alive.”

The dispute turned violent when Zicuis stabbed the victim in the arm with a pen, causing him to depart the home. Zicuis then allegedly chased the man--who cops identified as her boyfriend of seven years--into the front yard and tossed a brick (which missed Zicuis's fleeing target).

Zicuis then “threw a candy cane at the victim’s left arm, causing bruising and swelling to his elbow,” reported a Clearwater cop who listed “CANDY” as the weapon wielded by Zicuis.

Birthday parties are forbidden. Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

What’s the best birthday party you remember having as a kid? Did it have a bounce house? Zoo animals? Regardless, it probably didn't have a bunch of strangers cranking burnouts in front of your house. Your birthdays may have been cool, but they've got nothing on this kid's idea. A 13-year-old Florida boy and his family set up a trap for anyone driving through their neighborhood by making a “Burn-Outs For Birthdays” sign, issuing the challenge: “Bet your old shitbox can’t make clouds.”

Even happier news, no Karens or Cucks ruined it by calling the Stasi police.

51 That sign from El Arroyo reminds me of the summer of '86, which I was able to spend in Austin, and that was before the City turned into the overcrowded liberal shithole it is now. It was still a hell of a great place to just hang out, and one of the best parts was to find some old looking restaurant on the side of a road with a signboard out front looking exactly like that, with something smart on it, and you could walk in and find some of the best food you'd ever had, as well as the best drinks and usually some cover band that was just hanging out. Now that was a time and I place I'd have loved to have spent a lifetime in.

but nothing lasts, and that Austin is long gone.

I don't want to politicize the ONT...much.

But does anyone get the sense that Biden...and I know the possibility is slim...but does anyone get the sense that Biden won't be the D nominee?

It does seem, even if slowly, there seem to be leftists who're turning against him.

It might be a slim possibility, but I just...feel something in the air.

I think it's time for an official or at least unofficial betting pool on if and when Biden drops out.

Also, put this in the last thread.

Only watch this if you wish to become infuriated beyond all ability to think clearly.

That pic is beautiful, guessing maybe September, because there is still some green, and the fall storms haven't blown off those magnificent bronze and red and gold leaves yet.

If you drive Hwy 2 (Stevens Pass) late in September in WA state west to east, the entire eastside of the Cascade mountains are that color for about 8-10 miles or so, until you drop down maybe close to a thousand feet of elevation, and into where the evergreens start coming back into view.

It's incredible. Only lasts a couple of weeks a year, until the first big storm.

91 not all students have internet access or have parents available to help, causing concerns about inequity

This is what I've observed. The problem is supposedly not that these circumstances impact an individual student's learning. The problem is inequity.

Equity is a recent buzzword and it bugs the heck out of me. It suggests that if a student can't take full advantage of a learning opportunity, then everyone's opportunities should be restricted to match those of the most disadvantaged student.

Oh, it isn't just a word for 'educators' and school boards. Our Hyper-progressive City Council, last year, voted to fund a 'Office of Equity Management'.

Ideas like this do not spring into life spontaneously, it was certainly imported from other Prog Hell.

So, they voted for the $250,000 to fund this counter-productive sham, and hired a very angry woman from Seattle to head the thing.

Well, there's always the exception that proves the rule. Plus, teh ghey.

There's a video on Ritchie Blackmore's OFFICIAL youtube channel where he talks about how he hired Graham Bonnet for Rainbow (who was one of the few hard rock guys that dressed well and had short hair) and then tried to force GB into growing his hair out. Including stationing a roadie outside GB's hotel room because he KNEW that GB would try to slip out to hit the hotel barber shop.

GB immediately climbed out the window and disappeared. Blackmore was PISSED, and frankly comes off as kind of a dick about it (yeah, big surprise...).

At one time, Alvin Lee was considered 'the fastest guitarist'. He played blues/rock like no other.

This version of 'Help Me', off their double live album (a very good album, BTW, one that should be in anybody's collection if they have a collection they brag about -- and even if they don't brag about), is definitive of that blues/rock Lee was so good at.

Ten Years After.

Alvin Lee on guitar. Fastest fingers in the West.

I'm Goin' Home.

His Woodstock riff kicked the entire Festival wide open, and is the most well known performance, but his live version at Winterland, SF, 1978, was a better recording, and true to his talents.


Take a listen for what I am talking about.

Not too bad, but the fire department had to make like three holes in the wall to get to the wiring, so my sister has a house with three holes letting all the cool air out.

255 Which 10YA original album should I start with?

Posted by: qdpsteve at April 29, 2020 10:43 PM (L2ZTs)


Either 'Ten Years After Recorded Live' (that live double album I referenced above) or 'A Space In Time'. From there, you're on your own. They only had 10 studio albums plus a number of live albums. To me, Lee shines on the live stuff. And that is the exact opposite of many bands who shine in the studio but can't do it live.

Alvin Lee was a considerable guitar talent and vastly underrated/underappreciated today, if (ahem) known at all.

263 An amusing story on Portland Reddit regarding the shutdown.

The State of Oregon gets about five percent of its revenues from state-sponsored gambling. Most of that money comes from video poker in bars and restaurants. Video poker is designed to be as addictive as possible, and although the State of Oregon doesn't like to discuss it, a big chunk of video poker revenues come from addicts who are spending basically all their disposable income on video poker.

Well, every video poker addict in the state has had to go cold turkey, with the restaurants and bars being closed, and one of them wrote that it was Just Great! He has money now! He can afford better food than ramen and PBJ sandwiches! He's not borrowing money and drunkenly spending it all on video poker! His life is much improved!

This is a huge financial problem for the State, of course. I can only imagine the State advertising campaign after the bars and restaurants reopen to get the addicts readdicted again.

Video Poker is Fun! Remember that Wonderful Dopamine Rush - Why Not Get It Back?

C'mon - Just Play Once! It Couldn't Hurt!

thanks, nurse. I''m turning on the radio now.

Last night was game 5 of the 2001 playoffs against Cleveland. Dave Niehaus in his prime.

Dave Niehaus was a master on the microphone. He absolutely deserved his HOF jacket. He paints a complete picture of what is going on with his voice like Picasso did with brushes and canvas.

When Dave passed in 2010, I cried more than once. He was like the cool uncle who you grew up with.

Governors know that if they reopen their state ahead of other states, the media will say that the governor is personally responsible for any CCP virus death in the state after reopening.

Spooky Tooth was like a prep school for other bands, just like Free. (With Free, just about everyone knows or has heard 'All Right Now', but I really like 'Catch A Train', a hard rockin' song, almost presaging Bad Company.) I always loved Spooky Tooth's album title, 'You Broke My Heart, So I Busted Your Jaw'; that title would never happen today! Their 'Witness' album was a good one and so was 'The Mirror', which might have been their last studio album. Good to go out on a high note.

I've got ONE driving assignment, coming up Saturday morning. First one in about five weeks.

Been busy making sheetrock dust at the house. I had to repair water damage caused by a leak, which was caused by the original builder using punk-assed labor and the world's cheapest materials.

Got THE high-intensity test of all tests, just last night.

Major thunderstorm, minor hail, 50mph winds, all bearing against the repaired exterior.

My fixes held, and my interior wall came through, tight and dry.

Now I can final sand it, texture it and paint it. Wasn't going to commit to those final stages till I knew it was *fixed*

But *fixed* doesn't pay the bills. It just keeps the mind and hands busy.

Dumb question though. How much capital would have to land on your business to see it through?

If I get symptoms, there is no way I am getting tested. Reported is some guy got tested by his GP, test came back negative. Then got a letter from the state that he tested positive from a location he didn't go to. The letter stated that he waived all his rights to objecting to the results, going to court over the results and he could be forced into state-controlled quarantine if he was found to be in public before he was cleared by the state (he was in a database now).

He's paid back most (I think all) of the government loans he's been given (which NEVER happens, like, ever).

387 Quote II: "If an American President loses more Americans over the course 6 weeks than died in the entirety of the Vietnam War, does he deserve to be re-elected?"

You could hear the hate dripping off of Olivia Nuzzi when she asked it.

She thought Obama deserved re-election when he "lost" thousands and thousands to H1N1. She didn't ask him, though. It never even would have occurred to her. Nor would she ever ask China's Xi, even though he is the president who "lost" them. But the question does show what is truly important to Democrats about this virus: beating President Trump.

Acosta tried a different version of "MUH Grim Milestones(tm.)!" and failed, too.

Of course it is a gutter question by a stupid hack, comparing the Virus to Vietnam. Presidents don't "lose" epidemic patients except in the heads of deranged journalists.

But on second thought, in Vietnam, we fought against Asian Communists and their American Communist allies to stop tyranny--so maybe it is like 'Nam after all.

396 379 LCD,
I was home from work that day and my kids went on awalk with me down to the Ballard Locks. We had lunch at a sammich store and saw the Ms were playing a day game. We almost hopped on metro to go to the game.

We missed a perfect game


Posted by: nurse ratched at April 29, 2020 11:31 PM (U2p+3)


similar to me, one of my brothers called me that morning, said "it's an afternoon game, we will scalp some tickets and get in cheap."

I remember more my little brother reminding me of my poor decision for many months after, again and again. Yep, the Cougar.

Was the sandwich spot the Lockspot, next to the entrance of the Locks? Excellent fish and chips, by the way. Or the Totem House is across the street for fish and chips, too.

Anyone planning a trip to Seattle, make sure to reserve a few hours to visit the Ballard Locks. There is no admission charge. Stand right next to boats and small ships of all kinds going to or from Puget Sound and fresh water (Lake Union and Lake Washington) and people on their boats are usually willing to talk with you for the 20 minutes or so to fill or drain the lock.

You can watch the salmon runs pass through under the water, there is some glass to stand behind to see the fish go by. And the area, the lawns and flowerbeds, are flawlessly maintained.

And eat at the Lockspot (it's a bar and grill, but minors can eat there) which has been there since 1935.

What was the question again?

Jobs didn't "rise to the top".

He started there. Co-founder, along with Wozniack.

And he was far more the cutthroat, ruthless businessman and executive than you might imagine.

Woz was the tech. Jobs was the vision, the drive and the take-no-prisoners cut slash and burn, en route to the prize.

I do believe there are a few books about him out there?

Bill Melugin of Fox11 News in LA is reporting that his sources in the governor's office tell him Gavin Newsom will be sending a memo to police chiefs across the state informing them all state parks and beaches will be closed as of May 1st.

The memo comes after Newsom raged against Newport Beach sunbathers who flocked to the beach over the weekend as the region experienced its first heat wave of the year.

Newport Beach is in Orange County, which currently has 2,252 confirmed COVID cases and 44 deaths. The population of Orange County is about 3.1 million.

Fauci funded part of his research on coronavirus in Wuhan ... but her story is more about the aids frauds, and the faked research on other things.


She mentions the vaccines actually giving people the disease ... that was true of Gates and the polio vaccines I believe. She thinks this virus is actually something else ... that she specifies. But mostly, it all fits with the conquest of our government, and massive money collect via various scams. Mueller's coup is just a beginning of the cleanup needed ...

The Manager is letting Felix Hernandez to pitch in the 9th inning!

I don't know what he said to the Manager and all the players that made them all ignore him, but it must have not have been that bad.

Yep, Felix is warming up now.

Why does it say 0 0 0 on the Tampa Bay scoreboard?

Will you go get me some Dipping Dots please?

Yes, now!

Abandoned her and her mom, AND even denied his paternity for YEARS.

He pursued ONLY HIS AMBITION for decades.

Wasn't until he was in his 40s that he began to open up to her, at all.

She's been quite open about his abandonment, and the course of their "relationship".

486 Rodrigo, that would be true, except that when Jobs came back, he canceled absolutely everything the guy who fired him wanted to do, regardless of whether it was a good idea or not.

For instance, Apple was working on dual-platform machines (iOS and Windows) when Jobs came roaring back. He immediately canceled it even though it was a great idea IMHO and would have helped make the iOS much more affordable.

Again, IMHO, you could come up with the all-time best idea in the history of the universe, but if it wasn't Jobs' idea, he'd call it shit and scream at you for wasting his time with it.

495 In a way this is kind of the final test of whether there's any hope for at least half, or more, of the populace, at least in select locations.

They weren't (mostly) devastated by O-care as they weren't in the individual market, and if they were hurt by it (they were) it was too gradual, or complicated, or they're too effectively dumb to understand it.

They think "sanctuary" stuff is bad and stupid, but it hasn't affected the directly, so meh, or better not to let their even dumber, or racist, "progressive" friends know what they think.

They don't actually buy "climate change" crap, or don't care, as long as they don't understand how it is costing them $ and freedom.

And like robots they think NPR is the "news" and of course like other "educated" people they have to vote for a Dem - if there's even an icky Republican to vote for (for example, not the case in much of CA any more).

But ...... if you see a governor or mayor acting irrationally, vindictively, in a way that hurts or annoys them - well that may be different.

Newsom closing state beaches disappoints me - not because he did it, but because he appears not to have picked a fight with all counties and municipalities who have beaches, too. That mud-wrassle would be epic, and Newsom would lose it badly. And a portion of the Coastal Clueless directly affected would be angry.

512 "Among the issues they've encountered, not all students have internet access or have parents available to help, causing concerns about inequity. As a result, many districts haven't required schoolwork be completed or graded."

My colleagues just about had a heart attack when I said I graded some work. We aren't supposed to be doing anything after March 11, so I re-dated the work that came after. Some kids had been playing catch-up.

The "equity" thing is a farce. We've got staff delivering packets to kids in the district - wearing masks and gloves - for all classes. We have some parents who ask for the work, but don't send it back; others who email or call often. It's not the technology that causes inequality; it's the parents and the staff who give up.

A really frustrated mom told me this year: "I'm sorry, but I'm sick of my son being held back because his classmates are slow." That could apply to this whole mess at this point: quarantine the high-risk populace and let the rest of us live, dammit!

There were actual dual-platform machines sold in the 1990s. I wanted one of them. I still say it was a good idea. Just because Jobs didn't think the profit margin was worth it doesn't change the fact that it was a good idea, especially with regard to marketing. A lot more people could have tried the MacOS and seen if they liked it or not.

Anyway it's not worth making enemies over, but that's just my two cents. :-)

There were Mac clones, definitely, but I don't remember any dual Mac/Windows machines. The only way you could've realistically done that at the time would've been by having two separate motherboards. If there were any, they weren't common.

And yep, Jobs did kill the Mac clones off.

Judging from the current market cap of Apple, it's hard to argue that his decisions were incorrect from a business standpoint.

There are really two propositions under discussion here:

1) Steve Jobs was a raging asshole.
2) Steve Jobs was a visionary genius.

It's very possible for both of those to be true at the same time. It's probably more common than not, if you look at history. Isaac Newton was, IMO, the smartest human that ever lived, and yep, he was a raging asshole, a religious bigot, and a general whackjob to boot.

Hoping Ford is smart/savvy/humble enough to say, no worries, I'll give up my license (or agree to a suspension). But I fear he'll try to play the "don't you know who I am?!!" card.

Video will show the cops fired first.

And armed citizens outmatch all police maybe 3 to 1, 4 to 1, 5 to 1. And that is if they just try toe to toe. Instead, it will go 4GW immediately. Cops will retreat and protect their families.

This is really just the next step to what happened on that Oregon ranch a few years back.

No biggy, whack it, recreate, pull up files. Plus, new virtual machines will run across two monitors these days, which is really cool.

One of the UNIX guys, Dennis Ritchie said when asked about the etymology of fsck that "well, the second letter was something else originally."

612 In Re: previous post.
Just would like to mention, we've all seen that video where the lawyer gets up and tells the crowd to never talk to the police. He even has a cop there to agree with him.

Well in reality, if you are the victim or reporting a crime or incident, it's not in your favor to NOT talk to the police. That was the whole point of them being called.

Especially if it was a defensive use of a firearm.

That said, I think a better thing to say is "Don't talk to investigators. Especially the FBI".

They're the ones you have to look out for. In this day and age where recording what a suspect or witness says during an interview is becoming common, the FBI still uses paper forms that they FILL OUT AFTER THE INTERVIEW to record what a suspect/victim/witness said.

One has to suspect why they would maintain that system when a recording is far more accurate and more useful in court.

And the reason any intelligent person comes to is that that way they can "adjust" what was said according to their "recollection" to make the person interviewed look as if they said something else.

So I've adjusted by attitude; up to a point I'll cooperate with the police on details of an incident but refuse to further speak with investigators unless counsel is present.

Especially the FBI.

And btw this is an institutional attitude that was promoted and imitated by it's founder J. Edgar Hoover.

1Gbps is great on the local line. I can do something crazy like what I'm doing. I'm downloading it from the browser on this machine, and storing on a hard drive on my new screamer in the other room, which has a lot of hard drive space.

To do that, this machine pulls the download, the copies the stream back to the other machine. Network link is just about 10% or so. Full duplex at around 50Mbps average both ways.

665 Come on now folks, Newsom's order is glorious.

The mindless majority of CA residents will meekly comply, but many will be po'd, and we'll probably have some delicious police/citizen encounters to watch on the inter-tubes.

And in all this - as in everything else, practically, that's going on now - not a single public figure is asked the obvious questions. What is the "science" of outdoor airborne transmission? What is the "science" of airborne transmission, period? Could I have a link to the practical experiments and empirical data on this? OK, I'll even take the same for a typical influenza A or B virus. Oh - and the same for face coverings?

Actual, empirical science?

When you've done that, can you please explain why any but select portions of the population have much to fear from this bug? And specifically what is the goal of continued mitigation-like policies, now that medical crisis has clearly been averted? Why is containment relevant this far into an epidemic, when prevalence is surely widespread, and fatality risk so narrowly focused?

And one wonders - is anyone asking these questions at the task force in DC?

I don't see them in the roads, and I don't see them patrolling. Like I said before, there is a lake behind me, and everybody seems to be there on the weekend, either fishing ,or riding dirt bikes and quads. There is never less than a dozen or so vehicles parked along the road unloading dirt bikes, and some of the locals are just ripping down the roads on them to get into the woods. Its like mad max without the mad part.

691 Wow, finally listened to the video of the WI cops heroically enforcing the "stay at home" order, valiantly harassing a woman who may have had neighbor children playing with her kids (!!!! imagine!!!!).

Aside from the "Fargo" accents, which are great, wow.

Who was wondering about LEO backlash?

Listen to it. Soak in the "professionalism". The arrogance, the officiousness.

The imaginary cop (a few obviously exist) of more American character would be rolling their eyes, apologizing for the chicken-s**t action, and explaining that they had to come talk with her. She would have said, probably, don't worry, I understand, it's your job, thanks and stay safe out there.

Favorite part - the female deputy beclowns herself with her off-Broadway Soviet border guard imitation, insisting on getting the woman's name.

Uh - does your outfit use 1950-style equipment and info? How about .... looking up the address on any number of guvamint databases, and getting her name (or at least the property owner's name)? No - instead, a pouty, pathetic 25-cent imitation of an omnipotent centurion patiently tolerating the petty interference of a mere citizen, at home, who's being bothered by idiots.

697 redc, isn't going to get ugly, in the usual sense, but very ugly, and already is, in the civic sense.

As I said way above, the bumblef**k clumsiness of this move (closing beaches 12 hours before they open again) may lead to some colorful confrontations, but little more, probably.

99% of those furious about the action won't vote, or would never vote against a Dem incumbent, or don't even have a non-Dem candidate on their ballot. Astonishing yet obviously the case.

And the rest? Not even angry. Many of them self-righteously cheering (I've seen it already), in their scientific illiteracy.

705 I don't know Newsome from Newman and could not pick him out of a line up. The last time I cared about a CA governor was probably Pete Wilson. But the order is likely a reaction to people saying enough is enough. There is an old saying that that people vote with their feet. That has many meanings but one is that you can vote with your feet by doing what you want, when you want.*

This stuff is happening in more than CA I can promise you. In my neck of the woods just today I saw hundreds out and about in the parks. It was a nice day, the complacent companies don't want them back, so they went to the parks and river. I haven't seen more people fishing driving down that road in pretty much ever. I didn't know so many people still fished. I thought they would do it on a Wii or virtual reality headset.

In the end, people will decide for themselves when they have had enough. They can and should listen to politicos, scientists, etc. But you take that in and evaluate it. At some point you have to make a personal decision on how you are going to live your own life. A lot of people are voting with their feet.

* the other meaning and the one that rings most true to me is that it doesn't matter what people say, it is what they do that matters.

History has shown a lot of things made legal after the people themselves decided them to be so. Some governor is not going to decide when people can go out and about. He is going to decide when so many are doing it he can't stop it, then he will make it legal again.

Worse, I'd wager at least 50%, and maybe as high as 60-70%*, think that way.

I've been seeing the idea more and more across the internet. There's a pro-virus (still getting paid) high school teacher on this fascinating thread arguing that companies have maternity leave and sick/vacation time in place so a complete prolonged shutdown of those places shouldn't affect the businesses or the related jobs.

https://tinyurl.com/yawj8rxx

Quote:

"Someone explain to me how 6 weeks of stay-at-home work/quarantine can break a system where most companies already have policies allowing for:

1. Three months of maternity/paternity leave,
2. Two to four weeks of paid vacation, and
3. Twelve days of sick/personal leave per year?"


A f*cking TEACHER.

If anyone needs something to read to pass the night, that is an amazing, fairly intelligent, and still active comment section right now.

Tooele is a fair-sized town, with an Army depot, and after passing through there, I hit I-80 south of the big lake, with a nice view of the lake and the salt flats.

732 I don't blame the police, they are getting called out on lots of crazy stuff these days. But people are pretty much sick of this. I keep seeing armed guards at super markets and wonder what exactly they are guarding. No one is going to draw down over toilet paper I hope.

If anything, I have seen workers lose it and not so much customers. Sure tensions are heightened but armed guards at the local shop and save is not a good sign. I think people realize others can only be pushed so far. Sure we will respect others and distance if that is required. But don't tell me you know your shit when you don't.

The French highly suspect nicotine protects against the virus in some way. You can check online or check tobacco stocks like BTI. Either way, I bet 90 percent of this country has never heard of the idea. I wonder why that is.

My point is not that nicotine works as I have no freaking clue. But people are getting fed what others want them to be fed. And yes, people also choose to segregate their news into palatable forms.

772 Was a bad night for Chinese Lung disease, everywhere packed the numbers I'm thinking.

My little county has more deaths than all of Wisconsin now, 329 to
308, Pa added 598 in last 24 hours up from average of 50 the last 4
days. NY added 712, NJ added 766.



Posted by: Skip at April 30, 2020 04:38 AM (ZCEU2)

I wonder how much of that PA is Philly and Pittsburgh. And not what James Carville famously called "Alabama".

any death is a shame and we should go to all lengths to prevent them at any cost. Sure we can't whipe out all diseases but if we can put an end to this, then do it.

But one thing I am sure of and i am not sure of a lot these days. One thing I am sure of is people are using stats to their own devices with little knowledge of what the stats mean. For example, it matters if the deaths happened among the infirm and old in a nursing home. It matters if a state has a lot more nursing home fatalities than others. Again, and I should not have to say this, but of course a nursing home death is as bad as any. In fact, I think it is worse by a long shot. I am am just a regular guy but I can figure this stuff out. The people in nursing homes are already infirm, that is why they are there. Unlike others, they don't have the choice to just take off and leave the AO.

These people are forced to stay in place and live among others who are infirm. If some rando comes in to visit is grandma and he has the virus, they are all in trouble. A, that is one reason I don't like nursing homes and fought against people who advised it for relatives. I also realize for many if not most, it is the only choice. Well, they are not safe places for a virus. These poor people don't even have the chance to head for the hills.

I actually think it is a good idea to end visitation in a pandemic like this, it makes sense. The other guy sitting next to you did not get a choice or even a visit.

But it is foolish that people are wrongly using statistics to corral others. Some are talking about the 50,000 lost in Vietnam. That is a joke of a comparison and really serves no purpose at all. I am still waiting for someone to talk about the 50.000 dead at Gettysburg as Denzel wrongly said in Remember the Titans.

People still quote the "50,000 dead at Gettysburg", just look it up online. Actually it was more like 10,000. There were 50,000 casualties, but that is another thing, they don't mean the same thing. And if you think I am full of it, here is a quote. But before I bash Denzel too much, I heard this number growing up all the time.

The cities have a problem that someone needs to call them out on. They need to explain why urban living and mass transit is not a good foil for contagious disease.
I remember hearing the 50,000 dead at Gettysbug while growing up. It was often compared to Vietnam though the numbers to not add up exactly. The deaths in Vietnam were higher. The argument was Vietnam lasted ten years while Gettysburg lasted three days.

No doubt you were better off an infantryman in Vietnam and certainly a main in uniform than you were during the Civil War. Vietnam had horrific casualties, but they were not at the Civil War level. The absolute minimum reported Civil War deaths was 600,000. And I will admit this, in the Civil War they were stalwarts about reporting deaths. If you got shot in battle and died two days later, that was not considered to be a battlefield death. It would be different today.

One thing I am sure many if not most miss about the Civil War are the hundreds of thousands of wounded who suffered their entire lives without the modern medicine we have today.

I hear ya man. All we can do is patiently explain it. But the line in Remember the Titans is pretty shocking to me. This was a modern movie. Ten historians could never offset Denzel.

A well respected mainstream historian I follow today once said Abraham Lincoln Vampire Slayer had more impact than all Civil War documentaries combined. I hope he was being facetious but he has repeated it more than once. It is like news these days. People choose what they want to believe and that becomes their reality.

what are they supposed to do? They already supported Clinton three times. There were two elections and impeachment. Hell the country supported him three times.

how would they stop Biden? I guess you could simply switch him out at the virtual convention.

So many fear Michelle but still I do not buy it. Does she want to be president? She is already revered. Why would she want to mess with that? I know a bunch of people fear her and i get it. But I don't buy for a second she wants to run for the president of the United States. If you do that, you could lose. And has she ever said she wanted to do such a job?

933 America can't spend an eternity with its head in the sand and a thumb up it's butt. We could plan for a 2 week or 2 month lockdown if it was necessary, but we can't live in a continuous moving shutdown of 2 more weeks. Time to call bullshit on those pushing fear to grow their power at the expense of the citizens. Even the capitulaters are starting to view this as unsustainable. Only the fearful, the idle wealthy, and the union protected government workers are still on board with the plan. Even those groups are shrinking as those with kids at home getting older but not smarter are getting a reality slap in the face soon.

937 the nurse worship is petty amazing but not knew. Most Western Nations realized that they were greying and and a shortage of nurses decades ago. It is funny really. I know quite a few with bachelors and Masters degrees that have a hard time getting a job. But I remember decades ago the Brits would bring in Phillipino nurses by the plain load.

I know guys that wanted to see the wold who had bachelors degrees. But if you are a qualified nurse, you could probably go anywhere. Sure there are variations, but that is simply about getting more schooling.

If someone told his daughter to become a nurse and seek out the best opportunities versus staying in some hick town, he would likely be giving her good advice. There are places where nurses make a tone and in addition they would likely have the chance to travel and live in places some with traditional degrees would not.

965 That article regarding the Michigan Doctor "illegally" treating patients with Vitamin C is interesting.

Mok filed almost 100 claims to insurance companies and to Medicare for the infusion therapy services, the government said, which is not covered by Medicare and would not be an approved claim.

Based on the facts in the complaint, Mok was charged with committing health care fraud and conspiracy to commit health care fraud. He's due in court Tuesday afternoon to be arraigned on the charges.


So he is charged with committing "health care fraud" based on filing a claim for Vitamin C infusion therapy, when the government has not deemed that an approved treatment.

This is interesting, because we all know that, based on the CDC guidelines for declaring someone dead of COVID-19 (testing isn't even necessary to confirm), health care fraud is being committed all over the country to jack up the COVID-19 death counts.

I guess some "health care fraud" is okay, so long as it is sanctioned by the CDC.

One takeaway for me was the set of figures on hospital beds. The "experts" had predicted a five- or six-times over capacity of something like 265,000, and they were wrong by about 250,000.

Got a regular checkup today scheduled six months ago with my cardiologist, who rents space inside the hospital. Was told to allow ten minutes for the new med security at the door.

some people think that the only real Bourbon is made in Bourbon County Kentucky. The irony is basically no bourbon is made in Bourbon County, Ky.

Now I like to be write when I spew facts even with a few typos as a comenter took pains to mention. There are a couple of craft distilleries in Bourbon County today but you could say the same thing about most major counties in the South.

Bourbon does not have to be from a particular country and it does not have to be from Kentucky. Hell, there are bourbons from Virginia that go back a long time. And Virginia can rightly claim that they were Kentucky. Virginia gave up land to create KY. So no way KY could claim some type of provenance over VA.

Anyway, the law is Bourbon is US spirit, made from 51 percent corn, aged in freshly charred oak barrels. So yes, you can get Bourbon from Hawaii by law. No doubt most of it is distilled in KY, and they deserve our respect. There is a difference between what is most common, and what is the law.

The problem is not that we don't have Dads in the neighborhood, it is that the Dads have no incentive to live with just one wife and raise "their" kids!

We need an explicit emphasis on how to be and pick a good spouse.

Just like I would change welfare to intact families only.

Posted by: NaCly Dog at April 30, 2020 08:06 AM

I am probably alone in this, but I have always tended to be of the same mind as Dr. Laura. Where she suggests at least a year of dating, where you can see your potential spouse in good and bad times and see how they respond to stress and life changes.

Too many people decide to marry for superficial reasons and do not think long term of marriage. (i.e. is this someone I can share good and bad times with, who can complement my life and be both my friend and lover, who can be a good mother/father to potential children, etc.)

Then there are those who look at marriage as nothing more than another type of dating. If it doesn't work out, eh, no big deal, just get a divorce.

And your statement "how to be a good spouse" is lost on a lot of people too. So many divorces happen where one spouse or the other blames the other person, but rarely does anyone look at themselves and realize that part of the reason the marriage failed is because they did not put everything they could into it.

And welfare... ugh... could write for days on that mess.

I think it's great that the Dems spent a couple of years and a billion dollars to get a candidate that sucks so bad they want to dump him. If I had voted for some other Democrat and they lost to Biden,I'd be furious.

Maryland's 7th Congressional District had a chance this week to replace the late Elijah Cummings with the Republican who shone a light on the trash and rat problem in the inner city.

They elected Kwaizee Enfuma (sp) in a landslide instead.

Yes. Along with teaching the black community that they're victims being held down by the man. And that being good in school is not "acting white" and being a traitor to your race. So much headway could be made for AAs if those things are corrected. But they were put there intentionally and we all know why.

All of my life, I've wondered how that could've happened. How did the people let it happen? How did they not know what was right under their noses? How could they let that happen??

Now, I know. I'm not equating what we're experiencing with the Holocaust. But I am drawing equivalences to how brainwashed, conditioned and blind a human mind can be.

"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more - we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward."

Colt McCoy probably banked about $50 M as BU QB

Posted by: rhennigantx dont californicate my TEXAS at April 30, 2020 08:09 AM (JFO2v)

going to a major Texas school helps. Some guys will sign you just because as the third string. Colt McCoy is an example but he is only one. There was also Bucky Richardson and others.

Romo was an outlier as no one wanted him on the team. They kept trying to get rid of him by drafting more Qb's. You only saw the guy in the pre season. Sure some don't like him but the guy has probably made more than any undrafted free agent qb in history. And yes I am including he money from CBS.

Posted by: Quint at April 30, 2020 08:20 AM (hHxp2)

1112 I realize Romo did not go to a Texas school. I have to say that as someone will call me out as i seem to be in play today. But he did go to a Texas NFL team. I can think of other Texas college guys that got picked up as third stringers to please the locals.
