She could be anything. There's no perspective and she's really just dress and hair. The only hint is that she seems to narrow from the shoulders to the waist, which makes her more mature.

I admit I do get a kick out of the "would chat up" discussions that occur, not just here, but all around the internets.
But especially when discussing a painting. Of a "girl" whose face we can't see, whose age we don't know. Painted about a hundred years ago.
I mean, seriously. Your chances of dating her are pretty close to nil, guys.

Yup. I have a friend who swears she's not a Democrat, but talks like one... she's kind of my bellweather. Absolutely livid the schools haven't announced what they're doing yet, because her child's care HAS to be arranged, one way or another. She's got some family she can count on, but the kid's dad is a total douchebag, and she's got to make a living.
I'm waiting. Waiting for her to FINALLY say it... the Democrats are destroying her ability to live anything close to a normal life, to plan for those BASIC things that are so important to people.
On that day, I shall rejoice.

I learned yesterday that a big majority of locals do not want schools to reopen and favor the virtual plan. A friend who owns a big estate sale warehouse told me that he had to clear out his entire upstairs as someone offered him big money to rent it out. Why? A school for the local Indian immigrant population. A significant portion of the parents seem to have made other plans for full day programming.

HIGHLY recommend 'That Dark and Bloody River' by Allen Eckert (spelling?). It tells the story of the settling of the Ohio River region and conflicts between Natives and settlers. Very captivating, sometimes quite violent (of course). Doesn't take sides or proselytize. Great book, easy read.

Patrick O'Brian (Aubrey/Maturin), C.S. Forester (Hornblower), Dudley Pope (Ramage), Alexander Kent (Bolitho) all come to mind.
There's a relatively new series, whose author and series title escape me, told from the viewpoint of an enlisted man (rather than an officer, as is the common case). It sounds interesting, but I haven't actually read any of those yet.

Why judge Sullivan took the unusual step of hiring an attorney to answer
Sidney Powell's writ of Mandamus. Writs are legal documents that have
to be filed and answered under oath. Sullivan, for sure, didn't want to
go under oath because his phony "I'm worried about the justice
department being corrupt" story would have been a blatant lie. However,
by hiring an attorney, Sullivan could now tell the attorney his fairy
tale, and the attorney could then file the answer under oath. Sullivan
doesn't want to go under oath because he is afraid of his fairy tale
collapsing if he has to defend it himself, and his actual goal of
covering Obama's bare ass, might become apparent.

I was fuck this give me my money. A manager came and finally got me the cash. But It took about 20 mins. I dont fully blame the bank here.

Art Thread trips, falls into Book Thread.
The most interesting history book I recently read was Lucky 666, the story of some misfits who rebuilt a scrapped B-17 in the Pacific, added multiple gun mounts, and became the forward reconnaissance team to photograph US invasion sites during the island hopping campaign. Their final mission is officially the longest aerial dogfight in history, and earned two medals of honor.

Then we all got a cough for a while. Should be interesting. If his bridge group wasn't 80% Chinese immigrants who often go back, I would not have pushed for this.

Posted earlier for the VA peeps, but I think most orders have to have similar language. This is extracted from the official edict from Emperor Infanticidal Maniac
VA Executive Order 63 (2020)
Per Gov Coonman Blackface
Blah blah...
D. Exceptions
The requirement to wear a face covering does not apply to following:
blah, blah
6. Persons with health conditions that prohibit wearing a face covering. Nothing in this
Order shall require the use of a face covering by any person for whom doing so would be
contrary to his or her health or safety because of a medical condition.
Any person who declines to wear a face covering because of a medical condition shall
not be required to produce or carry medical documentation verifying the stated condition nor
shall the person be required to identify the precise underlying medical condition.

Everybody in the DT had a mask except yours truly, though a guy was going in with his bare face hanging out as I left.

That one has some of the best jungle fighting stories ever - one that really stands out in my memory is how one of the 10 man recon teams got away when they accidentally bumped into a division sized NVA force. They were on a narrow jungle trail, couldn't do more than single file, with jungle to thick to move through on either side. All ten carried submachine guns, and their escape plan was that all of them would line up along the trail. First guy would empty his clip into the oncoming soldiers, then turn and take off running down the trail behind them. As soon as he was out of the way, 2nd guy would empty his clip and take off. And then the 3rd, and then the 4th. The attackers would give up on running straight into the that long enough for them to get away.

I had *something* odd in early Dec. '19. It began as an ache in my left cheek, then moved to my nose and head; sneezing, fever, coughing, dozing off in the middle of TV programs. After it improved a bit, I went to the urgent care place. They diagnosed it as bacterial sinusitis and prescribed some antibiotics. Within a few days the symptoms were gone.
Now, they said bacterial. But what if the lessening of the symptoms was just because the infection had run its course, and the improvement had nothing to do with the antibiotic? Is it possible I had the Hong Kong Flooey?

I actually do that. My hearing is none too good anyway, and I guess I rely more upon lip reading that I thought I did. So I'm at the Pick and Pull auto wreckers, and the staff all masked (sheesh!), and I have to keep asking the counter girls to "speak up, I can't hear you!"

How about "Excuse me, do I know you?" and "You really should mind your own business." Don't even acknowledge what they say.
I heard yesterday (from someone's Facebook) that a Karen approached another woman in a store and scolded her, saying "You really should be wearing a mask!".
The non-Karen replied, "Oh, I didn't realize we were sharing our thoughts with strangers, but since we are, I think purple really is not your color and you could stand to lose about 35 pounds."

***********************
Same.
Started with my sister in law (a nurse) getting a very bad "upper respiratory infection" (but tested flu negative) in early December that turned into pneumonia quickly. By Christmas she could not walk across a room without getting out of breath. She had to get oxygen treatments, etc.
Right after Christmas, my brother got a very bad fever and cough (also tested flu negative). Fever lasted 5 days & cough lingered. His kidney enzyme levels were all messed up. Doctor could not explain it.
By New Year's day I had a cough that was so sharp and hurt so bad it felt like a knife was going into my chest. I've had bronchitis before -- this cough was 100x worse. I was so exhausted there was 2 days I literally could not get out of bed I was so weak. I also tested flu negative. Doctor told me there was a strange upper respiratory infection with a cough that presented like the flu but was not the flu. He theorized that it was a new strain of flu.
NONE OF OUR CHILDREN (all under
GOT SICK. We all commented at the time that usually it is them (from school, etc. being the little petri dishes of disease that they are) who get us sick, but this time they were fine.
I'm 100% convinced we all 3 had it -- my sister in law contracted it from the hospital, which is why she got it the worse, my brother from living in the same house with her (who got it the 2nd worse) and me, just coming in contact with them with holiday visits, the least worse.

In the '90's and early '00's I wasted a lot of time and money at the local "Gentleman's Club" and there were a lot of Russian girls working there. I got to know some of them and one thing that struck me was that if it was a particularly slow night, one might complain to me that she only made $ 1000.--half of which she had to share with the House. She was accustomed to pulling in $2000.
I was like, six months ago you came here from a country where your father made in a month what you are complaining about making for ONE night.
