  1. He's doing that Dune movie. Him, that cast, the movie should be killer.
  2. If you're going to have a drink this weekend, make it this bad boy.
  3. So how did we spike to 71 from mid 20s? Either an outlier or not enough people are being tested I would think.
  4. Wouldn't the whole country need to be flattening the curve and seeing a reduced number of cases before we could start re-opening things. Intra-provincial travel will increase risk as things become more readily available. Then you have inter-provincial travel as people from other provinces (namely Alberta) are here and will continue to come here meanwhile their province is still experiencing a lock down because things aren't where they need to be at yet over there. So your risk is increased there also. It's like gun control in the States - either you all do it to be effective or none of you do it because one state trying to limit gun crime won't have much success if the neighboring state is the wild west.
  5. Opening restaurants with social distancing like https://www.facebook.com/fabio.caggese/videos/10220380469814749/
  6. So these new numbers include the chicken shack? Someone mentioned yesterday those cases were included in yesterday's numbers.
  7. And that's saying something considering her husband is somewhat of a lunatic to want to have pucks fired at him at 100k/hr.
  8. I'm all for fighting the virus but there is a glaring oversight by the scientific community regarding all of this social distancing.
  9. I'm still waiting. The Corona news in the States lately has been "better".. cases dropping, deaths dropping. But I think these idiots lifting restrictions so soon are going to get bit real hard. And the market will reflect that in the coming weeks. It appears Buffet has been sitting on the sidelines with cash the past few weeks ultimately for the same reason - another big drop is to come and we're not out of the woods
  10. Why the hell would they bring kids back to school for.. a month? Less than that considering the days will be alternating or the hours will be halved. A completely unnecessary risk for no real benefit at this point.
  11. Wow. I'd hate to be the doctors in his staff. Maybe it will be an opportunity to not be some dictatorial $&!# hole.
  12. They love to pretend to be soldiers but few of them actually are. When $&!# hits the fan, they won't be playing hero.
  13. People appear to be more friendly when I go for my walks. Almost everyone is like, hey, or hello. Probably 95/100 times. Where before it was about 7/10 at best.
  14. They've always existed in some capacity but poor economic conditions breed fascists
  15. I want to pump more money into my account but I really have no idea what to expect. The news regarding the virus is getting 'better', but unemployment numbers keep growing. I'd hate to pump 10k in and the dow $&!#s the bed 6,000 points 2 weeks later.
  16. University I'm working at said they don't expect the departments to return for at least four months. I found that hard to believe but he seemed quite certain.
  17. Who the hell gets a rat for a dog? All it does is bark. Get a real dog.

      I also find the small dogs are the most annoying when it comes to barking at every living organism that passes by them.

      My old, crusty neighbor has TWO of them. As soon as he brings them out of his townhouse they just bark....non-stop....at each other. They live together and still just bark at each other when they leave the house. All the way up the street and back I can hear them barking.

      People who own little dogs also think it's cute to let there little dog run up to your big dog, bark and nip at him.  Just once I would like to accidentally let my big dog off his leash.

  18. From home. Consider myself fortunate and grateful considering I went from one job to another and had the dilemma of choosing between two jobs meanwhile some people would do just about anything if it was paid.
  19. Some religious people are stupid. Like, really, really stupid. Humanity would likely have colonized space by now if it wasn't for religion.
  20. Interesting that on the news last night they were talking about how times like these, and war, always introduce new government taxes or policies that are meant to be temporary but end up becoming permanent. Such as income tax. That wasn't even a thing until WW1 and was meant to fuel the war effort. Of course once the government saw how much they were siphoning from the people for exercising their own blood, sweat, and toil, they decided to keep it in place. So if your super liberal cousin at the virtual Easter dinner tries to argue income tax is just, drop that historical doozy on him - because it appears society functioned just fine without it. The news hinted at we could expect the possibility of 'mandatory testing' going forward, data mining, data collection which means an even closer following of where people are moving about, also with the possibility of new taxes because none of this is free. Which I laughed at the latter because look how broke people are in this country if they can't go a month without facing bankruptcy or eviction - and in theory the government could propose new taxes in an effort to stem something like this from ever happening again in the capacity it has.
  21. During this period especially, please be considerate of others and dispose your trash properly, folks.
  22. The hottest sequel next to R. Kelly's Ignition remix.
