CoVID-19
the amount of cyclists, hikers and day trippers from the flats up in our canyon is unsettling. >.<It should have become obvious once we saw the large number of people that were like, "Let's go to Moab! Oh - it's closed. Well - we'll go to Fruita! Closed? Let's hit Gooseberry/Virgin! Oh, wait. Closed? Well, let's head to Sedona!!"
We are our own worst enemy.
I dont think anyone said its entirely his fault.
Hes just been exceptionally bad at handling it from the start.
What you said before about how things would have been with Obama still in charge and the republicans throwing a hissy fit about it...
You might be right, what you said seems pretty plausable but we will probably never know.
However. if you have to run a country accomodating to a bunch of toddlers in order to keep them from getting upset I fear nothing is gonna save you when shit really hits the fan.
Im not a parent, but I know sometimes parents need to be strict with their kids in order to keep things from going to hell. Even if their kids get upset.
Appearently a lot of Republican voters really are a bunch of whining little kids that dont know whats good for them...
Does that list include Dakota Ridge?It should have become obvious once we saw the large number of people that were like, "Let's go to Moab! Oh - it's closed. Well - we'll go to Fruita! Closed? Let's hit Gooseberry/Virgin! Oh, wait. Closed? Well, let's head to Sedona!!"

Asking for a couple of friends.
Well at DaVita in Fremont I just passed the Covid 19 screening process to enter the facility temp is 97 with no physical signs
We may be treading deep into PAWN territory here, but parenthood is a dictatorship, dictatorships work great in these situations. Obedient democracies, like obedient children, also work reasonably well (S. Korea, Japan, Israel etc.). The West is neither obedient nor a dictatorship, and I'm not sure too many of us would be happy doing whatever our leader says, simply because he said it, so perhaps it's better this way?

Did trump just say people are dying who have never died before? What’s the source and context?
in more depressing news, Italy had nearly 500 deaths today. and NYC's confirmed cases have doubled since monday.
Dipshit that can't take responsibility, February 26: “The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.”
But ordered a lot of different elements of "medical", so we'll be ok...
I had to bail. 
But probably... to some extent. Supposed to snow a FOOT over the next 24-36 hours, though... or so I've heard.
But yeah.
Recession called. It wants it's pole position.
I kinda of wish we had waited now... could have gotten a better deal or maybe gotten Wifey her Q7.

Got word from Wifey that two of her colleagues are being tested. So... we're locking down at this point. Not looking forward to having Hannah at home for the next 2 weeks... Wifey and I are going to have some fun organizing our schedules to cover Hannah, work meetings, and Haley's school.
Our tenants daughter just flew to Cancun yesterday. (10 YO). I am kinda pissed that they went ahead with their trip (14 people), the opportunities for transmission in such a large, traveling group are enormous. And she will be in the basement 24/7 when (if?) she gets back...but I can’t tell her to go somewhere else, really.
would I be a dick if I asked her to stay with her father for a few weeks?

it is supposed to be in the 80's in the charlotte area by friday....
Given the situation, I don't think so.
Tell her to get tested or quarantine else where.
i dunno, a lot can happen in 10 days. maybe they won't be allowed back in the US.
Thankfully all the ski areas are closed.
But probably... to some extent. Supposed to snow a FOOT over the next 24-36 hours, though... or so I've heard.

Ahhh.... Leroy. Legend.
"fuck that dying from disease noise"Yeah - so now we'll have a shitload of ignorant, poorly prepared people heading out to backcountry ski with elevated avalanche danger.
We can count them all come June.Yeah - so now we'll have a shitload of ignorant, poorly prepared people heading out to backcountry ski with elevated avalanche danger.
I agree with pretty much everything you said.
Im just not sure its better that way.
I think were moving away from being a soceity in which democracy is our best option.
OK Bernie
Further DarwinYeah - so now we'll have a shitload of ignorant, poorly prepared people heading out to backcountry ski with elevated avalanche danger.
