Didn’t some regulatory body (California, I think) require them to price things in “miles” because they weren’t allowed to sell electricity? Some primitive part of my brain is trying to remind me of that.

He’s looking pretty Wags on Billions.

Of course it’s gas taxes that most often pay for the repairing the roads. Kind of a Catch 22.

I got a new car at the end of February. I’ve now filled it twice.

I just want to say that that picture is some great looking wings. I like a little breading on mine (not too much) and a very light coating of sauce. The alternative way-overcooked, no breading wings drenched in sauce (which seem to be most wings) are “no bueno.”

Falwell has a bigger microphone and is probably the biggest asshole. That said there are lots of other deranged pastors/snake handlers (of both the black and white persuasions) who are squawking about “violations of their first amendment rights” and their “right to have open church services.” It’s not race they have…

I brought this up with my insurance company recently. They gave me the phone version of the cocked-head dog questioning face.

Don’t bring facts into this debate

Strong Take.

Ironically, my friend who’s an ER doctor in Colorado says that he’s been released from more than 1/2 of his usual shifts since ER visits are way down. They get a few corona patients and no one else. 

The Indian shipbreakers are going to be busy for generations.

Yes. A “snake oil salesman” who snake-oiled his way into revolutionizing two major, world industries.

Id assume that’s a cultural commentary rather than race. Japanese corporations are notoriously difficult to work for.

Our Costco now has huge stocks of all paper products except for TP. Still no TP at Costco. 

I’m still in my office and noticed that we just got 240 rolls of TP delivered. They’re not Charmin or Northern, but they’re fine. I’m sure that there are warehouses full of “office quality” TP that can’t easily be repurposed into the consumer channels.

It is in many ways. Which is not to say that it’s not important, but at least be aware enough that many people may have different “pressure points” that are still serious to them within the larger context of the epidemic.

should severe winter weather were to hit, most areas of Colorado do a very good job of clearing the roads.

D. is the winner

It’s Colorado. We don’t get too much rust.

It’s a respiratory virus. It gets into your mouth and lungs to replicate. It cares fuck-all about bare feet. Stay focused.
