    How bad do you think the hysterics can make our lives? I just caught this. California Governor tweet: Keep your mask on between bites. Is this fake news? Whether it is or not, would you support enforcement of this?

    My guess is somebody at the top just bought stock in these masks.

    I wash my hands after taking mask off, so I guess one must wash hands after each bite. Suggestion 1, don't order ribs or hot wings. Suggestion 2, soapy finger bowl next to plate. Suggestion 3, take out.

    My father, a retired Chicago cop, used to tell us "All the money in the world won't matter if you can only lay there and move your eyeballs." One of our uncles was also a Chicago cop and he road a Harley. We were the only cousins NOT allowed to go for rides with him. I guess he had scraped up enough people on the roads in his early career.

    About fifteen years later, one of our cousin's husbands thought it was a good idea to try to run across a multi-lane highway (one of his hubcaps fell off). He was bounced between seven vehicles and survived. He got a multi-million dollar settlement but is stuck in a wheelchair and has limited mobility for the rest of his life. I'm not close to him but I always felt tempted to ask "Was it worth it?"

    That is correct. Now that the dead come up, do the math.

    330 million live in America. =100 percent of residents.
    210,000 deaths to date. = .06 percent. That is point 06. Heart attacks, over 665,000 per annum.
    How Many People Die of Cancer Each Year? In 2020, an estimated 606,520 people will die of cancer in the United States. Lung and bronchus cancer is responsible for the most deaths with 135,720 people expected to die from this disease.
    Includes causes of death: Prostate cancer
    Includes diseases: Pancreatic cancer

    COV19 a small number in contrast.

    Why are Americans falling for the con job we have like millions dying when the truth is we cracked the 200,000 mark not long ago? Sep 22 in fact is the report.

    What are you talking about?

    Some QAnon bullshit?

    There was ONE incidence of a motor cycle accident recorded incorrectly and it was corrected in a day. Was Herman Cain traffic accident? Was my best friend a motor cycle accident? Were the deaths of the parents of four of my friend traffic accidents?

    Two Hundred and ten Thousand dead from this thing and it's running through the White House and the Pentagon

    I do not blame you for not talking of the CV19 deaths. Fewer than 1 percent by a fair margin.

    Why do you talk in terms of your feelings of entitlement? He was asking how many people die before you stop feeling self entitled and think of others not yourself? Is that possible? Are you that self centered you can not acknowledge the suffering of anyone? Sad.

    Why would you think you get to decide let alone what total no. of deaths makes them relevant?

    Oh they are relevant if only I could get Lesh to address them rather than other issues. Thanks for noticing.

    Do you want to address how few deaths we have vs what we would have had if Trump had not banned Travel from China super fast?

    You have me totally wrong. I do not feel self entitled. But think of yourself ahead of thinking of me. I am able to take care of myself. CV--victims that die experience enormous suffering but aren't you glad that past 99 percent recover without the vast suffering of those who die?

    under 1 tenth of one percent die. What that means is 99 point 94 percent live. Are you unhappy so many recover? I am very pleased most recover.
