How many people and businesses will survive this craziness?

 Shutdowns don't work, but they keep calling for them. The final economic toll on this country will be tragic... 

...

To date, more than 12.4 million coronavirus cases have been identified in the US, along with more than 258,000 deaths from the virus, according to Johns Hopkins University. The number of cases represents roughly three percent of the population. 
 
 3.75% of the population has gotten it (including me).
 
The death rate from the virus is equal to 0.0718% of the population.

Let that set in.

The tradition lives on, but it's 
a little weirder this year.


Did you catch any of the parade yesterday?

Well that's very nice of him. Of course he's gonna split - WTF do they expect him to do - barricade himself in the West Wing? This guy owns at least three houses I know of that make the White House look like an out house.

The best investment advice you'll ever get - 
nice and simple.

Coral castle, a tourist attraction in Miami for the last 60+ years, has gone broke and is now out of business because of this fuckin' virus.

History will not be kind to this guy by the time the fuckin' 
whiny-ass liberals get through with his legacy.

This vendor at Wrigley (pic is from 1975) probably ain't around any more. I betcha this guy was a whole lotta fun to hang with after the game.

The company has put up so many satellites, there's 
almost no where on earth you can't get their signal.



On Saturday, Oct. 24, SpaceX crossed the finish line, achieving the 800 Starlink broadband internet satellites in orbit it needed to offer "moderate" internet coverage to large portions of Earth's surface. Just two days later, the company officially opened up Starlink to "beta" subscribers, advertising 50Mb/s to 150Mb/s broadband internet service for prices as low as $99 a month (plus a $499 hardware fee).
 
Demand for the new service in the U.S. has reportedly been brisk, and demand in Canada is about to get even brisker - because just this month, regulators approved Starlink to offer internet service in Canada as well.

That's subtle. I like subtle.

All they can do is suggest, because 
the cops won't enforce it.


Newark residents were asked to stay home for 10 days citywide, beginning the day before Thanksgiving, in an effort to stop the spread of the coronavirus in New Jersey’s largest city.
 
Though not enforced or mandated by executive order, Mayor Ras Baraka strongly encouraged the move due to skyrocketing cases of the virus in Newark.

President Trump blasted a White House correspondent during a testy exchange on Thursday in which the ‘lightweight’ reporter spoke over him after asking if he would concede the election to President-elect Joe Biden (bottom right). ‘Don’t ever talk to the president that way,’ Trump told Reuters correspondent Jeff Mason (inset) on Thursday during a question-and-answer session in the White House.
 
Earlier during the Thanksgiving holiday, the president spent time playing golf (top right) at his club in Sterling, Virginia, before going on a Twitter rant that took aim at the election results, kneeling NFL players, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and the news media, including his once-favorite cable news network Fox. 

Trump spoke to reporters in the White House’s ornate Diplomatic Reception Room after holding a teleconference with US military leaders stationed across the globe. He thanked them for their service and jokingly warned them not to eat too much turkey, then turned to the election after ending the call. In his 25 minute back-and-forth with the media, Trump didn't fully concede his loss and insisted his legal arguments would go ahead. He argued he has time until the inauguration - which is 55 days away - but admitted it's ticking fast. and told reporters: 'It's going to be a very hard thing to concede because we know there was massive fraud.

What the fuck is wrong with these people that they continuously do stupid shit like this and think it's perfectly okay somehow.
Take a look at these three jerkoffs. The guy with the pink hair ain't gonna do so good in the slam, that's for sure. I hope he can't sit down for two months.

Works out to about $ 300.00 for each employee. Well played, Jeff.

While I'm thinking about it...

I'm so old I can remember when you got nominated for a job because of your abilities and experience, not because your parents were black or red or green. These people are all jerkoffs with their fuckin' 'agendas'. I'm sick of all of 'em.

They could save this headline and just re-run the same story every year. Knuckleheads - my neighbor back in Jersey burned his friggin' garage to the ground using one of those. Too much oil + open flame = disaster.

That's what happens when you over-cook 
the turkey and forget the cranberry sauce.

  2. Out here in western Washington state there have been a lot of ads from Amazon looking for help on the tube, some even mention signing bonuses.

    That Portland statute thing? It's Portland, they will just cut them loose, no jail time & probably no charges.
