I was wondering why the US was ramping up wartime powers and re- tasking the US industries. I wanted to ask people who watched this evenings presidential address… Did they switch to commercial or something towards the end?
Trump’s slipped up a couple of times and gone completely liberal in his statements at the podium. I didn’t get to see all of it.
Has anyone noticed Trump going quite liberal in his statements in his addresses too??? I don’t think he’ll stand on them but he’s getting more bold every day.
Well, I wondered when I might start seeing things like this. Comments in America about limiting driving across state lines. Now a global recession. I think it’s more that a recession at this point. I think we’ll be lucky if it’s just a recession.
We’re going to have to come up with a long term plan for this pandemic. Sitting at home for a week isn’t going to cut it. Nor is letting so many die overseas. I hope the ventilators they’re going to be making at Ford, GM and other companies start getting shipped over seas too.
Ya think, Doug ? We never might have guessed that - had you not brought it to our rapt attention …

Sorry… I like to keep people up to speed lmao!!! I’d rather try to get people to start thinking about it now. there are things that can be done to limit exposure without shuttering the world.
Have you selected the color for your hazmat suit yet??? I was thinking a light charcoal grey for myself or a grey cammo…
@Raven-Knightly…
ok… that’s post apocalyptic. I wasn’t going THERE yet…
The disposable medical items are an issue. We may have to consider moving healthcare workers into more reusable items such as hazmat suits and a half face respiration mask like painters use. The filters can be modified to kill bacteria and viruses chemically.
It sucks but we’re in it for the long haul. Cranking out face masks like mad can cause an issue if base material runs short at the manufacturing plants.
The US is sooo far behind on this it’s not funny.
Thank you for your noble effort to volunteer as savior and grace us with your advanced knowledge of all things. Your ability to enhance the masses capacity to think is amazing. I sense with your leadership all will soon be lollipops and unicorns as you bring the age of enlightenment to fruition.

I’m touched. Thank you for recognizing my superior intelligence 
Sorry, I’m still trying to get the Delorean running again. I just can’t find the flux capacitor… I really need to get more organized…
I’ll agree with the first part of your statement, “your touched” but your reply is truly good humor. Bravo!
@SmilingOgre
I tend to text, speak, walk, try to do all 3 out loud lol.
thank you btw about enjoying the humor.
It’s easier to see in text. Oh… forgot to admit… I trip a lot… damn. Just so you know, I don’t multitask well.
Please at least try to stay on topic
I was going to try to post some humor but then realized I would be thrown out of the forum, then banished from the planet… Yep. I decided against it.
It was about the pandemic… just saying. can’t be all doom and gloom.
It’s shortsighted to view things as liberal or conservative at a time like this, trump is breaking from political idealism to try to do anything that works, and that’s exactly how it should be looked at, does it help or not help? Nothing else really matters till we get this under control.
How’s everyone doing for home schooling now??
My son was demoted lmao… have to laugh!
I think our main issue is to not go stir crazy, If that is possible!
Me and She have worked together for decades and married 42+ years. Yesterday we had an abrupt case of Cabin Fever. The secret to 42+ years “connected at the hip” is same as tumbling Stock Market, we have some “Circuit Breakers” we have long agreed to. 15 Minute Time Outs work. Everyone remember to respect your BBBFs in these hardest of times. (BBBF? Bestest Bunker Buddies Forev

{{{Group hugs}}} Keep positive and remember what’s really important …your PEEPs! If you weren’t sure what’s really important? …we’re ALL about to find out at an undiscovered level.
I hope Harvey Weinstein gets well soon. Hope he’s working through his sexual tendencies riiiight where he’s at
I hope he begs for forgiveness and gets right… but that is on him…
I bet bubba likes his new girlfriend… oh… he is in iso… yeah right.
