It would scrub that boiled-on rib residue off so fast, you could have it re-installed on the toilet before anyone noticed it was missing. Embrace wet broiling.. also they invented this thing called crockpot liners. Easy breezy peezy no cleany Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When he says he will make food, it's not an offer, it's a threat. A tactic to manipulate others into making "it" (whatever it is) so he doesn't have to. When Zeke cooks, it's your punishment for not cooking in his stead. 2 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All the cops in my town were out there, in the thick of it. They were driving around doing damage/flood assessments, doing rescues and well checks all night long, dodging downed power lines and trees and flying debris. Not worrying about themselves first. Well in my town here in North Central Jersey, I heard over my scanner that "All Emergency Services Were Suspended".....we were on our own...was time to arm up as most of my neighbors had fled.

How many of these cases will experience nothing more than Cold or flu symptoms? I am telling you we are being Bullshitted . I worked in Healthcare during those and they were a lot worse, deadly and contagious. Stop feeding the lie. Follow the money. The response is worse...far worse...than the disease. Maybe “the reaction” is a better way to phrase it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coronavirus R0 factor: 2.0 - 2.5 That doesn't mean much, it depends on the effects of the infections. Right now, the majority who test positive don't even know they have it, which means, a very mild infection, if at all, yet they'll get some future immunity: ...." “Stealth” coronavirus cases are fueling the pandemic, with a staggering 86% of people infected walking around undetected, a new study says. The findings indicated that these undocumented infections with no or mild symptoms — known as “stealth” cases — were behind two-thirds of the reported patients. “The majority of these infections are mild, with few symptoms at all,” Shaman said, Mercury News reported. “People may not recognize it. Or they think they have a cold.” https://nypost.com/2020/03/17/86-of-people-with-coronavirus-are-walking-around-undetected-study-says/ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CAL. .30 M1 2,101 Posted March 18, 2020 So I have been informed of friend of friends family members have COVID-19 - listening to them talk about it you think the persons having it, have been given a death sentence. So far both of them have been tested - confirmed and sent home to recover. One 35ish with a sever cough and chest pain (asthmatic and smoker) - the other runny nose and sore through in the 40's My friend Anthony swears he has it - low grade fever - aches pains - headache and lethargy - no cough - however he is 6 days in and status quo. Still a very surreal time and so glad I have prepped to some degree over the years - UPDATED: The 35yr old was told if his condition worsens to come back - so I have just been told after inquiring more - My prayer list is getting quite long, all your sorry asses and now these two. Time to take a break from work and go for a 3 mile walk around the neighborhood...... 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

45Doll 5,845 Posted March 18, 2020 My wife had a pedicure today somewhere in Sussex County. There were several customers and a number of stories about the police stopping vehicles after 8 PM, inquiring about why the drivers were out, and sending them home if they didn't like the answer.
