PS Apparently the Daily Mail was correct on this issue (namely, humans who contracted leprosy from armadillos). However, I am not endorsing nor defending the DM. I came across the DM article online and thought how weird people would touch or eat armadillo in light of the leprosy risk.
I don't get the appeal of the older Adam Sandler movies.
Agree with you enthusiastically with the exception of Don't Mess With The Zohan. One of the funniest movies ever. If you haven't seen it, do. Especially if you're M.O.T..
And his new effort, Uncut Gems, I liked very much.
Yes! Zohan was one of the first ones that I thought was hilarious. One of the few movies I don't mind re-watching. Murder Mystery was pretty decent also.

Why people post in the "What is being said in the Rose Garden? What's happening in Washington?" thread. On the rare occasions I read it, it makes me want to pound my head against a brick wall.
Why national and international authorities are giving reassuring (or dry) advice on ‘social distancing’ complete with precise measurements and charts, yet surround themselves with like-minded experts in a packed room of journalists. we’ve all watched SF, we’ve had fancy communications tech for a while now - can someone pls set the example and show the world how to use it en-masse in real life??!
(IOW, show you’re really listening to people’s concerns: ‘it can’t really be that serious if they’re lined up and packed in like that’)

I've been saying this all over the place. Virtual meeting tech, Skype etc. is old hat at this point. Everyone has read the stories about how infection rates exploded at conference, family gatherings etc. WTF is wrong with these people?
Haha! They can’t spell bouillion (stock) but used the spelling for gold bullion!!
I never knew there were different spellings for these 2 things! My bouillion looks like little blocks of gold. How have I gotten thru life not knowing this? Thanks to you, Joanne!
I don't get how in 2020, science can be so handily ignored. Even rejected.
I'd love to hear Dr. Fauci's internal monologues. I admire him for his patience, calmness and ability to stand firm for what he knows to be scientific reality and not get sh!t-canned by Trump (yet). When this is over, I hope he gets some prize or acknowledgement.

W already gave him the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Why the House Vote on the Stimulus Pkg can't be held by teleconference. Or at least allow each member to state their vote electronically, then add them all up.
It seems like lunacy to have these already exhausted representatives rushing in from all over the country to make a vote in person. Are they all truly less tech-knowledgeable than me -- still today? They're all doing virtual interviews, the news reporters are already making all their reports from their homes.
Why can't the House enter their votes electronically? Seems like this could be solved with a Zoom meeting somehow. (smh)
I don't understand peoples' obsession with toilet paper? How many times a day do they take a sh!t? And how much paper do they use each time? Used judiciously, a roll should last weeks.
