Well we were planning on detecting somewhere on Saturday, but my lower back is on fire from digging ditches, and filling in other ditches yesterday, and the day before. It hurts to even sit. We'll see.

You know, it's times like these when it sucks to be a recovering alcoholic.

Doubter, there is more "talk" of rum than there is rum. shhh... you didn't hear it from me!

I hope your wife complained to hotel management they should have comp'd your room.

President just declared a national emergency.
Supposedly gives access to more money, medical care and space to put sick people (rent out your barns now!), can use Tele-health tools. Getting more test kits 5 million in a minth. Will have drive thru swabbing. Theres a good one liner there.

They don't want everyone taking the test...I volunteer to not take the test!

 

[Msbeepbeep]

Now we can go to Google and start the process to maybe be swabbed and where to go a drive thru to get it done.

It gets better...we will be able to go to a Walmart, CVS, Walgreens etc for drive thru, swabbing.

Roche diagnostics is approved for producing the C19 tests.

Msbeepbeep,

Or we can just stick to swabbing the deck on our ship of motley crewmates.....

[Msbeepbeep]

All medical personal will be working together for testing people, if you can't get to a Dr. they will come to you.
Also we will be buying up cheap oil and storing it. Filling up all our oil storage facilities. ( red flag on that one!)

I volunteer to swan the deck, after all I have slid off it many a dark & rummy night!

It's almost like psychological warfare or something. It would not surprise me if this has been around long enough to show positive in a fairly consistent percentage of the population. And if we have no ammunity to it, why are there cases that do not produce symptoms. . . Idk, . . .

 

[Msbeepbeep]

CMS is now involved. They just restricted visits to all nursing homes.

Said anyone can be a carrier of the virus don't want to give it to our "older" population.

Heads up to our older population...RUN!!!

 

[Msbeepbeep]

said Next 8 weeks are critical, doctors say this will flow thru. Perez said interesting wording.

 

[Idahodutch]

Msbeepbeep, thank you for the updates, I think

 

[Idahodutch]

I hope I'm wrong, and these are not efforts of corral building, incognito.

As with the BLACK DEATH of the Middle Ages and the 1917 Spanish Flu, it is Nature's way of culling the herd.

WD,

Thanks for the chuckles most people don't want to know what goes into baloney or hot dogs either....lol....

At a high end restaurant salmon ravioli would probably set you back $25. or so per serving and odds are the restaurant would use the heads as their base not the prime filet that they charge $35. or more for.

Here's the picture of the salmon flakes I got for my efforts and the other picture is the makings of a seafood chowder using the fumet/stock from the salmon and we'll use some chopped up shrimp from the freezer.

Tomorrow I'll be adding some sauteed french shallots, ricotta cheese and other seasonings for the stuffing.

Bill, I am sure you and the Mrs. are great cooks, but I don't think I am that desperate yet. No offense, but if it ain't deep fried walleye chunks, I don't eat it. I am funny that way. OK well, I have been know to eat deep fried cod and striper. I can't even lie and say, "It looks good, Bill." It looks scary to me. Maybe Simon will share his Mickey D's?

Idahodutch,

I wouldn't worry to much about our leaders trying to control us or using some other hidden agenda. For the most part they have a hard time chewing gum and walking at the same time.....
