market rulz - yes?

Germany tries to stop US from luring away firm seeking coronavirus vaccine

Germany should just call it a matter of national security and tell him to **** off. That's what he would do if the shoe was on the other foot.

Been snow birding in SoCal for the past few months, heading home tomorrow a week early. Guess we'll have to hole up for a couple of weeks when we get back but being geezers we would be laying low anyway.

Was nice, the last week has been cool and wet. Usually it is getting hot and dusty. A week ago it was 27 and sunny, today it is 15 and cloudy. Thursday it poured all day.

2020 Trump needs to revisit with 2013 Trump... there's a tweet for everything!

so in 2017 the Trump admin shutters the long-standing (multi-administration) NSC Pandemic Office (actually done by long-gone former NSA adviser John Bolton)... but Trump says, "I didn't do it - I don't take responsibility at all!" ;D

Can you imagine how troubling it could be to be one of the grown ups in the room within Donny's inner circle and have to deal with often multiple daily falsehoods, contradictions, out and out lies? Somebody somewhere might need to take some responsibility.

Well, another Monday morning and another major "clunck" in the stock markets. And if that wasn't enough now, the Easter egg hunt on the WH lawn has been cancelled. What's the world coming to? :(

Trump opens his mouth at the current briefing and the dow takes a further `500 point drop. The complete and utter ignorance (let's call it what it is, horseshit) is not helping this issue. He has not a clue what is going on.

In Bakersfield tonight, using cards as wearing gloves at the pumps. Making reservations at RV parks using cards so we we have minimum contact with park personnel. Using our Rv’s facilities for everything, cooking, showers toilet etc. Will steam through Washington with one fuel stop.

Meanwhile, listening to Trudeau today, the borders will be closed to everyone but US residents. We are supposed to self isolate for 14 days when we get back (we will, son asked us to give him a shopping list) but the guy with the Washington plates in front of me at the crossing can come in and do whatever he wants. What the **** is the logic behind that?

Economics.  Can’t ban America or our economy will take a massive hit.  Not to mention a large chunk of our food supply comes from USA.

Americans are also supposed to self isolate when coming into Canada.

Sure they are.  Where the hell do you expect most of them to do that?

You can make exceptions for long distance truckers etc. Theirs is a fairly solitary occupation and relatively low risk anyway.
