I work at a College in Cincinnati Ohio so I'm around thousands of people just at work. I know a handful of people who have actually had Covid and are fine. I know it's out there but I don't think it's as bad as everyone says it is. My wife's 82 year old grandma with every issue that supposed to kill you has had it.

It's barely even bad at all. I know 3 people in their 20s/30s that got it and recovered fine and 2 older people that have recovered nicely. Also, my father in law tested positive and his worst symptom was a sore throat and slight fever one day. Neither his wife nor son that live with him tested positive, so that tells me it's not as contagious as they like to make it out to be either.

Main stream sthi show beating a dead horse.

They think there is no reason to give the working peions an actual news show. To bad the MSSS doesn't work like it supposed to anymore.

I call it a tempest in a tea pot. Please don't get me started on the rest. The reason I've joined the thread today is to ask, is it appropriate for a member to send naked pictures of his wife uninvited to another member? It's no one here, it's another forum I'm on.

I would say probably not. Plus the wife may kill the husband if she finds out. Women are strange like that!

I don't know, nudes are nice usually, but that just seems wrong to me. ;)

Don’t know about sharing wife nudes but I deleted the base gasket on my weed eater the other day. Next will be widening intake & exhaust ports & raising the exhaust roof.

Shoot, I went before! I stop in a couple times a week but the place is pretty dead lately. Dave posting his progress is the biggest thing.
