Good work James!!!!

Now you are going to get chastised for depriving a few of the opportunity to ridicule my intelligence.

As far as the people selling their stock goes, it would be hard to prove they had inside knowledge of something that's been in the news since December. Many folks were warning about this situation months ago. It was public knowledge.

Atlanta Falcon owner and founder of Home Depot Arthur Blank is donating $5.4MM to the COVID-19 effort...time for the likes of Buffet, Gates, Bezos, Walls etc. to cough (NPI) something up...!

It makes me wonder how someone comes up with that number. Why not just $5MM?

Must be a darn good reason but my little pea brain cannot grasp it .

Anyone wanna take bets that in a week the total world count will go from 250k to say 500K? Or US count from 14K to say 25K? Hard to predict. Will it rain here next friday... hard to predict.

Maybe a particular account he closed out had 5.4Meg? Just a guess.

On the lighter side...saw this posted on a bb

Coronavirus Pandemic, day 16.

If anyone is still out there, I'm alive but struggling. Food is running low. Down to only 459 days worth. My hands are super sanitized and my butt is super clean. Down to 1599 rounds of ammo (dropped 1 round down the heat vent while doing daily inventory). Power still on, but for how long? Missing human interaction but I have my dogs.. for now.. (I'm soaking their food in BBQ sauce in an attempt to marinate them from the inside in case I have to eat them) . I fear dark days ahead. News is all bad. Neighbors have attempted to leap from windows to their death, (or near death... most have single story homes so they are badly bruised). Blew through most Netflix series so may have to rewatch some again..Basic Survival is a definite challenge. I vow to persevere to the end, I am a survivor! Please, if there is life out there, communicate with me to help preserve my sanity..

Quick question. Why are all of our infection projections in the 50-150+ million US citizens, when China seems to hold steady at ~86K cases with a population over 3 times ours?

Panic sells news.
