Ahem --- There are times when a scraper is necessary. Does this device come with one?

For me, there is a shower nearby if it gets that bad.

I'm really surprised that no one is going all Roman Empire.

Yeah shower is two steps from crapper at home and two and a half steps from the cabin crapper. And don't ask me how I know.

Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner made a televised plea to Houston’s criminal population to just chill and take a break from committing crimes until after the COVID-19 crisis had passed.

I was actually being beaten and sodomized when the mayor's announcement came on. When he heard it, my attacker stopped, took a step back, and smiled at me. We just looked at each other and said "chill" then went our separate ways. Later he sent me a friend request on Facebook.

Houston just reelected that guy last fall. Had a pretty good challenger. I feel sorry for the people who were smart enough to vote for the challenger. I hope the others get what they asked for.

Today I issued an Executive Order preventing the@release of dangerous criminals from prisons & jails.

We want to prevent the spread of #COVID19 among prison staff & inmates.

But, releasing dangerous criminals in the streets is not the solution.

I guess that is some good news.

Rachel Maddow said that it was “nonsense” that a naval hospital ship would “be operational in New York Harbor by next week.”

Today, the naval hospital ship USNS Comfort docked in New York City.

When did they get rid of Hon. Annus Parker? (she should have been a South Park character)

At least the TX governor has some sense

The courts have ordered the release of a number of prisoners here and and ordered arrests to be very limited. The courts also don’t want to tell us what crimes they had committed. The sheriffs and police chiefs are pissed off as hell about it because they know crime will increase.

According to a message I just got from my county supervisor, one of the ways that I can volunteer during this crisis is to:

Chalk your Driveway or Sidewalk
Write positive, uplifting messages in chalk on your driveway or sidewalk.

A few suggestions-
DON'T BE A *expletive deleted*ing MORON, STAY HOME
LOOTERS WILL BE SHOT
COMMUNISM KILLS
EPSTEIN DIDN'T KILL HIMSELF
GO AWAY!

I have no doubt that my chalked message would be

On this morning's walk I saw some female had chalked her phone number and a request to be called on the sidewalk and in a driveway someone had asked in large block letters whether we could shower now or whether we had to just keep washing our hands.

K Frame · « **Reply #1764 on:** March 31, 2020, 09:06:16 AM »

"whether we could shower now or whether we had to just keep washing our hands."

For real?

Jesus Christ, with people that stupid how has the human race survived self extinction?

Shower vs hand washing sounds like a troll/sarcastic to me.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was a poor attempt at a joke.

I think it's a great attempt at a poor joke. (sometimes those are the best ones)

Sometimes the best ones are where some people can't tell it's a joke.

Yeah, I wish I were that positive. But after hearing some of the reports about the *expletive deleted*it that people are doing... not so much.

I have seen that said before. I have also heard others say the opposite. Everyone is repeating all sorts of stuff.

Well these guys interviewed are the ones sequencing the genome from samples all over the country and world.

Not statistics but actual data.

Woman, 86, dies after knocked to ground at NYC hospital for violating coronavirus social distancing

This story was going around recently about an elderly lady getting slugged by another patient. I saw it here, but can't remember where. It seems the elderly lady died. A cause of death was not stated. Maybe that was in the original story, but I missed it.
