WASHINGTON – Tragedy struck yesterday as the world’s reserve currency was rushed to the ICU. Outside the hospital, well-wishers mostly dressed in top hats and monocles, placed flowers and held candles while a choir of orphans sang You’re the Inspiration by Chicago. After 70 years as the world’s strongest currency, The US dollar has recently fallen on hard times, including multiple stints in rehab to break its addiction to stimulus and inflation. According to celebrity addiction expert Dr Drew, the downfall began when Dollar separated from its long-time partner, Gold Standard, in 1971. The divorce was tumultuous, and Dollar admitted that it began self-medicating to cope. Dollar blamed every US president since Nixon for enabling its addiction. Dollar promised its fans that upon its recovery, it will re-unite for a tour with the rest of the American Greatness band, just as soon as drummer Manufacturing Base kicks his Oxycontin habit. President Trump tweeted that American Greatness was always his favorite band and that he has all their albums.

Oh my. And yet, I clicked through, looked at every one of the images and busted out laughing at a few a of them.
Same here. Some of those are hilarious. And yet, I think of how much time it must’ve taken to make all of those, and I shudder.
The time it took to sculpt/arrange all of those. Wow, but some people have time on their hands.

‘Cats’ visual effects artist says rumored ‘butthole cut’ exists

A criticism if I may, the premise of “US Dollar” being part of an old rock and roll group should have been at least hinted at in the headline, the way it reads it takes too long to draw out that part of the ‘joke’ which is really the hook. The first half just reads as a straight news story about the Dollar tanking albeit with some anthropomorphism, by the time the reader groks that Dollar is a member of a rock group the article is winding down. Perhaps a more Rolling Stone-ish headline “American Greatness fans stunned by long time front man U.S. Dollars’ hospitalization”, just a suggestion not a sermon.
You’ve got be a blast at parties.

It is a strange world. The EU collapses and everyone there reverts to sovereign currency and the Euro is no challenger to the dollar. It will end up “stronger” than ever, at least in a relative sense. I’m not sure that even if the EU holds together the Euro is a challenger, though obviously that was the intent. Russia, China? Don’t make me laugh. India? Not even Japan and South Korea. As bad as we fuck up, we just take everyone down with us.
The dollar is the best looking turd in the punchbowl.
It’s an interesting conundrum. How much longer can Rome last if everyone else’s currency is also in the shitter? I don’t know the answer. We keep the economy crushed much longer, though, and we’ll probably find out the answer to that question the hard way.
It should be stronger, there will be a lot more of them. Tag team dollars!

Anecdotes ARE data, though.
It’s not entirely objectionable, but there are some “tells” in there about relying upon “credentialed” sources. The subtext to me sounds like, “don’t believe people who tell you this isn’t bad and have ‘anecdotes’ to support it.” I suspect “data” to the author means “stuff with which I happen to agree.”
Yup, just enough tells to set off the “proggie virtual signalling” alarm.

As we work our way through this, noting the more restrained way Japan is trying to balance between keeping people healthy and not trashing the economy, sometimes it feel like Japan is watching pensively while holding America’s beer.
It is interesting. Their hands are tied by law as to how far they can go. Also, they can’t even pretend to be a self sufficient country, so I think the government is really hesitant to go much further.
“Their hands are tied by law as to how far they can go”
The same is true in the US but that doesn’t seem to stop the American Top Men from enacting any rule that pops into their power-hungry minds.
The same isn’t true if the US is willing to violate the constitution. We’re getting into the “parchment barrier” argument here. Bullets > paper.
Most of the PTB in the US seem to be more than willing to simply ignore the constitution and tell people what they have to do regardless. I found it interesting to hear Japanese politicians go to lengths to explain that they are requesting people follow the guidelines they have published. They have been very clear that the law constrains what they can make people do so they have to appeal to the people to do the right thing.
In the US they just tell people what they have to do without even mentioning that they don’t have any authority to order such things.
If you haven’t looked at Ozy’s post that come up while we were asleep, take a look. He fleshes this out in excruciating detail. Excruciating for people who thought they had constitutional protections.
Thanks for the reminder. I saw that and did not go back to read it. Nails it.

Since when can a state blatantly violate simple constitutional bill of rights guarantees.
When that right hasn’t been “incorporated”. Dole isn’t a perfect fit, but it’s an example where fedgov used the states’ broader powers to get around a constitutional protection of rights.
IOW, they’ll always find a way.

Dude, I knew you was totally Mandalore!
They’re floating the idea of doing random mandatory testing for CV19 in our county to identify hot spots. I can’t imagine that’s legal but when did they ever care about that. Also we have a little over 200 cases and 9 deaths. Not like we’re being overrun.
I got some paperwork after a recent med visit. One item listed was HIV: negative.
I was surprised that the doc could just order that test without asking.
Standard for the last 20 years, I’m clean…
Given that you may be immune-compromised I see where that could be legit. On the other hand, maybe the doc thinks (hopes) you are an whore.
Either way, Call Saul!

So much this. Never seen it not asked prior to bloodwork.
One of the words on the street here, getting close to a month ago, was that the top men in Denver did not believe there were no cases on the western slope. Polis sent the national guard to set up testing in Telluride. My understanding is they found one active case. As I have linked several times, a couple who reside there who happen to own I biotech company had their people work up a test and they are testing the entire county for markers (or whatever the hell they are called) to find out how many people had it and moved on with life.
Please, please, please. We need an antibody test pronto so we can see that many people were infected with this and did not even know it. I’m sure it was here since the beginning of January.

Buddy, when you’re dead, you’re a dead peckerhead.
I saw him in Duluth as a Father’s day present from my wife.
What an awesome gift. I saw him once in GF 15-ish years ago. What an amazing, fun show. He really connected with his audience.
He was a constant around the campfire as I was growing up
We took our HS kids to see him in Ventura, CA in 1998. It was there first live concert. They were appalled when their parents joined the crowd dancing in the aisle for the first song, “Spanish Pipedream”.
I last saw him live in 2012 in an old theater in Honolulu.
Fair winds and following seas to you John.
This will be interesting to find out when Cov2 started spreading and how many people have already been infected and recovered. I hope a bunch of other private actors do these studies because I have no confidence in a govt backed one.

Thanks straff. That is the first of that kind of test I have heard about and I really hope we can get a widespread testing of people for Covid antibodies. I had all the symptoms of it in early January and I know a few others here as well that did. I imagine once people realize it’s been here for a while and the death rate is far lower than imagined we can start to return to normal life.
The government and it’s lackey’s in media will jump on every insignificant mistake in the study if it were to prove/strongly suggest that the mortality rate is much, much lower than the govt’s number. Shocking that government reacts to incentives, isn’t it?
I’m highly suspicious (obviously) of the government and this whole bullshit panic is only pushing me farther into that. At a certain point I don’t think the media will be able to bury this any longer, but I still hold onto some of my natural optimism. The death rate of those infected with this is a fraction of the current numbers, I would bet 100 to 1 on it.
At a certain point I don’t think the media will be able to bury this any longer, but I still hold onto some of my natural optimism.
That “but” should be an “and”. 😉
Heh, heh. Indeed.
Same difference in symbolic logic! ^
Syomboligy.
I’ve mentioned it before – I hope there will soon be a way to test and prove a person has already had and recovered from the Chicom virus. In December and early January I had 3 business trips (6 flights) between Tokyo and Shanghai (1 trip) and Tokyo and Hokkaido (2 trips) on which most of the people around me were Chinese mainlanders (determined from their accents). Add to that a week working in Shanghai, traveling on the subways and through airports. During and after that I had a lingering upper respiratory infection which seemed a bit different from what I usually get from drying my sinuses out on the flight. It’s possible I did not pass this to my family because I was away most of the time – might have been recovering by the time I got home. Either way, I’d love to be able to prove that I have been infected and recovered so I can at least try to get back to work ASAP.
From what I’ve seen, the big tell is having lower respiratory infection and a dry cough with fever. Then again, there could be multiple strains of this bug out there. And I can’t imagine that Japan was somehow spared from earlier infection from China. Too close and too much travel back and forth not too mention your New Mejicano butt spreading it all over Kanto. *Grins*
7 have been identified so far.
Thanks for last night’s excellent article.
Thank you for the kind words!
The question then becomes: what sort of immunity do those other strains provide for Cov19 and could you use serum for convalescent treatment. *My use of terms correctly not guaranteed.
Here’s the thing. SARS 2 is the psycho-killer cousin of the common cold. Think about it – the best we’ve been able to do for the cold in the past 100 years is still chicken soup and Tylenol.
The Sars-CoV2 receptor-binding domain structure, which allows a virus to latch on to and enter a cell, is similar to Sars-CoV, despite amino acid variation at some key residues.
Over my skis here. I’m assuming that is referring to the viral “spikes” and the chemical ability to latch on the cell’s receptors. I believe chloroquine disrupts that process and would hope that other strains would be able to produces antibodies that would counter that virus with antibodies.
I think it has been here since Nov or Dec. Hence why the “models” are fucked. And seriously you didn’t click the links I posted? I have been on this band wagon with you! I work with people who got knocked on their ass in Dec with some respiratory ailment in Dec that did not test positive for “flu”. We work in the entry point to Telluride. If you know ski towns these days they are reserved for the wealthy. The wealthy travel. Most travel makes it way through CA. And I guarantee this thing got here through CA. An Australian chic is linked to nine cases in Aspen. I got ten bucks she picked it up in LAX or SFO.
I’m a bit surprised that Australia isn’t seeing much bigger numbers of infected people – walking around Sydney last year I was hearing Mandarin about as frequently as English. So many Chinese have bought property there the market is going off the rails in terms of values.
“An Australian chic is linked to nine cases in Aspen”
It wouldn’t surprise me if she picked it up at an airport at home.
Hemispheres
Jet aircraft + airports
It wouldn’t surprise me if she picked it up at an airport at home.
Could be. Could have been someone on the plane. These things move as they move, I haven’t been to Australia for more than a few years now. (4?) I don’t remember an overwhelming number of Chinese but my entries were Brisbane or the much preferred Cairns.
Yeah, it was my first time in Sydney. Second on Brisbane/Cairns. Both are lovely places.
If you are visiting there – particularly in any of the smaller towns – and want to see how far your money will go in a pub do what my buddy did. He bought a beer and when the eventual question came from one of the locals “How do you find Australia, mate?” he looked then in the eye and stated, with proper gravitas “It’s God’s country”. He couldn’t pay for a beer the rest of the evening and went to his hotel totally drunk on his ass.
I think it’s possible I may have had it. I had a brief but intense illness in January. I was sick for four or five days. It hit me very suddenly – I was fine in the afternoon, and then right around dinner I felt like I had been hit by a truck. Went to bed immediately after dinner and didn’t get out of bed for days. Had a fever that reached as high as 102, extreme fatigue, and rather painful soreness all over my body.
I never saw a doctor because I’m one of those “only if I think I’m dying” types, so I don’t know what it was. Thought maybe it was flu. However, though I haven’t had the flu in a very long time, I don’t recall having flu without nausea before. On the other hand, I didn’t have a cough either, which seems to be a hallmark of WuFlu. I don’t know that I did have it, but it wouldn’t shock me to discover that I did.
I posted it this morning:

I always assumed that had a lot to do with the design being spec’ed to work with what passes for a runway in much of what was the communist blok.

I’m gutted that John Prine is dead.
I’m not sure that I can work tomorrow.
Good night.
Good night, Nick.
I have the same helmet Hulk Hogan is wearing.
You’re the Stuntman, eh?
I just ordered your bonus Swag from CafePress. Unfortunately it may not be delivered until June:
Aww, man–I thought it was just stuff you had. No need to order nuthin’.
But, seein as you have, thank you!
Meh, it’s a fraction of what you’ve paid me. And also, I want a report on the quality as I think it’s an item no one has ordered yet. (and a clue: tooth not included)
I can handle a

Three young girls lusting after an old man, and it takes all three to run a twitter account? Disgusting on many levels.
I don’t disagree. In fact, I even address the (non-Twit) issue in my next Night Shift.
/oh…”hint, hint”
Nothing wrong with young girls lusting after an old man, they just always seem to not follow through. Where is the scandal!!
As long as it’s the ‘correct’ old man, knowwhatimean?
Yeah……dammit. ::sigh::
Love it! A while back a Minnesoda friend posted Midwest Driving School.
Hehe.

Over the weekend I ran my Weber for about 8 hours – first smoking an end roast, then a batch of Tandori, then some ribs, etc. For lunch today I had some of the Carne Asada which I grilled – Oh. My. Zod! Wonderful! I always use a Jaccard tenderizer for skirt steak since that cut tends to be tough and chewy. The Jaccard makes it really tender and allows the marinade to get in deeper.
I wanted to recommend this device (the Jaccard) to y’all but I just looked in-line and it doesn’t seem like they offer the handy manual version any more. I suppose they would be dangerous around the mentally challenged and it must have gone the way of McDonald’s hot coffee. Sad to say. If you can find one at a flea market or a Salvation Army shop pick one up.

I can’t help it if you have a weak stomach. Just like people who complain about spicy food.
Why do you hate

I was saving this for Eric Clapton, but, what the hell.
I would posit “come and take it” is itself passive.
That is, quite simply, brilliant.

My 80yr old aunt called me today going on about she had to call 911 last night. I drove her through the bank drive-through and ran into the store for her yesterday. I’m thinking, “Oh fuck! I gave her CORONA!”; after several minutes she gets around to the point. She had a rash breakout. She blames the KFC she made me buy her (even though she’s never before had an allergic reaction to KFC). Doc prescribed some stuff, my mom picked it up. Thanks for the heart attack.
Bought into the panic erh?
No, but the way she went on about having to call 911 and how horrible it was that she couldn’t sleep…I was expecting something more than ”My back itched and I couldn’t reach it.”
Yes you did…
A KFC rash sounds positively South Park-ian. Was it that severe, or, is 911 just how she deals, medically?
She does like to complain, but I didn’t think she’d take a rash so far as to call 911.
Well, it’s probably one of their better calls, when all is accounted for.
1 case in the county. OMG!
Oh, I wasn’t even thinking of batusi. I’m sure even a rather pedestrian heart attack call is more stressful that a rash.
Heart attacks can’t go to the hospital! Gotta save beds for CORONA!

Lol…Arsenio Hall…
Never heard of it.
Having jogged my memory – it was forgettable schlock.
Remembering old TV series has me asking “Why would you ever name your show just ‘Legend‘???”
You know how many things turn up when searching for that?
I’m impressed that you remembered it.
I’m pretty sure my family might have been the only one to watch the original run all the way through.
I’m impressed that anyone remembers Arsenio Hall.

“Makes me think it’s a little communist of them honestly. I get the priority there because they want to be safe for everyone, but tennis I see no problem with it,” Shane said.
So far, it appears our county parks are still open (all events/activities cancelled, of course,) with the obligatory warnings about social distancing.
Our township also has two parks. I should drive by and see if they’re accessible. Might have to stage a civil disobedience picnic.

Is it possible that pushback might actually work? Is that too much to hope for?
Two prepackaged drinks? Lame.
That’s plenty for a pre-teen…
Pushback working would be the governer resigning in disgrace and the state reopening. Not merely a loosening of the noose.
Yeah, we have a long way to go yet. ***SIGH!!!***

Hey, GT! Shoe problem solved. Just needed to dip deeper into the stock. Wifey likes to purchase two pairs at a time when they’re on sale and I found the ones that worked for me last summer. When you do 10 to 15 miles per night they are important. Thanks for your recommendations!
