Am I the only one that thinks that if the Corona virus wipes out all humans, it would be cool to know that we were the last generation of humans on earth? I kind of like that idea.
No, your not the only one. Plus, rock and roll.

You will know the virus has reached it's zenith, when liberals start buying guns.

Just nuke Arizona.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

If nukes get started, I hope the first one lands here.

It would actually be a relief.

Maybe if it was just me and Lori Grenier left.

There is a bet at 5dimes on whether the opening ceremony of the Olympics will go off on time:

Olympic Games Opening Ceremony to start on July 24th 2020 on or before 11:59pm Tokyo Time?

Yes -145
No +105

I am tempted to bet the "yes," but what do I know about epidemiology?

Not looking good for the Olympics being on time
The one sport that has a fanatical following in Japan, Baseball.
Baseball in Japan is delaying opening day. That's huge in Japan.
As for baseball in this country. Teams are banning media from the clubhouse due to the virus.
