Flushing. Only NYC’s third largest Chinese community. Credit card machines ‘not working’ here. Look hard any you might spot the rare gweilo. Many of these people are illegals. Many smuggled in by the Snakeheads for a hefty fee. Which is one reason these communities are especially concerned about the virus. They know illegals are arriving every day. All it takes is one. |

And it will go up tomorrow when some 'expert' says it is not that bad. And will go down the day after when a different expert says it may get worse. The fact is many corporations will take a temporary hit in earnings this quarter and maybe next quarter. So these companies should be worth slightly less than they would be if there was no coronavirus stuff. As usual, the stock market overreacts to just about everything. Overall, I'm staying the course. I did sell some Apple and Tesla recently at near there peaks. Rare for me to guess correctly.... |

I hear Carnival Cruise will be a bargain soon. In fact, you might even be able to buy the whole ship. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

A whole ship, you say? Already found a kicker. Let's do this...  Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

I don't think I got one this season Generally its a matter of timing for me I happen to be at the Doctor's for one reason or another and they have flu shots I get one I never look for flu shots. Its a matter of luck and convenience anyway I work from home so the odds of me catching something is reduced Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |
