Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. That's the phrase, right?

Bernie 2016: I'm running as a democrat
DNC: We're actively screwing you in favor of Hillary

Bernie 2020: I'm running as a democrat
DNC: How about no?

So is this the stage of shame on Bernie for not running as an Independent... which...is...what...he...holds...office...as...a...Senator...in...Vermont...as...

Always thought it was ridiculous he switched for the election. It's bit him twice.

As great as the Shooter series is, I have a lot of problems with the ending. While satisfying to the general story and even giving it the series the same ending as the movie, there is so much wrong and unnecessary.

I will say, I binged the show as easily as I binge Jack Ryan. I couldn't get to the next episode fast enough.

Lastly, I didn't read the books. Maybe it's faithful to the books and thus earns a pass.

Make one month a year a work from home month? We clearly can.

Could put it in the winter so people aren't slip sliding. Could put it in the Spring or Fall so people aren't taking summer vacation during this. Could have it attached to the beginning or end of Summer to finish or start the school year.

My only point is that as bad as things seem, there are ways to flip it to some kind of positive both short and long term.

There is a lot of bad in this pandemic. A lot. Perhaps you mostly put that on how seriously people take it.

However, there is some good. In Omaha, I only see the focus we've had on local businesses on Small Business Saturday, the day after Black Friday.

The lows the stock market has hit are making for great but in prices.

Looking at this https://twitter.com/pattrn/status/1242556796482375680?s=19 , there is less smog out there.

People are finding ways to work from home.

Why not take at least that last one and build on it?

Does anyone know if Trump is going to talk about the pandemic again soon? Market largely up since Monday is longest streak since this hit. I'm curious if he is going to open his mouth and tank it any time soon.

Only the friggin Mets can have one of their rotation pitchers go down with Tommy Johns during a shortened year.

Bright side is that it's a short year.

World,

You are going to disappoint me if publicly traded alochol company stocks are not going up by the end of this.

I had been saying that he should groom AOC and nurture a message together over the next four years.

She'd be 35 by the inauguration, not the election. She could do another term as Congresswoman and finish before the election so she wasn't splitting her time.

But no. Why? Because Joe Rogan bad.

The snake continues to eat itself because you either fall in line or are cast aside. No in between. No agreeing on most things. No coming to a compromise WITH MEMBERS OF YOUR OWN PARTY.

If Sanders just relied on his message and supporters, he wouldn't need to worry about delegate count and losing to Biden right now.

He'd be running as an Independent, the affiliation/party he is part of as Senator.

He could show everyone that you don't need to be Republican or Democrat to make an impact politically.

Instead he's here. Facing another losing battle. All because he didn't trust people to align with a message over a party.

Hunters is a great show until you realize Lonnie is friggin Ted and now I want to punch him in his indecisive face every time I see him.

Has anyone out there purchased a Storm Glass? Like storm-glass.net ?

Anyone else have a problem where some kind of leg muscle soreness basically dictates when they have to lay in bed? Might only become a problem at night. Maybe you have to lay on your stomach before being comfortable to rollover?

Omaha

Nebraska just declared a state of emergency. We're at 12 known cases. CWS and Berkshire Shareholders weekend both cancelled, as did upcoming concerts from Blake Shelton and others.

Ban events that will host crowds, but you can ban from crowd from showing up. THIS IS HOW IT SPREADS.

Beer virus is why everyone should have a video game system

My company's office product provider cautioned that warehouses in Chicago and Atlanta have a queue of orders for supplies.

But what happens when stuff that typically comes from China goes out of stock at the hubs? Seems like an opening for CONUS side industry. A boom for (at least the) American economy.

You wonder if this also leads to troop withdrawal from some countries...then again quarantined in a warzone is basically free money (in a they can't work but still earn kind of way).

Whatever your feelings are of the beer virus, it is creating opportunities.

Stocks are crashing, but that means great deals. Disney is down $60 since the D+ launch. WWE is down $30 since their quarterly meeting. Lots of good stocks are at particularly good prices. I bought some after the first week, lost plenty still, but prices got even better.

Aside from that, a lot of jobs will see an adjustment to the point of being able to telecommute which will be huge down the line.

Also...

Beer virus is making it an introvert's world.

Baseball can be played outdoors

Baseball is played during the Summer, where colds typically go to die

DON'T YOU DARE TAKE AWAY MY BASEBALL

Bet the Google search numbers for "pandemic" just skyrocketed.

Holds political office as an Independent

Changes parties to run for President

Party of choice, Democrats, conspire against him and lose election and chairwoman resigns

4 yrs later, repeat steps 1 & 2. I'm not saying the exact step 3 is happening, buuuuut....
