    Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

    Let me preface what I'm about to say: It's been widely reported that Mexico is a hotbed for Corona. Why are we locking down our cities and states and not the border with Mexico? Odd, no?

      Yeah, it's kinda like in an airplane when the cabin pressure drops. They say to put your own mask on first before attempting to help others. You can't help others if you are incapacitated.

        You know what they also say? Woman and children first? Are you willing to give your vaccine to women and children of poorer countries?

          Me personally? Yes, I can wait as long as needed. Give my vaccine to whomever needs it more.

            Because I'm in the Christmas spirit, I'm gonna let that stand, although I could keep going. Have a Merry Christmas.

                I made a $200.00 charitable, tax deductible donation to my family this year to World Vision in lieu of stuff we do not need, The moneys goes to Africa,Mothers, children and COVID-19 PPE.

                The Gov't of Canada triples the amount to $600.00 .

                  Dr. Fauci is 80 today. Hear the Bidens sing 'Happy Birthday' to him

                  Dr. Anthony Fauci got a special treat as he left work Wednesday. Members of the Bethesda-Chevy Chase Rescue Squad were waiting outside to serenade the good doctor ahead of his 80th birthday on Dec. 24.

                    I'd need to see proof of that. Moreover, that isn't the question. Strawman.

                        With 2020 be a year of suffering for so many people, I wanted to send Xmas gifts this year that would help people in need.

                        None of us need more stuff around our homes.

                        Mom and Baby Care

                        With Canadian government grants, your gift multiplies 3X in value to provide expectant or new moms with things like prenatal care, vitamins, delivery kits, workshops and more. In addition, health systems will be strengthened to prevent the spread of COVID-19 with things like hygiene kits and handwashing stations.

                          We're talking about the vaccine and you're talking giving $200 that went to African mothers.

                            A simple acknowledgment of someone's charitable donation would have been a normal reaction. 😋😋
