  1. Bonus points for using "eschewed" in this forum....outstanding!
  2. Like this one? I had one of these as a kid....thought it was cool.
  3. Unfortunately any QB looks like a Pro prospect against Michigan.
  4. Got ST Max free after telling them "This is my annual call, sometimes I get it free, sometimes I get a discount. What can you do for me this year?" Her reply was "I hope you get it free." After about 10 mins or less, she gave it to me free! She also added that "they should always give loyal customers like you ST for free"...I didn't even want Max, I'm just satisfied with regular old ST. My other discounts roll off in October, she told me to call back the day they roll off and "we'll see what we can do". I've got to say, I've always, always been treated well by DTV.
  5. It's not exactly a new tactic from this company..."Gilead made headlines in 2013 when its first HCV drug, sofosbuvir (brand name Sovaldi), went on the market at a cost of $1,000 per pill, or $84,000 for a full 12-week course of treatment (see here and here). In 2014, Gilead introduced its second HCV drug, Harvoni — which combines sofosbuvir with ledipasvir — at a price of $1,125 per pill, or $94,500 for a full course of treatment. According to ATF, the actual cost of making a 12-week course of sofosbuvir is estimated at $100 to $1,400." https://www.citizen.org/news/outrage-of-the-month-a-price-gouging-tax-dodging-drug-company/
  6. so I should lure them in and then strangle them?
  7. Man, I've been saying that to my wife for awhile...she's against it, though she's pretty pissed about those critters, so.....
  8. We have friggin chipmunks who love to take a few bites of the almost ripe tomatoes then leave it...same with zucchinis, birds and deer got the blueberries and blackberries...I hate nature!! ? Awesome! We've had some mortgage lifters and cherry ripen, some with chipmunk damage...roma's and german johnsons are not ripe yet
  9. Kto się czubi, ten się lubi skurwiel
  10. indeed. BTW thanks for the shout out....zimny drań.
  11. Yep....I posted this the other thread as well, here in CT we followed guidelines and look what has happened....testing has increased and we are finding less cases and have falling hospitalizations and deaths. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/conn-covid-19-testing-increases-hospitalizations-positive-test-rate-decline/ar-BB16ao6K?ocid=hplocalnews
  12. For those that assume that increased testing results in increased cases, looks like that is not true in CT...looks like we are doing the right things here. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/conn-covid-19-testing-increases-hospitalizations-positive-test-rate-decline/ar-BB16ao6K?ocid=hplocalnews
  13. They may report them equally but the bias is still there...here is an interesting site that reveals political leaning of news sources, it also has a link to Allsides which rates the bias of about 600 media outlets. https://guides.lib.umich.edu/c.php?g=637508&p=4462444 Edit: leaving this here because of very useful link to media bias ratings from NG, but in general, if we want to discuss media bias, elsewhere please. I started this thread upon request of several folks to have a covid-19 thread that was just links and info. Discussion -> discussion thread please!] And also links from The Dean:

  15. How do you go about sorting out the good science from the junk and draw any dependable recommendations or conclusions?
