  1. Low??? I just bought gas at Tops today. $2.29 with a .20/gal discount with points on my shopping card.
  2. AFAIK they are all state stores.
  3. Because Tibs is an asshat and thats the only way I can yell on the internet.
  4. All I've got to say is: Tibs, GO F Yourself. I'm doing all I can to make sure that my elderly mom is OK. Don't need idiots like you to get me infected when I go out to shop for my mother.She caught pneumonia at the beginning of 2019 because of a bug I gave her and I thank god she pulled through and is still around.
  5. I wouldn't be too concerned if I didn't have a 93 ½ year old mother. She recovered from a bout of pneumonia a year ago. I am taking every precaution when I go shopping.
  6. Went to get bread and Kleenex today Just normal stuff. Went to Save a Lot ( cut rate market like an Aldi) bare bread shelf. Went to a Dollar general next door for Kleene-empty. Went to Tops. Got bread although they hdidn't have much. Aldi's was closed. Endd getting Kleenex at another Dollar General near home. At least the streets were empty.
  7. I would say the lesbian onMSNBC (my mind is a blank tight now but it's not her) . I saw her yearbook picture and she actually was blond and not too bad looking then.)
  8. Magutu was behind it.
  9. Also about ~40 people dead in US. 25 were from one nursing home in Washington.
  10. Before the sex change.
  11. They have it but that picture of him with the volleyball is fake. It was taken at a Rangers game and pasted on a different background.
  12. Meghan Markle's hubby.
  13. Thanks or the smiley. At first reading I missed it and thought you were dissing me but on the second pass, ?. I studied DNA replication for my graduate work. Used bakers yeast because it was easy to grow and a lot of work was being done on it. It was the first eukaryote (nucleated organism) that had its genome sequenced. Using yeast i developed a a method to map replication origins (where DNA starts replicating- they are very defined in yeast). Bacteria have no nucleus. Then studied herpes DNA replication proteins and possible gene therapy vectors as a postdoc.
  14. This is for the laymen in this thread. The Coronavirus genome is made up of single stranded Ribonucleic acid (RNA) which in living organisms (plants and animals) is what the a gene (DNA) uses to relay info to the cellular apparatus tp produce proteins from amino acids. The coronavirus codes for the capsule proteins (what you see in the colorized electron micrographs of the virus.) It probably codes for a RNA polymerase which replicates the RNA (I'm not sure}. RNA polymerase is not as accurate in replicating RNA as DNA polymerase is in replicating DNA.thereby inducing mutations. One of these was probably what makes COVID-19 more virulent.
  15. I thought there were a few DS RNA viruses. Of course I got my PhD in Molecular Biology almost 30 years ago so my memory might be getting a little fuzzy..
  16. Is the Coronavirus a single-stranded RNA virus or double stranded? Is the DNA one segment or several?
  17. WGAF? Never watch it anyway.
  18. I worked for a few years at Sfanford. Mu opinion of the undergrad education is that it's pss poor, but the graduate education is top notch,
  19. Don't know what the hell I was trying to type, if anything ,when autocorrect put that in.
  20. Not Vanna. She turned 63 about 3 weeks ago and her yearbook photo would have been black and white. I’ll be 63 percent in about 2 weeks.
  21. No, probably was in Playboy. That guy would be wearing a man bun today. Dont need to see photos, I lived them.Had a green leisure suit when I was 13-14.
  22. From IMDB on Strange Brew- The role of Brewmeister Smith was written with Max von Sydow in mind. But Rick Moranisand Dave Thomas thought actually enlisting him would be impossible. It turns out that Freddie Fields, then-president of MGM had just produced Victory (1981), which starred von Sydow. So he sent the esteemed actor the script. Instead of hashing it out with Fields, von Sydow ran it by his son, who was a huge SCTV fan and encouraged his father to take the role.
  23. Once again HaHa Gator finds joy in the misery of others.
