Can’t ask for papers, gotta ask for papers, open borders, close borders...worried NYers can’t find sanctuary in Rhode Island.... Liberals...

Bills SB when they win is not first? I have no interest in building a draft board, but I think it’s great that some guys enjoy the process as much as they clearly do. That said, it would be very cool to be in the draft room. It has it all, excitement, disappointment, and dare I say the art of the deal.

Well God bless you my friend. We had the same issues with young kids hitting beaches and the like here in the US, and it certainly can be a problem. I was only in Sydney for about 9 days, my daughter had an internship and was there a few months. We all loved it, and the people were very nice.

Hey Syd--quick question and please forvgive my ignorance. Seems to me when I was in Australia a couple years ago, it was a very popular place for tourists from China and other Asian countries. I can certainly check the internet, but how have you all been holding up in Sydney? Amazing place, hope you and yours are all well!

careful sir. define crisis, and define it relative to the constitution, define it relative to 'experts', define it relative to the rights of the states v. the federal govt, and just to chill it all down a bit more, assume the party you support is not in power at Executive level, nor in the House or Senate. for example...climate change. or, if you please on the other side of the aisle, Trump anything.

? I had this typed and ready to go and thought, naaaaah.

God and Fred Jackson work in mysterious ways.

Delightful, this Clinton gal. I have to point out that the article also refers to “US GQ correspondent Julie Ioffe” making other negative comments. Between the coronavirus crisis and hard-hitting exposes on 7” tapers on slim fit Versace for men trousers, this chick is the Hillary Clinton of 18-30 year old urban men’s fashion.

The point is simple. The leader of the free world is delivering the messaging points during a time of great crisis, and the job of a free and independent press is to transmit the message directly. That they would choose to withhold, instead reporting what they think you need to know, is telling. F 'em. Who needs them?

They have chosen darkness instead of light during one of the most intense news cycles in history. That's newsworthy in and of itself. F 'em.

"Sorry"????..that's the damn Crane Technique of message boards! You rat fink bot bast#rd!!! ?

I didn't question your credibility, I just didn't know that you were self-quarantining against common sense and rational thought.

I missed the second note where @manncmentioned his feelings about Trump and Russia. I don't understand why someone would feel as he does and still jump the fence to vote for him now given that perspective, but he clearly stated his position and you have to respect that. Sometimes on some issues, theres no common ground to be found.

Still, NYC represents a big piece of the economic puzzle, jah feel?

You said Cuomo is taking a wait and see approach. I wonder if, after taking a wait and see approach to a highly transmittable virus in/around one of the largest cities in the world, in retrospect he wishes he had been much more aggressive in his approach. Given that the state established a quarantine zone in a suburb a few miles away, and given that travel back and forth to/from New Rochelle and Westchester/Rockland/Putnam counties and NYC is a way of life for many, he regrets not being much more proactive in establishing a zone around NYC. Finally, I wonder if his decision was impacted by Mayor DiBlasio, his views, and the relative power over the voting block and city that he represents. Something as simple as "Andy, these are your people, many could tell you every streetside deli from Brooklyn to Bensonhurat but couldn't point to Buffalo on a map. You shut this city down and the "$#!! hits the fan and political fallout is massive".

I wonder what Cuomo saw when he waited on NYC, while establishing a containment zone in New Rochelle just a few miles away? I'm uncertain if it was a revenue play, if DiBlasio has more juice locally, or a miscalculation in allowing the residents to keep doing their thing.

Well, it appears we’d agree on nothing at all, but if you’re at the table come November, welcome. Better late than never. Thanks for the reply!

Next time, just run with: "Good job Idaho, what you're doing is honorable." Signed, TBF Less words, more direct and no subtle commie bs. "See red"??? C'mon man!

Interesting and thanks for sharing. Great to hear from the other side. Taking it one step further, in your previous anti-Trump life, did you have concerns about corruption in the government and it's officials, insider deals and if so, how did/would you have adjudicated the vote come November? This is no set up, nor am I assuming one way or the other, just you mentioned "conservative tendencies" and wanted to get your thoughts.

In a crazy but perhaps understandable coincidence, not one Neon Tetra, Beta or Common Molly has tested positive for Covid-19. Maybe that guy from Nevada was on to something, God rest his so.

First, I long for the day when not every song has to be Whitney Houstonized with long, lilting octave busting “look at my vocal range” personalization. It can be so beautiful, but it’s so overdone at this point I’m waiting for the next cycle of sound where a 7 word lyric doesn’t take 3 mins and 7 seconds to be sung. Second, one of my favorite hypocrisies in the world is a celebrity singing such a beautiful song about a world with no possessions and no countries, while glomming onto more sh$t, more houses with more square footage than they could ever possibly use. Just to dumb it up a bit more, they stare and sing into what likely is the latest iPhone, a product made on the backs of low-wage workers in foreign countries (with borders btw) for one of the great success stories of the modern capitalist era, with a product/distribution chain that must have an extraordinarily high carbon footprint. I imagine a world where people with 15 minutes of fame don’t stare creepily into a phone, and sing a song written by a multi-kaziilionaire about living in a commune, all tidy and nice in matching white Mao shirts, black pants and those freaky looking ballet slippers. And, in the spirit of the song, please imagine that in the above sentence, “fame” reads like this: “Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayy....ah faaaaAAAAAAYYYY.....FAAAAYYY—EEEEEEEEE......OOHH..oh...oh..Ayy......ummmmmmmmmm.......Faay.ay...um.”.

Thanks, great find. Nothing like an AP reporter sermonizing for a “quick question” searching for the right words to elicit a quotable quote that could potentially be taken out of context later, and accusing the man of lying or being duped by the President of the US. I’m looking forward to seeing this reported in the US media moving forward. The last 5 minutes of the clip reveal extensive praise for the leadership of President Trump, Dr. Fauci, CDC and on down the line. It would be reassuring to the American people to hea4 that...no?

Only in America.

I'm wondering if, as the writer from Axios was graduating journalism school, he/she ever contemplated tweeting out a correction including the following: "...it did not reflect the full nature of the self-medication...with an additive...used to clean mahafahking fish tanks!".* Priceless. And btw, I was a journalism major back at SUNY in the early 80s and job one, job one, when covering a death was ALWAYS to double check how much Fish Tank Cleaner the decedent ingested. Maybe it's because every 3rd or 4th suspicious death in WNY involved Fish Tank Cleaner, also known by the street names as "Fin", "Clear Coat" and one particularly potent brand called "Glass Wax" distributed by The Old Dominon Crew outta North Fort Erie. Bad hombres. *emphasis added

He took you to church sir, because when you asked him what he personally was doing....he answered. The appropriate response to that crazy Northwestern Boise Boy Idahoan would be: "That's awesome and the world would be a better place if everyone tried to pitch in like that. (You could also ask him why when I read his posts, it sounds in my head like he would look like Tim Graham. It's odd.)
