Best time ever,
Ike is sorry about the passing of your friend and Ike is not taking a cavalier attitude but it is a virus and
We will adjust or maybe all die. Ike is concerned about the elderly, many with other medical conditions
That make it nearly impossible to beat corona, if one has emphysema, a tough recovery.
At this point Ike masks up, stays out of crowds, but Ike lives his life, he doesn't hide in the basement, he meets with friends and neighbors but, they better be taking precautions.
IKE's been carrying a jug of hand SANITIZER in his cars for years, wash your hands till they're raw but,
U better use a squirt of SANITIZER as soon as u get in your car and as soon as u walk in your door.
Ike started this because He fears the flu, Ike always gets the vaccine but, up to 30 thousand people can die from the flu annually depending on the strain. Ike thinks many germs r found on gas pumps, observe next time u fill up
Peeps wiping their nose on their hand, scratching their ass and then pumping.
Ike actually takes a double squirt for this event, before and after.
Sorry to ramble but Ike truly sorry for the loss of your loved ones and please make sure u follow the rules
Ike doesn't know if they work but they can't hurt.

It's a virus there is no cure for, nor much to treat it. It is a 100-year virus that has engulfed the entire world in less than a year, and killed and sickened millions. It is particularly vicious and fast-moving, attacking the whole body in bizarre ways and killing in a few days. We are still trying to figure out what the longterm consequences of it will be and who is most vulnerable.

And you are wrong -- not all of us will survive; many will die, maybe even some of us, God forbid. My BF is now dead of it, one of the biggest Tiger fans around. When it touches you personally, maybe you won't be so cavalier. It also killed my 24 year old cousin.

This is not a 100-year virus. It is about 10% or so of the 1918 virus in most respects. This is just a bump in the road on the epidemic scale.

Question: If people say bowl games don't really matter, doesn't the same apply to the Big Ten and PAC12 playing Spring football after the other conferences have already had the CFP?

^^^^^
ABSOLUTELY

Most definitely. Nobody going to give two craps about some intra mural spring football when NFL playoffs are going on.

Report from yesterday: Covid is at least 70% as bad as the 1918 flu, just in New York alone

What Covid be like if we had 1918 healthcare today and 1918 communication and lifestyles.

Ike stands KORRECTED on hurricanes because even if u have hurricane damage the insurance companies can argue water damage is flood damage.
There is quite a bit of water involved in a hurricane and much flooding.
Do yourself a favor and purchase flood insurance, Ike was told he didn't need it Ike lives high above the inter coastal
Waterway and Ike bought the flood insurance, believe Ike,u sleep better when covered.
