Yes, given that there are more coronavirus cases in the US than in Mexico, the Mexicans are indeed considering closing the border to the US.Quote:

You know Cabby i thought what is the use of posting what i did, either you won't respond or really it had zero use to even see a response....
Say what you want believe what you want and do what you want because it is not going to change my life or yours.....
It would just be nice to see someone actually have something good to say or have just a bit of Patriotism to there home Country...
I guess that is a lot to ask for some people....
Shay...
PS. If you ever want to see my original post i saved it and i can PM it to you if you want.....
Let me retort with a heartfelt "Fuck you." And I mean that with all the love I can muster.
The current administration is not the same as "This Country", and if you don't understand the difference between patriotism and nationalism then we really don't need to continue this conversation. Being patriotic does not mean unquestioningly accepting everything the asshole in the White House does. There a difference between criticizing people and policies and criticizing the country. This is not North Korea with a Dear Leader cult, at least not outside the Republican party. There's plenty of good in this country, but it's not because of Donald does, but despite him and his efforts to destabilize society for the last four years.
So again, fuck you, and show me where I criticized the country and not the administration and/or their policies.
And if you want to know just one thing that has changed for me it's this: Thanks to the neverending efforts by the Republicans and the President* to destabilize the health insurance system/market, my monthly healthcare premium has gone up from $800 for my family in 2015 to $1,700 today. With fewer providers in the market and fewer services I am getting for my money. It's basically impossible to sign up for a PPO-type plan unless you are covered by an employer-sponsored policy. Thanks, Donald.
Accepted and disregarded, and really you don't have any Patriotism because in that Ramble you just made not once do i see i love my country, and policies need to be changedQuote:

This is not Trumps fault and you fucking know it, yes this needs to be fixed but this is still Obama's crap that has no new legislation to fix it...
Again don't put blame if the House will not even negotiate on a bill that makes sense.. And if you think Universal Health care will fix this problem you are very naive and obtuse and I mean that sincerely Cabby..
Your country is not structured properly to make a drastic change in tax structure to pay for that..... Economics you think is your strong suit i live it here!!!.
Third....
What happens if you have a good job like 180 million Americans and they get there health care paid for by there employers?? Does that have any meaning to you in any conversation or you just don't care about them??
So saying and knowing you have a beef and i know that is not the only thing you are looking for more freebies which we all know there is no such thing!!!
Yes i agree with you that the health care for the people that are not covered needs to be fixed!!, but that is not a Republican error it needs to be fixed with 2 parties willing to fix it!!!
You think Trump and the Republicans are doing a bad job that is your prerogative living in a country that gives you that privilege and also gives you the privilege to vote who is your President, and when you get that chance hopefully other people will agree with your choice....
I will say "Whining" is not going to solve anything , you have options living in a Democracy Country, and can figure out what needs to be done.....
Like get a good job with benefits, like my kids do;)
Here is a scenario for you Cabby...
It really amazes me when someone can complain about one thing and never mention that they live in one of the cheapest "TAX" states in the Country and yet they still complain...
I myself live in one of the highest tax states in my country, yet i am still here...I am fucking paying my taxes to help out other provinces in my country and i luv it to stay in Ontario, but i don't have choice no matter who is the Prime Minister here!!!!
And yet I still "Love MY Country"
The Republican Party does have the way to fix the Insurance premiums, but the house would never even look at it and give Trump another win, every bill that was sent to the senate and sitting there is left wing shit that could never pass or be paid for.. I am fucking Canadian and i seem to know that!!!
The Republicans were stupid!!! When they had the house and senate majority they should have passed that bill to help private insured people!!, and i feel ya but the Commie shit would never pass, so really you should vote for the Republicans to get the house back to have a chance to fix the problem;)..
On a positive note, even after you told me to Fuck myself:lol:.. Can regulating Insurance companies and allowing them to cross state lines to give you more options be done by the President's executive order??
And i accept your apology for using profanity to me:)...
Just stopped in to say, fuck you, Shay. :lol:
I can love my friend but find his politics mind-numbing.
Hope everyone is staying safe, healthy, happy, and home :)
Luv you too buddy, and always great to see you, how are you feeling??Quote:

Have you?
It is fun having the health care debate with Cabby, he is a really smart guy but still has troubles how Government works, and that is either side, and his math is still 1+1=11:)...
But i do understand where he is coming from, just not the solution.....
I experienced my health care here hands on and you are now that is part of your family business, i can say without a doubt neither one of us have fun at it:)
Meg:
I wish i could tell some of the stories about my stay and taking care of my wife in the Hospital...
I will tell you that i never left her side there,(4 weeks) i slept in a old reclining chair, my kids brought me clothes and basically ate pizza and sandwiches, and lots of coffee.. And being put on a floor with Dementia patients and my wife being the age of a grand child (exaggerating for effect) compared to the patients in the ward, and at night all the screaming and yelling and them wandering out of there beds and the bed alarms blaring, while the nurses where watching netflix on there phones in the station!!!, yup it was defiantly interesting..
Even the Rehab centre she was sent to for 4 weeks after, now that was even more interesting!!!
She had 3 hrs of different therapies , the rest of the time you sat there and fucked the dog!!!! It was a real motivator for the patients there i can tell you:rolleyes:, and the ratio was 8 patients to one nurse!!! After dinner bathroom time was fun for people with no care givers :O
I was fortunate that I had good insurance at the time of my surgery. If we had the insurance I have now, we'd been stuck with $40k. As it stands, my wife told me a couple days ago that we are down to the last $240 for *everything*.
My rehab was $50k for the week. Looking back, I was kinda high as fuck. Morphine, Oxys, antianxiety meds. They literally asked me what I wanted. With a surgery like that, I guess they expect you're screwed up permanently-- why not let him relax this last 40 years of his life?
After the mix of drugs I had requested landed me back in the hospital, turns out I was the middle-of-the-night menace. I snored LOUDLY from what I later found out. I decided that the IVs and oxygen mask on my face were unnecessary after I discovered I was where I didn't really want to be. I was trying to figure out how to walk(?) IDK...but I had decided I didn't want to be there. Then...I kinda came to once the narcotics loosened my bowels. A group of nurses had to bring in some sort of porta toilet because I really wasn't mobile.
For all of the reasons mentioned above-- my roommate apparently didn't like me much.
The rest of my stay, I had a spacious room *all* to myself...
With all of that i am really glad you are ok, walking, working, and you have family support (wife and kiddies), all of that Meg is a real blessing...Quote:

And funny my snoring didn't make me any friends in my stays or with my wife, we got that in common buddy:01:..And on the positive everyone would like you off the meds, like i said they do funny things to all of us, and for sure they make us unbearable pricks:lol:
The pain meds thing really i always find dangerous Meg, even with all the pain you had or the pain i had, your have a really good point it changes you, and sometimes not always for the good. The real test is to ween off and get back to normal, that is the toughest, at least it was the first time for me....
To finish and not trying to compare or up you, but your potty thing was good, but when i was in for day surgery and having a stone removed, the surgery was supposed to be about an hour or so, 3hrs later and i find out later my wife is having a shit!!!!, I finally was wheeled back to the recovery area i come too, and fuck i had to take a wicked piss!!, so they hand me a jug, and i say fuck that shit!!! I pull off the blankets and the bed is full of blood, i didn't freak out or nothing, so one of the orderly's tried to stop me, i said help or get lost!!! I put down the bed rail myself and start getting out of bed, and it looked like i was walking straight, or maybe it was the orderly keeping me that way, and all this time my wife was quiet and didn't say a word, knowing she would have gotten blasted!!! So the bathroom was maybe 50ft from my bed, and finally got there and go in pull up the gown and literally painted the whole bathroom red with blood and slight hint of yellow piss, but fuck did it feel good and hurt like fuck at the same time!!!!! After that they closed the bathroom for maintenance, and walked me back to the bed and gave me another dose of pain meds..
Now another nurse comes in to the area with some sort of gadget, and i had no idea what she wanted me to do with it.. So... When i was in the surgery room and they finally knocked me out my breathing and snoring was so bad they were nervous and were going to wake me up and postpone the surgery, and funny i woke up while hi had the tool up my pecker , and they hit me again with more knock out drugs..So going back to the thing.. It was a breathing tool and it had a ball in it and i was supposed to blow in and out and make sure the ball hits the top, i tried it once and i told them to stick it!!!! I am fine get lost!!!..
I know you had an interesting stay at your hospital, that was one of mine.....
Edit: Maybe i didn't end that right, they did force me to bring that gadget home, and a couple of weeks ago i was cleaning a corner in my bedroom and i found it, i blew into it for shits and giggles and then took it to my garage and threw it in a recycle blue bin. Now while i am typing this post, i am thinking how much did it cost the hospital to pay for that thing that was really never used??
I can say that whatever my insurance was paying for the hot eastern European nurses was *totally* worth it. I'd let them pay double!
You lucky bugger!!!Quote:

You missed Coward of the County and Islands in the Stream and that he was married five times. After the first couple you have to consider that your spouses aren't really the problem.
Well he is American, it is not out of the norm to be married multiple times, it is in there DNA and usually have kids with a few ofQuote:

Personally as far as Rutger films go, I prefer Ladyhawke, The Osterman Weekend or Zatoichi ... I mean Blind Fury. Actually my favourite thing Hauer was ever in was the original Salem's Lot but like with Blade Runner, he was only a co-star.

^^^ Fascist baiting. :happy:
The company I work for basically finances other companies that could go bust and for that reason the Gov decided it falls under essential and should remain open, I've had to get on a 45 minute train there and back for the first week of this lockdown just to do manual shit to make sure others have what's needed to work from home - laptops, monitors, vpn/Citrix setup etc. Now that's done I'm getting to work from home for the next two weeks unless some cunt decides they just cannot cope with only 7 monitors at home and I have to go back to the office to post another. Getting the train in each day has been weird as fuck it's normally rammed but there's just been one other guy getting on it, we glance at each other suspiciously. If it comes down to it I think I could kill him with my hands. Everything is creepy, the train station which is huge had about 10 passengers walking around and as many police all scribbling shit down on their notepads, presumably descriptions? In the office it's just been me and two other guys over two floors instead of the usual 100+.
Working from home this week is going to be sick, set my shitty work laptop up right next to the Xbox. Unplug my softphone, set jabber status to Away and then play COD Warzone until my rectum bleeds. I've got enough bog roll and ready meals to last up until covid-20.
This whole month has been such a ball ache all because some Chinaman fingered a bat and jizzed in the sea or something else. Why can't they just eat chips like normal people why do the have to fuck about with things!
Sorry to hear Mulder, but this comment is hilarious, something Trump would appreciate :yup:Quote:
