I found out today that no colonoscopies or other similar procedures are being performed by my gastroenterologist's office unless I have a Covid 19 test first. So it looks like the dreaded swab will be getting jammed down my nostril. Not looking forward to it but if Cuomo can man up, I just have to man up and do it. My mother has already had 2 negative tests done, so I would be the sissy of the family if I don't go through with it.

Hey EB, I’m assuming they want you to have the test the day of or a day before the procedure?

First Amazon, now Safeway faces a coronavirus lawsuit. Apparently conditions were so bad at the Safeway warehouse that 51 workers were infected.


Seems the earliest such action may hv been taken against Walmart as early as April.


Think it’ll be left to the courts to decide since Congress is unlikely to work anything out given all time high partisanship.

And what's really amazing is that stocks are (basically) back to their record highs. NASDAQ hit a new intraday record today, S&P 500 is not too far behind. People who panicked and sold at a low point are probably not very happy with their decision.


Warren Buffett’s timeless advice to retail investors to buy a low cost S&P 500 index fund & just hold for the long term still holds true.


Ironically professional investors such as Warren Buffett who focus on fundamental analysis, sold his airline shares at the recent March stock bottom & missed out on the latest price surge. Buffett also didn’t deploy Berkshire’s $128+ Billion cashpile during that time.

But Buffett might still prove to be correct, stocks valuations r at an all time high and artificially supported only by the Federal Reserve which even went to buy junk bonds.

When more bad news comes such as a 2nd coronavirus wave, investors will expect the Federal Reserve to take actions like going to negative rates or buying equities. Actions that some might say has caused the zombification of the Japanese economy. Basically a no-win situation.

Not surprised that Vegas casino patrons r totally ignoring coronavirus safety guidelines. Casino patrons/suckers typically have poor understanding of probability & risk plus lie to themselves by wanting to only hear good news. Well good luck!


Meanwhile in nearby Arizona, things r not looking good.

Will there be a second wave of COVID-19? It all depends on you, according to the National Institute of Public Health of Quebec (INSPQ).

Many think the same thing. Besides, this is what is happening in Florida, as the deconfinement was done very quickly, and there is a strong increase in cases.

Long Island in NY moved into "phase 2" today. Just finished enjoying an ice cold beer at my favorite watering hole.

Started with a Montauk Brewery IPA, then a few Sierra Nevada's, finished it all off with couple of blonds (blond beer). It was so damn good to have an almost normal dining experience away from home. Tables were outside (it was a beautiful day in NY) 6 feet apart, wait staff wearing masks and gloves, etc. Can't wait to do it again!

I read that this morning.

Thanks to vaccines, we have managed to eradicate seven major diseases = smallpox, diphteria, tetanus, yellow fever, whooping cough, measles and polio.

But that is not enough to convince 30% of Americans who will not want to be vaccinated against COVID-19
