You really should stop taking stabs in the dark at people you do not know anything about.

Use a different face cream.

And, will you be disappointed if no one gives a shit what you consider a waste of money?

I have see it at Farmacia G. and at Soriana.

Yes. “Help where you can” is the best advice. A friend who has an abborote is buying large boxes of eggs then selling eggs for half the wholesale price to his neighbors. Help where you can.

Gee, too bad there is no other place to buy vegetables.

Not everyone who smokes dies of smoking-related illness. Not everyone who doesn’t smoke is otherwise healthy. As that cute talking dog says in the meme, “Keep your nose on your own face.”

I guess that depends upon what your purpose is.

We all can improve. I personally find sarcasm becoming more and more difficult as reality becomes more and more bizarre. Maybe there should be a sarcasm font.

Sarcasm fail on your part. It happens to the best of us. Sarcasm is tough under the best of circumstances. And, these are far from the best of circumstances.

They are open from 9 to noon.

And, when answering please respect this Board’s NO POLITICS rule. Thank you.

Then there are those who see a problem as they sit in chairs in front of their computers and manufacture fantasy solutions that SOMEONE should implement. No matter how ignorant they may be about the entire problem and how unrealistic their fantasy solution is they will still be congratulated by some as having offered a positive response.

“For me, the fresh fresh produce is worth the drive and the hassle.” Is the fresh, fresh produce worth contracting the virus for?

Mudgirl, please start another thread to vent on. This poor guy just wants to talk about moving down here. Some people like to talk about things other than the virus now and then.

The OP said, “We only spend part of the year however are now Permanente and selling our Home in Portland Oregon.” They are in early planning stages and haven’t even yet sold their NOB house. Throttle back and help them with their planning.

There are many individual and coordinated efforts among the national and immigrant communities to help during this crisis. It is all over social media.

Let’s see. There is a pandemic and no one should make jokes, wisecracks, or shoot the shit on web boards. How exactly would that help save lives? If we focus upon the virus only, discuss nothing else, and, apparently, never make a joke or laugh we will all stay healthy? Every action you suggest has been discussed by virtually everyone participating in discussions here. Yes, even people who actually make a joke now and then exhibit an awareness of the situation. They take the situation, but not themselves, seriously. I would advise you do the same, “Joy.” You really do need to lighten up, or as BMH says, “it is going to be a long, long 3 months or more.”

After snacking and grazing yesterday I ordered two turkey dinners. Will enjoy “leftovers” for the next couple of days. Have been eating Marco’s turkey dinners for several years now and they are wonderful! I trust Marco and his sanitary practices.

True! Plus, the real $%&/()s are going down the shoulder, passing on the right, then cutting back into traffic to get ahead of the line.

The Passion Play has been canceled for this year.

Not everyone is physically able or enjoys spending what time they have left moving wheelbarrows of dirt around, climbing ladders to fix and paint things, or do housework. Most of us have spent a lifetime doing those things and are happy to provide incomes for younger people to do it for us. It’s great that you enjoy spending your time doing such things but not everyone wants to or can.

I am sure those people will read your post on this web board, realize what fools they are, and change their behavior. And, if they don’t then city officials will read your post, declare you a genius, and begin setting up the tents.

Stop reading the posts you are tired of. Block the posters who annoy you. Ignore political comments and keep on topic. That may not be as much fun as trying to dictate what others say, but give it a try.

I received my first scam call a week or so ago. He had a very lightly accented voice and was so friendly! Hi, how are you doing, he cooed. I asked who this was and then he really poured on the charm. “Oh, no, I can’t believe you don’t know who this is,” he said with a chuckle. I had just gotten up and had not yet had coffee so I was in no mood to play. I said I sure did know who he was and he was trying to get me to say a name and then we’d chat and hang up but he would call me back and say there’d been an emergency and he needed money which I was supposed to send him. There was a few seconds of silence before he said, “Well, aren’t you the smart one.” I said, “I’m smarter than you are, asshole.” He hung up.
