This has the potential to get so out of hand that eventually states will start closing their borders. Why should we here in Oregon that got on top of it early with the vast majority of people practicing social distancing and wearing masks allow people from states that flaunted masks, kept the bars open when we closed ours, partied on the beach and in nightclubs be allowed to potentially infect those of us that took this seriously?

These states spiraling out of control are just now starting to enact measures Oregon took months ago. There is a reason our rates of infection are some of the lowest in the country.

Too bad we can't be like our friends in Europe that have done a better job at handling covid than we've done here in the United States. What a stark difference. I understand why Americans are banned. The greatest nation just fell flat on it's face due to a moron that doesn't care. It's embarrasing.

That's a list I like being at the bottom of.

I don't feel so bad now, my has only tortured me with House wives from "Who Gives a Fuck."


Although the episode where the cute one got drunk, naked and tried to seduce the others was enthralling.:bigjoint:

We got rid of cable/satellite a year ago, just couldn't afford it anymore so I don't have to endure things like that for now. Wife has tubi on her phone now, and now tries to get to watch shows like that now....I keep telling her there is not enough beer for me to into shows like that anymore....or space tomatoes for that matter.

I have been a sucker for good anime and cooking shows though....

We were going to cancel cable as well and then covid showed up and all the comcast stores closed and after spending over an hour trying to get through to customer service on the phone we gave up. But it looks like they have reopened the local store so it's going to be just internet and no cable TV. I can find better stuff on youtube. I like cooking but the Food Network and Cooking channel are nothing more than crappy reality shows and nothing about actual cooking. Youtube is full of some great cooks and thousands of cooking videos. All the channels are going to reality nonsense and going the way of MTV that stopped playing music videos years ago.
