Lead guitar is just a thumb. Pretty incredible. Watch the thumb.

Some deep reading. Just saw this guy on TV. He's from the Naval War College. And, five-time Jeopardy champion. I use Wikipedia for general info about sources. Sorry. It is what it is. Not pretty, seems political. But the guy should have the best inside view. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Nichols_(academic)

This is a Washington state thing. Governor Jay Inslee screwed up. Could hurt his re-election chances. @Mike https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/no-one-can-be-russell-wilson-gov-inslee-says-after-suggesting-country-needs-tom-brady/P6F6JJBWE5E4LJ3OKADHUILRV4/

There is enough data being generated that people are starting to estimate outcomes from the COVID-19 virus. It doesn't look like society is going to collapse due to the virus, although the economic damage is another story. The University of Washington is a university of good reputation. They estimate 81,000 deaths, best case. I've added the annual common flu death numbers for comparison., from the CDC site. The worst flu seasons are in the low 60,000's, high ends of the estimates. I did not dig in to the details of how they derived these numbers. Just trusting the institutions. https://komonews.com/news/coronavirus/uw-study-estimates-81000-us-deaths-from-coronavirus-1429-in-wash-state https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/index.html And here's the UW web site - http://www.healthdata.org/ And the paper the news article came from - http://www.healthdata.org/news-release/new-covid-19-forecasts-us-hospitals-could-be-overwhelmed-second-week-april-demand-icu

How many homes have walls that will stop a bullet? I doubt that people are really thinking through what urban combat would be like, with their family in the home. If they don''t have a home like that couple in Tremors, forget about it. Reba could handle a gun though.

I wonder how many of these people actually know how to use a gun? NRA wants gun shops to be deemed "essential" so that they can stay open. https://apnews.com/c134e74f8813297d139b1d217a48c932

Isn't that a banana hammock? Eeewww.....

Lawmakers give example of "social distancing". I'm reminded of jokes about body parts and measurement confusion. Big numbers confused with small lengths.

Fourth rep positive. Like a contagious virus is getting around or something...

Are you sure that it will actually lock down in a backward direction?

Forgot that you had posted that. It will be doubly bad without condoms available. Another briefing coming up soon. Not going to comment anymore. Apparently Trump will be introducing his county classification system. Risk factor based.

Florida is "intercepting" people coming in to the state on certain roads. Not sure what they do then. Send them back the way they came? This is going to kill the illegal drug trade. https://www.politico.com/states/florida/story/2020/03/27/florida-expands-quarantine-to-visitors-from-louisiana-9422247

Losing sense of smell and taste is apparently a sign of COVID-19 infection. Did not know that. Another Representative tests positive.

These people might be the unluckiest of all. Cruise ship lab rats. At least they get immediate care. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-00885-w https://komonews.com/news/local/4-passengers-die-dozens-sick-on-holland-america-ship-off-panama

Soon we'll have a surge of COVID-19 babies... https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/27/global-condom-shortage-coronavirus-shuts-down-production

Is the arrow in the picture correct? And the orientation while driving is as shown? And is the picture taken with the engine running? There's no fuel even at the outlet of the filter, to pass through to the carbs. You can get a bubble in the filter if it's on its side, but fuel will still get through, like Mark implies, if the filter outlet is covered. The carb's float bowls will fill until the float valve seals. Try to separate your filter problem from the running problem. They might not be related.

Are The Creatures from Canada? Scary. Here's some old Canada. CSNY is good too. Fractured times. It's all good.

This video is uplifting, at 27:50, and 23:00. It's Cuomo, but it's just his personal opinion. The web site is the one that I found when i searched his name and the briefing date. I saw it this morning. He has daughters. https://www.democratandchronicle.com/videos/news/politics/albany/2020/03/26/coronavirus-new-york-gov-andrew-cuomos-march-26-briefing/2917523001/

Bill Gates is talking on CNN. Seems rational. Good to see the billionaires getting involved. Although, why didn't he do something sooner? Here's their Foundation page. https://www.gatesfoundation.org/TheOptimist/coronavirus https://www.gatesnotes.com/Health/How-to-respond-to-COVID-19

This article, below, is interesting, and at first glance it seems political. But it's not about sides, it's about process. There are still problems ahead for the big $2T bill. It might get delayed even longer. Sorry, but this might be ulcerative. The big bill has passed the Senate. Now the House has to vote on it. But, apparently, a very few individuals, on both sides, want to have their votes recorded. So they might delay passage by calling for a roll call. Which would mean many of these older in-danger Representatives would have to travel to Washington to place their vote. There is also interesting info about the bill itself in the article. Like the fact that localities with fewer than 500,000 people will not get any money. I'm not even sure really what that means. Apparently if you live in a small community that's labeled that way you are on your own, no money. And, also, one Representative has been hospitalized with COVID-19. They need to get things done. Apologies for not sticking rigorously to COVID-19. This seems worth sharing though. I have learned more about the political process in the USA in the last two years than I ever wanted to know. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/26/nancy-pelosi-coronavirus-package-150815

You have a valid point. I've already edited the one post of mine that was "too much" so to speak, but that was 5 minutes after I posted it. And, as someone has already pointed out, this is no different than the Boobs thread. Nobody has to read the posts or reply. We're all adults. The politics have already been played out anyway, they're very clear. The use of the "Guidelines" seems a little disingenuous. I don't think that AV8, or anyone, needs protection. Good luck. Let's get back to COVID-19, and what to do about it. My little town is really shut-down. People have apparently realized the seriousness. The downside is that everyone seem so sad. Not a smile anywhere, even avoiding eye contact. Like we're all diseased. p.s. I just remembered that I started this thread because the topic was filling up AV8's Hitachi thread. Sorry that people's opinions have diverged since then but that's life...

Smear some white paint over those castings and the numbers and letters will show up. Or rub with some sandpaper and the high spots will shine. Pretty sure I see and S and an H and a 6.

I found a site that is apparently compiling test data and reporting it by state. Just numbers. https://covidtracking.com/data/
