Coronavirus II

[GodFearinGunTotin]

There are some really brilliant people in the Congressional Budget Office. I'm getting the sense that a recovery anything close to pre-covid normality is years away. We are in a hole and still digging. I'm not sure anyone can tell us where the bottom is.

I agree. My point though is there is more to this than saving lives. I gather that the ones that have the president’s ear though are those concerned with only a single aspect of this situation.

ETA: Anyone who’s been watching the daily briefings will have seen a few of the reporters (rightfully) grilling the president on his upbeat tone only a week or two ago how we’re going to turn this around quickly and get back to work. The question I’d ask if I were one of them is: “Mr. President, a week or so ago you were telling the American people that we were going to defeat this virus quickly and that 15 days of lock down was all that’s required. You’ve also said that the recovery will be a V shaped recovery and that the economy would come storming back and be as strong or stronger than it was before. You were wrong about the 15 days, what makes you confident about a recovery after a 1.5 month shut down?”

Are we finally closing the borders completely?

A few videos at the source as well.

The crew of the USS Theodore Roosevelt gave the aircraft carrier's ousted skipper a loving farewell on Friday, assembling in the hundreds in the ship's hangar bay and cheering “Captain Crozier! Captain Crozier!” as the officer walked down the gangway to a car waiting pierside.
In one video, Crozier is seen stepping off his ship for the last time as CO and turning to give his still-cheering crew a wave before walking away.
“Now that’s how you send out one of the greatest captains we ever had!” said one sailor in a Facebook video first reported by Stars & Stripes. “The [greatest of all time], the man for the people.”

We had better improve security on the southern border asap. Mexico is doing very little in regard to covid-19,and when things head south many will try to head north.

Maybe it's the new Navy, but I don't think that popularity is a defining element for a man responsible for 4000+ souls and weaponrs that can level a country.

We received an email from Old National, the application we filled out this week has been changed and is now "obsolete" as of this morning. We have to go through and fill out a new application they just issued a couple hours ago before the bank can send everything in. Just a heads up.

I have heard that what banks had last night was still “draft” and that the SBA loan process can’t actually start until 2 PM today.

^this.
The mexican president has been in denial about the c-virus. Even his own party is mad at him! People in mexico are going about their daily lives like nothing is wrong. Mexico city is going to be worse then our New York city before this is over as they are so clustered in there.

Don't know if anyone has posted this anywhere or not.

From my favorite show of all time.

Well, I have the updated application in another window and it is different, the interest rate has also gone up again. I don't know, maybe my bank is mistaken but they are saying the "old" application will not be accepted. Honestly, not really a big deal, it takes only 10 minutes to fill out the new one.

Mexico has closed down non-essential businesses. They even stopped making Corona beer. Not because of the name - sales were increased quite a bit as of late - but because they were considered non-essential.

Main changes appear to be one person can sign as representative instead of all who own over 20%. But is appears the calculations are now to be based on calendar 2019 instead of the trailing 12 months. Those with very seasonal business have some flex in this.

I wonder if we could use Corona beer to kill the Corona virus? If you've ever tasted it then you know it's not THAT much of a stretch!
