Conservatives: Get AOC out of politics! She doesn't have enough experience.
Also Conservatives: Put ACB on the Supreme Court! I don't care that she's never even tried a case.

Yeah, this renewed wave in Europe is a worry. All the best, Jeremy. In Victoria, Australia, today we are making a staged opening after an almost continuous 9 months of lock-down. Our state copped a second wave (it was actually still just the first) while other states has recovered. We’ve had zero new cases for the past few days. Im looking forward to grabbing a beer this weekend and thank Christ the kids can finally get back at school.
Spain declared the "state of alarm" again. It'll be for 14 days but can be expanded until...May 2021.
Here we're still under lock down but many people is not following it...and this is the reason we still have several cases.
Wanted list:
Ubris
Murder hornets.

After 10 years of asking, I've finally been given the go-ahead for bilateral knee replacement surgery; I go under the robot knife on November 30th. Yes, doing both at the same time. Hit me up with your recovery stories if you've had it done, interested in any survival hints. I'm well stocked in single malt scotch to start.

All the best for your surgery! After such a long wait, the new knees will be welcome, I’ll bet.
I haven’t had my knees done, but I had some pretty major shoulder surgery a few years ago. Recommendations:
- talk to your doctor at length about when you should start doing exercises, and what exercises to do, after the surgery. Starting as early as you can-but no earlier - is really important.
- if you go to a physical therapist - and I would - do what they say. Don’t push too hard, but do what they tell you. For my shoulder, they focused on getting movement back first, and then building up strength later.

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
I wish you the best of luck. My mother had to have both hips replaced and I cared for her during her convalescence both times. The physical therapy (a therapist actually came to the house and helped with her exercises but I cannot remember how long that went for) afterwards is a bit rough, not going to lie about that but she made it through and felt much better afterwards.
Good luck George. You're in my prayers.

All the best, George

Good luck, George! I hope everything goes well and you have a speedy recovery. Enjoy some TV catch-up time while you're recuperating.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
Thank you! My initial pre-op interview is next week, so they'll be laying out all the guidance then. I already know I'll have two weeks of in-home therapy and then 6 months at a clinic somewhere. I'm totally familiar with the "don't do too much, and do it in the right order" guidance ... ignored that and paid for it many times in my younger days!All the best for your surgery! After such a long wait, the new knees will be welcome, I’ll bet.

Thanks Bill!sage advice good luck
That seems to be overwhelmingly what folks are telling me for this particular surgery; the first couple of weeks really suck, the suck continues for a couple months but at a lesser level as time goes on, but in the end you're sorry you waited so long to get it done!I wish you the best of luck.

Thanks John! I promise not to let up on my ARCs & Proofs duties!Good luck George. You're in my prayers.

I want to buy a domain name in order to promote my website on social media, with shorter links.
The domain is parked and seller is asking 2,850 euros. lol
I didn't expect to pay nothing, but that's a lot more than I can afford for a domain name!

I’ve discovered we can measure the accuracy of autocorrect software based on the number of standard drinks the user has had before it no longer works reliably.
My iPhone appears to have an autocorrecting ability of between 2 and 3 standard drinks.
