The radula of an ark

Special K: "SilkyMilk believes it her highest honor is to reflect those same fantasies as sympathetically and soberly as possible; to truly embody a character, even as that character prepares to fuck a giant squid."

b1-66er: It's hard to argue with that. 

K: I wouldn't.

You aren't what you think

Special K: "By next week they'll have enough test kits to check every UCSF patient for #coronavirus. Until now, they were just testing those with  symptoms. And only 4% of those tested positive. 19 out of 20 who thought they had #COVID19, didn't."

How about when you, "need to go home now?"

Special K: One of the weirdest things about this staying at home business is that it doesn't feel all that weird.

b1-66er: That'll be important in the long(er) run. 

Let in the vat

b1-66er: "Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department dissolves mounted patrol unit"

Special K: That's a lot of acid. 🥁 

You dirty bastinado

Special K: "Two groups of governors, one on the East Coast and one on the West

 Coast, announced Monday that they were forming regional working groups to help plan when it would be safe to begin to ease coronavirus-related restrictions to reopen their economies."

b1-66er: Lord grant me the patience. 

K: You are religious.

It's in the hole!

b1-66er: <April 10 21:15PT> How goes the battle?

DENT: <April 11 17:20 MT I am holed up pretty much like everyone else. Our elective surgery list has been cancelled/postponed. I am seeing 50% the number of patients in the clinic and half of those are telemedicine¹. Life is pretty slow right now. Easter without church. Very strange. 

b1: That's actually the best news I could get from you. 

Thanks for responding. 

D: We just got off the golf course, actually. It is free. First come first served. We have golfed 4 times in the past 5 days. 

b1: Gotta keep in the swing. 

D: Right. I am glad I don't have to make a living playing golf. I would starve. 

b1: Let's hope you don't find out.

I assume the Mayo didn't have a golf minor. They just assume you'll "pursue" it in your glorious wealth. 

D: Golf is not my thing. Too time consuming and not much to show for it afterward.

b1: Except that burnished inner glow of not having to throw a frisbee in front of Baker Hall instead. 

D: So, one of the proudest moments of my life was when my daughter, E-1, joined the Notre Dame Ultimate team. 😁

¹ Ooooh, I guess the fricken Mayo Clinic specialist has a slightly different opinion on telemedicine when it's done by someone lesser degreed and HE'S NOT DEPENDENT ON IT.
