I think the anouncment was foolish enough for that reason alone.

The sad thing is, the announcement was saying particular treatments allow for the possibility of not transmitting the virus. I find it hard to believe anyone could get on the treatment without telling someone in the medical field. I wander what the street value is for those treatments.

Enormous, I should think, given how much they cost in pharmacies.

Explosion Blows Out Wall Of Cleveland Home

As opposed to houses blowing up all over the city because of something the gas company is doing?

Yeah, I hate when that happens.
I've had dreams where we'd be standing outside our house watching because the woods or a neighbors house or whatever was on fire, then as we were standing there other random houses would explode. But in the dreams there was never an explanation for the explosions. Now I know it was the pesky gas company. Buggers.

A better way to promote health might be for McDonalds to rearrange the calories in their food, so that a value meal wasn't 500% of your daily recommended intake...but hey, I'm not descended from acient Chinese monks, so what do I know?

Here's one that isn't from the media. We had power problems at work yesterday, so I had to shut down some of the servers. When I powered them back up, one of them (an NT server) gave an error indicating that a service had failed to start.

So I checked the Event log, and found that part of the backup software hadn't started. The error message read:

"The Browser service is dependent on the Job Engine service, which failed to start due to the following error: The operation completed successfully."

Lol, classic.

When I shut out of the virtual desktop software at work every night, an error window pops up.

I know it's got to be some sort of cache-dump error or something stupid, but it just seems funny because it reads like an error message that says, "Cannot shut down software; software will now be shut down."

I'll haveta write down what the exact message is tonight.

Ah yes...winter in Cleveland, useless warnings again.
Motorists Asked To Stay Off Unsalted Roads
Apparently, some people haven't figured that out yet.
Part of driving around here is understanding that "white" is not good, and cold could mean ice.

Besides, how do I know when the road has been salted? And; what are the odds of a road being salted in Cleveland?

Easy, each time you turn onto a new roadway, or cross township/city lines, stop your car, get out, and lick the asphalt.

In other words, the Cleveland PD is saying what they've told the public for years, "Kiss my asphalt!"

That makes my jaw hit the pavement...it's just salt in the wound. You oughta be tarred and feathered.

Oh; what about beet juice...is it salty, or is that why they add the salt?
Is that another way it lowers blood pressure?

The road becomes a salt lick for wild animals. I wonder what percentage of road-kill can be attributed to the salting of roads in winter, and the subsequent licking of roads that follows.

Just as I will go to almost any length for salty fries, I imagine deer, et. al., experience a similar pull to the road.

Interesting question... so I went looking.
Most of the references are in passing on Canadian websites like this.
And a mention of the lack of statistics by a CT study here.

Ahh, CT as in Connecticut, not conspiracy theory. I was thinking, man that must be some CT... Maybe the chemtrails react to the salt/deer spit mixture somehow and make something similar to "swamp gas" which it then carted in to places where the UFO's get spotted or something.

It was a long night.
