Simply Observations

1.  Anything odd about these demonstrations going on?

Well....they appear to be in states with Democratic governors.  All of them.  So, it is a bit odd.

2.  Are these interview helping or hurting Biden?

Just the viewpoint of a southerner.....but he just looks like he's 95 years old (he's actually 77).  And that's with makeup on.

3.  Whats the relationship between dying of Coronavirus or dying of regular disease in India?

From 2017 numbers, roughly 9-million folks a year who die in India from disease.  So far in 2020, from world totals.....around 240,000 folks have died. 

4.  This 'Morning Joe' piece where Mika asks the sexual assault question....does Joe do well?

Well.....he came out looking like some 4-year-old kid who'd had seven cookies stolen out of grandma's cookie-jar.  I actually felt sorry for the guy, and just shaking my head over Mika.....she had to ask the question and it really lessen Joe's reputation.

5.  Meat rationing coming to GI's commissary operations outside of the US?

Well....NOT yet.  But if you walk into a commissary by mid-day (in Germany), the meat area is mostly bare.  Now, the odd thing here, if you walk into a German grocery.....man, there's tons of pork and beef sitting there.

6.  There's some rumor that the Oscars have flipped the rules on voting....true or false?

Well, they made this funny rule that a movie doesn't necessarily have to be released in the theaters.  So a TV movie, or a streaming release, or virtually anything....can be voted upon.

Now, it's just me saying this.....but Ricky Gervais's 'Afterlife' ought to be put up for a Oscar, but it's done into segments, and there's six episodes to season two.

7.  What did Eva Murray say about Joe Biden?

Lets not get excited, but Eva says that at age fourteen.....Joe complimented her on the size of her boobs.  Now, this was in 2008, and at some dinner function....maybe Joe was hyped up on cocktails, and just said something minor.

Maybe Joe says stuff like that a lot.  Course, it makes you wonder, if Joe said to 100 14-year-old gals.....what's the statistical odds that five would have winked at him and pointed to some broom-closet in the party area?  Let's try hard not to think about such a scenario.
