Me too. And 7 to 10 points of a lead in polls mean nothing. Hillary had more than 2 or 3 million votes and didn't win the Presidency. I keep saying re: Biden - I wouldn't spend any more time in Florida or Texas. Spend time in Michigan, Ohio, and PA. I don't trust FL as being a toss-up for one second, nor Texas. National polls mean nothing, State polls may and I don't even trust those either.

I think when he recovers they're going to use the pictures that they'll be taking and have a nice "God Bless the USA" commercials talking about how he BEAT the virus - we need someone STRONG blah blah blah.

Marine One sure has been sitting there awhile. Thus far they're only showing from the far side, and the door to the WH is blocked from view. They said he would be walking out to Marine One. So it's either serious, and he comes out on a gurney or wheelchair, or it's a photo op and they're getting cameras in place so that he can smile and wave for the photo op.

Why Melatonin? It's a sleep aid. That cough must be a little worse than 'mild'. One of the reporters said, "Republicans have caused Capitol Hill to be a petri dish". Sorry, I laughed. I thought, they made it toxic long before this pandemic.

Actually it might be kind of funny. His head would explode at someone having control over him. Y'all - my friend, a former Miss America lives outside of Fredericksburg here in Virginia and she sent me a video of her driving by a Park n' Ride with a bunch of people with flags, and I was like, what is that? She said prayer vigil...there are plans for tons of them. And the people with flag poles in their yards have lowered the flag to half-staff...in her development she asked someone what it was for...and they said everyone in the development is being asked to lower their flag until he recovers. THEY ARE CRAZY. I told her...stop at one of the vigils and ask what they're praying about. Wasn't it all fake news, and the whole pandemic was a hoax? That's what your boy said remember? So now you've decided it's real? Unbelievable. When she asked the guy at the (what she calls) "The Hate Gate Shack", and he told her "half staff until he recovers." She said "that's against the rules and code of the Flag.Only the President, and State Governors and the Mayor of DC can order half-staff". He said well it was half-staff last week for Ruth Bader Ginsburg". She said, yeah because the President must have agreed to it, and news flash, she was dead. You don't do it for people who are alive.

I think that's exactly what's going to happen. He'll just say it was like having a cold and it's fake news. Interestingly I heard someone on CNN say what I think we all suspected...what was that trip to Walter Reed REALLY about? Just a normal checkup the WH said...I never believed that.

He's done crazy things all along, I still think it's a stunt. Either way I'd love to see him in jail for tax evasion after this with no access to CVS makeup. And they could do virtual debates but I hope they don't. But if they do they can use the mute button to shut him up when his turn is over.

I said similar. I think it's an attempt/ploy to get the election delayed. I don't put one thing past this administration at this point. They're not below trying anything.

What Are You Listening To?
I spend a lot of time around Rehoboth Beach and Milford, DE and he's a huge hometown success story and breaks the mold. He is so awesome. I don't like country music, growing up in very rural Virginia, my family were huge Country music fans and my Granny used to talk about spending time on weekend nights at the Carter fold where they played in a barn. I grew up listening and hating Country music but Jimmie is changing things. Love him.

I never even knew there were different balls for different surfaces. I remember when Wimbledon used white balls and got rid of them because when the grass stained them they blended in with the court. Oh, and I meant to say my post above - the interview with Patty Smyth and John McEnroe was really interesting. They did "He said She Said" and asked them question and it was very surprising to me. They asked who was the bigger hot head. Patty pointed at herself and John pointed at her without looking over. She said he is not the person you saw on the Tennis court. Who cries during a sad movie? Patty pointed at herself and John pointed at her but Patty said, but he does cry on rare occasions during a movie. After a fight, who is most likely to initiate 'making up'. Patty pointed at John and he pointed to himself. He said I just don't like fighting and our relationship is more important than an argument. I was very surprised. He said we're empty nesters now and we're all we've got day to day.

Patty Smyth and John McEnroe were on Today yesterday because she released a new album. At the end of their interview they briefly talked Tennis and John said he was picking Joker.

And Osucka wins. I'm about as Japanese as she is. I'm so over her as a steeplechase horse jumps a wall I am just so over her. And they act like she's Black and Japanese. She can't speak Hatian or Japanese. Oh, she's just very very very shy. Oh whatever. She had to pick Japan or the US as her nationality and she picked Japan so she could get to the Olympics easier. And by the way - hasn't lived there in pretty much her entire life.

Crazed fans like that have no bottom. A rule is a rule, and it was a careless thing to do. I had a girl punch me in the throat when I was in High School for no reason. I was friends with her. It took the air out of me and I had trouble breathing for a couple of hours, and it hurt for a week. It's not funny and when I saw it happen to the lines woman I could tell she was having the same reaction I did.

I don't want to quote the Rock post because the pictures take up alot of space, but Chris Cuomo had it and has said it was the battle of his life. These are 2 FIT men. Chris said he had a 101 to 102 degree fever for 17 days, and appeared on TV via Internet and was sweating - hair wringing wet. People don't understand, this virus is a wildcard. These are 2 extrodinarily fit men who I am sure eat very well and healthier than I do. It's scary. And it's scary how people just discount it, don't wear masks, go to large events, go to their Trump rallies...

I'm glad I have hand sanitizer. And soap for my shower. But I was using Tilex on my hands when this first started because it was the only thing I could find for awhile and I thought, while I'm doing the bathroom and the tub, why not just spray it on. Well let me tell you, it dries out your nails. I'm a guy. And let me tell you when you chip a nail down to the meat, it is a different pain. And I'm missing a big toe and half a left ankle from a lawn mower accident from when I was 5. Now they did say I went into shock. But Imma just gonna say - don't use Tilex on your hands. Ya ain going into shock and it's gonna hurt.

It doesn’t matter whether he meant to do it. Brad Gilbert is a chauvinist dick. If that had been Serena she would probably been fined 30,000$ and out of the next Slam and it would not have taken 15 minutes to discuss it. I kind of liked Joker and now I see he’s an ass so is Brad

My hygiene has gone to hell. I work from home so it doesn't matter but I use my hand sanitizer, I don't go out, but I take like 2 or 3 showers a week and do one load of clothes a week, change my undies, brush my teeth every day and use the cottonelle wipes when I use the bathroom and sponge bath every day and use deodorant, etc. I don't work in the yard, have a landscaper and a maid but I feel dirty. I've just kind of given up. Called Teledoc that I have through my employer - won't give me anything for anxiety because they say it's a behavioral issue (WELL DO YOU THINK? WE'RE IN A DAMNED PANDEMIC), and other employees get Antibiotics over the phone. My doctor is cutting off my Blood Pressure medicine to make me come in for a Physical. He's cutting it off. Like Thanks so much - don't try to kill me or anything. I'm sure business is terrible for them, I get it, but I'm not going in to his office - it's in a Hospital and I'm NOT going IN. I order my groceries and I won't even go to get Gas - until it's down to the last drop and lucky I work from home because it's about 10 gallons to get me for 2 to 3 months. My recycling is a wreck because I don't even want to put it out and touch the bins after the people have touched them. I know this is too much information but I wonder if other people are dealing with the same or even similar. This whole thing has made me so sad. My community didn't open the pool this year and won't. My friends who have pools won't have anyone over...and I am the one who works from home. I would be the one in danger because they are essential and go to work but they won't have anyone over. I'm just so over this whole thing. @victoria foxton South Carolina is terrible. They didn't shut down correctly and they didn't re-open correctly. My sister has a house there and 2 months ago my family was there _ I didn't go - called them and they were put putt golfing, go-karting, at a water park, eating at restaurants, no face masks, shopping, business as usual. I don't think people know how bad it's about to get. Whether they get it or not, they'll spread it to other people. It's coming.

I love that one of the male players said they bring us food, we have suites to watch and we have drivers...he said he loves it. Lack of crowds for every sport right now has personally made me less excited but - these comments from her made me dislike her a lot. What a terrible life you live when you go to a tennis tournament and go home with $75,000 between singles and doubles to lose and 8itch about the room service, drivers and suites. And say you’re a prisoner. Put her in an orange jumpsuit and put her in a real prison with a bologna sandwich and see what she thinks. What a total brat
