    And this guy Trump. Let's just say we will have to elect an actual cartoon character next to continue the trend of each President worse than the last as we have had for the last three. Perhaps Goofy or Daffy Duck would be good choices.
    Nooooooo!

    Let's run from this like hell, and debate whether U.S. taxpayers should pay for security for Harry and Meagan!

    A spokesperson for the Sussexes said: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have no plans to ask the US government for security resources. Privately funded security arrangements have been made.”

    Put the booze down my friend.

    I wonder if that statement came out before or after Trump's tweet saying that he would not pay their security bill. The Royals have never been known to turn down a free ride.

    Edit: The statement by the spokesman was made after the President's Tweet.

    Anything to avoid a debate about recent presidents!

    Not to take anything away from Jacko-he is doing work on the front lines and for his service he deserves a lot of thanks. My guess is that he and I are not the only doctors on this forum.....if anyone else is a medical doctor here maybe they could identify themselves. Although our opinions are often just opinions I do think that we have a bit more insight into the medical part of it in some situations. JMO. And no more political stuff from me. The rest of you guys can post as you like, obviously

    Meanwhile the federal "social distancing" guidelines are now until April 30....maybe longer. Good move.

    None now. I am still a licensed pediatrician but I was able to retire early. I try to keep as up to date as possible on the plague and I am in contact with several of my former colleagues about new developments to see their point of view as well.

    Buchanan? Our first gay President?

    Or do we want to talk about Millard Fillmore, our only necrophiliac President?

    If that’s what you’re into, I saw this in the theatre with my ex and her sister:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kissed

    It’s worth it for the very end of the movie when Sarah Mclachlan starts playing.
