I am insisting he complete the SAT prep... He thinks I'm mean.
Mean, cruel, and horribly unfair. How could you doubt it?

But I am getting an email each morning that says the package is on the Fed Ex truck and will be delivered today. Got the same email this morning, will see what happens. This is an item that I am really needing.
Moreno, 44, was charged Wednesday in federal court with one count of train wrecking, ....
At the last minute, Moreno lit a flare. He looked up at the camera, raising his middle finger to it. Then, just before the train smashed through the concrete barriers, he stuck the flare out the window, keeping it there all the way through impact.
He told the detectives, “I can’t wait to see the video.”
Sounds interesting, but it is behind Jeff Bezo's wall.I didn't know if I should post this here in the News of the Day or over in the Travel Impacts thread:
Saw a report of a Gallup poll asking what how long it would take before you would come out of self isolating..
7% said they would stay self isolated until a vaccine came out and presumably get a shot..
What the heck, do they any idea how long that will take?
https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/2020/04/02/coronavirus-wisconsin-latest-updates-cases-cancellations/5110491002/Seven of Wisconsin’s largest farm groups have asked the U.S. Department of Agriculture to use its extensive purchasing power to buy large amounts of dry milk, butter and cheese that normally would be going to restaurants and the food-service industry.
Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association, Edge Dairy Farmer Cooperative, Dairy Business Association, Cooperative Network, Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation, Professional Dairy Producers of Wisconsin, and Wisconsin Farmers Union say the current circumstances, far beyond their control, are beginning to result in farms having no place to accept their milk.
In fact, this week some large Wisconsin dairy operations have begun dumping milk because there is no buyer for it.
“With 80 percent of Americans under order to shelter in their homes, hundreds of thousands of restaurants, schools and other food service outlets have closed or significantly reduced offerings, which means cheese and butter manufacturers have lost their largest market. While retail sales have increased in past weeks, they are now leveling, and orders are slowing. Dairy manufacturers and processors also have seen their export markets decimated,” the Wisconsin farm groups said in their letter to U.S. Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue.
“Commodity dairy prices have plummeted and will result in milk prices lower than many farms can handle to sustain long-term viability,” the letter said.
Our local Oberweis store charges $8.99/quart for premium ice cream. The sale is 4 qts. for $21. Savings of $15. Bought 4 qts. and gained 2 lbs. in 2.5 days. My choices were:
Dark Raspberry with dark chocolate chips
Dark Chocolate and Sea Salt
Dark Chocolate and Peanut Butter and I decided to cut some of the fat with Lemon Sorbet.

Maybe those 7% are in the high risk group?
I found this article to be an interesting analysis of the various issues affecting the ability and timing to make a vaccine. Even 18 months appears to be optimistic.

Probably not. We still don't have a SARS vaccine and that outbreak occurred in 2003. Nor for MERS, which started in 2012.
Agree.I really don't remember the whole world shutting down and the market dropping 30% when SARS was out.
9 women can't make a baby in 1 month, but properly motivated, 50 companies might be able to come up with a vaccine faster than 1 company.
Agree.
We still have that damn trial period, though.
Many of us remember the swine flu vaccine debacle in the 70s.
