    Distance learning?

    Both my kids are doing some activities (1 back in school, the other in a summer school program). Have my fingers crossed, but they have been absolutely exstatic going through it and both places seem to be doing a good job. But obviously there is some level of risk, but my presumption is, they...

    Distance learning?

    No - I think everyone just has to be stricter regarding this. And I'm a culrpit - in the past, if they had a small cough (but no fever), I was sending them. Fever was usually when I would keep the kids home (or obviously if they were throwing up or you could just see behaviorally they weren't...

    Distance learning?

    I'll ignore your first question - cause you clearly don't want to look into anything. On your 2nd question, I am 100% supportive of anyone's right to protest.  I won't talk about the street riots because I don't believe that to be reflective of the majority of the protesters and I do think that...

    Distance learning?

    As part of my job, I actually look at a ton of scientific data and research on this topic and other topics like it, and I do agree with you, there is a lot of misguided data and information that is out there. The use of masks is not one of them. The only misguided information was the initial...

    Distance learning?

    Exactly - You have the freedom to choose not to enter those establishments and do your commerce online.

    Distance learning?

    Materially - They have looked at it and when both people wear masks, the rate of infection drops significantly. Most of the masks do very little in preventing you from getting the virus (unless you are wearing some of the higher end masks with much stronger filters), however, all of the masks do...

    Distance learning?

    They only reason they said it than was they had to protect the supply of PPP for the health & medical professionals because we had no inventory/stock and weren't ready for this, nor were we ready to pivot and quickly address those PPP issues.  The science has always backed it up, but the...

    Recommendation on Cabinet Companies and Companies that sell Vanities

    What is cheap / not cheap.  I have a small to medium sized kitchen and am currently looking redo the kitchen, in particular the cabinets plus quartz countertops. I'm stlll early in the process, but from the quotes I've been getting, I'm looking at somewhere in the $8-$15K range (the $8k quote...

    Estimate of deaths by end of June from Covid-19

    Either way - we will just stop testing and identifying who is positive by that point.  Is this really what our great nation has came to. We are just going to bury our heads in the sand and give up.  I can't get over how significantly the US has failed relative to the vast majority of developed...

    Which restaurants can you dine in?

    Hopdoddy's $5 burger isn't just a burger...it is a burger and fries.  I'm still taking the Habit over any of them but thats a other discussion.

    Which restaurants can you dine in?

    I've bought the 5buck burger a few times. I almost thought to get out of my car and tell everyone waiting in the giant line that you can just get this burger (which is pretty good) + fries for a similar price.

    Which restaurants can you dine in?

    I've never waited, but see the one at the marketplace regularly and I've seen it at different points wrapping through the Best Buy & REI parking lot.  My guess was 25 minute + waits, but I did have a friend who went and said the line moves surprisingly quick. Either way - there isn't a fast food...

    Which restaurants can you dine in?

    My view - risk / reward. If they are getting the volumes with drive through, why increase risk that you have to do deep cleanings + the ultimate increase in staffing to ensure you are consistently cleaning everything. To me you just up the anti for how much exposures that could emerge so...

    coronavirus

    I don't get why the schools don't shift their attention to dedicated focus areas. I.e., instead of having one teacher teach all subjects...divide it up more based upon concepts. Have one or two teachers focused on science, another few focused on math, etc.  Get more targeted in terms of how you...

    coronavirus

    I'm curious - what are you evaluating in terms of back-up plans? Private schools, who have a bit more skin in the game in terms of how well they need to execute the remote learning to ensure they get paid? Or are you looking at bringing a teacher to your house?

    Does anyone else get the OC Register delivered?

    I was curious about the ads. I always enjoyed the ads and they are super thin right now.  But I wondered how much of that was due to with COVID and fact a ton of stores were closed.

    Does anyone else get the OC Register delivered?

    I signed up for it too. Was nice getting paper again - plus kids have gotten a kick out of the mini page / comics (that in and of itself was worth it).  I mean $5 bucks for a full year of Sunday Papers...what a bargain (plus the oline access).  I did the 2 year one and I started getting my...

    coronavirus

    This was a sad story. Especially since in local politics, we aren't typically talking about career politicians, etc. This are people who truly are serving the local communities (who have full time paid gigs, etc).
