The Eight Republican Governors And Their "Rationale"

Along with the beaches, he also excluded the churches:
"Georgia’s governor, Brian Kemp, issued a stay-at-home order that went into effect on Friday evening. His order allows religious services as long as people stay six feet apart when worshipping. But given how how crowded services may be, and the constraints of church pews, it seems impossible to maintain at all times. Moreover, the six-feet-apart guidelines are more of an estimate, and scientists say that for indoor encounters, six feet of separation is a minimum."

Rod, do you want Trump to announce a decree that everyone has to behave in a certain manner? You seem to find authoritarianism somewhat appealing; you mentioned something about how well the Chinese government dealt with the matter in the Wuhan province.

I'm sure he will if in his judgment it's necessary. I like the fact that he's inclined not to seize control over the states.

He should take what Fauci thinks into consideration.

Life, Liberty, and Levin

Posted By Darian Rachal

Life, Liberty & Levin on Fox News Sunday at 8 pm est

Guests are Sen. Tom Cotton and Ret. General Jack Keene. 

This should be an interesting show. Cotton was aware that something of significance occurred in China long before the virus became a problem in other areas.

Well, Rod, I think it's postponed for the COVID update, so you might want to catch it.

Rod, it'd do you some good to expose yourself to something beside that mindless drivel on CNN.😉 But it probably makes you feel good to know that you're one of a few hundred thousand that tune in.😆

I will admit, there is a woman newscaster(Brooke Baldwin) on CNN who's quite a doll and beats anyone on Fox.😛 I think she's come down with the virus, however.😢

Rod, who gives a f*** what Anderson Cooper thinks about anything?sleeping Maybe you(not an imbecile) and a few hundred thousand leftist imbeciles.

Companion of Sirius? 4" refractor or 6" SCT?

Posted By Darian Rachal

I may be too late to attempt the companion of Sirius until later this year; I haven't checked its position in the sky lately. Has anyone had any success with detecting the companion with either of these size scopes? My refractor is a Skywatcher 4" F9, the SCT a Celestron. Thanks for any input.
