Just my own humble opinion...

We have had any number of these viruses make the rounds. Normally, they run their course and you don't hear anything more about them. This time, it is being treated like the bubonic plague. I simply do not agree with that.

To hear it told, getting this virus is an automatic death sentence. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Sure, people will die. People die every day. Some from disease, some from injuries, some just from natural causes. How many are dying from this virus? Are we being told the truth? How many of these deaths in the daily/hourly death count are actually from this virus?

I knew one man that was said to have died from it. He was about 85 years old. He had two major strokes in the last 12 months. He was in very poor health and in a nursing home - more like hospice. as near as I could tell, it wouldn't have taken much more than a hangnail to finish him off. God rest his soul. But, this death is now credited to the virus.

Any more, I hate to even look at the news. All it is (and has been for years) is more doom and gloom. Fact checking seems to have gone by the wayside. Objective reporting seems to have gone with it.

If I want editorials, I turn to the editorial page. I just don't want the editorials on the front page. I am sick to death of this unprofessional journalism. I am also sick of these governor/dictators destroying our economy SELECTIVELY. Note that the guy in the little store selling shoes or clothing is told he cannot open his store because he is not an essential business. At the same time, big box stores can sell all of the same things because they are essential? Is this right? How about barbers and hairdressers? May not be essential, but I sure do need a haircut!

Well, enough is enough. We can agree or we can agree to disagree. I've said about all I have left to say on this subject.

Respectfully, Jim G.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
