The bad news is that I live in the state, Washington, that so far has had 6 COVID-19 deaths. The ONLY COVID-19 deaths in the entire US!!! The good news is that I live in Vancouver, Washington, kinda-sorta the 'ass end' of Washington, about 160 miles south of where the main COVID action is. The bad news is that a few days ago, I visited a friend temporarily in a care home very near Seattle (NOT the one that made the news over the last 2-3 days, connected to 5 of the 6 deaths.) This friend has numerous ailments, but generally dating from long before COVID existed. More bad news is that 5 days after I left, he got very ill with vomiting, and had to go to a hospital. He thinks it's conceivable he got this COVID-19, although I don't think he has been tested for that. Yet. He is also fairly close to the Chinese community in Seattle, which is about 4.5% of the population there. More bad news is that I hear that especially hard-hit are old men. In little more than 1 month, I turn 62. More bad news is that people with diabetes are hit harder. I have diabetes. So, anyone want to take bets on whether I fall ill in the next 2-3 weeks? Jim Bell

yes, it's the flu. Older people are more vulnerable. Oh wait, older people are more vulnerable TO ANY DISEASE. Who would have thought it???

a more interesting bet is how long will it take for the flu hysteria virus to fade. How long before the current psy-op propagated by fucktards gets replaced by the next psy-op? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2020_coronavirus_patients_in_China.svg in principle the psy-op has already 'peaked' since, as the chart shows, there are no new flu cases.
Hi, Jim! Hope you are less stressed now, after opening your heart and sharing your fears. Sorry for being less 'cecilian' than usual, but I do need to sleep. Mode sleepy zombie on. (- _ -)zzzz... Please, dear, you will NOT fall ill. Stop thinking this kind of depressing and very stressing thing to avoid psychological and physical somatizations, please. First of all, with only 61 years old, a guy is not considered "an old man" neither in Brazil or Japan. Really sorry whether it happens in USA. My best friend is 61 years old since the last month. I have really great friends with 72, 88, 92, etc, etc, years old, and I loved to make stupid jokes when some of them were 69 years old, hahahaha!!! ;D Also have lots of teenager friends and it's fun to mix the ideas of both groups. Life is funnier when you learn something new all the days! :D Well... You do need to manage better your diabetes. Sorry for saying it, but you should walk around or try biking. Pardon, you are overweight and it is definitely not good for your health, with or without coronavirus. Control your fears. Try to occupy your mind with good thoughts and fun hobbies. No panic, please. I live in a place very famous for being the "Oriental District" of the whole country and for being one of the most haunted places of the city. Life is still the same here. Or death, in the ghosts' case. Sincerely? I have better things to do now instead of becoming sick, and I bet you also have much more to do. Take care of yourself with tenderness and be well, darling. Relax and be happy, please. Kisses and hugs! <3 Ceci
Hey Jim drink lots of oj, get some exercise and lots of sleep. Even though you are super old don't think you'll get it. Best rooty -------- Original Message -------- On Mar 2, 2020, 11:03 PM, jim bell wrote:

Natural orange, lemon, or other fruits juice, not disgusting artificial beverages with lots of sugar, please, Jim. Green tea would be healthy too. (But it has a bit of caffeine. Do not drink it in case of insomnia or anxiety, please!) You need to give a boost in your organism. So keep your hydration, eat healthy food, and get regular rest, please. Rooty, being sincere, why did you decide to be cruel? "Super old"?! Jim is old enough for being our father, but he is definitely not a "super old" person. Ask excuses to Jim, please. He is already sad enough for being called "super old". And Jim, sorry for saying you are overweight. For your country patterns, you are just another regular guy. Sorry, it was not "fat shaming", just think it is not healthy when you already have diabetes. Take care with this disease. It can be most dangerous than any flu. Kisses, take care! <3 Ceci
I just discovered that about 2 months of most (but not all) Cypherpunks traffic has been going into my spam folder. Fixed that.

Yes, I am still healthy, well over one month after my (conceivable) exposure. I've heard that Seattle will be quarantined tomorrow. If that's true, you will hear it on the news. 40 deaths in Washington State so far, I think. (But I haven't heard the news this morning..)
Rooty, being sincere, why did you decide to be cruel? "Super old"?! Jim is old enough for being our father, but he is definitely not a "super old" person. Ask excuses to Jim, please. He is already sad enough for being called "super old". Well, because of the spam folder problem, I didn't hear about the "super old" thing. But at age 20, I would have probably said 61 is "super old" too. And in about 3 weeks, I will be 62.
And Jim, sorry for saying you are overweight. For your country patterns, you are just another regular guy. Sorry, it was not "fat shaming", just think it is not healthy when you already have diabetes. Take care with this disease. It can be most dangerous than any flu.
No need to apologize: I AM "overweight". Sigh.

I'm older than you by half-a-decade. Had the flu for Xmas (Just like the CSN&Y song). Smoke. Live houseless, on a thousand dollars a month, therefore not getting the best nutrition or a place to bed down and rest/recuperate all day, and yet after four days of mid-grade fever and chills, and a few more with a phlemy cough, I'm very much alive. Don't let your own fears snuff you. Rr
Holy cow Tazer - 1,000 a month???? I pay more in taxes every 2 weeks than that and I'm a bot. You must not live in Cali - btw your older than dirt to - -------- Original Message -------- On Mar 3, 2020, 9:03 AM, Razer wrote:

Actually Weed tar is water soluble and gets coughed up along with other more noxious garbage that gets into the lungs that originates from cars, cigarettes and such. It's an expectorant. Even the smoke and tars from weed are helpful and healthy. Even cigarettes! I blame this first flu I've had in as long as I can remember on the fact I mostly quit smoking (Pack of straights a day down to 2, 3 a day in September) and don't have a good coating of bacteria/virus toxic tars coating my lungs. Ps. I never use bongs. The water can harbor nasty bacteria until the pot tars kill it, and fish fuck in it. Rr

AP humor you hid in those words Jim. Would be funny if a prediction market sprung up around that question, such a market could be viewed as a great honor. And profitable if you put $10 on it and decided to avoid/survive corona, thereby turning it into $10M at all your dead detractors expense :) I add $10 to the "jim lives" pot.
To be clear, the standard way PM wagers work is zero sum. You bet he dies and Jim bet he lives. Should he live you lose and he wins. On Wed, Mar 4, 2020, 1:10 PM grarpamp <grarpamp@gmail.com> wrote:

Some dry statistics (might be wrong): catching common flu in usa: about 2% catching coronavirus in usa: about 3.7861 E-5 After your period ends, your "local" statistics will be either 0% xor 100%. Today is the first day of the rest of your life, so enjoy it.
