Whoa Nellie. Are you saying I shouldn't drink this Lysol?

By the way. I'm giving most of my Stimulus money to charity- some to Xavier. Some of you Fat Cats on here might consider doing the same.

Great call! Did the same with Xavier.

I believe the fine print indicates it’s better used as an enema. Don’t quote me on that. My eyes aren’t good enough for fine print.

Who had a brother who got Corona, broke quarantine, threatened another person, and also used bleach baths for treatment.

(And I agree Trump's questions about light and disinfectant were dumb before everyone thinks I'm being one sided)

Talk about New York meets LA. Threatening somebody for giving you shit is as New York as it gets. The bleach bath is pure LA, baby. I also can't find where Chris actually admitted to using a bleach bath, just his wife (who seems pretty kooky-dooks). It's probably likely that he did though.

Here is my favorite quote from the article about it:

“I added a small amount—1/4 to ½ cup ONLY—of Clorox to a full bath of warm water (80 gallons),” Cuomo wrote Wednesday.

Cuomo, the wife of CNN anchor and COVID-19 patient Chris Cuomo, said she was following the advice of her doctor, energy medicine and homeopathic physician Linda Lancaster, who suggested she “take a bath and add a tiny amount of bleach, and I mean a 1/4 cup of bleach which in an 80 gallon water tub is a ratio of 1:5000.”

“Why?” she added. “To combat the radiation and metals in my system and oxygenate it.”

That woman is craaaaaazy. I'm surprised essential oils didn't get mentioned at all.

The explosion of “alternative” medicine in this country (mostly by suburban and hipster white women) absolutely shocks me. They’ll tell you all this stuff in your life is bad for you and then use some unproven treatments/supplements that have zero scientific backing.

It's interesting, because based on the people I know who are into crazy alternative medicine (usually essential oils, but not limited to that) it's pretty bi-partisan. You have the super-crunchy far left nutjobs on one side and the everything 'the man' tells us is good for us is bad, far right nutjobs. The one thing they agree on is that Frankincense will cure everything.

It's also 100% suburban white women.

everything.

It's also 100% suburban white women.

I'll give you the white women part, but every urban hipster female, I've ever met would fall into this category as well... Whackadoodles

Legitimate question(s) for all the parents on the board...at what point do you allow your kid(s) to play with their friends? At what point do you allow your kid(s) to play team sports? Are you going to require proof of a negative test from the parents of your kids' friends? Are you going to require negative tests from your kids' opponents? Will you allow your kid to go swimming at the neighborhood pool this Summer?

Basically, at what point are you going to let your kid resume being a kid? My wife and I have debated this for the last couple weeks and I'm curious to know what others are thinking.

We never stopped our kids playing with their neighborhood friends. (At least before we went to Utah for two weeks to be away from everyone.) Here the leagues are telling us that baseball games are to start back up May 11 for one son and May 27 for the other. Stay at home order is ending in one week, so baseball practice will start in a week. We're likely to send my daughter back to the gym (for gymnastics) for small groups once the gym reopens, which is expected to be in maybe two weeks.
