They made five or six Gambler movies. I didn't remember that and had to imdb it, but I remember him always being on tv when I was a kid in the 80s. Turns out a lot of those times were probably watching some sequel or a guest spot on whatever my mother was watching. He was absolutely everywhere in the 80s in hick towns across the country.

If you wanted to know where all the masks are, ask Taiwan

https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asia/coronavirus-covid-19-taiwan-travel-ban-entry-12551318

quote:

Wu said the United States will provide Taiwan materials for 300,000 protective suits, while Taiwan will export a weekly supply of 100,000 masks to the United States when the island has enough supply for itself.

"This symbolises the close relationship between Taiwan and the United States, and are for the joint efforts to combat the disease. We hope to join hands to contribute to international society," Wu said.

Taiwan in late January banned the export of face masks, and has since boosted its weekly production to 11 million.

Health Minister Chen said the government is aiming to raise that number to 15 million in coming days.

"Kudlow says coronavirus relief package worth more than $2 trillion"

I can't tell if this is the package that gives the means-tested one-time payments or not, but at 2 trillion overall I think that puts corporate bailouts at 3:1 the amount of money for people, maybe 4:1 or higher. And frankly they will need a steady series of these because we're not really containing the virus as-is, it's piece-meal. They're using the Republican 2008 GFC response to a 1929 + Spanish Flu level event.

And also the job creators are more important than the labor force!

Government of limited power need not be anemic government. Assurance that rights are secure tends to diminish fear and jealousy of strong government, and, by making us feel safe to live under it, makes for its better support. Without promise of a limiting Bill of Rights, it is doubtful if our Constitution could have mustered enough strength to enable its ratification. To enforce those rights today is not to choose weak government over strong government. It is only to adhere as a means of strength to individual freedom of mind in preference to officially disciplined uniformity for which history indicates a disappointing and disastrous end.

Oh, if you were wondering, the translation of their sick soundtrack is the following:

"Dear citizens,
currently, a strict curfew is in effect.
Remain at home.
Exceptions are: commuting to work, doctor's visits, and essential groceries.
Transgressions will be punished harshly."

This loving thing, and - occasionally, the loving thing with a police escort - has been rolling through my neighborhood almost every loving hour today.
I've given up and opened my first beer at 4, because I legit can't take it anymore.

Nah they've resorted to temporary clones at this point, they dissolve into a puddle of goop after stepping off the debate stage, and they defrost another one each time he needs to make a public appearance.

1. People filling their pantries.

2. People got a significant fraction of their meals at restaurants. With that avenue closed, traffic at grocers must increase.
