Apparently being quarantined means your wife gets to have an opinion on the relative dustiness of your office.

And what to do about it.
And for the record, I'm a bit of a neat-freak...
It has now been established that the laws of cleanliness applicable to my office do not extend to her closet.

Clarity is important.

Here is the 80 in-patient French Study (28 pages) on the use of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin:

"we noted a clinical improvement in all but one 86 year-old patient who died, and one 74 year-old patient still in intensive care unit."

Dr. Brix: "The predictions of the models don't match the reality on the ground in either China, South Korea or Italy."

This statement should be getting a lot of attention.
Embarrassed that I typo-ed Dr. Birx's name. Apologies.

Got it right in previous tweet.

1) $25mm for Kennedy Center - P. 722

2) $75mm for National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities - P. 723

3) $75mm for National Endowment for Humanities - P. 724

So many departments/Agencies, etc in this bill.

Also no comp that I see w/pre-exisiting departmental budgets.
$350 million for “Migration & Refugee Assistance” - P. 817

$88mm for Peace Corp - P. 817

$324mm for "Diplomatic Programs" - P. 816

Again, one of the biggest problems I have is comparing what is being paid versus previous budget. Is this windfall for certain agencies??
Note that @mattgaetz states there is not a congressional pay raise in the bill

1. So here's a humorous and dumb thing that happened this week on twitter, which I thought was particularly illuminating about the unhealthy relationship journalists have with this hellsite.
2. Every week in the magazine, we have a back-of-the-book Obituary, similar to the way the Economist might have and other mags that want to highlight one notable life and give them a full page and really try to get at what was extraordinary in that life.
3. This week's obituary was pretty obvious, when Toni Morrison passed away early in the week. Now, we have a stable of writers who do wonderful obituaries--it's a skill, really, that requires a certain touch and deep well of knowledge.

It’s #Monday, I’m boozing it up at a 4 seat bar, the #barkeep is a long pourer, and I’m all fucking set if I get something stuck between my teeth.👇🙃 #RandomThoughts #drinking #OutAndAbout
Shooting the shit with a friend, she’s proud to be doing well with her plants - unusual for her.

The key was a #video explaining the benefits of pruning.

She needs REASONS. She got them.

Apparently, pruning in a particular manner stimulates growth hormones.

Of course, this led to me initiating a discussion about the #movie I just watched on Hulu, called “The German Doctor.”

The main character was Josef Mengele. #ThisHappened

People, this is why I’m known in my circles as “The Black Hole Of Conversation.” SMTH

(1) I recently decided to do some trench work on $BBBY as a possible turnaround play. The stock is down over 80% from its 2015 peak and, on the surface, boasts some interesting metrics:
(2) The stock sells for a mere 0.16X sales, 0.66x book, 5X earnings, and 2.4X cash. Despite recent trouble, the company also produces a 14% ROE and pays a 4.6% dividend. None of these numbers matter, however, if sales continue to decline. So what is holding back sales?
(3) Boots on the ground, a visit to a couple locations gave me some answers. My first impression was how cluttered the stores are. Being a bit of a neat freak, I felt uncomfortable and almost left from the start. However, I was there to study and so pressed on.
