hell..... why not both?

if it were only that easy..... long story short, im stuck in new mexico until my step daughter is old enough to say she wants to move to Canada. upside is it should only be a few years.

and you know what... it matters a fuck load for me. it is a daily comparison of where i am, to where i want to be. and where i want to be is doing so much better than where i am.

nah, you are right, my watching the numbers on https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries for both here in new mexico and in canada over the last six months are meaningless. last week, new mexico hit a point where it had over twice the number of active cases as all of canada. its a bit better now.

you know what, i think you missed the whole point of my post. what i am saying is that this shitty little state of 2 million people, a year in, still cant social distance or wear a fucking mask on their stupid fucking faces well enough to get the number of active cases lower than my home country of almost 38 million people. and its been that way for a very long time. thank you.

No.... america is not great again.... Orange hitler didn't finish the job, you will have to vote him back in come 24.

how long of a period of time? the six months ive been here? half of the pandemic? the numbers where i am living have been dogshit for a very long time.

well.... we cooked a heap of festool hand tools, a table saw, a Swedish heater............

i just finished a project in Rhode Island that employed a heap of non americans. every one brought their own tools. some of the shop infrastructure was non american. guys would burn out the motors in sanders, grinders and vacuums and we had on going failures with ovens and heaters because of that small change.

an overlooked issue is that while a transformer will easily change the voltage, it does sfa for the hertz.

maybe it was the company i was in.....

Wanda vision is ok. Spent yesterday in a vegetative coma on the couch. The wife put Netflix's 'firefly lane' on. Wasn't horrible.

i like to compare where i am to where i want to be........ new mexico has 1/3 the population of the greater toronto area, in 1/3 the area of ontario and as of yesterday new mexico has 46 946 active cases compared to 31 357 for all of canada. canada would rank as the 30th state, just ahead of maine. as far as total deaths go, canada would rank as the 8th worst state just behind illinois. we can do better.
