One thing that occurred to me recently is....they have never been able to produce a vaccine for HIV. So...just playing the what if game.....what if...they can't produce one for this either? Just fucking chilling to even think about.

Thought I read somewhere that they were lifting scholarship requirements to accommodate incoming Freshmen.
Now, the Governor has closed on the boat landings. That may not seem like a big deal but when it's just two of us that wanted to go fishing today?
The governor did this? You got a link or anything, I cant find any info?
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Governor Henry McMaster today issued Executive Order 2020-16, which orders the closure of all public access points to the state’s beaches, as well as closure of all public boat ramps, landings and other access points on the state's lakes, rivers and waterways.
“As a result of behavior observed this past weekend by the Department of Natural Resources and SLED, it has become necessary to close public access to our state’s beaches, and to close boat ramps and landings on our state’s lakes, rivers and waterways,” said Gov. Henry McMaster. “This is unfortunate for those who chose to responsibly follow the instructions of our public health officials, but it is a necessary action to prevent the spread of this dangerous virus.”
A few years ago the NCAA dropped an additional 200 million to D1 schools SAF's. That was in addition to the 500 million annually dispersed. The article is probably pretty easy to find: circa 2016-2017.I believe there is a limit on how much a school can get.
I don't know how they'll disperse now with the kids on B-ball revenue from CBS.
Worth following...
“This Section does not apply to individuals possessing a current, valid commercial fishing license or permit to the extent such individuals may seek to utilize or rely upon public piers, docks, wharfs, boat ramps, or boat landings in connection with commercial fishing activities,” the governor’s order reads.If you have a boat already docked in a waterway, are you prohibited from leaving its mooring?

Regretfully, impeaching the POTUS was more important![]()
He was acquitted on Feb. 5. Late Feb. he was briefed on how severe it was going to be, the next day he held a held a big party with a ton of people at his golf club and spent the weekend hanging out and golfing. For the next three weeks he went around telling everyone that was no big deal, "that it would just go away" and that it was no problem to just go about your daily life. The "we were too buys impeaching a corrupt president" line is going to be the "get out of jail free" card here but it is a load of horseshit. Just like his "we inherited bad testing" from Obama is a horseshit excuse.
