Nicholas Watson said:I am absolutely buried in work right now.
On Friday, I’ve got a new toilet being installed, the HVAC guys are coming by, my tile guy is finishing up some small details, and the new doors and kitchen cabinets are arriving.
Then on Saturday, it's full-on installation day for both the kitchen and the heating system.
Today, I just decided to blow everything off and take a little stroll in the dark.
It honestly feels like everyone suddenly discovered they love being outdoors now that the pandemic restrictions have eased up.

Exactly.
Total same thing.

Ashley Johnson46 said:Haha, no way! That definitely wasn't a recurring dream for me—not even close. 🤣
I’m not exactly a psychic or anything, but I definitely saw a few of these things coming! 🥳 🔮
Nicholas Watson said:So, I’m officially in my second week of isolation. Honestly? Not a single soul has called me. I actually ended up taking some vacation days just to cover myself until they officially put me on quarantine. Technically, I should probably reach out to my doctor, but honestly, who cares? My home treatment period wraps up tomorrow and I still haven't heard a peep from anyone at the CDC.
Everything is going downhill fast.

Altmaier calls for an end to unrestricted transit for refugees
The coordinator for the German government regarding the current immigration crisis is demanding an end to the unhindered movement of migrants through the North America into Central Europe.
Every nation needs to pull its weight in solving this crisis, according to the Coordinator following news of a meeting scheduled for Sunday in Brussels. "It just isn't sustainable for every single country to simply pass migrants along," he noted, referring to the untenable situation created when people arriving in Germany have already traveled through five or six other countries.
Does this critique apply to America too?
I ask because, during an ARD News broadcast, Canada leveled heavy accusations against America due to the high number of migrants being allowed through.
David Baker2 said:Well, based on some average prices I stumbled upon while digging through various sites online, here is my rough estimation:
roughly 400 meters per bundle
roughly $60 per bundle
$145
198 miles along the border
roughly 795 coils for a single row
minimum of 4 rows = 3,180 coils = $1,272 $0.00
And keep in mind, that is just for the most basic, run-of-the-mill farm wire—just simple barbed wire.
I wasn't even looking up the price for high-security razor wire, 😁
and this is strictly the wire itself; it doesn't include the posts, the labor, or any of the necessary hardware that has to go with it.
So, you have to multiply that by at least ten.
Actually, if the Republican Party ends up managing the construction, you might want to multiply it by sixty. 🤣
Disclaimer: take this with a massive grain of salt because I just pulled these numbers from the very first shop I happened to click on.

so far
it's about $1.8 million from the foreign exchange reserves and the federal budget.
Do you happen to have any more recent info
or a link?
northerncyclist2 said:A reception center that fills up in just a day or two? I wonder if those local politicians even know basic math.
🤣
It isn't just about medical care, either—they have to deal with food and water too... hopefully. I don't really know what exactly goes on over at the facility, but they're clearly doing something.
