When was the last time someone pitched you a curve like this one? Grade School? This one in blue is the latest from Michigan's Governor Gretchen Whitmer, bearing a message that sounds like something from the Michigan edition of Highlights for Children, bringing me back to the bulletin boards of my youth and my fourth grade teacher who'd issue random "F.F.O.F" orders (Feet Flat on Floor) throughout the day to snap us to attention and keep us off our toes. The bulletin boards were covered in colored construction paper with hand cut letters (punched out letters in later years) tacked on to spell out a meaningful, character building message. Each display would remain up for a month or two (most likely because they weren't easy to assemble), allowing more than enough time for a classroom of impressionable youths with big eyes to regard and take it to heart while the paper faded.
Prior to this declaration in blue, Whitmer's State of the State Dress served as a call for attention along with the two most recent bulletin board style T-shirts she's worn bearing messages short enough to fit on the front, with "Everyone VS. Covid 19" on one and "That Woman from Michigan" on another.
Last night Tucker Carlson took her and the arrogant foolishness she's been promoting as "science" to task during prime time (at the 12:22 mark) and Glenn R dropped a "dumb as a bag of hammers" reference which could work well on the back of a T-shirt if she decides to put the one size fits all stretching of truth regarding Michiganders on the front.
Something weird about her. You look at a photo of her and ">she looks like something out of a horror movie, very cold, even if she's "smiling". It's as if somebody had to tell her how to do it.
Other than that, nice built; good curves, great rack.
This idiot governor is a prime example of what you get when a liberal gets power. De Blasio is another. They are not just inept. They are dangerous.
De Blasio threatened to permanently close any church that opened up during this bogus crisis. Unfortunately we do not have any real leaders who would open to defy him. If the useless Cardinal Dolan had any balls he would open St Patrick's Cathedral and dare him to arrest him. But he is just going to ignore it just as he did when the homosexual priests he protects cornholes alter boys.
They just can't help themselves. Versions of this are occurring everywhere. The parks and hiking trails near me are closed because, uh, people drive there, er, alone in their cars, but, uh, leave their houses, and, er, might encounter other people outside their houses, and, er, um, BECAUSE I SAID SO. It's the law!!
But it's an executive order, not a law. And the stated emergency supporting the executive order, the shortage of emergency medical treatments, staffing and beds, is clearly no longer present.
Details, details. We must stay indoors until a cure is found! SAFETY FIRST.
I see the good citizens of Michigan are going to protest tomorrow w/ Operation Gridlock in Lansing. Civil disobedience will sprout around the country like tulips.
Did you attend, Sixty? My license tag celebrates the Declaration of Mecklenburg, and I'm proud that NC appears to be the first once again in standing up to tyranny. I hadn't heard anything about this protest until the news today. If that was impromptu, that was pretty good attendance.
I did not - I tend to be a homebody and lord knows I really don't want to come to the attention of the local authorities just yet. Keepin' my powder dry, as it were.
Around here we had the War of Regulation, 1765-1771. Wiki says "Bassett interprets the events of the late 1760s in Orange and surrounding counties as "...a peasants' rising, a popular upheaval." There are plaques commemorating the Regulators in various places in the area, and I like to live near historically relevant places - reminds me not to become complacent.
The Regulator Movement. I recall a professor who drilled into our heads the concept that the US has always had a North/South tension in play, but often overlooked is the East/West tension. The Regulators grew out of that. In NC it was more of a corruption thing than in the North, where the frontiersmen were dissatisfied with protection, but it was still an East/West thing. The battle at Alamance Creek and the Black Boys of Cabarrus and all that. Not much happened out here in the Revolutionary or Civil Wars, but the sites and events down east are much more plentiful and interesting.
I'm ready to be done with this nonsense. If you're sick or at risk, stay home. If you're worried about getting sick, don't accept visitors. Otherwise, carry on.
It's time to get this economy going. It's like a race horse behind the starting gates, pawing at the ground. Let's see how much ground we can recover.
I hear ya, windbag. That was an interesting conflict and since I didn't grow up here I didn't understand just what was going on. But to hell with the Crown and all that rot - that is a sentiment I can get behind any day of the week.
And edutcher - shame on you. Exploiting that poor tranny like that! Now send some eye bleach.
As every smart and sciencey Michigander knows, when you're in way over your head, keep shoveling!
Whitmer, who did not respond to requests for comment, defended the shutdown on the Today Show Wednesday, saying that the activities restricted by the order are already curtailed by recent snowfall.
"The fact that we're cracking down on people traveling between homes, or planting, or landscaping, or golfing, really for a couple more weeks isn't going to meaningfully impact people's ability to do it because the snow will do it in and of itself," she said.

I don't mean to jump to conclusions here, but I am getting the sense you don't have a lot of respect for that woman. Where is she from again?

Half Whitmer.
Never heard the phrase "keep us off our toes;" It's a turnaround of "keep us on our toes." It works, though.

It is already happening over in Capital City.

The image I was trying to link. Tell me if she doesn't look like Vampiras's evil Mother-In-Law.

Eye bleach, but watch out for a couple of motes.

Now, its the SNOW!
