Corona virus

Quote from Semigoodlooking

From what I understand (I have some family and friends working in the TV industry here, Fox, Disney, Nat Geo, and TyC Sports. I discussed this guy with them as he always makes me laugh because he looks like he just rolled out of bed after a night of class A drugs and booze and drove straight to work. It seems he is very respected at the channel. I don't watch the news here a lot so I can't speak to whether he justifies that respect, but I presume not.

I think he is well respected for some investigative journalism he did early in his career. I think he is a poor studio presenter . I have seen him do a couple of things outside the studio and he seems to be a bit better at getting the point across standing up outside the glare of the studio lights

Quote from GlasgowJohn

No tie is always better if you cant button your collar.

Thank goodness I don't have to wear a tie....the shirt sizes here all over the place.

I remember a few years back a wealthy acquaintance who lived in Pto Madero told me he never wore a tie as kidnappers thought it was a sign of wealth.

Yes I keep telling the missus that's why I dress like a scruff and leave the birthday present Rolex at home when I go out.

Very smart!

we know someone who wore a $9 fake Rolex that was grabbed off her arm at the San Telmo Sunday market. She was lucky not to be dragged down the street - and for a fake!

Just asking for trouble....I have an inexpensive Seiko watch which could be mistaken for being worth a lot of money. I never wear it as it sticks out a mile.

We don’t even wear watches anymore. Just rubber fitness trackers, which give the time just fine.

We used to have a better class of thief in Argentina . God knows what they are teaching the young hoodlums nowadays.

Haven't a bleedin' clue what one of them is. No need anyway....despite smoking like a lum, eating all the wrong things and lazing aout as much as possible I'm still a fine figure of a man......which makes the missus mad. She's always eating rabbit food yet has recently put on a couple of kilos.

Fitness trackers, unfortunately, don’t prevent weight gain. If they did, I’d gladly wear 20 of them on one arm! They simply keep track of daily efforts toward cardiovascular fitness: steps taken, stairs climbed, blood pressure, hours of sleep, etc. The first one I had could even be set to buzz me if in the past hour I hadn’t gotten up from the computer to move around a bit. I miss that feature!

I wouldn't trust one if it's Made in China!!

The one I have now seems to have been made in Hell, not China!

Not that wives don’t say these things as well, eh, GlasgowJohn ?

Mine is always telling me I smoke and drink too much...then there's also my diet. This afternoon she's making spinach things. Which not only contain parmesan cheese and flour she deep fries them as well!!

Oh man, those spinach things sound high-calorie but delicious, UK Man .
