This is a change of 95 additional cases from the last update, of cases statewide. That number was 188.

Case number discrepancies are starting to emerge as some of those suspected positive, but proven otherwise, are dropped from the count. I am using the higher numbers until the counts are otherwise adjusted.

Reported range today is from 184 to 283 cases.

Handwashing Tips, short video

This is a different technique than the one I learned as a health care provider.

Maybe others could post their examples here.

Washing your hands is one of the most important things you can do to protect yourself and others from illness. Here’s the technique experts say is best.

Are you a lawyer? If so I'd love to know

The difference between voluntary and other types of manslaughter. He's certainly guilty of nefarious acts.

He's a psychopath. We should expect pain, abuse and suffering. It's what they do.

He's really in his element because what could cause more pain and suffering than a deadly pandemic?

He barely has to lift a finger to exercise his psychopathic tendencies.

He literally has to just do nothing and he's all set, mission accomplished.

Act One O'Leary Car Ride, show tunes

https://m.
&feature=youtu.be

This teen’s performance in the passenger seat of his mom’s car is worthy of Broadway
Watch him flamboyantly lip synch along with more than two dozen Broadway hits, from Hamilton to Rocky Horror. Watch her ignore him completely.

By Gwendolyn Smith Friday, December 21, 2018 93 Comments

Move over James Corden, because you have a brilliant “Carpool Karaoke” challenger in Colin O’Leary.

O’Leary took to the passenger seat of his mother’s car to lip synch along with more than two dozen Broadway hits, from Hamilton to Rocky Horror, and a total of eight clips from Phantom of the Opera alone.

Not content to just belt out Broadway, O’Leary brings his own inventive costuming, makeup, and even props to the party: you’ll never see The Lion King in quite the same way after seeing how he reimagines the humble giraffe!

As an extra bonus, catch a glimpse at his mom’s stone-faced reactions to both O’Leary and everyone else on the road.

About littlemissmartypants

I read voraciously and fast with high comprehension. I love to learn and share. But I will never, ever post anything in LBN again because someone always seems to find fault with my posts. I've had too many locked for stupid reasons to ever take LBN seriously ever again. I now just trash it. Which is a shame since there are individuals who are regular posters there that I love. I just send all not truly LBN and LBN dupes to the Trash from now on. No need to even bother any hosts with those anymore. Using Ignore and Trash are proving to be much easier and better options for me than trying to engage and attempt to make LBN a better place. I'm also getting tired of this place looking like the Trump Underground. Trashing every iteration of the surname and all of the clever nicknames people have created make it virtually impossible not to see posts about the psychopath that is the Republican party's preferred presidential candidate. Oh, well. GOTV!
