Re: Coronavirus Thread. Virus v humans
Suppliers usually prioritise their higher margins sales when supply is constricted , Or those who ordered first. Raiding a facility is a bit crazy tbf and hardly seems to speed up anyone getting their vaccine. Astra can supply who they want from where they want surely? Why is the Belgian plant fail...

The pump and dump aspect would be interesting, pointing out to a public forum , public information that a stock was 140% short. The short is the reason for the squeeze and nothing to do with retail investors. Possibly. It would of course depend on lots of factors but if the person who supposedly ma...

Re: Spam and eggs
Take a tin of spam, chop it up and then fry it with some oil, garlic and onions, perhaps a few diced peppers. Add a hint of tabasco sauce and then gently transfer it to the waste bin and eat something else.
