    Per capita or percent daily increase? I’m looking at Worldometers and they have Cali ahead by a long shot, but they don’t give daily positives/capita or a breakdown of every state’s daily.

    Biking up the hills in Lisbon was quite the pain in the ass on a regular bike.

    Yeah, that city is hilly as fuck. Basically if San Francisco and New Orleans had a baby it’d be Lisbon.

    How is that awful? You have the hilly, rolling streets of San Francisco and the walking party of New Orleans. Plus cheap, really good wine.

    I read a couple weeks back that bike shops are doing a killing

    One near me was supposed to be undergoing a seismic retrofit and decided to just say fuck it and delay it to stay open

    Yeah, it's really cool. Went last February and had a blast. Lot of small bars (like the kitchen of a one-bedroom apartment small) where you could walk in, get a drink and then walk the streets. But yeah, I couldn't imagine biking there (or in San Francisco) without being Lance Armstrong. They have cable cars to go up and down the big hills and escalators on some of the really steep walking paths. Of course, you feel like a wuss taking the escalator when you see an old woman on the stairs next to you hoofing it carrying her groceries.

    Only annoying thing was the amount of panhandlers/street salesmen. Went with a buddy (who is Indian) and when we'd walk around down I'd get accosted by peddlers selling cocaine, weed, hookers, sunglasses, etc., while they left him alone. It got to be pretty funny after a while.

    We considered moving to Lisbon for like half an hour after we came back from a 15 day Portugal trip. Beautiful, fun and comparatively cheap.

    Clearly, because that was one of the worst takes I've seen in a while (probably a day or so). As for the weather, it was low 60s and sunny in the winter, very LA-ish. Definitely a more California climate than a Southern one.

    Did you read the article? Only reason for the "surprise" part is the first sentence below

    "Economists expected the unemployment rate to be even worse in May, rising to nearly 20%. But the gradual reopening of the economy actually added new jobs rather than eliminating further positions."
