It doesn’t hold the same connotations here in Australia, Dave.

I cringed when I read it though.

I was kidding - old school cricket joke.

But if I can be an Aussie why can't a Pakistani be a Paki? I really don't see the difference.

It has a history in the UK and Ireland as a racial slur, comparable to 'Abo' as used towards Aborigines in Aus.

This I didn't know, even though I was a fan of numerous 1970's British sit-coms!

I apologise and will remove the term from my vocab.

Carry on.

The new restrictions, to take effect Monday and to stay in place at least until Dec. 20, will prohibit public and private gatherings except for those people already living together. Religious services and protests will be exempted.

It took us longer than I thought to break 200,000 cases in a day. Probably the Thanksgiving backlog.

Checking again early next week!
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
