Distributed via Pharmacies..etc. up to 3 per person. Something tells me the law of unintended consequences is going to occur. I guess the word “intended” could be used depending on how skeptical one might be. Last Edited by Guythu on 01/19/2022 09:49 PM |

It’s a time game at this point. Can we throw enough logs on the fire to keep the beasts and monsters away through the night. Only to have to gather more in the morning to make it through the next night. At some point something is going to dip below the breaking point deep enough that it won’t or can’t come back online and it’ll ripple the other systems as well which will in turn cause something else to dip. We’ll reach a point where we can’t fix and gather fast enough to make it through the next wave. How broken are we right now? 10% ? 25% ? More? |

User ID: 81069558 United States 01/20/2022 05:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Spain floating the idea about following the UK. And we’re back to it being the flu or measles. Spain: illness that is here to stay. The idea is to move from crisis mode to control mode, approaching the virus in much the same way countries deal with flu or measles. That means accepting that infections will occur and providing extra care for at-risk people and patients with complications. The public also needs to come to terms with the idea that some deaths from Covid “will be inevitable,” Tranche said. “We can’t do on the sixth wave what we were doing on the first one: The model needs to change if we want to achieve different results,” he said.

Forum Administrator 01/20/2022 09:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Intel from our little bubble. The explosion of COVID in our town has been traced back to one 20 year old guy. Came back into town for school. Feeling sniffly, but hey, he's 20 and consequences be damned. Went out to a busy sports bar. Screamed his head off at a football game or two. Gave COVID to damn near everyone in the place. It exponentiated from there. I guess it really matters not. If it were not him, it would have been another undergrad with low impulse control.

User ID: 81475350 Italy 01/20/2022 01:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Folks, take care of your vehicles. Quoting: Guythu Got a friend with a shop. The demand for repairs needed is skyrocketing. The delay for parts is doing the same. It’s insane... just insane. If this same stuff is happening in the utilities sector then we’re hanging by a thread. Good advice. I had my Jeep serviced back in September, and the autoport on base didn't have any cabin air filters. I ordered a couple from AutoZone, then got the maintenance manual out and ordered all the filters, parts, belts, etc, for the next five years. It's our only car, so I thought I should prep for it. Lol. First tell the truth, then give your opinion.... |

Storm was a bust for us. Kind of thought it would be, but I was hoping for some snow to stick a couple of days. I wanted to make a snowman in the yard and send the pics/vid to the grands. It's mostly melted already. We only got 3-4 inches. |

When they were more scarce I would use the same one for a month... but I only used it for 5-20 minutes at a time when going into stores or other sketchy scenarios and would store it very carefully. For someone out in a forward facing job dealing with the public, wearing one 8 hours a day... I can't imagine it would be healthy to use the same one more than a couple of days. |
