Are you going to church or is anyone who reads this going to church?  How much are you getting out of your house?  Anyone?

@Victoria33

I am out most every day just like normal, just not going to town very much. Did go to church, I guess it was last week, the Cowboy Church held a campfire service, which is just my style. I'll be going there till his whole thing is over I reckon. But anyhow, it's all about the same, just no town, which would not factor in very much anyway. If I could have got to my bank and got some money out, I probably wouldn't even known the difference.

If the government is so tight-ass crazy concerned over my health, then why did they allow selling alcohol, cigarettes, and opioid painkillers, during the lockdown?

These kill more people every year than COVID could even dream of.
If it was about health, then why did NY load up Nursing Homes with COVID positive patients

The answer is because ultimately this is not about 'health'. It is about control.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

You are right. Good point. However, they are kind-of contagious. Children learn from parents, and the peer pressure issue. But yes, these are not contagious in the sense of a virus.

One of the hardest things for America and most Americans to do will be to pull up their pants and realize they've been had. When it happens, though, they're gonna be pissed.
You realize, of course, they will go gunning for the very people who tried to tell them--in fact, some already are.

Yup I’ve noticed that happening already.

That is exactly why the Democrats are so fanatically desperate to increase the death count at any cost no matter what the actual cause of death was. So they can then point to that fake number and say, "See! We saved your life!" At this point, I think the whole thing was massive Kabuki Theater over a minor threat.

I could see the big STUPID coming a long time go. I haven't stopped working. Back in late Feb. I was driving home from work, county road. This woman comes outside to play with her kid. They were wearing masks. There wasn't another house for at least a mile. Ridiculous. I don't/haven't/won't wear a mask.

They have been putting up plexiglas shields in all the stores, at the registers. Whoever is doing that is making a killing right now.

Avoiding Risks During Reopening

Fascinating study of how the Coronavirus has spread (factually) and how to avoid the risks of being in the same situation.  Remembering that many, many people are asymptomatic (and in these particular cases were not showing any signs of the disease), it's good to know what situations to avoid, and which are less risky.

For example, being in an enclosed indoor space (even with social distancing) is much riskier than being together outside.

The article lists some risky situations based on where the disease actually spread.  Especially interesting to me was the tragic choir rehearsal in Washington, where precautions were taken to keep people safe, yet 45 of 60 people in the choir got sick and two died....

Good reason for churches NOT to have choir practice.  The infected person was asymptomatic and precautions were taken and yet.....



The restaurant example from China is particularly revealing because some people near the (asymptomatic) infected person did not get sick because of the air flow, but many others did.... (diagram in article)

It's critical that we continue to open up the economy, but it's also important that we understand how to keep as safe as possible.

For those interested, it's a good read.

It is a good read.

However, it should be noted that there are dangers from being together outside, especially when tightly packed together with no social distancing and no masks.

The check out procedure Traders Joes has implemented is hilarious - every other register has been closed. The clerk pulls your cart forward and empties it while you wait about ten feet away behind a taped line. After ringing up the purchases he steps back until he's up against the closed register. Only then are you supposed to approach to pay for your stuff. From behind a plastic screen and with a mask on, of course. Its all pretty dramatic.

@Victoria33

We have been going out for groceries every week or two, have always found what we needed (TP didn't show up until yesterday, but we already had plenty).  There really aren't very many places to go out to, the Casinos across the River are still closed up.  I go start my car and idle it every several days to keep the battery from dying.

We're planning a little break Friday...The Riverside Hotel in Laughlin has opened the reservation desk, so we reserved Friday night so we can have one night away from the catz.  That's their firsts night open in a couple of months, so it will be interesting.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16

Just realized I haven't wore a collared shirt or long pants in 2 1/2 months.  (A postive of the new normal)

That sounds like fun @Cyber Liberty ... 👍😊.  But consider if you would, a Jeep with a roof-top tent and the whole world would have been your oyster this whole time  :beer:

@Cyber Liberty
You're not going 'on vacation' at all. You are just hopping the river to play at the casino (for one night). LOL At least make it the whole weekend. I would. If you can see your 'vacation' from your house, is it really a vacation in the normal sense of the word? You could take an uber and be there 10 minutes.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Well, it takes a bit longer than 10 minutes to go down the foothills to the river, and my ears pop a couple of times on the way.  It's more to show support for the good folks at the Hotel who have been thrown out of work the past couple of months.  But I expect the Casino won't be open yet, so there's that.

Yeah, a night is just the right size of a break.  The Castle as cage is gilded, but it's still a cage.
