I was just thinking in terms of crappy Detroit compacts, but yeah. I suppose the Maverick replaced the Falcon as Ford's car to compete with the Nova and the Dart/Valiant

The ailments are complicated. That doesn't necessarily mean the patient is.

The witch doctor doesn't get what's going on with my disease, and yet I'm a very pleasant patient.

I provided documentary evidence when I made that assertion. Where's yours?

Questioning omniscience.

Speaking of covid my younger brother got Covid as of today. His wife, as you might remember, had it a a week or so ago. She went back to work Tuesday. That time-line sounds sketchy.

My older brother is still recovering from his prostate surgery. They opened him up from the stomach. He he has an incision from his Johnson up 8 inches to his belly area. the worst part is the catheter.

Meanwhile I'm the same which is to say...

Those things are chronic conditions. COVID is an acute illness.

Both MM and diabetes increase your chances of dying of it, if infected.

I do ask questions, but no omniscience available to question in said interactions.

The patient was on the precipice and covid pushed him/her over the edge. Probably aged as well. Sad nonetheless.

24 miles of gravel today. Spotted a yote and a rattler. Took an alternate route on the way back to avoid the latter.

No, not necessarily. 5 year survival rates for MM are > 50%, and of course people live with diabetes for decades. Those conditions seem to make COVID worse.

the visit was pleasant when it was over.:lol::cry:
But I have to admit this is convincing proof;it was my pleasure to see this gentleman today. Wow that's laying it on thick.

Just like another great American, I cannot tell a lie, our meet up this summer was pleasant. There I said it.

Daughter threw up at dinner.

And just like that the clouds parted and she was healed.

Now I can’t get her to go to sleep. lol
