This seems to be the consensus lately of many of the experts. Nonetheless I'm going to do everything I reasonably can to be the exception. I don't want that thing, period

I'm fortunate that I'm retired and don't really have to leave the house much, other than the occasional trip to the supermarket and a dentist appointment coming soon. I feel for you folks that have to be out and about amongst the negligent and the ignorant every day. :(

How old are you here? And who took the picture?

Before you proceed, spill a bucket of water on the floor where you'll be kneeling. Why go half way? :thumb:

Be careful, spouses under duress have been known to lash out with vicious straight rights.

Go big. I suggest playing with the wall socket behind the electric dryer.

I just head to the office in those moments, and the door doesn't hit me in the ass as I do so.

Straight rights? This ain't P&R, pal!

Just for the hell of it, mix some epsom salts in the water first. Tell your bandleader you're the new conductor.

My wife and I are both straight so such things don't bother us.

There is a segment of Jeepers that name their cars, and write the name on a rubber duck. They keep a stock of the ducks inside the Jeep, and when they meet another Jeeper they exchange ducks. They display the ducks from other Jeepers on their dash board. It's weird.

No, I don't do that, but my wife got a duck from another Jeeper that we met at a lunch place a few years ago. It does not reside on the dash of our Jeep.

You might enjoy this.

So yesterday's ride had a start temp of about 24 and end temp around 32. It was chilly but still a ton of fun.

For Saturday, they are predicting temps about 10-15 degrees F lower, so start temp about 14 (windchills 1F) and end temp around 18 (windchill 7F). I am not sure if I have enough HTFU left for that.

So this morning I had wool socks on, castelli toe thingys, bontrager booties, and then endura neoprene over shoes and my feet still started to get cold near the end.

Today it wasn’t even that cold.

I was wondering the same but at the end he says Doritos is one of his sponsors.
I wonder how long until they are all sold.

Well I've stalled as long as I can. I have no choice but to head uptown. I get to go by bike, so there's that.

There are neural control loops between immune organs, e.g., the spleen, and tissues, e.g., joint capsules, and the spinal cord, which influence local immune and inflammatory responses.

These mechanisms have been largely neglected by immunologists and rheumatologists because it's easier simply to flood the system with anti-inflammatory drugs or antibodies and block inflammation in the target tissues. It's not clear how clinically important these neural control systems are, but they might be a big deal.

I thought the vagal reflex could be used for some people to stop A Fib, which I have. Remember, this is me.

I agree as a layman. Maybe we (society) should stop ragging on the anti Vax and mask people now. With Omicron it just doesn't matter.

I'm boosted so I'm good. :thumb:

Probably won't. My limit these days is about 20F. Maybe a smidge lower if sunny and calm. Saturday will be windy and cloudy.

It does matter, though. Vaxxed people can expect a bad cold and very low risk of hospitalization. Unvaxxed still have a much higher rate of hospitalization. But lucky for them, a much higher rate is still relatively low.
