    You're right, but that doesn't stop many people who call themselves scientists from acting that way.

    Well, this is true. And that goes back to Galileo. He was right, but only from a gut feeling, without having any actual proof yet, and was a dick about it, and THAT's why he got his dick slapped. Not for his ideas as such, but for proclaiming them to be true without being able to back it up.

    Makes me want to find a Hobby Lobby outside of Dallas and go buy some fabric and sew a mask. Just because. Jenkins is acting like a wannabe tyrant.

    Also getting really, really tired of hearing "profits" over people. Nah, it's not so much profits. It's just having enough to pay the bills, put food on the table, even break-even. That's not a profit you fool.

    Stepdaughter just called.
    Had a curbside order at the vape shop.
    When she got there, a bunch of cops were outside shutting him down.
    He wasn't essential.

    He met her at Walmart parking lot as he had her order ready.

    I don't give a sh!t whether you stay at home or not. Just stay the fu@k away from me and mine. Play stupid games; win stupid prizes. We'll pray for you, hope the best for you, and grieve for those who lose the bet. We can argue about the severity but not the reality of the situation.
    So does "play stupid games...." apply to just people trying to enter your home (completely understandable) or anyone coming within 6' of you if you are out and about?

    Just curious what you are going to do to give away these prizes while outside your home.

    I think you'd have an uphill battle with a self defense arguement because some old lady at Walmart came in your comfort zone and you shot her.

    Just an observation but you may be getting almost as wordy as the one I blocked you are replying to.
    Not even close. I just tend to not like people that think they are smarter than anyone else because of their education or vocation. I have 1 degree. And enough credits for 21/2 more from the same college. And the most important thing I learned was how little I still knew. Too many educated people think they are smart. They are not. He is not.
    Most times I try not to get "wordy", but, hey, I'm human. I at least try not to be condescending when I do. Or tell others how or what they should be. I can be a jerk at times, but, unlike him, I at least try to be a nice jerk sometimes.
    I don't have anyone on ignore. He makes me feel better about my own stupidity sometimes. But if you want to ignore me, feel free. Anyone that wants to, go ahead. I have been ignore by many others in 63 years. Why stop now.

    If you pay attention to how most of the people in charge answer questions there is one thing evident fairly quick.
    They still don't know much more than they did a month ago.
    Most of the models are based on worse case scenarios and guesses, not hard evidence because they don't KNOW. Just like the climate models the last 100 years or so. Lacking a reliable test for everyone, they can only guess at any outcome.
    Too many years of "everyone is a winner". Nobody wants to be the one that someone can say " you failed us".

    I'll stop being wordy now......

    Did you ever try the beet powder? The natural grocer next door had some for pretty cheap so I decided to try it. It has dropped my bp. Mind you, I don't have a research paper to prove it but I do have my bp monitor logs.

    I did, and am still using it.

    I don't have a "before" reading off my home BP machine, but according to what my last visit to the dr., which was about a week before I started the beet powder, it made a significant difference according to my home device.


    ETA: changed beer to beet.

    Didn't say that. Not even close. Reading comprehension fades in the face of righteous indignation. In fact, I said the opposite. Do what you will.

    Lack of information is not absolution. There is a risk. not understanding the risk is no excuse for dismissing it. I am choosing to be prudent.
    Want to talk about reading comprehension... you should have picked out the sarcasm.

    Beer comes in powdered form? Where'd you get it?
