Here we go again, A new variant to scare the Populus with, Omicron

[Carpediem44DB]

How many trillions will Biden suggest we need to spend on mitigation of the effects of Omicron? As I am writing this, I just saw a report that Biden is halting travel from SA as well as 7 other countries except for returning citizens. A pleasant surprise from this Administration, I was expecting them to drag their feet to let the variant land here and take hold giving them justification for more draconian mandates. This will be interesting to see how it plays out. The stock market pulled back on the news but we will see on Monday if that was not just another reason for taking short term winnings off the table or the beginning of a deeper correction.
Thanks again Chiner for the gift that keeps on giving!

omicron is an anagram for moronic. Go figure.

in my opinion it will always be here, just like the common cold or flu. We intend to carry on regardless. There is alot of stuff that kill a fella. when my feet hits the floor in the morning I am thankful and always have been.

The seasonal flu virus is an annual variant. The vaccines become available late in the year to allow research testing to uncover the strain. It doesn’t work. By the time the flu shots are produced and released to market the virus strain has yet to be identified.
This is one of several reasons flu vaccines don’t work. It’s for the wrong virus.

The same will happen w Corona virus. It will mutate on a constant basis thus the “vaccines” will also have to evolve as well.

This is why there will never be any such thing as a “vaccinated” person.

It will be “… are you currently vaccinated against xyz variant?…”

It will never end.

RBB, I'm in that same boat. I'll have this cancer crap till the day it kills me, but between now and then I'm enjoying the hell outa life.

This past summer we sold Beachcomber. Prior to that I'd been a participant in the Christmas Lighted Boat Parade for over 20 years. Tonight we watched it from the bank and for the first time I realized just how pretty the boats are when they're all decorated. I also realized just how special those decorated boats made this day. It really IS nice to stop and smell the roses.

Here's what we looked like in the last parade. We took first place for the best decorated boat.

That is Beautifull, must have had mixed feelings watching.

5 years clean now, disfigured, but make every day count. My perspective has changed dramatically. And I don't buy any of the Covid crap after the cancer. Screw your variants, we have been killing our country with this crap for nigh on three years now. All bullshit.

You made me think of my brother. He had melanoma, his goose was cooked. I went to spend a few days at his place, just hanging out. One morning I woke up just as it was turning daylight, the birds were singing like crazy. I looked out the window and he was sitting on the top of the picnic table feet on the seat, sipping a cup of coffee.

I went out and sat on the table too, next to him, I didn't say a thing. The sun came up bright, blue sky with bright white puffy clouds. He was just looking and listening. After a while he said 'it sure is pretty isn't it'.
