My favorite video is Nancy without a mask walking into a shut down salon to get her hair done. With her money she could have someone come to her house. They don’t care about optics anymore. Otherwise the riots would have stopped. It’s now been two weeks since our trip to Myrtle beach. Lots of people interaction. The whole family 16 of us are just peachy.

I’m wondering. Remember H1-N1? Mass hysteria? Stock Market going crazy? Who’s going to make money? Who’s pushing the most hysteria?

I work in a gov't office in a secret underground undisclosed location, as they say.  No, really.  We received a briefing from an epidemiologist in Washington State.  He said that if you put someone in

I cannot stand that old hag. Shame on CA for keeping her in office for so long.

I'm tired of mass hysteria over the coronavirus, I want a normal life back.

It’s coming back. The virus will be a faded memory by November. Have you noticed no one in Trumps administration is wearing masks anymore? They’re doing press conferences left and right. They know the gig is up especially since the CDC just updated the death count from Covid only numbers.

Yes, I just read about that on Herman Cain's Twitter account.

I believe I understand the November date to have something to do with the American presidential election but what about the rest of the world?  There are many who struggle with taking the necessary steps to combat the spread of this virus until it hits someone they love.  I understand the frustration but getting angry at the spread will not reduce the impact.  Some are putting an inordinate amount of effort into finding faults in others perhaps in order to somehow excuse themselves from individual responsibility.    Proper hygiene, keeping social distance, and wearing face coverings when necessary are effortless habits with widespread positive results.    This is common sense and works for no matter what your political beliefs.

Yeah a little strange they would post that. I wonder if Mr. Cain had any other known health issues.

If I’m not mistaken, America still claims to have the highest number of known cases and supposed deaths. We’re also the only country still flipping out about sending our kids back to school. That’s your choice to keep buying what they’re selling.

The worries about school are pretty universal.  I'm not sure about the buying what their selling part of your comment.  There is enough information available to cause me to do what I can to protect myself and others.  Mine is not a political choice.  Taking personal responsibility to keep my germs/bodily fluids away from others does not require the approval of another person but I question why anyone would choose not to take the precautions to protect others.

I absolutely agree you should maintain proper hygiene and not cough/sneeze in other people’s faces. I rarely leave the house but when I do, I wear a mask where it’s required. My main point is I’m not going to stop living for fear of dying. People have been disgusting long before this virus came around. 

My wife is a health care provider so she’s been around it first hand. I don’t doubt it’s real and wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve already had it. I just don’t believe it is nearly as dangerous as they were hoping it would be.

I’ve been wondering for awhile now what happens if we are very good at a germ free environment. A vaccine comes along and we’re given the all clear. Then we lost our immunity’s to other bugs. We are learning how to treat and who’s effected by this bug. We already have treatments some have been around since the start. My area is almost normal has been for months. Hospitals never got near capacity. Contrast that with California. What is the deal? I feel sorry for the people that can’t escape the (blue) ruled dictatorship. Normalcies returns to the red.

I would consider this just good common sense to protect yourself when the truth can not be know fully. We know what can not be hidden nor spun. It is real. It kills some. Be wise. Its a start.

In just a few short months the govt just told us how to fear our neighbor, use a card instead of cash(coin shortage, yeah right), tell you where you could go, restructured public schools, etc. What does this sound like to you

Yea................normal....................what would that look like?

 

Back to:

 

Hurricanes. Earthquakes. Fire. Flood. Volcanic eruption.  Global warming. 43% of the earth without running water. 10% starving to death. About an 1/8th of the world can't read or write. 49 armed conflicts in the world. Long list of incurable diseases. Covid is just the latest flavor. No part of the world is untouched by violence. Death touches everyone eventually. Governmental corruption. Judicial corruption. Racism. 

 

These are the things government is suppose to protect it's subjects from. It has gone on for thousands of years and continues to get worse. And people still believe they are one good candidate from utopia? All men fail miserably! 

 

That  normal?

It’s a big planet with a lot going on. Live your life, focus on what’s in front of you and quit paying attention to the media. Why live your life in fear of what may become.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.

      Looking for this part for my truck. They don't sell just that one piece and to get it you have to pay over $100 even used for the whole air tube. The piece the hose clamp snaps into that is held on by the screw and nut. If anyone has access to one please let me know.
