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.

WOW, some people’s glass is 1/2 empty. My area is joyful and peaceful. I do my fair share to help the less fortunate. I suffer no fools. I cut back on the news. I watch enough to know where not to travel. I’m where I’m going to be before dark. I don’t carry yet, I’m thinking about it. My glass is half full.

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

Interesting choice of words for something that is already reality, don't you think? I mean that list isn't what may become. It is what is...now....closing ones eyes doesn't not make it go away. But yea, we all have options. Eye's wide shut is one. Serious. Not being cute. Lot's of people really like that option. For example....

 

I think of Noah when a topic like this is discussed. An entire world chose not to "live your life in a fear and what may become".  They considered the reality he preached to be a joke. Rain? Until that day it had never rained on the earth.

 

What I really want to know is; when did they take it serious? 

 

Water to the ankles? Waist? Chest deep? When the few had made it to the highest mountain? Perhaps some denied with their last breath. I am certainly curious about that. Yes indeed...curious ? 

 

Anyway....have a nice day.

Yeah, don’t waste your time. The CNN-force is much too strong with this one.
 

When you’re programmed to think the world is ending in 12 years, everyone is a racist, and COVID is going to kill you, this is what you get. Miserable people and kids taking to the streets to burn everything.

 

Here’s some interesting stats to bounce off of the lockdown lover’s heads. I feel like a few of us here said this would be the cause about 6 months ago.

KEY POINTS
  • White House coronavirus advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci confirmed on Tuesday that more than 180,000 people in the U.S. have died from Covid-19. 
  • Fauci’s comments come after some have claimed a new CDC update indicates only 6% of the nation’s total reported Covid-19 deaths were actually from the virus, and the remaining percent died of “other serious illnesses.” 
  • At least 183,600 people have died from Covid-19 in the U.S. as of Tuesday, accounting for just over 21% of the globe’s total reported deaths.

Well yeah, it’s obvious that some of the people who have died, even having other serious conditions, would still be alive without COVID. I never took the report to specifically mean that 94% of the COVID deaths were fake. It casts some doubt on a number of them, but anyone knows that COVID certainly can turn your 6 months to live into 6 days, and so on. 
 

What I did take of that report was that we should use that data to by hyper-focused in protecting only the people who need protecting. We are talking about a very specific subset of the population who should be concerned. And a vast majority who should be back to normal in order to fund the at-risk sitting this one out. Maybe even obtaining some herd immunity in the process as has already happened in certain areas.
 

Blanket restrictions on everyone’s lives makes absolutely no common sense in light of the data we have. All it results in is vast non-compliance, depression and unrest. I didn’t expect Grump or the experts to understand that on February 1st, but I did expect everyone to understand it on September 1st.

Some people want control. Even after there’s little difference between lock down states and semi open states as far as infection. Blue verses red. Control and freedom. For our own good. Where have I heard that before? Cuba, Venezuela perhaps?

Think it’s behind a paywall on the WSJ but this article says as much:
 

https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-failed-experiment-of-covid-lockdowns-11599000890?mod=mhp

 

D56A16DB-738F-469C-81D7-F458BCE61C07.thumb.jpeg.c254236a829c4a84b79c19d4f84d4726.jpeg

 

The same can be said for the effectiveness of masks, no impact at all. Which makes sense since CDC has acknowledged that asymptomatic spread is basically a myth. And yet everyone still wears one.

 

We just have a complete refusal to accept and react to new data as it comes. Some people sound the same today as they did in March. Illinois and California have decided to just ignore the CDC now and test people who don’t need tests. You get more false positives than asymptomatic super spreaders, that’s for sure.
 

In the end, even though Pelosi and Mayor Beetlejuice of Chicago aren’t afraid of the bug when they get hairdos, they damn sure want the rest of us to be.

Now they’re trying to say she was set up by the salon. Absolutely delusional. And what’s even scarier is people will back her

That, and suddenly now salons in California can operate indoors after all! Wonder what changed in 24 hours??? Hmmm...
 

Love how the article makes no mention of the obvious reason. ?

People don't just have motives for what they say, they have motives for what they believe as well.

      2015 Sierra Denali L86 cyl 5 misfire at idle

      By Gkistler · Posted

      Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions?

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
