TradeTheBeal!

That’s pretty close to home. ^^^

Getting awfully nerdy in here. Allow me to bring a little balance to the thread.

Protest Dogs are pretty great.

Virginia had its third-highest one day total for cases today. Very unusual for a Sunday...and rather ominous.

Bruce Lee 30 For 30 tonight.

I watched Doctor Strange for about the 5th time last night. I still have absolutely no idea what is happening in that movie. It’s fun to look at tho.

As Tropicals Storms go, Cristobal is a doozy. Big chonky boi.

Cookie Monster has trouble keeping it medium. It’s a little bit like Judge Jeanine.

Im too busy watching Big Bird interview Van Jones right now to respond.

The 2nd greatest skit in cinema history.

St Anger came out 17 years ago today. Look at Lars go!

Vets on the force is prolly a big issue. Huge difference between search and destroy and serve and protect.

Ancient knowledge.

T-Dog is woke!

The 3rd greatest skit in cinematic history.

Im a 50 year old white guy living 20 miles west of Richmond. 98% white but fairly diverse economically and I’m well known in my community. If a gang of cops murdered me at 3PM in broad daylight at the local Food Lion parking lot, every single person on my street would raise holy hell. There would be a full complement of assault rifles and lawyers and activists on the case if they tried to sweep it under the rug. I would have my day in court. But we both know that’s never ever gonna happen. And we both know why.

Read a very interesting article the other day...can’t find it right now. But the gist was this. Your immune system comes in two waves. First wave is from the cells. Basically a self-destruct...when infected they send out a chemical signal that shuts down adjoining cells. Vastly reduces viral replication and buys time for the second wave to rally up...white blood cells and such. Anyway, the reason COVID produces so many negative outcomes is because the first wave never happens. Somehow it bypasses it and by the time the second wave hits the virus is too widespread. The immune response overloads and you get the dreaded “cytokine storm”. So to the point, even a mild antibody response would be helpful. Even after the virus mutates...which it will.

I ain’t reading all that jibber-jabber.

I’ve been saying this for years. Instead, we burn the budgets on surplus tactical gear and then send the patrols out to cover the deficit by ginning up traffic fees and such. Pure idiocy.

New Witches dropped this morning! Turn on Tune in Drop out.

Plain old rat snake. Pretty handy around the yard. She ordered bagel w/lox and a mimosa.

Danger Noodle on the back deck this morning!
