At least I’m man enough to admit it.
You have yet to point to the hypocrisy. I mention a guy you like has protected over 300 child abusers and you launch into a full defense of his character and say he's the victim of a hatchet job which you believe is equivalent to me saying DeSantis should release the emails from the whistleblower whose colleagues said was good at her job? I understand no one wants to get called out for defending the character of a child abuser, but you see how that's different right?
With everything being said, it's timeout for 24 hours. You guys take a break, have a beer or three and it will be opened back up tomorrow.
You guys have been very lenient and allowed a lot of back and forth.
You have allowed PLENTY on both sides to be said.
However, just look at the (few) times a warning has been given, and see if you see a lean.
That being said, some may argue the warnings are in proportion to the "crazy." In some cases - yes. In some cases - quick trigger.
So, call it my opinion if you want. But if you go back and actually tally the warnings from all you "mods," it's a stat, not an opinion.
You guys do a fine job and we agree 98% of the time. Wouldn't waste my time if I didn't respect your opinions. Just hope we can always banter back and fourth with the 2%.
Tested Positive officially as I thought. Randomly got a test a week ago last Friday then started feeling a little weird Saturday night and sick on Sunday but ultimately that test came back negative. Tested again this past Thursday and just got the results today as positive. Good turn around time for Miami.
Sunday Monday and Tuesday I felt like dirt. High fever, cough, fatigue , body aches, chills and sweats. The last few days i have turned the corner although the virus did move into my stomach and caused discomfort and issues but that is finally subsiding as well. I exercised the last 2 days with just very low energy and fatigue but didn’t see any issues from the workout.
I will say that the mental battle is something that I could see getting the better of some people especially with the breathing part. At no point did I notice any significant or minimal breathing problems, and was further confused with my first negative test. I believe that kinda just put it further form my mind thinking that maybe I just had the flu. But now with my test coming back positive just a few hours ago, I already catch myself checking my breathing and thinking if there’s a problem even though I’m about 75% recovered. I feel if I would have tested positive the first time around I would have been much more skeptical of my health and well being.
This was my daily medication for anyone wondering.
Glad you've come through it and are feeling better! Thanks for sharing what you've used since most cases seem to be left on their own to figure out what to use at home.
Glad you're making good progress. Were the 2 tests using the same method?
Yes, nose swab
Fauci basically says, “We don’t really know if masks work.”
Say what you want about the Cosby Show (and, no, I am not condoning anything by referencing a TV show), but there was some wisdom shared at times.
Including the episode where the oldest daughter brought her husband home to meet the parents. Without them even knowing she was married.
He was a Navy guy - and seemed to be outstanding by all accounts. Just sharp.
When Cliff and Claire were upset about the situation, the oldest daughter was taken aback - because she KNEW this guy was perfect and everything they would have wanted in a son-in-law.
Cliff explained it this way (abbreviated for brevity's sake):
"If you bring me the finest steak dinner imaginable, and serve it to me on a trash can lid, I am going to be disgusted by it. The content doesn't matter - where it comes from and how it is presented just destroys it's worth."
I read a lot of stuff about everything. Regardless of how well-written or eye-opening a piece seems, if it comes from a source like breitbart or mother jones or the like, it's really hard for it to be taken seriously by most people.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, of course - and this obviously is just one poster's opinion.
SC cases seemed to have leveled off a bit. Den - would love to hear your opinion on our state's cases. I have noticed that the death rate and hospitalizations have crept up, which most would expect. Like I had sad before - any time SC is not last in some type of rank, I am excited about it...
I’m convinced you’re the only one who knows anything about this whole situation 😏
That is not what he basically said. From the article:
“... when asked for an estimate of “how less likely people are to transmit coronavirus if they’re wearing a mask,” he could not provide a definitive answer.
“We don’t know exactly. There have been a number of meta analyses. One published in The Lancet on June 1, 2020 said masks and respirators reduced the risk of infection by anywhere from 78 percent to 85 percent,” he said.
“Your guess is as good as any: 50 percent to 75 percent or 80 percent is probably correct,” he added.”
Now, after my conversation with teach, I would never insinuate that you didn’t read past the headline. However, I’d encourage you to read the entire article a little more closely in the future, before forming an opinion and posting. You wouldn’t want to accidentally misrepresent the info in the article.
Also, I’d highly encourage you to post information from a less biased/misleading news source, even if the articles are on the exact same subject.
But hey, what do I know anyways? I’m just some guy between the ages of 3 and 5.
It appears since I’ve checked in...this thread was shut down AND re-opened? Legendary thread!
