  • Well, they can now plant the goalposts where ever they want

     So the CDC is deciding against a new definition of fully vaxxed since apparently people notice when you keep adding booster upon booster (even for kids, which never went through the FDA advisory process, BTW).   So instead of the term ‘fully vaccinated’ they are going to use ‘up to date’ on shots.  They’ve already made… Continue reading

  • No thanks, I'll drive

     It seems that Amtrak didn’t make it through the storm on the east coast any better than I-95 did.  Word is that, even though the train backtracked to outside of Lynchburg, no one was allowed off the train, the toilets overflowed, and there was no more food on board. All things considered, I’d rather take… Continue reading

  • New York is following Florida's example to try to get good data

    New York is asking their hospitals to start breaking out hospitalization data by reason of admission.  Covid numbers include people admitted to the hospital for other reasons (broken leg for example) who subsequently test positive for the wuflu.   In Florida it looks like about half the people who are counted as covid hospitalizations were actually… Continue reading

  • Illness myopia

    A friend of mine had family over for a late Christmas.  The kids seemed a bit draggy and one of the grandkids was sneezing in everyone’s face.   I bet you think you know where this is going, but it’s not covid.   Why??  Because the kids had been testing for covid–over and over and over again… Continue reading

  • NASCAR goes full-full woke

     I mean, I knew they were headed that direction with the whole garage-pull-Bubba-Smollett thing with the FBI.  Their rules for the races have taken the sport out of the sport since everyone has to use the same kind of car.  And now, poor Brandon Brown can’t even have a sponsor on his car. The kid… Continue reading

  • Things we knew/know but are finally being openly admitted by the fearmongers

     Item 1:  Overcounting covid hospitalizations.  Fauxi admitted it about kids, but we know it’s happening with adults as well since anyone going into the hospital is automatically tested.  It’s the whole ‘with covid’ vs ‘of covid’ issue.  Combined with Item 2 below and there’s a butt-ton of overcounting. Item 2:  PCR tests are crap and… Continue reading

  • Movie scene that seems to describe 2021 perfectly

     From Airplane vs Volcano: Military guy:  Can you tell me what your situation status is? Science Guy:  Uh sure. Situation status.  Uh… We lost both our pilots.  Uh, we nearly crashed.  We nearly blew up, and there’s this guy up here who’s is super close to a psychotic melt down. Oh! And we’re flying in… Continue reading

  • Pretty sure this is what Rokita was talking about–can't trust the numbers

     So Fauxi, for some unknown reason, actually went out and told the truth. As we all knew, but he admitted, child wuflu hospitalization numbers are jacked up by including any hospital visit where a child subsequently tests positive for the rona.  These numbers include children with broken legs, appendicitis, or other condition. “But the other… Continue reading

  • Happy New Year

     Twilight Zone Marathon to ring in the New Year.  It seems tame compared to our present reality. In any case, to all friends near and far, my wish for you: May the worst day of the coming year be better than the best day of the last year. Happy New Year! Continue reading

  • Betty White, RIP

     Betty White passed this morning, December 31, 2021.  I have no words that would do her justice. Continue reading
