well crap. We have mice in our detached garage/shed and I’ve cleaned up a few things that had mice crap in them without any protection. I’ll probably have the dead soon. It’s been nice knowing you, McLegion can rejoice.
Hantavirus isn't endemic to Iowa. Don't do that in New Mexico, though.

I enjoyed it, myself. I'm now working on hantavirus. I'm sure Joe is doing the same somewhere.
Can it be passed from pickleball paddle to pickleball paddle? Covid was said to live in a pickleball for 69 hours…
To add, here's hilarious irony.
The company I started is expanding in Europe and wait for it, South Freaking Carolina.
I played PB in South Carolina last June. I was the only old, white guy on the courts. Played in SC one day and NC the next. Virginia later that week…

You should have played in Hilton Head. You would have never been the only white guy ;) You still need to kick my *** when I am not bathing in work.

So instead of potentially creating a vaccine with who knows what kind of side effects. People just need to stop traveling all over hell. Just think how much fuel prices would go down as well.

This new version doesn't need mice. Just sickies who like to travel the globe and bring back the next pandemic.

Chat GPT did it in like 20 seconds - I did have a pretty good prompt, though. I asked it to analyze the thread as if it were an anthropologist who stumbled upon two new tribes that were feuding and break down the main protagonists and antagonists.

Having traveled many paths through life and moving through many organizations involving people one thing was for sure when new people show up there is some chaos and pecking order needing to be established

When you boys from Iowa show up with your ideas and ways of doing it one will definitely see some train wrecks and damage from getting to know one another

Generally going slow and smooth works good but most of us say F IT and just go balls to the walls out the chute

And the well documented and written words definitely had royal origin LOL

People seem to forget this was a novel coronavirus in 2019. New. People did the best they could based on information they had. New information informed different thinking and policies. Lots of people do not like what Fauci did or thought he moved to slowly, but what if he didn't do those things and the disease turned out to be worse than it was? Errors of omission vs commission and such. As for Kennedy, I don't trust a damn thing out of his mouth ginned up by his kooky brain.
you know, I agree with you 100% it was a novel virus and a lot of us followed the advice given us by the medical, CDC, NIH experts - including Biden and Trump

Trump did something that the entire country could have looked back on and said he did something great - Operation Warp Speed.

But he turned around and pooped all over it to win political points with his base.
Now he has gone all RFK Jr and, well, the next pandemic that rolls through town will be harder to deal with because of this about face.

On the slow and smooth approach vs eff it, an angle to this is that HROT was shut down without warning. I had resigned myself to it just ending as we knew it after 25 years (I would have just paid the $120 but then my FSU homies would have been left out plus many who won't pay the $120 out of principle). Then a couple of guys started DMing other posters through On3 (FSU guys, ironically enough, who rehomed to HROT after their site shut down and/or went to hell), and word spread organically. That is why it was like that scene in a movie where a couple people show up to a party and then more uninvited guests just keep walking endlessly through the door as more and more people figured out in real time what was going on. We mostly kept to ourselves in that original thread and then something happened where all hell broke loose. It was all likely in response to Piggy. Then as the reality set in that our old site was probably not going back to how it was anytime soon, we set up a lot of the familiar threads we liked (Wordle, Putin, Maptap, Memes, 100 mg THC, etc). I guess that really rubbed people the wrong way as a lot of it IS truly sophomoric. Then a few guys found this place who rub a lot of people the wrong way (Scruddy, Gibbs, Northern, etc) who actually vibed with guys like Piggy and John Hughes, and basically this place has turned into a copy of where we were, integrated with what you all have going on. It is actually quite an interesting case study.

Yeah I give Trump a lot of credit for Warp Speed. He did a very good thing. But then, as you say, he pivoted.

We were in Charolette for niece’s wedding. Our motel was almost on the border. Wedding was at the Sully Sullenberger museum and hanger. It was very cool, the plane that landed in the Hudson is there along with dozens of other aircraft. When I actually get out of the Tri-County I always look for a game with the locals. CSB…

Do you remember the bodies piling up in NYC morgues?
The rows of newly dug graves?
I had 2 classmates due of covid
Never lost anyone I know of flu.

Memories of the horror of this world-wide plague quickly grow dim.
Ask Italians if it was just the flu.

Trump suggested injecting bleach....was that correct?

All they had to go on was the 1919 Spanish flu epidemic which killed young people.

Mistakes were made....by trump on down.

My daughter is a respiratory therapist. I heard first hand about people dying. Anybody who downplays it is a brainwashed idiot.

This stings a little doesn’t it. It WAS just a flu and you fell for it. Hard


This is dumb and it makes clear that you and your bots can't read. It said "covid acts like a bad flu in it's transmissibility"

That does NOT say it was just a flu pig.
