It usually isn't hard to convert a power socket in the car to deliver power even when the engine/ignition is off.

I don't know what these things are called in English, but one of these cables would probably do the job. The idea is to "steal" power from an "always on" place and redirect it to a power socket.

I’m still surprised we didn’t see BLM wristbands (ala Livestrong) take off in 2020. I would’ve bought Horace two.

Thank you, that is thoughtful of you. I'd prefer pink, so I can demonstrate my awareness of breast cancer, too.

There won't be any fixing it. America is gone.

It was a Range Rover, so maybe she figured she'd found one that would actually run...

They need to frog march some ship owners to Rikers island.

7% of Israel’s serious COVID cases had three vaccine shots

Some 7% of Israel’s serious and critical COVID-19 cases were vaccinated with three shots of the coronavirus vaccine, according to data released Friday morning by the Health Ministry.
However, the number of new daily cases is declining and the government voted to roll out the Green Class outline in several green cities on Sunday to help keep children out of isolation.
“I cannot say that 7% is a lot,” Health Minister Director-General Prof. Nachman Ash told The Jerusalem Post. “The vaccine, even the third shot, does not work at 100%. It is 95% effective.
He said that there are also always a small percentage of people for whom the vaccine does not work as well, such as those who are immunosuppressed.
More than three million Israelis have been fully vaccinated with two shots and a booster. There were around 460 serious and critical cases on Friday, so 7% is around 32 people, meaning less than 0.00001% of people who have had a third shot are in serious condition.
“This is even better than we could have expected,” Ash said.
Another 17% were vaccinated with two shots more than six months ago, according to the data.

No he bloody didn't. My God, what a duffer.

Yeah...I stopped reading after that.

Why isn't he dead?

Is that a question related to his aneurysm or his music?

@copper said in Best Bond:

Sean Connery
Daniel Craig
Pierce Brosnan
Roger Moore
Timothy Dalton
George Lazenby
David Niven
Barry Nelson

So far

In that order

Yeah, I'd agree with that.

@klaus said in "Nurse? The President is on the line for you....":

Is it wrong for a president to get some direct feedback about a situation rather than getting everything via others?

Of course not.

But, frame it in this context: President hears that his friend;s SO is having trouble getting care because of all the COVID cases clogging up the ER. President calls and says, "Hey, what's goin' on there? My friend's SO is there and things are taking a long time." Do you think some skids would get greased?

Of course they would.

Those same folks that wanted the government out of the bedroom, suddenly want them back in?

My daughter's Ford C Max was t-boned last week and is now totaled. No worries, she was sore for a day but is fine now. BUT the real kicker is that, because of the price increase in used cars, the insurance is giving us more money for the car than what we paid for it.

Now, the hunt is on for another used car.

Sad

Nothing exciting. A new set of grips for my Jericho.

For those who do not know what a Jericho is...
