    I think Dr. Paul is medically correct. If you've had COVID, you have natural antibodies.

    Now, if you want to make an argument for antibodies against the original strain vs. one of the new variants, I think that's worth studying.

    He's medically correct, but he's providing rather poor leadership. The question is, why is he doing this?

    Maybe he isn't a big liar.

    The big liars don't care what they say.

    They just toe the line.

    It may be very hard for Liars, Inc. to gin up the sane silliness as last time, especially if the economy takes a downturn or inflation continues as is.

    Her words are ill-informed and terminally stupid. Somebody needs to bang her head against a tombstone at Arlington until some sense seeps into the vacuum between her ears.

    Haven't lost any friends, but I sure lost a lot of respect for some of them.

    Nor have I. But, more than one of our "internet friends" said that they would have no interaction with ANYONE who supported Trump.

    That's some deep-seated pathology there, coming from people who are supposedly smart and open-minded.

    Bongino has a name for them. He calls them the Smart Stupid People.

    ProPublica is not disclosing how it obtained the data, which was given to us in raw form, with no conditions or conclusions. ProPublica reporters spent months processing and analyzing the material to transform it into a usable database.

    I hope they lock these guys up.

    And if the rich guys paid what they owed, the rest of it is OK with me.

    Interesting article about productivity and heat. I don’t think it’s too far a stretch to apply to learning.

    Note one conclusion 3% drop in productivity for each degree above a certain temperature.

    If he had done that at the Capitol, he'd still be in solitary lockdown, probably without a lawyer.

    Edit:

    I listened to a podcast on how much Judges hate federal guidelines but it’s been proven their judgement creates distortions in equal treatment.

    I hate to be pedantic about it, but Baldrick is his family name, Sod Off was his given.

    I stand corrected.

    Which images, specifically?

    Most images are loaded from other servers I have no control over.

    I can only try to do something if I'm given a problem I can reproduce.

    Dumb. I haven't bought skim milk in years.

    Last time was in the 90's I think when fat was bad and sugar was fine.
