And that has what to do with Biden's statement?

Viruses gotta virus.

*I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like
Cherry Cola
C-O-L-A Cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said, "Lola"
L-O-L-A Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man
Oh my Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola

Well, we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
She said, "Little boy, won't you come home with me?"
Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes
Well, I almost fell for my Lola
Lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola

I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her, and she at me
Well, that's the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
Lo lo lo lo Lola
Girls will be boys, and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world
Except for Lola
Lo lo lo lo Lola

Well, I'd left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
She said, "Little boy, gonna make you a man"
Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
Lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola*

Tollbooth Willie smiled.

Are those who are supposed to be offended, really offended by any of it?

I guess, maybe

It probably depends on the source

Damn selective memory you have.

The numbers showed they "worked" at about 94%. Not totally preventing the disease, but mostly preventing it or at least making it a milder case. That was pretty good and accomplished the desired purpose, in record time with unprecedented flexibility from the FDA.

And then, as you well know, the virus mutated. You had Beta, Gamma and Delta. The latter showed us that vaccinated people could get really sick with COVID. Could get really sick and die. In fact, during our last spike, *20% of our hospi COVID patients were breakthrough cases. *

So now folks are getting third shots. Israel is now talking a fourth shot.

Or just senile.😄😄

Hey! That's MY baliwick!

(I think I'm the oldest person here now)

My sister in law probably qualifies. Very dark, curly hair, comes from near Dublin. Her son, my nephew is borderline redhead, so it’s kind of an interesting mix. We’ve got Irish from our side too which might have added a bit. I’ve never heard actual Irish people use the term either.

I think it’s a putrid mix of spores, mold, and fungus all wrapped into a viscous, evil-smelling mess.

Or as we used to call it, a full English breakfast

LOL! I love a full Irish Breakfast, which is a full English Breakfast except you replace the tea with a half liter of Stout, and I on certain occasions add a jigger of whiskey.

Of course not. They don't call her Maxwell House fer nuthin'.

Cut the cheese!

It's really a shame. They created a reasonably good premise then ruined it with horrible writing.

OMG coffee everywhere.

If it is good enough for Sinatra...
