Saw a report a little while ago where they are reporting that some people (reports from various states) who have had the vaccine have contracted Covid. Think they said that all had had the vaccine two weeks or more before getting Covid. And several deaths reported from it.
To be expected I guess.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 69°F and cloudy. Clearing later. Today's high may set a local record for this date at 98°F. Winds picking up this evening. Too warm so soon. Del Rio topped out at 102°F yesterday. Cold front coming in this weekend, thankfully.
Great news about 5-star kicker, Jackson Smith, from Boyle County staying home and becoming a Wildcat.
Happy Friday!
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Whenever I go to Kentucky to visit family my first stop before I get to their house is to stop off in E-town and grab a bag of White Castle (enough for everyone) and that is our dinner. I usually leave Elgin OK by 4 or 5am and get there by around 6 or 7pm. The last time however, this past summer, they had only the drive through open and when I got there the line was around the parking lot. First time not getting White Castle on my trip there. There are frozen White Castle at Sam's and the Commissary but, it is not the same. But....Krystal vs White Castle. I always hit up both every visit back to KY. Middlesboro has a Krystal. Usually visit White Castle in London or Bowling Green or Shepherdsville. Both are good for different reasons. London White Castle near I-75 offers something different during each visit. Middlesboro Krystal is consistent. Someday, I may conduct comparison testing.
Plan on visiting Rax in Harlan, Penn Station for an Artichoke sub, White Castle and Krystal all later this month.
So you've had about a 100 degree swing in 60 days!Good morning from ATX. Currently 69°F and cloudy. Clearing later. Today's high may set a local record for this date at 98°F. Winds picking up this evening. Too warm so soon. Del Rio topped out at 102°F yesterday. Cold front coming in this weekend, thankfully.

At this rate....the Biden vaccine will surely turn into the Trump vaccine.2249 reported deaths officially from the c19 vaccines (only about 10% are reported as there are strict criteria regarding how soon after vaccination the symptoms develop that lead to death). Sharp uptick in last weeks numbers compared to the avg from previous 13 weeks.
50k adverse events in 14 weeks.
Lmao! Yes sirAt this rate....the Biden vaccine will surely turn into the Trump vaccine.

They tore down the White Castle here in St. Matthews many years ago. It stood at the same site for decades and I loved it. Good place to go during my bar hopping days. About 5 years ago they built a new one a block away from the old site. It's modern with all of today's conveniences. Nothing like the old atmosphere that I actually miss. The burgers just don't taste as good. Others have complained as well. Maybe it's just in my mind, craving the good ol' days.We went to White Castle at Fern Valley Rd and I-65.........it was a Friday evening........we waited in a long line....when we got up there I handed the lady a $100 bill......she said they didn't have enough change to break the bill.......she told me she would hold my burgers until I went somewhere and got change......I told her that was a brilliant idea.......I wonder how long those burgers sat there......I have never been to a WC Lounge since.....
Yeah my arm is quite sore too. I didn't feel the first shot at all but the second shot I could definitely feel a needle piercing my skin. My wife actually jumped a little when they gave her shot. Other than the soreness we're fine on our 2nd day after.Good morning! I was wrong about my second corono shot. My shoulder is sore this morning. Not just a little tender either...sore. The first shot was nothing. I didn't feel the needle go in nor the vaccine. This one I didn't feel the needle but I definitely felt the vaccine. Don't know if there was more liquid with the second shot or if the second lady hit the plunger harder, but there was a difference.
I'm playing golf at 1030 so the shoulder may as well lay back and enjoy it because it's going to happen either way.
5 star kicker is awesome! Hoping the vast majority of his kicks are PAT's.

In my case it's 60. A lot of food that I enjoyed at an earlier age isn't as tasty nowadays.They say taste buds change after we reach the other side of 80, so it could be that...?
No that's what I meant. My 60 taste buds. hahahaha80 taste buds. Not 80 years old. C'mon man! (UK"82")
Older folks have around 5k taste buds while kids have something like 10k. So that song by "STP" really rings true.
"I'm half the man I used to be...."

My taste certainly changed as I grew older. What tasted so good when I was 6 years old is not so good today. I think most products have changed over the years to make them "more healthy" and added preservatives and chemicals we did not have in my growing up years which may have changed the taste.80 taste buds.

My taste has changed dramatically. I rarely ate black pepper but now it is on my food often. A steak is still good; however, hamburgers are not my favored food as it once was. I favor pork more now than beef.In my case it's 60. A lot of food that I enjoyed at an earlier age isn't as tasty nowadays.
So do these people who died have death certificates that say covid was the cause? If not, I call it bs. And they would be headline news if true. I.e., people will pass along rumors they want to be true.Saw a report a little while ago where they are reporting that some people (reports from various states) who have had the vaccine have contracted Covid. Think they said that all had had the vaccine two weeks or more before getting Covid. And several deaths reported from it.

That might be the northernmost Krystal I've heard of.Krystal vs White Castle. I always hit up both every visit back to KY. Middlesboro has a Krystal.

Reports to VERS are considered officially reported because the Fed government takes & records the reported deaths & adverse reactions. Doesn't mean that any government in US takes them as deaths factually being due to covid.2249 reported deaths officially from the c19 vaccines (only about 10% are reported as there are strict criteria regarding how soon after vaccination the symptoms develop that lead to death). Sharp uptick in last weeks numbers compared to the avg from previous 13 weeks.
50k adverse events in 14 weeks. Only good news about that is the numbers are steady. Haven't seemed to be huge increases month to month in event stats.
These are JUST the US numbers. No idea what's going on elsewhere.
Back in the day.....that was my morning coffee stop when I left the shop........We always had jobs in the end of town.....I haven't been out in that area in 15 yrs or better.......I didn't know they had built a new WC out there....IMHO the flavor changed when they put the holes in the patty.....also about the same time they started using dehydrated onions versus fresh chopped onions...........that onion flavored cabbage they use now will blow you up........They tore down the White Castle here in St. Matthews many years ago.

I had a medical procedure and had to drink barium crystals......I lost my taste for a little over 18 months......I could never eat anything spicier than mild taco sauce.......since my taste came back.....I can eat really spicy foods......there was an Indian Buffet on the A-10 not far from our house........they advertised 70+ dishes......it ranged from hot to make you cry.........I tried every dish they had over several visits......none was too hot........I didn't care fro a bunch of them but none were too spicy........In my case it's 60. A lot of food that I enjoyed at an earlier age isn't as tasty nowadays.
I became addicted to spicy/hot food during my UK days. I put hot sauce, fresh peppers and pepper flakes on a lot of what I ate. Nothing was too hot until I bought some Trinidad Scorpion pepper flakes. A few flakes were almost too much. I can't imagine how hot Carolina Reapers would be. Now I have to watch it with the spice. My stomach isn't ironclad like it used to be.I had a medical procedure and had to drink barium crystals......I lost my taste for a little over 18 months......I could never eat anything spicier than mild taco sauce.......since my taste came back.....I can eat really spicy foods......there was an Indian Buffet on the A-10 not far from our house........they advertised 70+ dishes......it ranged from hot to make you cry.........I tried every dish they had over several visits......none was too hot........I didn't care fro a bunch of them but none were too spicy........

I have developed a taste for graham crackers and I don't need them as they are so high in carbs.
It is a sunny 60.3°F here. I am cooking diner tonight so pray for those who are going to have to eat it.
Since smell is linked in with taste I have to make my food with more spices and more salt these days. I have not been able to smell for many, many years. In our old house one morning I was drinking my coffee and my wife and daughter were just getting up, came in to the living room and were gaging. Apparently, there had been a skunk under the house who sprayed and it was bad in the house. I smelled nothing. They quickly got ready for work/school and left. I went under the house to chase it away and it was already gone. When I cleaned up and went to work I was there about 15 minutes before I was sent home for the day because of the smell.In my case it's 60. A lot of food that I enjoyed at an earlier age isn't as tasty nowadays.
Nutty people are the bestest.Interesting project I have going. I used to be an old car guy. Salvaged old car parts on the cheap from junk yards for years (when you could still find old cars in junkyards) for projects I was working on. No projects now. I have a garage full of parts that I knew my wife would take to the dump within hours of my death. Started selling them on Ebay a couple of weeks ago and have sold over $2000 dollars worth of parts already. I still have many to sell. Who knew? I sold a pair of 55 Pontiac tail lights that were NOS for $650!!! Old car people are nuts.
I am going to grab something to eat and head to the post office to send out three packages I sold on Ebay this morning It is amazing what you can sell. Some things I have sold were in my closet for about 20 years. Just crazy. The latest thing I sold is a 1964 Ring Magazine covering the Cassius Clay v Sonny Liston fight. I bought it in April 1964 for 50 cents and sold it for $21.00.Interesting project I have going. I used to be an old car guy.

Any idea how/why you lost your sense of smell? Related to military somehow?Since smell is linked in with taste I have to make my food with more spices and more salt these days.

My friend, Senator Rand Paul would call them out, like he did with Anthony Fauci and his various misrepresentations. We have a highly active group of folks who recommend no one take any vaccinations, polio, measles et.al. I think that they should not be allowed to mingle with the pubic if they refuse to take immunizations, they could easily become Typhoid Marys. They represent a pool of folks who don’t believe in science and are willing to contaminate the rest of the world. In my view we need to condemn them.Reports to VERS are considered officially reported because the Fed government takes & records the reported deaths & adverse reactions. Doesn't mean that any government in US takes them as deaths factually being due to covid.
I keep waiting for anyone to come up with a death certificate that says covid was the cause of death for anyone who contracted covid after receiving a first vaccine shot at least two weeks prior to contracting the disease. Haven't seen/heard. Have you seen such a death certificate?
My take is that this is a concerted effort to discredit the vaccines due to various belief systems.
Yes sir it is.Someone told me black pepper is good for arthritis pain. Just thought I'd mention that
Maybe, that is one of the areas that will be looked at by the VA whenever they get around to it. Have already seen a psychologist in November, Audiologist in December, a specialist nurse last month for X-rays on my back and looking at my shoulders. Suppose to see a doctor about my feet as well as knees too and whatever else they have in store but, the VA takes time.Any idea how/why you lost your sense of smell? Related to military somehow?
