I wore a helmet, didn't like it

I wear a seat belt, don't like it

I got the jab, didn't mind it.  Makes more sense to me than the other two

Helmet laws suck.

Wear a goddamn helmet.

Vaccine mandates suck.

Get the goddamn jab.
There are many things you can point to as proof that the human is not smart. But my personal favorite would have to be that we needed to invent the helmet. What was happening, apparently, was that we were involved in a lot of activities that were cracking our heads. We chose not to avoid doing those activities but, instead, to come up with some sort of device to help us enjoy our head-cracking lifestyles. And even that didn’t work because not enough people were wearing them so we had to come up with the helmet law. Which is even stupider, the idea behind the helmet law being to preserve a brain whose judgment is so poor, it does not even try to avoid the cracking of the head it’s in.

Y'all are complaining about demand side problems with ICU bed availability.

What about artificial supply side restrictions? It's called Certificate of Need restrictions.

I mean I plan on going to the Orange bowl. Why should I worry about the unvaccinated who are there? And if I should what is the value of my vaccination?

This is where I'm at with it.
I got the 2 shots.
I got the booster.
I'm 41 years old and have taken like 2 sick days off work in my life.
.
If all of that doesn't allow me to go out into the world, then what's the point?

Agreed.  I think we need to reconsider the protocols that are shutting down these sporting events as well

I'm comfortable with requirements evolving as we learn more about this disease.  As often noted here, the issues are largely with the elderly (and comors.)

I understand the public health desire to limit case numbers, but at this point, it's out, and evolving itself.

I just took two longish flights using crowded airports, I'm sure I was exposed to someone with COVID, probably several times.

LAX was packed, ATL when we arrived was not really that full like I saw when we left.

Despite the Newsom statewide indoor mask mandate, it's absolutely not being followed here in Orange County. 


  • I went to play golf on Wednesday. Nobody in the pro shop when I paid for the round was wearing a mask. 
  • Wife went to the grocery store yesterday. She said barely anyone was wearing a mask--a large corporate grocery store was one of the places I actually expected some level of enforcement and/or compliance, but nobody really cared.
  • We went to the wine bar last night. Not even the staff was wearing masks. 

I talked in the other thread about myths... "Law" is one of those. The truth of life is that the people make the law and the legislature just writes it down. Any law that enough people disagree with just becomes ignored, absent draconian enforcement.

Here is South Africa Covid stats

You will note new cases appears to have spiked and new deaths is very low

I think this is what will happen here

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

agreed, doesn't seem to be shutting down much of anything besides sporting events
shopping, bars, churches will be near capacity this afternoon and evening
the Hawaii bowl would be decent entertainment
