im a water boy though and have been jonesing. Grew up on lakes and rivers.
I know the lines. Best days owning a boat are when you buy and when you sell. Lol.
Now that im less than a mile from a boat launch, im all in. If i use it five times a year for five years and sell, ill be happy.

fishing, waterskiing, innertubing…so looking forward to next summer!

We are 20 minutes to the closest boat ramp and we enjoy playing close to home in our boat. My wife like to cruise from OC to Portland and back, listen to music, just putt's around. I do stop and bass fish as well.
We are retired so it gives us something to stay active with and for me to dink around with. The boat is garaged.
Even if we are out just 2-3 hours its been great.
The water is very therapeutic once you get away from the ramp, if its busy. We like week days.

I don't know about that, but it seems like anti-maskers/anti-vaxxers are getting boat raced by Covid.

They aren't, but whether they might get covid-19 or not is a red herring. Many did, and have the only real immunity available.

The battle here is to defend Freedom against UnConstitutional tyrannical fiats, mandates (persondates?), coercions, and thefts.

And many are clogging up hospitals or are dead.

You win some, you lose some. Though death is the most secure natural immunity. At least they avoided Bill Gates' mind control, a fate worse than death.

Boat raced.

I missed measles vaccine by weeks. I got measles. I have natural immunity.

And the measles almost killed me.

This was just like my buddy. I wonder. While taking his last gasping breaths before losing consciousness in his living room Tuesday morning, if it occurred to him that he probably should have gotten vaccinated so he could be there for his little boy...

He said many times "maybe I'm making a mistake and I'll die from it. But I'm not doing it jsut because they want me too..." "I don't know anybody who's died of it..."

Whole family of antivaxers... 1 dead, and their family friend in the hospital for nearly 3 weeks now. Nearly all of them have it.

Something like 50 people... <sigh>

Sorry, that's rough.

Thanks. It's hard to talk to his dad (my boss). I tried to be comforting, but it was just so hard listening to why this was different and not due to COVID-19 as much as <circumstances>...

Circumstances which wouldn't have mattered if he were vaccinated. But you can't go there...

It's interesting, on October 3rd you posted this about deaths in Florida having dropped by 95% over the last month. It said that the 7-day moving average on October 2nd was 17.

Now if you check, the moving 7-day average on October 2nd for Florida is 152.

Something sure seems a little fishy with Florida's numbers these days. It's almost like they're putting out a sensationalistic statement and then the numbers gradually change after the fact. But that would be misleading and dishonest so there must be a different explanation.

No, Florida did exactly that.

Hmm, it loaded for me and I do not subscribe to the Miami Herald. Maybe they don't like dogs?

As the delta variant spreads through Florida, data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggest this could be the most serious and deadly surge in COVID-19 infections since the beginning of the pandemic.

As cases ballooned in August, however, the Florida Department of Health changed the way it reported death data to the CDC, giving the appearance of a pandemic in decline, an analysis of Florida data by the Miami Herald and el Nuevo Herald found.

On Monday, Florida death data would have shown an average of 262 daily deaths reported to the CDC over the previous week had the health department used its former reporting system, the Herald analysis showed. Instead, the Monday update from Florida showed just 46 “new deaths” per day over the previous seven days.

The dramatic difference is due to a small change in the fine print. Until three weeks ago, data collected by DOH and published on the CDC website counted deaths by the date they were recorded — a common method for producing daily stats used by most states. On Aug. 10, Florida switched its methodology and, along with just a handful of other states, began to tally new deaths by the date the person died.

If you chart deaths by Florida’s new method, based on date of death, it will generally appear — even during a spike like the present — that deaths are on a recent downslope. That’s because it takes time for deaths to be evaluated and death certificates processed. When those deaths finally are tallied, they are assigned to the actual date of death — creating a spike where there once existed a downslope and moving the downslope forward in time.​

Oregon man with 'long Covid' leaves hospital after 299 DAYS and says he struggles to breathe just walking across his living room
  • Alex Castro, 44, of Sandy, Oregon, spent nearly 300 days in the hospital due to complications with COVID-19
  • His hospital stay included 108 days on ECMO, a life-support machine that assists in circulating a person's blood
  • An ICU nurse said Castro 'fought like an animal' to survive and doctors are considering it a success that he can even stand up anymore
  • Castro once worked three jobs to support his family, but now cannot even walk across a room without losing his breathe
  • A new study finds that a large amount of COVID-19 survivors have had their life disrupted - like Castro - due to a mysterious condition called long Covid
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/...alized-299-days-complications-long-Coivd.html
 
This could be of interest in the 'is catching covid and recovering better than vaccination' discussion:

"Among COVID-19–like illness hospitalizations among adults aged ≥18 years whose previous infection or vaccination occurred 90–179 days earlier, the adjusted odds of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 among unvaccinated adults with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection were 5.49-fold higher than the odds among fully vaccinated recipients of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine who had no previous documented infection (95% confidence interval = 2.75–10.99)."

I mean no offense with this, but I hope everything is okay with OB outside of this forum. His posting the last week or two seems like projection for something else that is going on.

I hope I’m wrong, and I’m sure he won’t be happy about this post but it is what is.

I hope you're wrong. Also I get no vibes along those lines.
