I think it's the Coast Guard, not the Corp. Here's a thread from 2007 the @Phil Lilley started.

I feel for your daughter and all healthcare workers. I can't imagine how it feels to lose so many patients. There are a lot professions that are exposed to large numbers of people, too. Retail workers, teachers, food service, the list goes on. Those people are at risk, too, and personally, I feel like I should care about them. The fact that there was almost no flu season last winter tells us that masking works.

The information that came out today is just frightening. Vaccinated people with little to no symptoms spreading at the same rate as sick people. The infection rate of 1:8 or 9. It's just scary if you have to be around people at all and it really feels like no one in my neck of the woods is taking it seriously.

Man, you are living the life. Jealous. You post great catches.

Great. Phil's got our IPs. Oneshot is off the grid. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

Wow. That's at least the 3rd James River walleye in the last couple weeks. What's going on? Glad you're back at it. If I remember correctly, your shooter was just sentenced. Hope that brings some closure.

however, I did not hit the Powerball. I did win $17 on a scratched though. So, will you take $17? Straight cash, homey.

Have you sold it? Had I hit the Powerball on Saturday, I was ready to write a check. However....

I would have canceled then just disputed the charge on my credit or debit card.

Same old @fishinwrench. Play by your own rules and get to decide what gets to be discussed and what doesn't. Whatever man. It's a lost cause. You've had it and you're good, at least until the next time your get it, like the Congressman in Louisiana who has it for the second time. https://www.theadvocate.com/acadiana/news/article_a0e83d88-edad-11eb-95a2-7bf12e04f2c2.html @BilletHead thanks for bringing up this post. I think it's important to discuss with those willing to discuss. @snagged in outlet 3 you're right about that this is a different kind of vaccine, though it's not DNA vs mRNA. The Flu virus also is an RNA virus and doesn't have DNA. It's more of a dead (in the shot/live (the nasal sniffer) for flu and and piece of genetic material for the mRNA. And only time will tell how effective the new type of vaccine is in the long run.

Nope, you don't. But you brought it up, so I thought you wanted to discuss. And

Well, I thought the USA Today article mentioned in. A case had been identified in a Tx hospital and there were 11 in Canada. I can go back to the google machine and double check.

Please provide some evidence. A reputable link of some kind.

No offense to Rep. Hartzler, but there isn't any evidence is coming across the boarder. There as much in Canada as there is in the US, but they don't share a border with Mexico. We don't share a border with India, where the Delta variant started, but here we are. Here's an article from USA Today, a fairly safe and middle of the road newspaper. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2021/07/21/lambda-variant-covid-identified-texas-hospital-what-know/8039406002/ I think we forget that in the past pandemics, medicine was nonexistent. I mean, in the Spanish Flu outbreak in 1919, we had aspirin. That's it. Ventilators weren't much more than a concept and prototypes until 1940. Between vaccines and antibiotics, we've been pretty good for 100 years in first world countries. Luckily, SARS 1 was only contagious in it's end stages, which is why so many hospital workers got it. Ebola was mist contagious from dealing with dead bodies, something we don't do much of here. Plague: treatable TB: treatable Polio: gone for us Measles/Mumps/Rubella: gone thanks to vaccines Flu: vax, treatable anti-virals, but still deadly for the young, old, immune-suppressed, etc. Polio: gone to vax Small Pox: gone to vax Monkey pox: still in labs and Africa (finger crossed) Chicken Pox/Shingles: gone to vax (shingles is nasty and random, btw. Had it in my early 30s and still have nerve damage on my right shoulder blade 15 years later) COVID will hopefully be gone to vax in the next few years.

I've been wondering where he's been too. I don't bored and checked the Lebanon are obits yesterday and didn't see anyone named Oneshot... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That is really cool. I'd never heard of them until this thread.

It's amazing. When I was a kid, I'd watch the summer Olympics for badminton and table tennis, and the winter Olympics for bobsled and luge. I felt like I had a chance in those sports.

Brilliant.

@Johnsfolly Is that a blind you're fishing behind?

Access denied. I think you need a public link.

Yes, definitely places for him to fish, especially up near the hatchery. The first 5 or 6 holes at least, then there are some other handicap accessible spots throughout. Tim posts on Instagram often. rrtroutgod I believe. And it's mostly no wading anyway.

Very cool. Did you paint the PVC?

I would say you won't need waders this time of year. I always start in the City park. I've caught fish in the park several times, especially the big hole in front of the bridge.

Your pic is broken. I'm anxious to see it.

I almost stepped on one 25 years ago downstream near the farm. It was a warm spring day and there was a rock slide that led down to the creek. I thought "this would be a great place for a snake" and as I scanned down toward the water, I heard the flick of the tail. I looked down to my left and about a step away was a coiled up Cotton Mouth showing fangs and the classic white mouth (hence Cotton Mouth I read later that week at Barnes & Noble). I really thought I'd had a heart attack. I went upstream after that.
