Completely missed this but an insane amount of rain fell about an hour west of Nashville yesterday. 15-17 inches in 24 hours in some places. One river that feeds into the Tennessee beat its old flood record by 12 FEET. At least 21 people were killed and could be dozens more.

Our local TV stations here pretty much mimic the political views of their respective networks. ABC CBS and NBC affiliates pretty much toe the line of their parent network. There is a Fox local outlet that doesn't even have its own local news anchors, choosing instead to use the feed from the NBC outlet. I stopped watching all of them when all they could muster was doom and gloom about Covid."in order to lead America you must love America"

Today the FDA could grant full approval of the Pfizer vaccine. Will this action have any affect on the microchip/DNA change/Jewish space laser crowd ?I don't watch Fox News for the same reason I don't eat out of a toilet.

Cullman County went 88.15% for Trump in the 2020 election. So, this was about as pro Trump as you can get. Him getting booed is pretty amazing.
Alabama is still, I believe, the state with the smallest percentage of fully vaccinated people."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln

What I like about Trump is he wasn't into forcing people to take the shot.

Gotta have a control group as Strangelove pointed out, so that we can know the potential long term effects that have yet to be studied, as well as discovering any errors in it's design.

It’s certainly not egregious like The Young Turks. Dare anyone to watch a YouTube video or two of their news reporting.AAL 2023 - Alim McNeill

Small sample size - Carribean, Yucatan peninsula, West Indies.....every port of call I'd ask a local about vaccine availability. Plenty of it. No one thinks it's safe and won't get the shots. If employment depends on it, most will. Resistance is strong.
Still, globally and in the US the pandemic is regional. That's not been widely recognized as a path forward in managing it. The excess mortality graph I posted yesterday is instructive to that end.
TBH, things are not as bad as we are led to believe they are by expert sources and the media that augments their crap. Wide spread vaccine resistance will make eradication impossible and substantial control difficult but contol can be obtained on a regional basis. Advocate for that approach
Unvaxed will bear the brunt of disease burden. Get used to people dying from COVID but keep in mind death is at the margins of the pandemic and made irresposibly outsized by people ignoring the facts and realities. Resist federal level recommendations meant to apply nationally on behaviors to protect the unvaxed from the natural consequences that result from their decision. Again, excess COVID related deaths will be regional and seeing that will be painful. A bit of Darwins's theory of natural selection. Those best adapted to the environment will survive. A tough reality to deal with. The natural course of the virus will play out to its predictable end point. Is what it is.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.
