Kathy Griffin is a hack, D-list comedian. Comparing her desperate attempt to be noticed to the actions of elected officials is not an equal comparison. There are supposed to be higher standards for elected officials- at least there used to be.

Ha. I think a bigger problem is the inability to recognize irony. Seriously, some of you guys might want to take a minute or two between ‘copy’ and ‘paste’ and give a little thought to whether or not the clever little meme you’re about to share applies only to your enemies.

Like election results?

No, i'm sure you're right. Those folks all looked intelligent and unbiased- not at all like a bunch of ginned up lunatics.

Rams- sushi.

Ha. Sure, those were a bunch of research scientists that stormed the capitol. Classic.

Post the link. I would like to purchase some to sell at my store.... Thank you or PM me if you would rather

I'm not peddling anything. That was Apexer, not me.

Ha. That was YOUR link, not mine. Next time, look past the clickbait title.

They're available on Amazon- might take a week or so to arrive.

By any chance, did you read the article and interview that you linked? This is copied and pasted from it, without edits: ICT®: You’re fully vaccinated. So, when you leave your house, do you often wear a mask? Kavanagh: I wear a mask when I leave the house, I avoid indoor settings. Now, if I’m outside, when nobody’s around, I’ll be carrying a mask, not necessarily having a mask on. Certainly, when you exercise, you can’t wear a mask. But on the other hand, when you’re exercising, you’re spreading a lot of large droplet particles which won’t dissipate in the air, and you’re projecting them further. So, if you’re exercising, don’t run by someone on the sidewalk. You should be staying at least 30 feet away from people. And if you can’t do that, then don’t exercise outdoors. Get yourself a stationary bike and exercise indoors. This Delta variant, again, is much more infectious—1000 times more viral particles. We need to respect it. And we need to respect others. And that’s the key. Our society needs to start respecting others. And that means not just worrying about your rights but worrying about the safety of other people.

OK. Well, you obviously look for the best available information, and not just someone who tells you what you want to hear.

Right. But again, any mask is better than none at all. Think of it like rain gear- Wearing 'Waterproof' is best. Wearing 'Water Resistant' is ok. Wearing neither is dumb.

No mask is 100% effective. Any mask is better than no mask. Are you saying that you have not been able to find any kind of mask aside from the cotton/cloth types?

...or smart enough to wear a non-cloth mask, like the ones recommended by the CDC.

Football games are outdoors, for the most part. I don't think there are currently any mask mandates for outdoor events- i could be wrong about that. Mask mandates are impossible to enforce. Unfortunately, they rely on peoples' sense of decency and concern for their fellow community members.

Ha. OK, that's what i thought.

Who'd they pick in 2016?

Great idea- we should let our enemies pick our President.

I installed a tankless water heater to make it easier to winterize between visits. An unanticipated cost was insulation- local code forced me to use spray foam in the ceiling. That was costly- around $4k if i remember right. Also due to code, I was not allowed to have a wood stove as the primary heat source- i use electric baseboard instead.

My experience was similar to First-Light. My place is 20' by 30' with a loft/sleeping area, living/dining/kitchen area and bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. I had the shell of the cabin built by an Amish crew and finished the buildout myself. The cost for the shell build was about $20K. Additional expenses were the site prep/excavation/septic, around $20K. Well drilling cost about another $9k. Bringing power to the cabin didn't cost anything as there was a pole close enough. The buildout cost around another $10k. All of this was done in 20215/16.

Same for the hospital where i work. And, this is an area with over 80% of the local community being vaccinated. While anyone, vaxxed or unvaxxed can get the virus, the majority of hospital admissions/intubations/ICU admissions/deaths are among the unvaxxed.

I changed the battery and it fired right up. I’ll keep it on a tender over the winter.

Thanks. Kinda what I was expecting to hear. I’ll replace it today.

How long do you all typically get out of your four wheeler battery ? Mine doesn’t seem to be holding a charge. It’s probably about five years old or so. I put very few hours on it yearly.
