COVID research: Masks, Vaccines, Social Distancing, Treatments

I take metformin. Maybe that's why I never got the virus any symptoms. :think:

Republicans behaving badly

Yeah, it makes no sense. A Bronze Star is a hell of a tribute to the courage and action of the owner. Why would anyone need to claim a second one (which it seems highly improbable that anyone could earn two)? If he wasn't in combat, how the heck did he get a Bronze Star? Oh, Wikipedia says it's &quo...

Plus, the cord keeps you from losing the board. I use a cord on my boogie board, but it's a wrist strap.

A berd, I haz one. This bad boy is the boss of the whole section of the river. The guys out there scoffed. Have you seen the bald eagles flying up and down the river?

We have, but he's way bigger than they are.

Anyway ...

Anthropology

How or why the Neanderthals and Denisovans disappeared about 40,000 years ago is the subject of speculation.

Sadly, I think we were very, very mean to them, to the point where we wiped them from the face of the planet. :blackeye:

Up Here in Bathysphere (or wherever it is)

Oh, I have a few regrets. And I'm still glad my mom passed 20 years ago, which gave me the chance to rebuild my relationship with my dad. My wife was a huge influence on that, too also. When my mom died, my boys were 6 and 3, and she was diehard determined that they were going to spend a lot of time...

Corrosive stories like this come out after a death. It will be impossible for you to do this, but those of us that love and respect you have to tell you from personal experience "let it go". Oh, absolutely, Bill. I'm just telling them because they are a little interesting and strange. The...

Here's another painful memory, but it shows my relationship with my parents. My best friend Stan was admitted to dental school, but he didn't have the money. He knew my parents had some money, and he floated the idea of borrowing from them. But I told him that if I had anything to do with asking, th...

Yes, well ... he did still have me arrested by the police twice before I graduated high school. For many years, he and I had a really rough relationship. I couldn't count the number of times we yelled at each other, most recently around 2010 or so. I loved him, and I respected him, but we didn't get...

So like I said, he had dinner and he was talking with the staff, animated and watching the Tee Vee (and saying "the hell with Trump" and I am quoting my sister on that), but when they came back ten minutes later with his ice cream, he was gone. Have I ever told y'all how much he loved ice ...

I'm the only one who can tell that story ... He lived too long. :batting: He outlived everyone in his generation - his wife and only brother passed in 2005, and all his cousins and friends and neighbors and former shipmates are also long gone. He was born in 1928, when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. T...

I'm doing okay. I'm super proud of what we did over the last 10 or 15 years to take care of him. My fambly would descend on his apartment and suddenly there were 5 people in the joint, and he loved every minute of it. We'd be cooking for him and fixing anything broken, play board games, watch the Te...

He's gone, between dinner and dessert tonight he simply stopped, which is exactly what he wanted. I'm sad and relieved. Events will become clearer over the next few days. No need to console me, I'm going to focus on being happy for him. I love y'all but I shall be AFK for a little while now. .

George Santos (R-NY) and his imaginative (but dishonest) résumé

I ask myself, could I do drag, or could I have done it in the past? And the answer is no. Not at any point in my life would I have been willing to wear women's clothes, of any kind, for any purpose - and I was a pet store Santa once, for charity. I'm as straight as the shortest distance between two ...
