A little dab will do you.
It looks like he’s hanging upside down.
RUH-ROH!.................Good thing I just lost 35 pounds!................

Sky blue is racist if you are forced to live in a city.
I posted this on a previous thread about Mexican Beer Virus:
Here’s an interesting article about age, weight and Wuflu:
“We found patients younger than 50 years of age hospitalized with COVID-19 without diabetes or hypertension had mean BMI greater than those older than 50 years of age, with BMI 43.1 (95%CI 34.5 - 51.7) kg/m2 vs 30.1 (95%CI 27.7 - 32.5) kg/m2 (p=0.02).”
A BMI of 43 is someone who’s 5’5” and 260 lbs.
Oh well. Even though I’ve lost 10 pounds in the last month or so, I’m probably still screwed.
You have my word that neither your nor I are going to die from this virus.
Something else...but not this thing. :)
Neighbor has a son who works in Phila Pa Hospital as an RN. The only Twenty something that died of COVID was between 400 and 500 pounds.
Get cancer. It really knocks your weight down.
ICU nurse working the COVID wards during the height of NYC’s crisis told me almost every last person in all the four wards she worked (ventilator patients all) was morbidly obese.
Yes, it’s not just being technically “obese”, it’s the “morbidly obese” line which is the truly dangerous risk factor.
I figured that out over 3 weeks ago & I went to a one room school-—in the late 40’s & early 50’s.
Does this make me more expert than all the ‘Experts”???
Little known is Newton’s 4th law:
A body that remains at rest tends to get fat.
Being retired and at rest, I can offer proof.
Should rename this thing the Single Payer Healthcare Virus.
Just think; if no vaccines end up being effective and this thing hangs around for a few years, we’ll have a planet of young and/or healthy people.
On Thanksgiving I tipped the scales at 159 pounds, the heaviest ever for me. I started riding bicycles and was riding a trainer and using Zwift all winter. I have lost 26 pounds. I really didn’t need to lose any of it but according to most BMI charts at 155 pounds I’m overweight. This is silly even at 159 I’m skinny. At 133 I’m actually thinking I need to put a few back on.
Hmm, wonder if blue (and some red) state lockdowns, including closing responsibly run gyms, parks, and beaches could make people watch soap operas all day and make people fatter....
Fantastic Movie. Food shortages because they are salting the earth.
Sadly, they probably couldn’t make Airplane today (like a lot of other movies).
Blazing Saddles being first.
