Hey, wait a minute.
Did you just call me a creature?

It’s just the flu, bro.
Good news in Texas - Governor Abbott rolled back the draconian mandatory mask rules imposed in some Democrat counties. So I am thankful that lawmakers are slowly allowing us to have some of our constitutional freedoms again.
Herd Immunity - Apparently the science around herd immunity is settled. It is really settled and not just global warming “settled”. Herd immunity levels are known for many viruses and these levels are a function of how many healthy people the average sick person infects. It is a broad range right now but herd immunity for CV occurs in the range of 29% to 74% having antibodies.

Worldometer - numbers of newly infected are on the way down. Politicians must surely relax things now - right?
Perhaps it's because all of his wild predictions are vaporizing as each day passes. I reckon he's just thrashing about in fits that he was wrong.
Hi.
Do you remember the flame wars circa 20 years ago?
The Q, Flu Bros and others are mild compared to the early days of FR. Got a couple of death threats and threats to sue.
Among other nefarious implications.
Those were the days my friend...

Why have the snake wear a mask? Masks are no good, right? Jake the Gadsden Snake can't be told to wear a mask! MAGA hat, sure...
In my best Ernest T. Bass voice: “Creachster? Who you callin’ a creachster?”
Sounds good! Ok been a fun visit. Thanks!
No, I wasn’t around...I assume these flame wars were over who the Republican nominee should have been if they were 20 years ago?
Definitely prefer a hat to a mask.
We’ve had 87 WuFlu deaths to date in my county of 1.2 million.
I have a friend whose doctor told her that his hospital has 1000 beds and respirators at the ready. They’ve actually used 25.
Just sayin’.
Do you say the same about our U.S. soldiers wounded or killed in action? Too bad, the idiots signed up for it?
Share with us your chosen career path. Your experience would help to explain your dismissive assertions.
The worst I remember was when Arnold Schwarzenegger jumped into California’s Gubenatorial Recall Election to run against Tom McClintock (R) and Bustemante (D). Rush weighed in to warn Californians against Arnold, but Californians were sure Arnold was what California needed. In those days a FReeper could call another a “Tomikaze” and it was just good-natured fun. But to come back with “Schwarzenazi” was, evidently, beyond the pale. Out-of-state FReepers were asked to butt out of the flame wars (to no avail, of course).
History has since borne out how Schwarzenegger governed.
This ain’t quite that bad. ...Not yet!
Missed ya.
(Rush warned folks on his show by pointing out Arnold’s ties to the Kennedy’s and who would likely advise him as Governor. To my knowledge. Rush is not a FReeper.)
Kudos to you GrannyAnn. You've framed a powerful meme.

Hi.
More about how FR would be structured, etc.
I’m surprised the forum survived.

I started in the Palm Beach Pokey days.
There were some doozies as well as some Hilarious opus postings.
Truth is a harsh mistress to those taken by deceit.
You’re right. I apologize.
