Anyone have plans on getting or building one? Interesting ballistic specs.
-
Right, no police, no order. That is what these people who are protesting are now saying they want. lol. Did not post specifics, but no doubt in my mind what would occur.
-
Maybe it is time for some social experiments...... Let Minneapolis, St Louis, and Chicago defund and remove the police. Give these geniuses what they want. I think I know what would happen, but maybe I would be proven wrong.

When I had my kids in for the flu they said they were just starting to see people who had gotten the flu shot coming in with the flu. So the flu shot they have been using for years still isn't completely effective. Last time I had a flu shot was in 05, I got pretty bad off that fall/winter and ended up with a bad case of bronchitis. Will definitely be interesting to see how things work out. To see if the guinea pigs they are giving trials to now develop an immune response and what kind of side effects they have. Sure sounding like there could be 100 million doses ready this fall for the most vulnerable Americans.

Both my son and 14 year old daughter had the flu back in November. Schools here are like a fast track to spreading any type of crud going around. Our oldest(Christina) and her husband and our granddaughter also had the flu but they had it in January. The strain Christina had was not the same strain Will and Allison had. Luckily Catrina didn't get it and neither did I. We have had 63 in our county get it and 1 fatality. Catrina has had one nursing home employee test positive.

Tennessee numbers while not seeing significant ongoing spikes continue to rise. The new infected rate seems to be between two and three times the rate of daily recoveries. Total dead over 400, and hospitalizations approaching 2000. Hope the second wave some experts are calling to hit this fall does not happen. Restrictions being loosened posing major risks for Tennessee's elderly and vulnerable. Too many people have this and despite the awareness don't know they have it. Catrina had a nurse this morning that called in, throwing up and stomach pain. That nurse worked yesterday but also works another job with hospice, no telling what they may have been exposed to and possibly exposed the residents to.

Haven't seen any here yet, took it kinda slow especially around the edges when I mowed our clover and last year's bean plots.
-
Not sure how I would feel about having bears here. Coyotes are plenty bad enough. No trophy rocks or minerals allowed here anymore due to cwd being within 10 miles of our county line. Kinda stinks since that is a great place to catch activity on camera, we are about 20 miles away from the county line where cwd is, making it nearly 30 miles to the nearest case and that county only had 2.

Floyd's brother called for peace yesterday while amongst protestors saying the violence won't bring back his brother. Maybe that will get some play where it is needed and help tone this down. Unfortunately some who seek to exploit this man's death for their agenda likely won't stop instigating. Sad to see the low in our society that serve to misguide and confuse reality. Twitter is a horrible platform for this, fact checking the president yet allowing totally inaccurate and flat out false content to fan the flames and incite these lawless acts. Easy to see why today's kids are lost and confused, really is disgusting.

Sad sad situation.....

Looks good Jerry. I mowed my clover last week. I have my soybeans, will be prepping those plots in the coming weeks. Stay safe, hope you are away from the madness.

Will there be an approved vaccine before the end of 2020? So, say a covid vaccine is approved and available this fall or winter. Do you take it or no? If you have serious health concerns that put you at increased risk for complications do you lean more towards taking it? Think I will be taking a pneumonia vaccination for the first time ever in my life but seriously doubt even if my cardiologist strongly suggests it that I would trust a covid vaccine that has been rushed through. Given the past history of the efficacy of flu vaccines, and the known that this coronavirus has been able to mutate makes me skeptical of how effective a vaccine may even be.

Should work. I like the recoveries where I can use the tractor bucket, most places I can't get it in i probably would not be able to get your Gator in either.
-
Haven't watched your clip, but Thank you to all those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you as well to their families.
-
Sounds about right. Our old box needs some work, took down and rebuilt.
-
That's cool. Should be a few on the ground around here by now, no cams out yet here.

Christina tested negative. Catrina has no residents at her nursing home positive and no positives to this point on her staff aside from the one they already knew about.
-
Tennessee scored an F on social distancing. Made it to town yesterday to Lowe's and tractor supply. Tractor supply store had no customers. Lowe's had several, most wearing masks, some of the Lowe's employees had masks on around their necks or under their nose. Kind of funny to me seeing people wearing the cheap cotton masks or bandanas in their cars. I will continue to avoid Walmart for the stupid people. Catrina said it was bad last time she went, majority of customers in the store were disregarding the arrows in the aisles marking direction and were not social distancing. Numbers here are still up and down but certainly not flat. Have not heard results on Christina's test yet.

Wife got word yesterday afternoon late from the state epidemiologist that she has a housekeeper at her nursing home that has tested positive. Housekeeper had stomach bug symptoms and NO fever when she got tested last Thursday or Friday. Nightmare for the wife began after that call, within a short time her phone was being blown up. Rapid testing of all residents and staff start today. They had done well under the stay at home orders, did not take long after restrictions were eased, just what she feared. Christina, our oldest daughter went in to a clinic with stomach bug symptoms and no fever Saturday, they tested her, but don't know her results yet. She was sure it was not covid and planned to come visit us, glad she didn't. Numbers here last I checked have slowed down, however hospitalizations are still growing each day. I need to go to tractor supply and Lowe's sometime this week. Seriously thinking about using my scentlok face mask, supposedly activated carbon is somewhat effective for virus protection.

I have said that from early on. There were too many liberal members of congress screaming impeachment before the man even started the job. Was a no brainier that there would be issues with obama loyal holdovers.
-
Not saying it is spam Martin. But, there are tons of petitions going around asking for personal information. Basically the way what you posted reads imo from the pastor, Fauci has blood on his hands over money going to line his own pockets. That is a strong accusation to make. Maybe the lawyer/pastor is privy to information that Trump isn't or hasn't gotten yet. If in fact the above is true, Fauci should be in jail. Guess a bigger question in my mind is, why aren't the dems screaming about this and trying to somehow link it back to Trump in a negative light.
-
Seems I recall a question coming up in one of the press conferences with regards to Fauci's appearance of a disagreement with Trump on the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine when the pressers were still going on daily. Best as I recall Fauci said more testing was needed at that point to agree with Trump's assessment and praise he was giving for the treatment using that drug. That seems to have been quite a long time back, but was probably in reality less than a month ago. Fauci and Trump had the appearance of somewhat differing views due to the nature of the questions and how the reporters asked. Fauci was not present at the following day's conference. The question was then pressed in the absence of Fauci as to whether Trump had issues with Fauci to which he said no. It was even rumored that Trump had fired Fauci and the media went nuts. There have also been questions around Robert Redfield. In my opinion, social distancing is NOT popular with some "religious" leaders, many of their loyal congregation have not continued tithing and that hits them directly in their own pockets. Maybe the money trail could be viewed in that direction as well. Fauci has not been so popular in the eyes of many for his stance on social distancing. Sorry, but just my honest opinion Martin, I am not particularly fond of some of those high profile type pastors. With whatever, I have confidence that the Trump admin is much more aware of any corruption that may be taking place and am sure they will deal with it accordingly. Don't think a petition in this situation is useful in any way other than to get signed up to be on the receiving end of more spam.

Glad to hear things worked out so well for you Frank. Congrats on the new house. Covid numbers here the past few days seem to be slowing. Actually had a negative 2 in the deaths column yesterday, not sure how that is possible unless they are admitting an error from the day prior. All nursing homes in the state are in the process of being tested now, staff and residents all to be tested.

Nice finds. Bottom middle is a heck of a deer. Good luck catching up with him next fall.
-
Yeah dunno Martin, I am not familiar with Staver or as to what his purpose is in this. Seems extreme caution is in order in knowing what to believe. At one point claims were made that Trump was only touting hydroxychloroquine because he had interests in the pharmaceutical companies that produce it. There are conflicting reports from the nih and testing from other countries on some of these treatments. Seems some physicians let political influence dictate their treatments of their patients and many let big pharma influence what they prescribe. Sad when people are allowed to die as a result...... I revert back to my initial response, I am sure Trump would be aware of the claims in your post and if there was any validity to the charges, seriously doubt he would keep Fauci on.
