Id also give you an upvote on that. Im glad that you made yourself MORE clear because whether we like it or not, we ALL judge this situation we are all in with Covid. Im glad you are not so blind and have made a clear cut division on vaccines. I didnt think you were. But I did judge. Hard not to these days. But it all goes back to my INTIAL post... just wanted to make it clear that Covid does NOT discriminate between young and old. Fit or unfit. It really is how YOUR own personal experience and how YOUR body will react to Covid that is REALITY...

I see that. With the advent of these shytty electrical cars, how can ANYBODY be be passionate about cars anymore???!!! OOPSIES. I see that you own not one, but TWO of these Tesler cars.. I like Telsa. I just dont like Elon. I like EVs. My next car will probably be an EV... lets just see what everybody else will bring to the table... AWESOME!!! I have a 73 or 74 car collection scale 1/18 (always forget how many I got) diecast cars. OK...Im lying. One of those is a resin model. 2015 Hellcat Challenger by GT Spirit. Waiting for the Z06 C8 to come out to complete and end the collection once and for all. Hopefully by Autoart if they make one. Ill have to settle for a resin Stingray from GT Spirit I think it is if no-one makes a Z06. I used to have over 100 of them. Collection was too big. Its kinda too big now. Hope you stick around. I have lurked and read your past posts in here so you are not a stranger to me as I am to you.

@ccap41 And its NOT just the seatbelts. Speed limits. Speed limits are not JUST for CAFE... ABS brakes. Traction control. Airbags. All kinds of other types of crash avoidance systems... There are some that wants us to start heading in an autonomous driving world... But let me tell YOU about numbers since you are such the poker player. FROM the CDC. The SAME link you were PROUDLY fond of showing ME how insignificant 15 000 deaths are for Covid for ages between 30-39... https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/adverse-events.html Curious as to why these low numbers dont happen to be on your radar... If you are going by a "chances are" type of decision: But like I said

Do really give a shyte. Your body, your choice. I just hope to God you DONT catch it. Might not be a walk in the park for you. You could keep that to yourself though. Its good to hear. Not that I gives a shyte what you do or do not do... Just letting it be clear. Because: I dont like it when you put words in my mouth... Sure... But...its a LOT more than JUST a vaccine status at stake...

One last link for @ccap41 Now now. As in now. As of January 12, 2022, 4 p.m. There are more deaths from the older groups in total because its with the older groups that got the hardest at the beginning of the pandemic. But in Quebec, now, 85% of the older groups have been vaccinated 2 doses at least. So, in revenge, its the younger folk that havent been vaccinated that are getting hit hard, now. So, you can feel good about yourself about the deaths being higher for the older folk if you want to, but its not smart to ignore all other data... https://www.quebec.ca/en/health/health-issues/a-z/2019-coronavirus/situation-coronavirus-in-quebec Distribution of confirmed cases by age group GraphTable Age group % of confirmed cases 0-9 years 9.5 10-19 years 12.6 20-29 years 17.7 30-39 years 15.9 40-49 years 15.3 50-59 years 12.2 60-69 years 7.2 70-79 years 4.0 80-89 years 3.5 90 years or more 2.0 Previous12Next Cumulative data.

In Quebec, the 'unvaccinated' will be taxed, will have to pay a significant amount of money because the unvaccinated are causing these latest hospital turn outs which have put a burden on our health staff and the medical help that others need that isnt Covid related. https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/quebec-to-table-bill-to-tax-the-unvaccinated-amid-pushback-from-opposition-parties-doctors-1.5739369 Low and behold https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/thousands-sign-up-for-1st-dose-of-covid-19-vaccine-as-quebec-threatens-to-tax-the-unvaxxed-1.5736806 More than 7,000 people registered for their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine Tuesday, amid threats by Quebec officials to tax the unvaccinated.

Your body, your choice. @ccap41 It doesnt matter if one 95 year old has survived Covid and one 25 year has not. Hey, more power to you if you feel comfy that only 15 000 folk died from Covid aged 30-39 and folk older than than have higher numbers... You like to play the numbers game. Its all good. Problem is, you might not get to tell us if you DO catch it. I know. I know. The numbers tell you otherwise... It cant POSSIBLY happen to you... https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/montreal-area-man-who-died-of-covid-19-at-39-was-unvaccinated-but-had-just-booked-his-first-dose-1.5588192 https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/after-anti-vax-sentiment-seeps-in-three-die-and-a-tight-knit-community-near-montreal-is-torn-apart-1.5679029 LAVAL, QUE. -- When COVID-19 killed a 39-year-old Laval athlete in early September, it sent a shock through his tight-knit Greek community. Stefanos Govas was unvaccinated, and his girlfriend told media that his death had been avoidable—he’d been planning to get the shot soon anyway, she said. But tragic as Govas’s death was, it was only one part of a bigger series of losses that took two months to play out and have torn that community apart. https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/after-anti-vax-sentiment-seeps-in-three-die-and-a-tight-knit-community-near-montreal-is-torn-apart-1.5679029 https://abcnews.go.com/US/30-year-man-dies-attending-covid-party-thinking/story?id=71731414 https://www.timescolonist.com/local-news/father-urges-people-to-get-vaccinated-after-daughter-29-dies-of-covid-19-4692280 A grieving father who will bury his daughter this week is urging people to get vaccinated, warning that COVID-19 is a merciless disease And I could do this MORE than 15 000 times... As THAT number is ONLY US numbers. Its only numbers until it happens to you... Which I do NOT wish upon. Life is too short for me to discuss this any further... Do as you wish. I just wanted to point out that Covid does NOT discriminate between the young or old. Fit or unfit.

Im happy to hear the good news. Strep is a hassle, and it could lead to something more severe, but its better than the alternative!

B-52... Its a living legend. Some of them have been refurbished in 2013-2015 and are expected to be in service in 2050. 2050!!! First flight was in 1952. Went into service in 1955. If one does the math, the B-52 would be in service for 100 years!!!

Im sorry to bust your bubble, but there are all kinds of young, fit, healthy folk that have had serious complications from Covid. There IS no vast majority when it comes to how YOUR PERSONAL interaction with Covid will be. But its OK. I really dont care about all this. Im exhausted from all this shyte we are all going through. I only truly care about your well being. Even if I never met you in person for real. I hope to God you never catch it. I hope to God NONE of us catch it. But some of us will probably catch it. It will probably stay with us forever. I just hope when and if we catch it, Covid-19 will be just a nuisance rather than an emergency hospital visit. I just wanted to point out that Covid-19 hits hard on some people and Covid-19 does NOT discriminate between young or old, fir or unfit. Covid-19 shocks the body and its how YOUR body reacts or overreacts to course correct. And no science or math could predict what YOUR body will react to it. Its safe to assume the old and the unfit will be hit hard, but that is just a logical statement true for ANY disease. NOT just for Covid... Pretty mild up here as well. It was super cold 2 days ago. It will be super cold this week-end. But par for the course THIS time of year here. Oh...no snow though. And THAT is NOT par for the course. Sure, it kinda snowed yesterday and today, barely an inch in 2 days. I really dont know why I dont spring for a V8 Challenger....

I hope that you will never get it. I hope that you never got it. Its a nasty thing for some people. Which is what I wanna say: Has NOTHING to do with your age, fitness level for it to be a nasty thing. And nasty being for mild cases. Downright deadly for some... You could be a 95 year old, smoking 5 cigarette packs a day while welcoming shots of whiskey when not smoking and be asymptomatic and you could be a 25 year old decathlon athlete and die from it... I aint judging you by telling you this. I aint telling you to get vaccinated by telling you this. Im just making sure that you understand the rules of Covid more clearly. Because there IS a misconception about Covid. To this day. 2 years after. Especially when Delta is still around...

I see...a stain on that dress.
-
I like the stance and the hot pink and white top on this Caddy. Im not so sure about the headers/exhaust and blower coming out of the hood like that. Still a beautiful picture and a beautiful Cadillac otherwise.
-
I also like a paint job like this on a Cadillac.
-
Love that Cadillac. Im not sure about that firetruck red paint job on it nor the wheel choice. The wheel choice is fine, I guess its the gold that I dont like. Love the stance though. Id want that Caddy in black rather than red. Even in matte black. The wheels would be in black replacing the gold part. If it had to be red, I choose a dark candy apple red. And Id replace the gold part on the wheels with black again.

On Friday, I had the sniffles and a scratchy throat, and I feared the worst. But nothing came of it. During winter, every winter, I always seem to get the sniffles and a scratchy throat for a couple of days sometime during the season, so I didnt panic. These sniffles and the throat thing only lasted not even for a full day. I didnt push the panic button to cancel my rendez-vous for the booster and thank-fully my wife and I are good for now. Until we need a 4rth. But the word on the street is that once the Omicron wave subsides, the pandemic will be on its start of it winding down. Yeah! Like that! But hopefully NOT what @David has proved what @balthazar responded to me.
-
Are you sure its Covid and not the flu. Did you get tested? Im assuming you did test positive for you to say you got Covid, its just the wording you chose, "it seems", leaves it ambiguous. Hoping you get on your feet fast and yeah, you will be super immune. That is the good news!!!
-
"They" dont want us to know. "They" dont want us in the loop. Its a conspiracy...
-
Toyoter ownership is like a cult. LOL
-
Im kinda bummed out and disappointed. Just a sore shoulder for my wife and I but nothing much else to report. But why the sad? I was promised by some people out there that getting THE Covid vaccine would make me transmit 5G WiFi. All for free. Well, the fee being that I got THE Covid vaccine. Im on my 3rd vaccine now, but no 5G WiFi. What gives???!!! I SPECIFICALLY got THE Covid vaccine JUST so I could transmit 5G internet myself. Internet services are way expensive in Canada...
-
Ive had a few of these kinds of conversations with Toyoter folk myself in the past. And the denial and refusal to accept to the eventual bewilderment and shock as described by @David was eye-dentical!
-
The wife and I both got are 3rd shot 3 hours ago. Like @trinacriabob The 1st two were Pfizer but our 3rd was Moderna. We didnt have a choice as for some reason in Quebec, all folk above 30 years old receives Moderna for their 3rd. Hey, Covid! Here's mud in your eye! Hopin' we dont have to go to 4.
