I've noticed a general malaise as of late

In case you hadn't noticed [or cared], I haven't posted anything in over a week. Not that that's anything earth shattering, but I have noticed that many of the other blogs I occasionally read (seemingly less and less as time goes by), haven't been posting for an even longer time.

One of my favorite bloggers, and fellow MCL'er, Susan C hasn't posted in over two weeks, and it's been over three weeks since she posted on her other blog, Open Mouth, Insert Fork. Even Becky hasn't posted since 9/27, and I've never known her to be at a loss for words.

Plus there are others who have been just as lacks, which I won't even mention. [If you're interested you can click on the links to the right to see what I'm talking about.]

weatherNow I don't know about the others, but as for me, I just don't seem to have the desire to post that much any more. I know I'm posting something today, but that doesn't mean much. It's just too damn freakin' hot outside (the perils of living in SoCal) to do much of anything else. Sitting in the house with the A/C on is much more preferable.

Maybe it's the just weather, and the fact I hate this time of year, but blogging is difficult. Trying to constantly come up with something interesting [even not interesting sometimes] or informative to write about can be pretty stressful, and I hate writing about all the unpleasant things I could write about. So instead I'd prefer to just not write anything, and let everyone guess what may or may not be going on.

Besides, I've been doing this for almost 4 years now, which if you perused other similar blogs [which I have], you will notice is well beyond the norm.

But still I go on. I only wish I knew why. :)

Well, I was getting worried about you. I did notice. If you didn't write something in the next few days I was going to email you to see what's going on.

Some of us are interested in what you say, even if some of it is over the top.

Yeah I'll bet you were Alan. :)

And Gerry it's you that has been absent. Did you forget your motorcycle adventure last weekend. And where were you yesterday? We missed you! Still I haven't been that interested in riding lately (been going to the gym more), especially riding hard. We'll see how today goes.

Vaccine Mandates, what are they good for?

Not much, that's for sure! Simply showing evidence of receiving a Covid-19 vaccine (whether fake or not), does not mean you are protected from getting Covid-19, nor spreading it, if infected. We are all different, and too many of us, i.e. people who are immunocompromised/ immunosupressed, the elderly, or others for various reasons, do not [cannot] mount an immune response as good as younger and healthier individuals. What is evidence of immunity is a quantitative antibody test showing you have developed antibodies, and to what degree, either from natural immunity or the vaccine.  That is what we should be testing for. That is what is important. But for too long, many, i.e. the FDA, doctors, and other health experts discouraged people (and still are) from getting antibody tests, because there was little knowledge about what level of antibodies are needed to impart immunity to the virus. That of course is true, to some extent, but how can we ever find out [learn] the answer to that q

History IS repeating itself

I didn't grow up during the rise and fall of Hitler and Nazi Germany, so for me to claim it feels like those are the times we are living in now, must be taken with a grain of salt. But I have seen enough movies, and read enough history to know, if the times we're living in now are not akin to the rise of a Nazism and Facism in Europe in the 1930's and 1940's, then we're not far off. If you can't see the parallels with Nazi Germany, then you must be living in a different country than me. Republicans and other right wing extremists will stop at nothing to subvert the will of the majority, forcing their beliefs, that they are the superior race and have been appointed by God, to impose their will on America, while they blame all our problems on immigrants, blacks and Jews. As I speak, Mitch McConnell, and his minions are raising roadblocks to all legislation designed to help average Americans under the guise of fiscal responsibility. They condone violent and verba

Open letter to all Democrats

Stop the nonsense! Continuing to go after Trump, without any hope of getting a conviction, does nothing more than provide Republicans with an obstructionist dialogue (now that they have come up with the unconstitutional talking point) in addition to giving Trump much needed publicity, when we should be ignoring him. It's the pure definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result! Instead Democrats need to be laser focused on what is important to all Americans, i.e. healthcare, Social Security and Medicare, infrastructure reform, the Covid-19 vaccine rollout, to name just a few. And when you do talk about Trump, simply steer the conversation as to how the Trump administration botched everything, how Trump is responsible for the deaths of 400,000+ Americans, due to his inaction and the down playing of the pandemic, plus the deaths of 2 Capitol policeman during the insurrection Trump provoked and incited on January 6, 2021.
