Especially before you give those blumpkins
you're so famous for.

Only problem there for you is that I can swim very well. :)
I've been surfing/swimming in the ocean most of my life.
I've even jumped off a long pier a few times. lol
 
Face the truth, Joann. You and Jill never talk *to* John
but you both constantly talk *about* him in a mean, gossipy
way. Never once a nice comment. Never!
 
Be nice as you want to others, but your dark side reveals
your potential of evil.

Good memory, Sheldar.

Go get your crossed-eyes examined. John and I have had a conversation here
in the last few days about his new job. I was supportive of him and his new
gig.

Sorry you're too stupid to keep up. Paint fumes must have been eating away
at what few brain cells you ever had.

I can, depending on the bean.

Did you see on the news today? Now Trump and Pence are trading
insults. lol The entertainment factor never ends. ;-D

Oh bullshit. I don't even know if they are Chinese or not? They are
billing themselves as Chinese when they come along and rant about being
victims of anti Chinese racism. Your defensiveness is decidedly racial.

Even when it's warm, people tend to be inside. For work, to eat, to
sleep, etc.
 
On the other hand, Australia does have a flu season, so maybe also a
Covid season. We'll have to wait and see. The effect might be hard to
separate from the effect of relaxing lockdown.

That's why it's a worry that you're a fan of Trump.

He's sacrificing human lives to get re-elected, so you bet he wants to
win.

It's a variety. Like Black Russian tomatoes or jalapeno chiles.

Correct, but here is what he said:
"And I then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one
minute, and is there a way you can do something like that by injection
inside, or almost a cleaning."

You screwball. I was actually backing up your claim of low risk.
The current flu shot has nothing to do with covid-19
 
I *SAID* that many more are dying this year due to no vaccine.
The flu vaccinations don't cover this virus.
I didn't suggest that the flu shots cause it, you dumb clam.
 
Only in RFC does one get such a lame argument based
on bad reading comprehension. Happens often here too.

Yes, he was brainstorming. Why he was doing that in front of TV cameras
I will never know.

Because he has no filters. Whatever pops into his mind comes out of his
mouth.

Wrong. Although it all depends on who you choose to believe.

The news media is always on his ass.
Just today, the funny where he and Pence are trading insults.
I assume that a president could fire the vp since he picked
him in the first place? If so, Pence will be replaced soon.
Watch for it.
 
Then now complaints that Trump played golf the other day
(and during a pandemic). Give me a break.
 
And more, he's threatened to remove the RNC from NC if
they don't promise a large crowd attending. splat
 
Again, I wonder why he would even want to be elected again
and I do think that he doesn't give a crap.
Win or lose for Trump is still a win-win situation.
He's already won all the toys and titles.

Being careful in traffic doesn't guarantee you won't get in an
accident, but I still recommend it.

You've been saying you don't go out much and how people who do go out
much are idiots, etc.

OK, here's my two garlic bread versions:
 
- Cheap/lazy version - just butter a piece or two of toasted
white bread then sprinkle with garlic
powder and a sprinkle of dried parmesan
 
- deluxe version - slice a fresh loaf of italian bread
spread with mix of smashed and minced
garlic mixed with softened butter
sprinkle on fresh parmesan heavily
put slices under broiler until cheese browns

True enough. I just happened to have one. The wife bought it, not
me.
BTW, yes you cut off the top of the bulb but no oil on top is
necessary.

So, the correct term for the hors d'oeuvre: "rum balls" in Danish is ,,Havregrynskugle med rom"?
