    Senate Republicans threatening, in fact gloating, to shut down government in order to stop Covid vaccination.

    Just got back from Hawaii. Felt exactly like Oregon to me with regards to masks. When I was in Northern California/east bay it was a shit show. Nobody cares. Which is surprising to me. Idaho is a joke so that doesn’t surprise me

    Ya we just spent 4 days down in SF and was very impressed with the mask usage and social distancing. Felt very safe.

    It was trippy in London. Barely anyone wore masks. On the tube and bus, you were supposed to and it was maybe 80% compliance.

    Indoor spots, maybe 10% people wore masks. Outdoors, even in crowded areas, maybe 5%.

    Trippy to have employees at stores and restaurants not be masked up.

    Every time I go in my local Tigard Costco 100% of everyone in the joint is masked. I wouldn't go anywhere where everyone wasn't masked, must be 100% or we don't shop there.

    Is Barfo ugly? Let me tell you how ugly. The other day Barfo and I went into a bar to have a drink. The bartender takes one look at us and asks me "What'll it be? Oh, and here's some peanuts for your monkey." He don't get no respect.

    Wife & I both feel variants are just something we will live with for a time per what the scientist are saying. We have been vaccinated w/boosters.
    I remember standing in line at Jefferson HS with my mom getting the sugar cube vac's for polio and she was one to go door to door for March of Dimes.

    Used to be 3 days for vaccinated, 1 day for unvaccinated. Now no difference.

    That's logical considering how little we know about Omicron...
