Day #3 of quarantine. Wife still wants to kill me.  Feeling just fine, O2 is at 98% this morning, temp at 96.8, blood pressure is good.

Have you seen the bill Senator Amy has introduced?

If passed and signed to Government will become the official arbiter of the truth on social media.

Wow, that's a lot of D, I've been taking 1,000 a day and yesterday upped that to 2,000.

David Cross has been at the forefront of examining ballot images here in the state of Georgia. Here is a sample of what he has found.  He can be followed on Twitter (@GABallots)

You have never heard me approve of mask mandates, lock downs or travel restrictions.  In fact, I am also opposed to mandatory vaccines, or even bribing people to get vaccines.  But except for a few people for whom the vaccine is medically contraindicated, I think reasonable people would choose to get the vaccine.  I'm glad I did.  And if you think that is "virtue signaling", at least I am not stuck at home under quarantine.  If YOU don't get a vaccine, then YOU are at a higher risk of getting the virus than I am.

On the other hand, if too few people do get the vaccine, and it continues to run it's course, then more variants will emerge, and I will again be put at higher risk.  Just not as high a risk as those that didn't get the vaccine.

As for allowing hundreds of thousands to illegally enter our country, I'd as soon shoot them on site rather that give them amnesty.  See how quickly the flood would turn into a trickle after that.  A side benefit would be all the legal liberal citizens that might be horrified into leaving the country.  Mexico would probably have to close THEIR border to keep them out.

Almost like the flu 

A friend and his wife from my EAA Chapter caught COVID at a large church camp meeting event. She went into the hospital on Wednesday with pneumonia and is recovering expecting to go home today. He stayed home to ride it out. Yesterday he got scared a bit by going to take a shower and blacking out in the shower. He's monitored his O2 and it has never gone below 94%. He did run a fever earlier in the week. He had diarrhea, which I feel was his undoing. Probably wasn't eating well and keeping hydrated and that took him down.  He finally decided he should go to the ER. Being in no shape to drive, I went to go get him. I masked up and gloved up and had him do the same. He rode in the back passenger seat on the way to the ER, about 10-15 minute ride and he got out and went into the ER.

My wife totally freaked out about the whole thing, asking why 911 wasn't called to take him in an ambulance. Personally, I think spinning up a paramedic team and ambulance would have been wasteful. Anyhow, I'm now in isolation in the bedroom for a bit. I can get tested this weekend to see. I fond it highly doubtful that I will have contracted it. When I got home I stripped down and rubbed myself down with sanitizer.

So here I sit.
