    Deep Recon Scout Ship?

    I usually don't consider buying Origin ships, but I might be forced to make an exception.

    Ship showdown predictions?

    But the Cutlass Black has so much going for it... It's attractive! It has a luxurious bedroom area for each occupant! It has ample showers! It has a great place to take a dump! ... actually it may have that last one, if you count the vacuum of space. But do you know what that will do to your...

    Ship showdown predictions?

    About an hour after you posted, the separation was about the same. I think when I voted it was 1099 (Drake) to 1064 (Origin). Going to be a close race if this keeps up.

    Kind of similar, except a lot of people don't get paid time off. I mean a lot do, but a lot don't. But no appointment is required, and if you have medical insurance they record the number if you want. [1] If you don't, no problem. [2] You get a card that records when you got the jab. [1] I...

    Where were you on 9/11?

    I still lived in Canada back then. I was working from home that day, the phone rang. It was one of my neighbors calling to tell me that a plane had hit one of the towers. I turned on the TV for long enough to realize that by "Plane" she didn't mean a Cessna, when the second plane hit. Inside...

    They don't let me play with sharp pointy things very often anymore, especially if alcohol is involved.

    I wasn't really trying to shave it so much as trim it. Then shit that only happens to me happened and I turned my head to see what the commotion was. Only problem was, I forgot to move the shaver. And it's electric, cuts really fast.

    I overcame my fear of needles (in the arms) when I was 10). Had to go for a glucose stress test. When I was 14, I had to get eye surgery. I was awake and totally conscious for that. Then years later I had a chance to get a steroid shot in my ass... but I discovered I could opt for a...

    There has been political weirdness on both sides of the border, but in Canada the divide is not nearly as political as it is in the US (so it's a little less fun).

    Cats can be smarter. While I was petting a kitten, I asked him what was 2/0. He started purring, i couldn't even count the number. Then after a while he got up, scratched me and ran away. I took that as a divide by 0 error.

    My extended family (which is quite large and spans 2 countries) is like a microcosm of society in general. The vaccination rate is virtually the same. Canadians have a little less hesitancy than Americans. In speaking with them, I have only asked whether they have been vaccinated and why not...

    Sounds like you seriously need longer utensils. I don't cook with my face though, which kind of explains why it needed to be shaved a bit.

    Florida is one of the states that is only reporting every 7 days, so we won't know until I think later today or tomorrow evening. Last week the total reported deaths averaged 335/day. source is John Hopkins university data set. Had to divide the total weekly deaths by 7

    o.O Wait a sec... Someone was showing off, and got caught because it made the news. The last time I was in a hospital, the nurses could open any door even if it was locked.

    Just want to say here, you're not being sanctimonious, nor are you alone. Something isn't quite right. BTW. A probably obvious question popped into my head, how many Americans are vaccinated from the flu. The answer is here... and it's a little eye opening for me...

    I just read an article that referenced this: (and it is provisional... not final) https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7014e1.htm?s_cid=mm7014e1_w COVID is ranked in the third spot. We kind of knew it was going to end up there. Note that influenza and pneumonia, which is what many people...

    I'm not trying to be dismissive, I'm trying not to write a book. The way studies work is complex. Yes there is... I think you understand correctly. Mostly, they don't read all the most up-to-date literature, it depends on their specializations, interests, what the patient is coming to them...

    Hello there

    Welcome to TEST! I thought we did give him a raise? It was a whopping 50% raise too if I remember correctly. BTW, what is 50% of $0.00?
