This virus crap is getting outta hand...

 And then, in the end, they created 
a disease that killed them all...  
 
 
TheGuardian.com - An antiviral drug used to treat patients with Covid-19 may be causing mutations in the virus and fuelling the evolution of new variants, scientists have said. Molnupiravir, which is also sold under the brand name Lagevrio, is designed to mutate coronavirus to destruction, but researchers found evidence that the virus can sometimes survive the treatment, leading to mutated versions that occasionally spread to other people.
There is no evidence molnupiravir has produced more dangerous variants of Covid, but scientists said the mutations increased the genetic diversity of the virus in the wild and provided more options for future evolution. “People have some concerns about molnupiravir and to some sense this makes those more concrete,” said Dr Theo Sanderson, the lead author on the study and a postdoctoral researcher at the Francis Crick Institute in London. “We know these viruses can still be alive following a significant number of mutations and they can still be transmissible in some cases.”

Yeah - it's the same guy. This isn't phony. He did 
anti-war, anti-German editorial cartoons during the war 
before he started doing the kids books.

Neighbors really jumping the gun, but at least they 
have a sense of humor about it. There's a lot of 
driveway drinking going on at that house.

When it first aired back in the '60's, The Flintstones was 
the very first show on TV - animated or otherwise - to show 
a married couple in the same bed together.

Let's see if any of my old time hippy buddies remember 
where this was. I was there in 1973.

So it appears that Menedez personally (not a PAC or a group or a corporation - he personally handed it to him) gave Fetterman Five G's CASH in a bag for his election run but that never raised any suspicions of any kind with and election official anywhere, ever.
Fetterman said Monday that he intends to return the $5,000 that embattled Mendendez donated to him for his 2022 campaign. Joe Calvello, a spokesperson for Fetterman, told The Messenger: “We are in the process of returning the money in envelopes stuffed with $100 bills”—the same storage method allegedly used by Menendez to store hundreds of thousands of dollars in ill-gotten gains.
 
 Now you're gonna tell me everything really is on the up-and-up and the game ain't rigged before the fact. Go ahead - I'll be over here...

My uniform shoes in High School in the late 60's. 
Some people called them 'Clarkes'. We called 'em 
'Desert boots'. No idea why...

Gettin' close to 'Paying attention time'

  2. Our shoe of choice in the late 60's was either low top black converse or bates floaters. They were like your desert boots.

  5. Desert boots were based on shoes made for the North African campaign during WWII, from what the rumors say.

  6. Kemp opened Georgia first...but then he conspired to help Stacey Abrams and others STEAL the 2020 election for Biden...so there's that.

  7. There's a Clarkes Shop at the St Augustine outlet mall, I just purchased a pair of the desert boots two months ago. I hadn't seen those in forty years, so naturally I have been wearing mine on the weekends! Oh, more comics, please...
