Gromnir

it doesn't. only other explanation is natural resistance. HA! Good Fun!

am not quite sure how he managed the 80% resistance number. am sure WHO and the cdc would love to hear 'bout his natural resistance to a novel corona virus. fascinating. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7402559/ is just one example, but after a relative short period o' time, a majority o' passengers on a cruise ship tested positive for covid-19, and this were in spite o' an active effort to quarantine the sick. not resistance, but there is a whole lotta folks who is asymptomatic in spite o' their covid infection. 'course covid is actual most contagious early following infection and before one would begin displaying symptoms. got a whole lotta folks spreading covid-19 w/o any obvious signs o' being infected. have seen a whole lotta guesses 'bout relative transmissibility o' covid and just one part o' the difficulty in coming up with specific numbers is that the variants is undermining any meaningful effort to come up with meaningful results for such measures. uk variant has been estimated as being 45% more contagious than the original covid-19 strain, and 'ccording to a reuters article we saw early april 2021 (am admitting we didn't check sources) the uk variant is now the most common strain in the us. uk variant is s'posed as approximate as contagious as the spanish flu were, and a bit more contagious than seasonal flu... which is kinda meaningless as the basic reproduction number for the spanish flu and seasonal flu is ranges, and a relative considerable range at that depending on a whole host o' variables. covid-19 is highly contagious, but 'bout 80% o' people is asymptomatic. not same as resistant. not at all the same. get a vaccine which is 90% effective (the 90% numbers were generated before the uk and sa variants became widespread, so am not sure how much stock to put in such) also has added benefit as the likelihood o' needing hospitalization if one is infected also drops dramatic for those vaccinated with all o' the major vaccines. am thinking there is a whole lotta folks innocent conflating numbers. very understandable ignorance is undermining some o' the vaccination efforts. kinda a shame. that said, childhood traumas is highly resistant to numbers. we once sat on a bench w/o realizing there were a hornet's nests suspended on the underside. got stung dozens o' times including up nose and in ear and other sensitive places. nowadays, many decades removed, anytime we see a black and yellow flying insect, we wanna kill it. not any kinda exaggeration. we have a genuine urge to swat, smash, and/or crush any bee, or hornet which crosses our path. gorth aversion to medical injections is different, but we sympathize. HA! Good Fun!

perhaps the only good thing about having multiple needs is you are able to choose best player available w/o it being a bad decision. dt or safety were also options if you really didn't wanna take samuel. as we noted, joseph were in that 6.30-6.20 range which contained a large number o' players who had similar projected nfl success. so, choose the guy less likely to make headlines via his mug shot or some bat crap story which takes place at 2:00am and nowhere near a football field. HA! Good Fun!

kelvin joseph were also kicked off the lsu squad for their fiesta bowl appearance a couple years ago-- unspecified infraction o' team rules. keep in mind, two other players initial suspended for that game but allowed to play were involved in a robbery which resulted in gunshots being fired. it takes a lot to get suspended at lsu. apparently joseph were gonna have to sit additional games the following year, so he transferred to kentucky. is also worth noting joseph got benched during the florida game this last year 'cause he got torched repeatedly and kinda mental collapsed during the game, blowing coverages and acting like a whinny little... dallas just can't help themselves. kelvin has tons o' athleticism, but he relies on that athleticism to react to plays. needs to learn to study and develop anticipation. also needs to grow up and he needs do it fast. HA! Good Fun! ps am kinda taking it out on the cowboys, but we loathe all the nfl teams who talk 'bout the importance o' character while drafting guys such as parsons. is no accountability and players has learned there is no real cost for most kinds o' bad character as long as they produce. cowboys is most obvious, but we could be talking 'bout the browns who had a case o' insta amnesia and signed kareem hunt, or any o' a dozen other teams.

made sloppy joes a few days ago. served on hamburger buns. will be hamburger buns today and tomorrow and possible the next day. am suspecting if we run out o' buns we will eat sans bread or perhaps on our eggs, and am still gonna have sloppy joe leftovers. we don't use green bell pepper in our sloppy joe mix. *gasp* replace with jalapeño. we always make far too much for one or even two people. isn't too much o' a problem as we prefer sloppy joes the next day after the meat has genuine absorbed all the sloppy goodness. HA! Good Fun!

tough part is even at twelve discs, you probable still gotta go out and buy five deadly venoms. HA! Good Fun!

am agreeing the underlined portion is tough to ignore, not that he owes Gromnir some kinda explanation. am thinking he may owe @Bartimaeusand other gb fans an explanation at some point, but... HA! Good Fun!

our first thought were recalling the stolen laptop from january 6, so for us it weren't misleading, but am seeing how it could easily be read so. the judge, for anybody who bothers to read the twitter thread and ted cruz's op-ed at wsj, is a former bush appointee. @Guard Dog would, we surmise, approve o' most judge luttig opinions and positions seeing as how he is (was? now retired) arguable libertarian and his opinions were common in opposition to the so-called conservative position (pro-cop) in his defense o' 4th amendment protections. twice the judge were on the short list o' scotus candidates. so, not a lib. however, the judge is paid by coca-cola in a special advisor role, so is not as if luttig felt a need to correct cruz outta some kinda sense o' justice. nevertheless, will be intriguing to see if/how cruz responds. HA! Good Fun!

it is worth noting that so far, all the rodgers stories is based on statements made by people not named aaron rodgers. st. thomas got a bad rap in our opinion. is a weirdly dramatic story to come outta nowhere and w/o rodgers speaking, am not sure how much is true. we can wait 'til we hear something (anything?) from rodgers. undrafted after the top 10-15 remaining, there is a logjam o' many players with near identical grades. something like 44 or 45 with grades 'tween 6.30 and 6.20. converse, there were a total o' ten players grading 'tween 6.4 and 6.5. beyond midway second round this year, we are far deeper into the realm o' art than science for predicting future nfl potential. HA! Good Fun!

now that is funny. your mo. sadly, you trying to blame us for your most common problem is also not ironic. not a matter o' hunter getting away with something and what you described as the scummy behavior o' hunter weren't what giuliani got in trouble for investigating. every time a cop or law enforcement gets busted for corruption it ain't ironic, particular if the cop is known to be scummy too, but that is the only way this works for you. is no reversal o' expectations. yet another excessive horse killing. HA! Good Fun!

is a matter o' scale. rodgers being grumpy is not new. however, IF media reports is accurate, then rodgers has communicated to teammates he ain't coming back to the packers. trade or else. perhaps rodgers is never gonna get better than defcon 4 during an offseason, but he went straight to cusp o' defcon 1 this time. HA! Good Fun!

packers say they will not trade rodgers under any circumstances. Report: Aaron Rodgers has told some Packers teammates he won't return based on the packers needing make public their refusal to trade rodgers and their commitment to having him play as a packer this year, am thinking this ain't just a media invention. however, is weird. like @Bartimaeus am having difficulty squaring the kerfuffle as described with our admitted limited knowledge o' rodgers and the packers organization. rodgers, angered 'cause o' the drafting of jordan love, decides in 2021 that his relationship with the packers is irredeemable? can't help but feel like a piece is missing from the puzzle. as far as we can tell, rodgers only option is to sit until he gets a trade or perhaps until the packers trade jordan love instead. how likely is either option? HA! Good Fun!

no doubt. the notable constants in the bunker were infighting and disorganization. one reason for all the press leaks in the last guy's administration were people s'posed loyal to trump were using the media to sabotage each other. The firing of SDNY US Attorney Geoffrey Berman, explained article is from june 2020. it would turn out the main motivation for firing berman were rudy, protecting rudy. as we mentioned previous on this board, the firing o' berman were the one instance o' william barr as ag for trump engaging in patently stoopid behavior. am not even gonna try and hazard guesses as to what happened to explain the desperate defense o' rudy which occurred after the barr doj were investigating rudy surreptitiously in 2019, and we only got rudy's say-so on that point so far which is NOT a reliable source save that such a narrative runs contrary to rudy's interests and previous claims. and as for @Guard Dog, defending the hang comment as joking, such were never necessary as nobody would take that aspect literal. as such, you aren't defending your self from Gromnir criticism and you has once again confirmed you were most assured NOT joking that they are all guilty and they all deserve punishment rtegardless o' whether or not there is an actual crime to punish. exact the problem you keep making. we keep observing how politicians is people. individuals. got individual motivations and failings. nevertheless, gd has developed a general rule o' applicability which he uses regardless o' evidence and circumstances. this is the problem as 'posed to some kinda valid explanation for your lack o' impulse control. repeat the list o' possible rudy crimes: mail fraud wire fraud obstruction of justice money laundering making false statements to agents of the government conspiracy to defraud the United States serving as an agent of a foreign government without registering with the Justice Department donating funds from foreign nationals making contributions in the name of another person or allowing someone else to use one's name to make a contribution hunter's crime? couldn't even get the other guy to defend the notion hunter committed an actual crime. am knowing gd embraced some o' the counter-reasonable burisma conspiracy nonsense which makes no sense whatsoever in light o' fact biden public pushed for the removal o' a corrupt prosecutor, but am suspecting the main reason gd were willing to indulge such ridiculous conspiracy nonsense is 'cause it were a narrative which confirmed his bias. they are all corrupt. they all deserve to be punished. a conspiracy theory which depends on the assumption a politician is corrupt gets a presumption o' the legit from gd. is not the hanging as literal which we were criticizing, so your joking observation is misplaced. HA! Good Fun!

well, this is interesting, though not for reasons rudy is attempting to convince us. late 2019 would mean william barr's doj obtained a warrant to access rudy's data. the rest o' the rudy observations is deflection and distraction seeing as how a probable cause based warrant with an order the service provider maintain confidentiality is hardly shocking or unusual particular given the foreign agent aspects o' the case. nevertheless, if rudy ain't just talking out his arse, then am gonna concede we finally got a twist to events which is most assured contrary to our expectations. is not the fox spun narrative o' biden and (and even obama in some cases) directed attacks on rudy 'cause he is a trump loyalist but instead a doj under william barr investigation which eventual led to the recent search o' rudy's home. fascinating. HA! Good Fun!

*chuckle* there is no situational irony in a guy like rudy getting himself into legal trouble 'cause he were too stoopid to realize he were being used by foreign agents to expose hunter biden ... and the only thing hunter gets away with is banal and foolish partaking in the benefits o' nepotism, which is also 'bout the least ironic outcome ever. 20% o' the graduating classes at ivy league schools is "guilty" in exact same way. the reality does not defy expectations but rather meets. hunter were a fool who walks away with a pile o' money. *gasp* rudy, if he goes to prison or suffers other consequences will do so 'cause even after warnings from the fbi, he got himself involved with foreign agents for illicit purposes. predictable. meets expectations. worst part for rudy is am expecting even w/o the fbi warnings he knew what he were doing were at best pushing the limits o' legal, but as long as he were doing on behalf of trump it wouldn't matter 'cause the doj under william barr would not prosecute. is perhaps the only aspect o' the scenario which defies expectations. rudy has been behaving increasing peculiar the past couple years, but we never believed he were a genuine idiot (notable singular exceptions aside) and he had to know that as soon as barr and trump were no longer defending him, his actions would be scrutinized. what benefits would outweigh the scrutiny he were inviting? perhaps somewhere along the way, rudy bought into some kinda conspiracy theory which given joe biden's actions to get a corrupt prosecutor removed from power makes no plausible sense. again, the crimes (not legal) you pin on hunter in the previous post were public and known. were no exposing needed to uncover what you describe as hunter's malfeasance. hunter's wrong is eye-roll worthy banal 'cause is cliché for chrissakes. he took payment for a job for which he were unqualified. utter pointless o' rudy to undertake exposing what you imagine hunter "got away with." the fbi specific warned rudy o' the possible criminal liability he were courting. again, am expecting most could see this coming a mile away and nobody should be surprised... save zor it seems. is all just so... stoopid. rudy has been behaving erratic, so not unexpected, but when viewed from pov o' 1987 rudy or 2001 rudy, as a law and order guy who would so thoroughly destroy his reputation by indulging in crockpot conspiracy theories and resorting to alleged illegal means to expose the villainy o' guy guilty o' nothing save very public nepotism, then yeah, there is a bit o' the ironic. ain't the irony you describe, but there is irony. HA! Good Fun!

dallas being dallas early last year there were concerns 'bout micah parson's maturity level and how he handled himself. "high-maintenance" were the criticism. character o' parsons were a concern, but considering how talented were parsons on the field, most teams were willing to deal with a potential diva. ... micah parsons were gonna go first round, but by all accounts he were deemed undraftable by more than a couple teams. bears trading up to get fields is complete understandable, and likely dooms fields. nagy and the bears gm were unlikely to last the season unless something dramatic happened. draft an og or cb were not gonna change the bears fortunes, so am understanding why nagy and pace embraced stoopid and went all-in on a qb. unfortunate, thanks in part to injuries, the bears ol last year were terrible, and it didn't get better in the off season. won't matter who the bears put in at qb if you have one o' the league's worst run blocking squads, and a sub par pass blocking group. a bunch o' experts thought fields would go to the broncos. cris collinsworth o' nbc and bengals fame did not join the herd, but that is cause in his pre draft mock he had new england trade up to get fields at 7, and then had carolina take mac jones at 8. am thinking the broncos made a smart pick, but am s'posing if the unlikely happens and a bears drafted qb ends up being fantastic, then the broncos could look foolish, but only if surtain busts, which seems unlikely. horn, the other arguable top cb, got flagged for pi five times last year and had numerous holds as well. five times. surtain woulda' been our choice as the #1 cb available, so the broncos choosing him were a safe money bet at a position o' need. jeremiah owusu-koramoah is the 8th best player according to that nfl.com list we shared earlier. pro football focus graded jok as second best defender in slot coverage in cfb last year... as a +220 lb? didn't go in round one? can hear the sicilian say, "inconceivable!" problem for jok is his position. the hash marks are different in college... wider. jok is not a safety. not a pass rush olb. a bit light for playing in the box. eric stokes for gb is curious. 8-10th best cb on many lists projecting draft prospects. at the same time, he has elite athleticism and his production at georgia were arguable the best o' any cb available in the draft. stokes gave up a TOTAL of 145 yds for the year. we didn't see much film on stokes, so am not able to make a valid assessment, but am baffled a guy with his kinda athleticism and production didn't get more attention from draft guys. clearly the gb staff were not listening to so-called experts. good on gb from our pov. HA! Good Fun!

now that, in part, is a fair observation. sure, rudy ain't just being busted for the hunter stuff, but would indeed be ironic rudy were to be busted for trying to prove hunter's malfeasance. 'course your description o' hunter actions is, as is predictable, complete misguided and undermines the irony. is not hunter getting away with anything. whatever he done wrong, he were caught doing already *chuckle* and has been punished to the extent possible. HA! Good Fun!

gd is serious that they are all corrupt and they deserve punishment. he admits so over and over and over. but this time, when he claims hunter deserves to hang with rudy, he is joking? am not suggesting he means literal hangings. if the only "joke" is the literalness o' hanging, then is irrelevant. gd is indeed serious that they is all corrupt, and he were indeed serious that rudy and and hunter is members o' the corrupt they. edit: Bombshell Letter: Gaetz Paid for Sex With Minor, Wingman Says "Greenberg wrote in reference to the 17-year-old. “From time to time, gas money or gifts, rent or partial tuition payments were made to several of these girls, including the individual who was not yet 18. I did see the acts occur firsthand and Venmo transactions, Cash App or other payments were made to these girls on behalf of the Congressman.”" HA! Good Fun!

not this again. you not see the problem with reflexive repeating one and two in same posts? every time you is joking, but same time you are indeed serious that they all deserve to hang together. can't you feel the brain freeze sensation when you make such posts? and keep in mind is not the first time you has accused hunter and joe o' being corrupt insofar as burisma is concerned. however, this time were for funsies? for review, the current list o' crimes possible in play for rudy: mail fraud wire fraud obstruction of justice money laundering making false statements to agents of the government conspiracy to defraud the United States serving as an agent of a foreign government without registering with the Justice Department donating funds from foreign nationals making contributions in the name of another person or allowing someone else to use one's name to make a contribution converse, the only accusation level'd at hunter for which any proof has been offered is that he had the uncontested bad judgement in taking a job with burisma. wasn't anything secret 'bout the hunter situation. no conspiracy. no accusations o' agency. mere existence o' his open and notorious employment is the totality o' the misdeed, and as already noted, given the fact joe biden were vp, hunter taking the job were monumental ill-advised. tough to freaking use as leverage or a bribe when everybody is aware hunter works for burisma, eh? burisma is the folks who woulda' been the ironic offerors of bribe, yes? vp biden did the exact opposite o' that which woulda' benefited burisma by pushing to get sacked the do-nothing and corrupt prosecutor who were dragging his feet insofar as the investigation o' burisma were concerned. HA! Good Fun! ps we never got nothing worth noting from our old man save some dubious advice and our athleticism... and is not as if the athleticism cost our father anything to be passing on to us. on some level am having a hard time criticizing hunter too much for not rejecting the proverbial winning lottery ticket just 'cause it might make his dad look bad. dumbest plan ever by burisma in any event. we woulda' likely laughed our self into hysterics each time we deposited a burisma check.

you people are being... predictable. is nothing ironic 'bout rudy v. hunter 'cause a punishment in only one case is hardly ironic seeing as how the activity described regarding hunter is, y'know, not illegal. but yeah, let's hang 'em all 'cause o' the nonexistent irony? that said, doesn't take much to convince gd to hang 'em all. gonna get gd to do a little self-reflection 'fore the knee-jerk they are all corrupt responses. HA! Good Fun!

maybe red planet were more popular than anybody thought? or maybe the simpsons is to blame? HA! Good Fun!

so, the draft is not the biggest nfl news of the day? Aaron Rodgers doesn't want to return to Green Bay Packers, sources say HA! Good Fun!

opposite: may 10 and our second dose can't get here fast enough. sure, am knowing is kinda our duty to our fellow human beings to get vaccinated asap as there is current a race 'tween % vaccinated and the emergence o' new variants, one o' which may prove to be vaccine resistant. the more people who is vaccinated, the less likely is the possibility o' a variant appearing to f everything up and erase so much o' the positive gains from widespread vaccinations... which is why getting the rest o' the world vaccinated should be no less important for americans than is getting americans vaccinated. personal vaccinated hardly ends the story. that said, every time Gromnir needs spend significant time indoors with a group o' people, we get all twitchy. is no way to know how good is the ventilation in the hardware store or the dentist office waiting room. civic duty sounds like a fabulous reason to be motivated to get vaccinated, but real reason we can't hardly wait for may 10 is to give us a little peace o' mind 'cause am knowing there will be many times in the coming weeks and months am gonna find our self elbow to elbow and shoulder to shoulder with folks whom we know not at all and given our less than ideal health, such proximity is cause for concern even if the concern is not large enough to keep us in a proverbial bubble or anything remote similar. may 10 (two weeks after actual) ain't gonna be some kinda freedom from covid-19 celebration. vaccine doesn't provide perfect immunity. heck, we got the flu vaccine last year and still managed to get the flu in spite o' being ultra careful in part 'cause o' covid. that said, particular given how prevalent is the covid is a hoax narrative in our part o' california, being vaccinated will give us a reasonable response every time our bored brain pesters us with the possibilities o' aerosolized spread o' the virus in confined spaces. HA! Good Fun!

HA! Good Fun!

contrary to the impression john oliver may have left some people with recently, probable cause is not an easy hurdle to overcome. police needing resort to lies should be proof of the difficulty of achieving judicial sufficient probable cause, but somehow mr. oliver got things bass backwards on a recent show. if probable cause were so ez, why would cops resort to lies to meet their burden? nevertheless, according to multiple sources, the doj had probable cause for a search last year and bill barr blocked the warrant. if barr hadn't blocked the warrant, trump coulda'/woulda'/mighta' pardoned rudy assuming evidence was found which exposed the former nyc mayor to criminal prosecution, so barr's efforts may end up haunting rudy. also, given rudy has known this search were a possibility since barr stepped in to squash the warrant efforts last year, this is kinda an idiot test for mr. giuliani. most suspects do not get +6 months to prepare for a possible search of their home and electronic devices. if the feds find anything, and the warrant wouldn't have been served unless there were cause to believe they would find evidence, it would require rudy to be one o' the more comical willful obtuse former us attorney generals in history, although far from a uniquely comical example. HA! Good Fun!
