        @neph93 I don't think of it as a nightmare (else I'd sound like @Matt ).

        It is what it is.

        My cup is half full, so I believe I will fish with him again.  And listening to him tonight, I will do whatever I can do to get back to Andros in 2022 and fish with him again.

        He helped both @Madame Buttonfly and @Alex (and other friends catch their first Bonefish)…...

          @Giles So sorry to hear about your friend!  Sending thoughts and prayers his way and hope that he pulls through.

          Side note: My brother in law (he and his wife are both vaccinated) has decided to let his son (13) decide if he wants to get vaccinated or not.  To say I am a little pissed off would be an understatement.  😠 😠

          I feel that one of our roles as a parent is to protect our kids, and I can't see how this fits in with that.

              I’m even worse at those.  No one likes to hear “I told you so” at a funeral.

              .    Really great line. I’ve got one for you.    If you’re looking for sympathy it’s in the dictionary between Shit and Syphilis.

                I’m definitely on the side of natural selection and I love the irony of those less evolved, I just wish I didn’t have to worry about these damned kids.  Yet again, they ruin everything.  The minute they can get the shot I’m dragging their screaming little butts to the nearest vax spot and will do so with with no remorse and a smile on my face.

                  Giles, I’m so sorry to hear about your friend. I hope he recovers and I hope Alex and Kira bounce back quickly as well.

                  I live in southwest Missouri where we have a 39% vaccination rate.  And wouldn’t you know it, we’re also setting records for infections and hospitalizations. We have a huge problem with misinformation and willful ignorance.  Its a shit show here. Not ready for the meteor yet but it’s pretty damn deflating.

                      Embrace the meteor.  Its path is its will.  It’s coming to release us all from the plague of nincompoops.

                      Of course I’ve no doubt they’ll try to shoot something at it to change its course and will accidentally destroy Mars, our backup planet, instead.  Nincompoops.

                        Plague of nincompoops it is.  So true. And ridiculously funny.

                          Yeah, it’s only a matter of time before they send them all home for zoom school again.  My 7 yr old has been sent home one for a covid test because she was constipated, their bus driver has been out all week due to an exposure so the bus is 45 mins late every day and the local high school is closed altogether for to volume of cases.

                          There’s really no side effect that would be more debilitating than the foolishness that the antivaxxers are already burdened with.  At least own up to the reality that you’re just being contrarian for the sake of it and stop hiding behind lame ass conspiracy theories.  I won’t respect your decision but at least it’ll be less frustrating.

                            [mention]Matt [/mention] I think you hit the nail on the head…being a contrarian just for the sake of it.  I don’t even know if THEY know that’s all they want. A lot of toddlers throwing tantrums around here.  I’ve had a hard time coming to the realization that I can’t reason with these toddlers. I guess embracing that reality is the first step towards less frustration and stress.

                                Joking aside, I truly feel for those of you with loved ones currently struggling with this virus. I also can’t imagine what it’s like to have kids right now—my thoughts are with the parents among us as well.

                                            I agree. Six weeks after my second Pfizer-shot I got a three day -flu. Had to take the Corona-test and boom! Positive.
                                            Take your medicine. After delta comes epsilon, zeta, eta, theta etc. There is a lot of alphabets in greek language.
