Still Super Exhausted & Still Trying to Catch Up with the Headlines About....

Covid19

May 11, 2022
 
Geez, I don't know what gives but it feels like I'm walking around in a haze, with eyes half glued shut and yawning all the time. I just can't seem to wake up. My body doesn't feel tired or worn out it's just my eyes don't want to stay open, very long. I keep fighting it, but I never seem to be winning the battle. It's a constant one, going on all day long from the moment I get up until I go to bed again. Naw and I don't want to hear "it's because of Covid", because it's not. I think it's probably more to do with the heat and the sun, neither of which I can take for every long before it wears me out or gives me a migraine.
 
I spent plenty of time in both today, cleaning up after the smoked meat sandwich party last night. Cleaning the smoker and it's racks and water pan and drip trays were hard and dirty work in the heat and sun. That's one thing with the charcoal smoker, it wasn't nearly as hard to clean as the electric one  is. I think for cleaning purposes it's really badly designed. First of all the drip pan in the bottom is below the water pan. The water pan is just below the racks where the meat goes, so the water pan gets full of the drippings and the drip pan on the bottom has a hole to drain out into an exterior drip pan, but that didn't work. The exterior drip pan was clean, but the water pan and the interior drip pan were both full of grease and drippings which overflowed onto the floor of the smoker itself.  So it was a colossal mess to clean up. I got most of it off the water and drip pans and then put them in the dishwasher, with one of the racks that I couldn't clean by hand. But it was a chore and a half. It took almost as long to clean the smoker as it did to smoke the meat. Might as well have just used the charcoal smoker, would've come out the same time investment wise, but it would've been less strenuous and much easier over all.

Tomorrow, all I plan on doing is sit back and relax, after I get out of my shower. Maybe if it's not too stifling hot, go relax a bit outside as my husband got the patio furniture out for me, so if I want to go sit in the back in the rocker or in the front with the breezes off the water at the table doing something I can. So that's what I'll probably do, as I need to get a handle on all this tiredness and get it over with one way or another. Or spend the summer sleeping.

Anyhow, I'm going to be posting more of the backlogged headlines again tonight. Not sure how far I'll get again. I guess you'll know when you get to the end of them, which is probably where I left off because my head was hitting the keyboard.


To pee or not to pee: Lack of public washrooms in Charlottetown more apparent during COVID-19 Around here it wasn't due to a lack of public washrooms, as there were still plenty around, it was the managers/owners not wanting people to use them because of covid19.
 
 
 

Toronto Public Health dismisses all students from high school in Etobicoke hit with COVID-19 outbreak

LILLEY: Trudeau government warns against travelling ... seriously 

Sask. restricts family visitations at ICUs

More vaccinated people are getting hospitalized with COVID-19. But unvaccinated still make up the majority 

Health-care staff shortages could be on the way as COVID-19 vaccine mandates loom Which the  gov'ts all chickened out from implementing at the last minute, because they were afraid they'd be left with  hospitals full of patients and no one to look after them if they went through with the mandates.

Most Canadians support health-care workers refusing treatment to threatening, disrespectful unvaccinated patients: Nanos survey  That was a load of BS if I ever saw it. I don't know of anyone who thought that. They all realized that everyone pays for medicare and some make bad choices but still get treated anyhow, as in the case of skiers who break their necks flying down skihills, or motorcyclists who wind up half mangled due to riding a motorcycle or being a risky rider, drinkers who wind up in mangled wrecks due to their overindulgences and driving afterward, and smokers who just can't seem to quit until they need oxygen tanks strapped to wheelchairs or double lung transplants. Or those who love food a little too much or not nearly as much as they should. Or kids who cut themselves etc... Nearly everyone at some time in their lives has done something, risky, stupid, or adopted habits that were bad for their health. So while I heard a couple of callous beitches on the radio talk shows suggest that they shouldn't be treated in hospitals if they refused the vaccine, for the most part I don't know anyone in person and even the talk show host on the radio was aghast at the callousness of that idea. Asking the beitch that suggested that if that were even legal since everyone pays for medicare and could they just refuse it to someone like that because they didn't agree with the choices that person made. I believe medical care under the medicare act and the constitution is actually a constitutional right to all citizens of Canada so for beitches to suggest such a thing, I suggest for those particular beitches that when it comes time to treat them for their cancer (as I'm sure someone like that WILL develop cancer and since she's a beitch it's likely to be breast, ovarian or cervical cancer) that we should find an excuse to not treat her - as in she put out too many times for too many people or animals (whatever turned her crank) or she was such a dried up prune she never put out or had kids and as a result didn't contribute anyone else to the human race, so she wasn't needed and so we don't need to treat her cancers. Or if she ever smoked (cigarettes, cigars, tea leaves, cannabis, seaweed, weeds - the good old garden variety - no matter what), drank, worked in places where any of those things were consumed and used - as in liquor stores, pubs, bars, restaurants, tobacco stores etc, then all cancer related medical services were denied to such beitches. I would. That would be on all the questionnaires I handed out to cancer victims along with what did they think of those who didn't get vaccinations against covid (multiple choice answers there too) and depending on how that form was answered would depend on the type of treatment the person got. It just blows my mind to see such a bunch of sanctimonious assholes out there. Who would deny people the right (even after they pay for the right through their taxes) to medical services, because the gov't has scared those moronic assholes silly and brainwashed everyone into believing that the vaccines protect everyone. Yet it's the assholes who've had their vaccinations that are super paranoid of the non-vaccinated. It's the NON-VACCINATED THAT SHOULD BE THE ONES THAT ARE PARANOID OF CATCHING IT ******** NOT THE VACCINATED ******* because if the vaccines actually worked as they're supposed to the vaccinated would be immune to it. But again we're talking about Canadian sheeple which for the most part have been scared silly by the wanna-be dictators in power. So since they've been scared silly that's what they are now, SILLY. Too stupid to think for themselves. But again we're also talking about snake oil elixirs that aren't really vaccines and only placebos at best.

Resistance against vaccines rising among U.S. first responders You have to wonder why, if the vaccines are so great and work so well, so many medical personnel from nurses and doctors to 1st responders are refusing them. You'd think being medical personnel, that they would KNOW without a doubt how good or bad those vaccines are and how reliable they are at protecting people from the illnesss. With so many of the medical personnel refusing the vaccines, it only leads one to believe that those vaccines aren't all they're cracked up to be and probably should be avoided altogether if medical personnel who are in daily contact with covid patients are refusing the vaccines. You'd think if they were constantly in contact with covid victims they'd want to protect themselves from catching the disease by getting the vaccine, but yet they're refusing them. So obviously those vaccines probably aren't as great as the authorities would have you believe if medical personnel are risking their jobs by refusing to get jabbed.

Hospital Patient In Denver Shares Story Of 20-Hour-Long Wait For Room OMG that's a short time compared to the 36 hours my husband spent lying on a stretcher in a hallway in our local hospital in 2014 - so no covid to blame that on then. Then it was just standard operating procedures at most QC hospitals - plagued with shortages of staff, beds, and rooms etc... Thanks in large  part to Peg Legged Lucien Bouchard, that decided to close a large number of hospitals in the province while he was premier. I don't know what the moron was thinking when he did that considering he knew the population was getting older and there were more people in the province who would eventually need medical care. Ironically the moron himself needed dire medical care shortly after he did that, as he had flesh eating disease and one of his legs had to be amputated. At the time I was so angry at him having closed most of the hospitals that I wished it was his head that needed amputating instead of one of his legs. But you can see over the years (when you live long enough and can see in hindsight what each action does) how you wind up with 36 hour hallway gurney waits for rooms in hospitals and that's before any plandemics came along. Now, it's probably more like a few weeks or your entire hospital stay (unless you have covid - then they find you a room pronto but otherwise....) before you get a room with a door and a connecting bathroom.

Cabinet Minister Refuses To Apologise After Damning Covid Report Gawd those clowns in the UK have a nerve and a half, asking HIM to apologize. What the F for? For telling the truth? If anyone should apologize it should be the assholes to made those "errors" - that is a polite way of putting it I think. I think they should more aptly be called criminal negligence rather than errors. 

COVID-19 pandemic not in 'rear view mirror' for hospitality sector, pubs boss warns PM

Report concludes UK waited too long for virus lockdown Waited too long for a LOCKDOWN???? What about having waited too long to CLOSE THE BORDERS TO PEOPLE TRYING TO ENTER THE UK FROM ELSEWHERE????? THAT would've done more to protect the population than lockdowns did - especially since those were proven to be useless for disease spread and harmful to the economy and education.

Ex-police will enforce COVID-19 rules, 'secure isolation site' to relaunch, Sask. doctors told in other words more Canadian gestapo tactics being used here.

Shuffling health-care workers around won't solve COVID crisis: Sask. nurses' union president  Of course not. They proved here in QC that shuffling health care workers around amongst the CHLDs  (long term care homes) is what helped spread covid from one facility to another. It's just a way to keep the disease going - being transmitted from one institution to another.

COVID-19 deaths are surging in Russia, but vaccination lags

That's it for now.... Hopefully, I'll get to more of the backlogged headlines soon. In the meantime take care and stay well and remember....

In the meantime remember BOYCOTT Metro, Metro Plus and Metro Richelieu stores. If you have a claim that you wish to make against them for injury or loss sustained because of their negligence you're more than welcome to join the class action lawsuit I wish to launch against them.

Vicarious Tropical Vacations, Pizza Party & Blogging About...

 Covid19

Sept 26, 2020

Since I last left things in here, I've been busy catching up on some zzzzzzzzzzzzs. I don't know what it is but it seems that at least once a week now I need a day to just sleep. So that's pretty much what I did yesterday and eating some KFC.

Today I had a blast making a couple of pizzas to take to our neighbour's for what was supposed to be a backyard pizza party until the mosquitoes drove us indoors, so it became an indoor pizza party, after which we were shown several pictures and videos of their latest tropical vacations to Cuba, Panama and Mexico. I don't know but I thought the Panama vacation was probably the most fun as they went on several tours - through the jungle, through old and new Panama and to see the Panama Canal. Which reminds me of a canal near here only the Panama is much larger for much larger boats. The prettiest beaches though were in Cuba. Just beautiful. That's where they were when COVID19 lockdowns were declared. They got out on the last flight out from Cuba before they stopped allowing planes to fly from there. When they got home they had to quarantine for 14 days, so even though we looked after their dogs while they were gone and had their key and a few other things they left us in case we'd need them, we couldn't give them back to them until 14 days after they'd been back. By then everyone was in lockdown including us. 
 
Due to the lockdowns and the rules surrounding socializing being so damned strict up until lately we hadn't had a chance to have our backyard pizza party before now and see those pics and videos. We planned this last week before Dube, Legault & company decided that we shouldn't socialize anymore for at least a month. Since it was something we normally do at least once a summer but couldn't because of the stupid rules surrounding this plandemic we didn't do until now - because rules were loosening a bit more, until suddenly whoops it's back to tighter than a drum without being a literal lockdown.  It still is technically except that people are allowed out to work and school. Basically this is more akin to the government grounding all of us delinquent teenagers, because we insisted on having a little fun, and being grounded, instead of being treated like flat out criminals and put under house arrest.
 
Now if I don't fall asleep again while doing this, I'll post whatever headlines I can for now...
 
A supercomputer found a promising theory about why COVID-19 cases go downhill fast. It even explains the bizarre range of symptoms. I actually found this one to have some credibility and if that's the case, doctors may be able to treat severe covid19 cases differently than just shoving ventilator tubing down their throats hoping for them to survive the ordeal. At least it provides an idea of what might be happening and why and maybe as a result a better way of treating it.

 
 
 
 
Anti-mask protest in Montreal draws large crowd, propelled by U.S. conspiracy theories You know based on the news stories from mainstream media that I've posted in this blog (which is mostly comprised of such stories), I can't help but agree with many of those theories, because the stories I've seen tend to support them. Those are the mainstream media stories too. Just read back in the blog anywhere and you'll see tons of stories lending credence to and  supporting those "conspiracy theories".  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Immigrants say their lives are in limbo as pandemic blocks their path to citizenship News flash for all you special people aka "immigrants"..... I, nor my husband, nor son, nor daughter-in-law, nor friends, nor any of our neighbours are immigrants but all of our lives are in limbo because of the pandemic! We haven't been allowed to live one normal day since this started. Everyday there are things we would like to do, but can't or are forced to do but don't want to (like stay home, and wear masks). So what makes you so special that your lives shouldn't be in limbo because of it anyhow?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Harshmallow: Virus prompts pause for Peeps holiday treats Deciding that already? Geez theres a few more candy coated holidays before Easter to come and get through, like Halloween, Christmas, and Valentines to be specific and we haven't gotten to or through those yet, so how do you know what Easter will bring? Besides disappointment according to this story....

 
Mason jars, lids hard to find during pickling season I think I posted stories about this before, but the case is still the same, at least around here it is. That's why I still can't make my rhubarb jam, that I so want to make and had to freeze the rhubarb in hopes that someday soon I'll have the jars required.

They did that a couple of weeks ago, but honestly I don't think that'll be enough and I find that it came really really late in the need, because after all it's 6 months since a lot of people have lost their jobs and thus incomes. So there should've been a food drive like this long before now, and there should be more between now & Christmas as well and not just to collect for Christmas, but for October & November as well.
 
Will the COVID-19 pandemic permanently change the way we work? I wish the media would stop doing stupid stories like this, because unless the person they're talking to is a time traveller that came back in time to talk to them or has a crystal ball, it's all just speculation as no one knows for sure. But knowing human nature and how gregarious we are as  group, I doubt it. People are going to want to get back to work with others even if it means fighting traffic jams in order to do so. 

 
Bye, bye, browsing: High-touch Edmonton stores rethink retail strategies during pandemic This is just pure unadulterated paranoia and nonsense. If they're going to use "high touch" browsing as an excuse to close stores then they'd better start closing all grocery & convenience stores too. Have you seen the amount of people that pick items up off the shelf to inspect them (like BB dates, and ingredients, and prices if hidden on the bottom)? Because I have. Now they've even added a new reason to pick them up off the shelves and put them back,  - in order to show them to the person they're talking to on the phone. Just saying that it's a jar of whatever and the ingredients are such isn't enough, now they have take a pic and send that to whoever they're talking to, so they can see and read it as well. And of course they never like whatever it is they're seeing on the product and so put it back. Or have you seen how many people paw the fresh veggies and fruits over trying to find the best one/s of the bunch? I kid you not, I stood and watched a woman one day at Super C pick up and inspect every bunch of bananas that was in the banana case. I wanted to buy bananas too, but after watching that, I decided against it. But I'm sure she's not the only one that pawed them over before I got there. And we eat this stuff. I mean we put this stuff in our mouths, unlike books & records. Unless you're a really strange person with a really strange paper & vinyl diet.

 
 
ECB's Lagarde shifts burden to governments to aid recovery Sounds like she's still working for the IMF and not the ECB, considering the IMF loved indebted countries, that way they could offer financial assistance in exchange for whatever resources they could pilfer from the country - sounds like she's trying to get the  European countries so far into debt they'll have to go begging the IMF hat in hand to get bailed out whereby they'll demand whatever resources they have in exchange for their help. 

 

 

 

I hope they stay locked down forever! 

 
Coronavirus: Bamboo shortage forces Canadian zoo to return pandas to China Too bad, because so far as I'm concerned they were the only good things to come out of China in recent history.

 
Coronavirus: How will the world vaccinate seven billion?   That's what I've been wondering but I'm sure Bill Gates has been salivatating over this for a long time and so has it all already figured out how he's going to corral 7 billion captives and inoculate them forcibly 1 by 1 so he can charge x amount per dose and turn into a googleaire overnight.  Or him and his cohorts - maybe they're dividing the populations up between them, so they all have a equal share and thus make equal amounts of money. That would be my guess.

In case you missed the previous articles posted about this in prior posts here's another one.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Face masks could be giving people Covid-19 immunity, researchers suggest The way I see people even health authorities like Dube here in QC, & Arruda, along with Fauci in the US and others treat their masks when they take them off to speak, they don't follow their own advice they give. Their hands are all over the outside of the masks. Some of them including bozo brains  Trudeau, shoves them into their jacket pockets while talking and then takes them out again to put on, with the outside of the mask as the part that's handled with their barehands and touching the insides of their pockets. So when I see stuff like that I take the masks BS about as seriously as I take the tooth fairy and santa clause. 

 

Anyhow, that's about it for now as it's getting pretty hard for me to see anything and I'll soon be waking up with keyboard imprints on my face, if I don't go hit the sack now. So take care and stay well until next time.

Lazy Day Just Reading & Now Blogging About....

Covid19

Courtesy Pixabay.com
September 15, 2020

It was one of those blah days, where it was grey and cold and miserable outside and I just didn't feel like doing too much of anything at all, though I did make supper - a stew in the instant pot. Other than that just looked at things on the net by myself and with my dachshund (who is currently sitting on my lap, hampering the use of my left hand while I type by resting her head on my lower arm -  I touch type). So there might be a tad more than usual spelling mistakes or typos in this post on account of that.

I did search out and read some more COVID related headlines and as a result have a never ending supply of them - or it seems that way anyhow. So should start to post some of them, I know I won't get through anywhere near even half of them tonight, but I'll post what I can.



Canada’s Hot Housing Market to Face a Cold Hard Truth: CMHC  Yup I knew if there was good news somewhere there'd have to be some bad around too, in order to temper it. After all we don't want our spirits getting lifted too high. That might provide a few moments of happiness if that occurred and we can't have any of that now. Happiness is forbidden during this plandemic of ours.

Do we need a 14-day quarantine for the novel coronavirus? New study at Pearson Airport aims to find out  According to the CDC we only really need a 10 day quarantine now.




'I don't have a safety net': Unemployed Americans say they're stuck after finding out they don't qualify for the $300 jobless benefit expansion  I really feel sorry for those people. It's just not right that the richest country in the world lets their own citizens suffer like that.

Jim Carrey Slams Trump’s Coronavirus Response: ‘Plagues Don’t Care About Reelection Campaigns’  I'm not quibbling with what he's saying, I'm quibbling with the fact that he's saying it period. Because unless he's an American citizen he really has no business meddling in their political affairs at all. 

Alyssa Milano says she has 'heart palpitations' among lingering COVID-19 symptoms  They do say that that's one of the symptoms that may stick around after recovery. Other people suffer other things and some suffer multiple things after they've recovered. 




Minivans at the Food Pantry: Meet America's New Needy   This is just very sad, for such a rich nation as the US.



Kids Play on Scooters as Father Questioned by Police in Melbourne Over Lockdown Restrictions  It seems like the governments world wide have taken advantage of this plandemic of theirs to try to create a police state where overbearing jurisdictions use ticket happy cops and probably ticket quotas as well, to intimidate even the most innocent of citizens who aren't breaking any laws and just want their kids to get some exercise and have a little bit of fun once in awhile. 







Woman has surprise baby after thinking weight gain during lockdown was due to snacking Wow... I don't know I just find that one hard to believe having had kids myself. Didn't she feel them kick or move in her womb while she was pregnant? I mean my son kicked like as if he was  trying out for a football team or something - it was unmistakable. I wasn't going to be mistaking those feelings as being the results of snacking too much.  Sometimes even the movements going on inside me were visible to others on the outside, who were looking at me at the time and they'd notice the movements and want to touch my baby bump. 

Photos from 10 countries around the world show why most Americans say they are 'embarrassed' by the US coronavirus response  I don't know why they're embarrassed because most other western countries responded the same way as in clueless wonders who all basically said "wha? huh?, who?, when?, wha was at? whacha talkin 'bout hmmm?, oh that, don't worry you'll be fine, just wash your hands."  It's not just him who responded like that, the bozo brains in Ottawa did, Johnson did, Merkel and Macron did and so did the rest of Europe. That is why we're all in the same boat together! It was a planned and orchestrated effort by the WHO and the powers that be in this world to rid the world of excess population, and to crash economies while they were at it. Not to mention siphon off a lot of wealth from the middle class by forcing them into bankruptcy and foreclosure.

She lost her father to COVID-19: 'Awful' Facebook users are telling her to 'suck it up' Even if someone doesn't believe COVID19 is real, that doesn't give them the right to be rude and downright mean to her because her father died, no matter the cause. The cause of death shouldn't have any bearing on how we treat the bereaved. It's enough that a loved one died, nevermind the cause. Just the fact that he died, should be reason enough for people to be compassionate with her if not then at least non chalent, there's no need for them to be nasty or rude with her just because they can't believe that COVID19 is real or not.  I don't know of anyone who died from it either or anyone who even had it for sure (yeah I think I and my family and our neighbours had it already back in early January but we have no way of knowing for sure as no one will test us to find out). But even though I don't know of anyone who's been verified to have had it, doesn't mean I don't believe this pandemic and virus exists. Of course it does and it's being used as a convenient excuse by governments to impose all kinds of measures on us and implode our economies as well. I'm just saying based on facts and figures that I've seen and read and experienced (because even just bad flus, we'd have all known someone or other who's had it this far into it, as we are now with this coronavirus - the fact that I don't know of anyone who's had it, and no one else I know does either, means it's not all as bad as they're making it out to be - even the daily numbers from the WHO indicates that much). So yeah it exists and it's possible a person here and there gets it and even dies from it, but it's still nowhere near as bad as a bad flu season let alone the Spanish flu like they keep trying to compare it to.

Trooper arrested after video shows him ripping off protester’s mask in Tennessee Wow! There they have state troopers ripping people's masks off while we have cops giving out several hundred to several thousand dollar tickets for not wearing a mask!!!!!

Queen Elizabeth Is Turning Her Country Home Into a Drive-In Movie Theater — See What's Playing!  Yup another way for her to make money off the taxpayers in the UK.... 

Smoking tied to COVID-19 risk; oxygen meter may help home patients  And here they said before that if you smoked you were less likely to get COVID19. I wish they'd make up their minds. That's the trouble with this disease, no one knows what they're talking about. They'll say something one minute and then the next it's the complete opposite.

11 freshmen at Northeastern were dismissed for violating COVID-19 rules. Their $35,000 tuition won't be reimbursed.   That seems a little excessive to me. It seems to me that big companies and institutions like this seems to think that this pandemic is giving them license to steal from their clients who didn't get the services they paid for, like airline companies and now this university. In the case of the airlines that's called consumer fraud (as in they're ripping the consumers off), and in the case of the university it's called excessive penalizations. They could've kicked them out and given them a stiff fine to pay (say $5,000 or so) but reimbursed them their tuition fees. Anyhow I'm sure the mommies and daddies of those students will be hiring good lawyers who'll demand the money back or else.  But it's good this university was named and shamed. That way others who don't want to be ripped off for any arbitrary reason will know not to send their kids to that school. 

Situation of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in Québec  This is the new English QC government page on COVID19.   The French Page is here: Situation du coronavirus (COVID-19) au Québec






International traveller identified as latest COVID-19 case on Prince Edward Island Well well well the hypocrites got caught with their pants down eh? Can't let fellow Canadians into your precious province because we're all germ carriers, but you have no problems letting international travellers into the precious place. Good, I'm glad they brought the virus in and I hope they spread it near and far on their way in and to your hospitals! It'll teach you high and mighty sanctimonious potato heads a lesson or  two I  hope!


Regina elementary students say first week back was fun, confusing, crazy  Now hearing from the other side of the coin.

KitchenFest kicks off in Cape Breton after COVID-19 delayed its start date They're lucky it was only delayed and not cancelled altogether like all the other fun events have been so far this year. I hope who ever took part either as participants or as audience members enjoyed it. Fun, and enjoyment is something that's been totally sucked out of this year altogether, so whatever bit of fun and enjoyment there is out there, I hope whoever gets to indulge in it, appreciates it a lot. 


'Like sardines in there': Halifax school bus driver says more COVID-19 precautions needed Another angle on the back to school experience this past week. 




How to interpret Rt, a number to measure the pandemic in Quebec  Just another way to boggle the brain with BS, I think. The math is easy enough, I just don't know if it's credible, that's the problem here.

Increase in boaters during pandemic could be cause of increased dangerous water activity: Toronto Police  Geez those guys are geniuses. Of course if there's more boats there's more chance for boating accidents, just like if there's more cars on the road there's more chance for car accidents too. 



No charges, no fines after Quebec City karaoke night led to nearly 60 cases of COVID-19 If there were laws already in place allowing for fines and charges, there'd have been some. Trust me. QC cops don't let anyone off with anything, unless they're being bribed to look the other way.


'Cautious but reasonable optimism' over Berlusconi's health, doctor says I didn't even know he was still alive so when I came across this headlines, I was more than a little surprised.

Mushers question future of Yukon Quest after this winter's race cancelled  Geez even arctic dog sledding is being affected by this stupid plandemic. Seems like everything except that KitchenFest was cancelled this year. 



All treats, no tricks: Mulling a pandemic Halloween that is scary for the right reasons  Oh don't worry as we get closer and closer to the date, there'll be more and more paranoid parents and government officials so it'll be cancelled too. After-all, it's fun. So it's got to be cancelled.



FBI raids nursing home where 82 residents died of COVID-19 in Pennsylvania  OMG! That's horrible! My question is why did the FBI wait for 82 to die before going in to raid the place? They should've gone in long long long before that, if you ask me!









Play it safe: What to expect if your kids play youth sports during the COVID-19 pandemic  In the US anyhow. It's doubtful any Cdn kids will be allowed to play any team sports during the plandemic.

T-Mobile plans to give free internet to 10 million students for remote learning, homework  Again this is only in the US. I don't even know if that company exists in Canada. Just informing you in case you're Canadian and figure you can avail yourself of the same deal here.

Amid coronavirus pandemic, more people need government food assistance. How's your state doing?  I'm sure plenty of Canadians need food assistance too. I'm just not too sure there's any actual programs out there for that purpose by any level of government. I know there's a few volunteer food banks around here and there and some are hanging in there and being able to help those they normally serve, while other food banks are running low on food to hand out even to those they normally serve. But I don't know if any of them are equipped and stocked enough to help additional people, over and above their normal numbers that they generally serve. So maybe we can find a local food bank and drop some things off there whenever we get groceries, just to help out in these trying times. I know Montreal had a food bank drive on Sunday in the pouring rain, where Montrealers could leave food on their front steps for volunteers to pick up to take to the food banks. But other than relying on volunteers and charity here in Canada there is no food assistance from the government, so I'd say we're doing quite bad in that department.

5 reasons COVID-19 pandemic gives the edge to cars, SUVs, pickups   COVID19 had to affect car type purchases too, of course, like it affects everything else in life.


An out-of-work chef has turned his garage into a food pantry that defies convention  This is what I'm talking about - it's these types of outfits that are feeding hungry Canadians and not any government food assistance programs.


Sweden now has one of Europe's lowest Covid-19 death rates  And the health minister there was going for herd immunity in the population that's why he didn't close anything down etc... He wanted as many people as possible to acquire it and thus become immune to it.  And it looks like it probably worked. At least better than the way the rest of the countries are operating anyhow.


Remote learning is spectacularly remote when you're superrich  Wouldn't they just bring their nanny and private tutor along with them?

Anyhow that's all for this time. Take care and stay well until next time.
