My Advice When the Biden-Covid Guy Comes To Your Door

First, remember that this is probably someone with marginal intelligence and easily manipulated.  

Second, offer a simple greeting....like you would with a Jehovah's Witness, magazine sales kid, or a door-to-door Avon lady.  

Third, give them a chance to announce themselves.....but at the 20-second part....let them know in a polite way, that this was more than enough on words/chatter.

Fourth, when you give them the polite 'no thanks'....smile.

Five, if they do insist upon another word or two about Covid.....let them know that they are probably within the six foot safety level, and that you've been feeling ill the past day....listing four obvious Covid symptoms.  

Six, utter the phrase 'have a nice day', and shut the door.  

Seven, call your next-door neighbor immediately and let them know the guy is in the neighborhood. 

Eight, be aware that various fake Biden-Covid people will probably come to exist, and mostly are there to either rob you, or trying to convert you in some way. It's not Biden's fault they come to exist.  

Nine, if you did want to have some fun....you could make up a fake Covid-hand-out and pose as a Biden-guy.....visiting neighbors.  

Joe

 This week, the NY Times wrote up 5,000 word 'essay' over criticizing Joe Rogan.  

I sat and read through about half of the 'chatter', and could deem it as worthless talk....wondering why even attempt a two-star piece like this?

Is Joe Rogan a journalist?  No.  If you cornered Joe and asked him what he does....he'd probably grin and just says he asks folks questions.

The thing about Joe and his questions....he asks them from the prospective of a guy on the street....a regular guy.  He's not political....nor is he connected to any foundation.  Joe won't even hide the fact that he had a joint (or two) prior to the show starting.

Joe occasionally brings on people that give you unique details or prospectives.....that most all outlets would just skip over.  

So....why screw with Joe?  That's really the million-dollar question.

I can probably think of 15,000 other individuals.....higher-up than Joe....that deserve to be screwed with.  The commissioner of baseball....the entire Senate....most of the employees of Google....the Governor of California....President Biden...etc.

Critical Race Theory, and Reality

I tend to view things in the landscape of management. 

If I hire you....I kinda expect you to show up on time....be somewhat fit in terms of your mind and body....show some focus and determination in your work....deal with all types of people in your efforts of the day....and want to get ahead in life.  

If you show up and your general focus or aspiration is that you feel like a victim....what value are you?

This whole CRT discussion revolves around the idea that something happened over seven generations ago in your family (kinda like the Hatfields and McCoys), and you can't get over that.

I should feel that way....if some Comanche Indian killed three members of my family in the 1840s, or if Nazis killed off an entire group of the family tree in 1940, or if my family were Korean and the Japanese had killed off 90-percent of the family in 1942.  

So I see this discussion unfolding....with a fair number of folks trying to live through some past event....not even knowing the name of the relatives in the era under discussion.  Adding to this burden, in the true sense of the word....you can't reset anything or get a new prospective.   Every single day....you stay focused on being a victim of something...never able to proceed or move on.

Oddly enough, if you valued true victims....wouldn't the American Indians come out way ahead on this scale?  Shouldn't we settle differences with them?   What about these Dutch, Germans and English who were brought to the colonies....in a relative sense....aren't they victims as well?

It's an odd discussion....with no real end. 

Seven Things I Tend to Believe About Jeffrey Epstein

 1.  On the subjects of technology, investments, and innovations....I have the impression on the scale of one to ten.....that he was marginally at a 'three'.  He may have claimed some things or pretended his skill set on particular things....but there is zero evidence to some vast knowledge level.

2.  I tend to believe he had the ability to judge the weak traits of people better than anyone can imagine.  

3.  His skill as a options guy?  I think he was forever out to get advanced information, and be in the position to act before the 'lions' of Wall Street could get into the mix of things. 

4.  I think he developed insider sources both in the Justice/Department and the foreign intelligence folks....he was always the insider-to-the-insider on things going on. People were convinced that they were getting ultra-private data and they were probably among a dozen different groups finding out 'something'.

5.  The underage girl thing?  There's probably over 300 American men of 'influence' who unwittingly got into the honey-trap, and were stuck doing favors for Epstein.

6.  The suicide?  Too many people were in trouble, if his case went to court.  As for his notes and video of these individuals?  Someone out there has the content.

7.  His worth upon death?  Unknown.  It was hidden well enough....that no one will ever get a clear accounting.  

Biden Team: Door-to-Door 'Outreach' on Vaccination?

 Well....the comment was uttered by the administration, and no one is sure what this 'outreach' will mean.

Who would compose this 'outreach'?  Unknown.  

What time of the day would 'outreach' be knocking at your door?  Unknown.

Will they go into no-go neighborhoods in Memphis or Chicago?  Unknown.

I can think of forty questions, but none of them would lead to a worthwhile answer.

The odds of a outreach gal having Covid and passing it along to you at the door, on while sitting on your couch (sipping 8-hour brewed coffee and eating some of your Twinkies)?  

The odds that a fake outreach effort will occur.....with folks eyeballing your 'stuff'?

Getting paid $25 per house to achieve house visits?  It might happen.  

My humble guess is that in a few metropolitan areas (like Georgetown, or Manhattan)....some outreach will occur.  In rural regions of Alabama or Georgia?  No....I just don't see it occurring.  

Covid and the End-of-the-World Behavior

 After about 500 days of observing the Covid-19 crisis, one comes to the conclusion that we have a lot of people who now see in some strange way....Covid being the end-of-the-world type of chaos.

You could walk into an arena with 500 people now infected with Covid, and find 495 people recovered.....four folks having spent a week in a ICU situation, and one guy/gal either died or came pretty close to death (from pneumonia, not Covid).

The 495 folks will want to talk about their fever, their aching joints, or their severe cough.  

The problem is that thousands of folks from outside of the arena will want to talk about the virus from a life or death prospective....confusing themselves, and those listening to them.

Did the outsiders ever chat over flu in this way?  Well....no.

If people would take this behavior into Chicago and talk about weekend shootings in the same way.....as being a end-of-the-world situation?  Maybe they'd accomplish something (maybe).  

Going to Mandatory Covid Shots for Military?

 Oddly enough....the Pentagon said early on....they weren't going to make the Covid shots mandatory.  If you go asking how many folks have been vaccinated...the Pentagon says (around the 1st of July) that it's up near 70-percent.  

The Navy ranks near 77-percent.....the AF sits at around 60-percent.  I should note that the Marines are a good five or six points under the AF.  

Well....rumor has it that the Pentagon is discussing a August-September 'order' mandating this....no exceptions.

Counter-chatter?  Some Army folks have been direct....they won't agree to it.  Numbers?  Unknown.  

What'll happen?  I expect the order to arrive before October, and they try to quickly push out a thousand folks....to show they 'control' the problem.  Once you get to around 3,000 folks dismissed....Congress will step in and ask questions.

In the case of the Air Force?  You have a fair number of people with unique skills that you can't readily replace quickly.  My humble guess is that they will hire up contractors (with the vaccinations) at a fair sum of money, and just hand the bill back to Congress to pay.

If they dismiss more than 10,000 total....across the four services?  It'll turn into a scandal situation that can't be explained in public.  

But here's the curious thing.....these statistics I quote...are active-duty only.  No one is talking Guard or Reserve.  My humble guess is that they are closer to 40-to-50 percent, and they really won't be agreeable to a mandated shot.
