Rock Inn - Active Outbreak

Image
Wild Rose - Active Outbreak Let's see, these businesses are part of the wonderful, fantastic "Level Up" program which allows them to behave abnormally compared to remaining businesses that don't bother filling out the one-page form.  It allows them to pack more people into their establishments than is warranted, obviously, since they have active outbreaks as currently reported on the Larimer County dashboard. Let's see how long before anyone in the town administration or the Chamber of Commerce or the businesses themselves comment on these active outbreaks among those with this "favored nation" status.  Let's see which town or VEP website is the first to warn tourists searching for a place to eat that is considered "safe" that Wild Rose and Rock Inn currently have active outbreaks. This is day #1.  The count begins.  (Note:  The count only has the ability of going up to Day 9,999 before it resets.  So the odometer may read 71, but that may

Death means never having to say you were wrong

All those deny deny deniers out there should take a look at these latest charts, in particular the deaths per million (the far right column) which, for those playing at home, is a bit like golf - Low number wins, if you want to continue as a society.  Here is the top 9, meaning the countries that are doing a fantastic job saving their population.  In those countries, they probably don't spread foolish nonsense like the vaccine causes sterility , or wear their masks below their chin.  They probably value human life, and respect other opinions that differ from their own, but don't tolerate behavior that puts others at risk. If you want to characterize the counties on this list, they are Asian or Asian Pacific or African countries, close to the original source of the outbreak.  These are countries who (without even having to look it up on Google) have a society and culture based on respect of elders, and unity of purpose. Here, on the other hand, are the real smelly pigs of the wo

UK joins the 100K club

Read this next week, when Great Britain, population 60 million, achieves a dubious milestone.  Among those countries telling the truth, four have sprinted into the lead regarding killing off their citizens.  India is no surprise, having the largest population, and Brazil also packs boatloads of forsaken, caste-ridden souls into hovels of despair.  Mexico is unfortunate, the continental equivalent of Haiti, corrupt and too close to America to escape the fumes of hegemony and our rampant drug hunger.  The UK, though, is a shock, as their health care system is unmatched, and their education system doesn’t produce near as many drooling idiots as our lack of one.  But there you have it, the two most recent self-proclaimed world powers toppled by a virus, something quite easy to defeat as it requires mostly laziness, which we seem to have mastered, both to avoid, and to quell from spreading.  All we can do is lazily avoid following basic rules of hygiene and isolation following infection.

And you want to be my latex salesman?

Hey everyone.  So your saying there is a chance?  Well, there used to be a chance, until dumbmongers like Dan Denning took the floor and said it was fine if everyone died, our economy was more important. We are done for This will shortly be over in London, because only 3000 people are currently on ventilators.  2000 or so of those folks will die, and then others will be put on ventilators to take their place.  But it is vital that Pizza Hut be open across our great land, not just for delivery, but for dine-in.  Because we as Americans have forgotten how to take care of ourselves, and only know how to bitch and complain about others, about how unfair it is when other people have something we don't.  Brazil has 200,000 deaths?  Brazil, the armpit cesspool witch doctor capital of the world?  We'll show you, Brazil.  We'll see those 200K and raise you 200K more.  Because we didn't have slaves and denigrate women and immigrants for the past four centuries just to be like eve

UK is UKky

As in icky, as in numbers and counts that spell disaster and inability to contain or confine This is getting really, really horrible, folks.  And while our local Chamber of Commerce fiddles with "Level Up, Level On, Drop Out", London burns.  1500 deaths correlates to 6500 deaths in the U.S.  Just so you know, the UK has administered more vaccines than all other European countries combined.  And it is having absolutely no impact, because people refuse to stay home.  Voluntary adherence to rules of the road is not working.  We need to put a force out on the streets meting out punishment for curfew violations and mask indifference.  Now.  Not when the Chamber has no members because every store owner is on a gurney in the urgent care gift shop or hallway of the old Convention Center.
