Re: 7Wannabe5- Take 7- The Money Dimple
I suspect the backyard shed was a well-built playhouse for kids.

Re: COVID topic vol 2
North Dakota and South Dakota, after hitting peak infections a week before Thanksgiving, may reach herd immunity in a month or two since they have isolated populations, but the cost has been tremendous: 1-in-550 have died and 80-85% of those deaths happened since October 1. Their deaths are still b...

Re: COVID topic vol 2
I think there's reason to be optimistic about herd immunity happening this year. I'm going to suggest "doubtful". For one thing, with the official CDC death rate at 0.65% [edited for correct decimal], you can expect COVID deaths to be in the neighborhood of 1-in-155 if everyone is infecte...

USA passed 360,000 COVID-19 deaths today. That's the past decade's worth of flu death per the CDC estimates.

Re: Early Retired: The First Month
Second check arrived today, Jan 2, so the pension system is fully engaged. Which means the goal of bridging the gap between age 55 (when I left employment) and age 58 (when the pension begins) was entirely successful. And that pretty much wraps up this journal.

Re: Early Retired: The First Month
It is official. I am retired and collecting pension checks. First one unexpectedly arrived yesterday. Strange that it wasn't 92 days, so I'm delighted and thoroughly confused. I wonder if I'll get another check next week, during the regular monthly cycle of payments? It is clear that COVID-19 is go...

Re: COVID topic vol 2
Actions speak louder than words. What are they saying? Anything I speculate would be hearsay and worthless. I'd rather hear them say why. I mean, seriously, this is what is wrong with the "news networks", where commentary & opinion is treated as fact. Whatever I interpret is not fact.

60% of nursing home employees in Ohio are refusing to be vaccinated. 38% of all COVID-19 deaths are in nursing homes.

Re: COVID topic vol 2
Key words "Vital records review", not actual postive tests. Thats a great way to fudge the numbers. It even set a record "deaths" on a given day regardless of when they actually died or if it was actally covid19. Why should I believe those numbers are remotely right? Michigan = ...

Re: COVID topic vol 2
Bottom line is the cause of death in older people is often more of an educated guess rather than an obvious fact and this combined with the fact that when people/societies start to look for any one thing (especially something they perceive as dangerous) they tend to find more of it. This often does...

Re: COVID topic vol 2
USA's COVID-19 deaths after 11 months (322,000+) are the equivalent of the past 9 years of flu deaths per the CDC estimates. I'm pretty certain we will hit a decade's worth by the end of January.

Trump made it mainstream with his name-calling of any & all opponents. Really was amusing to see Lyin' Ted Cruz sucking up to Trump during this election.IlliniDave wrote: ↑Wed Dec 16, 2020 7:47 pmSad to see intimidation such a major part of the US landscape.

Re: COVID topic vol 2
This will become more common as the USA passes 1 death for every 1,000 people sometime around Christmas. At the CDC death rate of 0.65%, that means 51-52 million people will have been infected.IlliniDave wrote: ↑Wed Dec 16, 2020 6:10 pmWell, after 10 months or so, the first person I personally know succumbed to covid.
