Errr, like this:
"One reason for hospital shortages is they throw away used gloves with each patient
Non-medical and cheapo people will wear the same pair for who knows how long"

Right.
Which pertains to people wearing gloves in casinos
Which is part of wondering when they will open.

I think that may have been me. I believe it was $20. I really like your side now.

Relatedly, one of us owes $1 to the other. I know we made a bet about something a year or so ago. But I don’t know what it was about or in what thread it was in.

LOL! Then you broke one of my rules! I always make it my opponents responsibility to remember the bet and either pay me or make me pay!
Rx pm'd me a month ago. Asked me how I wanted to collect the $50 he owed me. I still do not remember what we bet on......And I didn't ask!
I know Wiz owes me $25 on Olympics being delayed.
It seems like DRich owes me $20
I just recently made a $50 bet with AZ..... on what?
Quote: sevencard2003the last thing id want is for us to have to wait til the vaccine comes, with a microchip inserted with the number 666 on it, required by the govt. a vaccine is one thing, as long as there is NO id chip and its not forced.
It would be pointless to give everyone the same number. That would be like having one Social Security Number for everyone in the country.
Quote: sevencard2003well i mean one person would be microchipped IDed 666-393-2393-183 the next person 666-294-283-4958, the next 666-392-183-4827, and so on
As an AP I don't think a superstitious number would affect me
BTW if it was 777-xxx-xxx etc would you be more inclined to get it?
I find it hard to believe that they are going to be able to stick to “no”.....and conduct life with those who have been vaccinated. Personally, I wouldn’t want to be near a person not vaccinated.
The outcry for universal vaccination will be huge. They used to be able to sue the school systems so their children can go and not be vaccinated. I doubt that holds up anymore.
without this included alongside the vaccine. id get the vaccine, but with it included no way in hell. Bill Gates is as evil or more so, than Soros.
Quote: sevencard2003most wont be worried about the vaccine. nothing bad about a vaccine. its Bill Gates's plan to include a microchip under the skin and an ID along with the vaccine thats intrinsically evil. this is the mark of the beast talked about for the last 2000 years that permanently seperates man forever from God and seals his damnation.

At any rate, that story is more false propaganda

I read your link. And I saw Gates interviewed too. I paid as much attention to what he was saying as I just did your link. I was half asleep then, and I'm still half asleep. But Gates was saying something not far away from that. I agree with the guy who just compared him to Soros a couple posts up.
Quote: billryanDo you really need a thread to know a casino is closed, and there is no realistic date they might reopen.
Is it better to keep the thread on the first page or let it fade away?
Are you done with Indians? When do cowboys get there turn?
Quote: billryanOfficial thread update- casinos are still closed and no date is set for any to reopen.
Just before the stuff really hit the fan, I was going to take a casino run up east of Modesto to Black Oak and Chicken Ranch Casino. I've been there before, really nice area, a lot of trees, historic stuff, and two casinos. Then the bug came and I cancelled my plans. A couple days ago they were interviewing some old people from that area, which is Mariposa County, on the news. To this day, that county has ZERO cases, while all the counties around it have many cases, some deaths, especially Fresno Co., and Tulare. So the old people being interviewed were all saying, "we normally love all you visitors, but stay the heck away. Stay home, we don't want visitors right now". I don't blame them.

Most conspiracy theories mix truth with lies to convince their following.
Or sometimes tell nothing but the truth while still lying. That's particularly insidious.
Ex.
A wild tiger is roaming the streets killing people.
I assure you not to be worried, it's just a cat roaming around.
I just told you the truth. Meanwhile endangering your life by misrepresenting it

I'm already thinking about it. I have resisted flu shots 100% in the past. Never trusted them. But maybe this will be different. I guess I'll cross that bridge later. I'm just a dumb layman, but how do flu shots work when the strains mutate all the time? Fair question, I think.

S--t dude...did you have to mention "indian"?

Ok, thank you for the link. But there are vaccines, and then there are vaccines, no? I mean, I'm not dumb enough to not realize some vaccines have been miracles and wiped out what once were horrible diseases, (until foreigners hop the border and bring them back). I guess I just want to be the last guy to get one and see how everyone else reacted.

How would you keep track of who has the vaccine and who hasn't? Should we just take someones word?
Quote: billryanHow would you keep track of who has the vaccine and who hasn't? Should we just take someones word?
Before all this... my hospital required a flu vaccine for all workers in clinical areas. You needed documentation, which you would provide to HR. HR would give you a sticker to display on your ID badge. If you chose NOT to get the vaccine you had to wear a mask your entire shift. You'd see around a dozen workers throughout the hospital in masks.

If you are vaccinated against a horrible disease you should not be able to get from foreigners hopping the border with it.
That's the point of the vaccinations
The reason children need to be vaccinated against diseases is because we have NOT eradicated them. They are still here. But we aren't affected if we get the vaccinations

China is doing a smart phone app.
Once you have your test results you get the corresponding download for your designation
You need to scan this barcode for entry to restaurants etc. (Assuming you're not infected)
Also it tracks if you come into contact with someone who is infected
That's correct, it's tracking your every move
They can alert you now if you have come into contact with those infected
Let's see how many Americans are willing to let the government track their every move
Quote: darkozLet's see how many Americans are willing to let the government track their every move
If they really wanted to, the government can already track someone's every move.

I think there are some societal changes and possibly mandates coming down the road that a lot of people are going to have big problems accepting.
This pandemic is a game changer.
Quote: TigerWuIf they really wanted to, the government can already track someone's every move.
If you carry a cell phone, you are already being tracked. If you believe shutting down the locator software makes you invisible...so be it.
If you are already paranoid to begin with....you’re not going to believe Facebook when they tell you “we don’t track you if you don’t want to be tracked”.
I presume the government saying the same thing wouldn’t convince you.
Who doesn’t carry a cellphone? The same people connecting to the internet and posting messages about not wanting to be tracked? Good one.

It’s possible. What are they going to do...?? Require masks for all? Ok. Then explain to me what happens when a smoker pulls down his mask, takes a drag into his lungs and then blows it into the air?
Pfft....
I can’t imagine what restrictions will be in place once we re-open other than to say there’s going to be a LOT of displeased people whatever is mandated.

Your cell phone already does this. I saw a piece on the news where they showed a screenshot of spring breakers on a beach in Florida, and then they showed where those phones were at the moment. They were spread out mostly through out the South East, but plenty had headed north or west.

Quote: TDVegasThe questions should be asked and answered by officials. What are the parameters that you will open business? Generic answers won’t suffice. They should give some hard answers where they are comfortable opening.
The public should know and frankly officials should be transparent.
Without transparency we are all left hanging economically. That’s stress enough alone....an unknown.

If a business opens prematurely and it ends up his employees get sick, they deserve to get sued.
