Figures you and the cons would harp on an obvious self-evident joke and MAGA media would, as it always does, put a spotlight on it and make into something it's not. 
What you won't find in MAGA media is what will likely occur if OPEC won't play ball. That option currently under discussion is a co-ordinated release of oil from the strategic reserves of multiple industrialized countries at the same time. Led by the US, this would immediately lower the cost of oil and gas and OPEC would lose money everyday it continues. The sooner it happens, the better...

You ready to admit what I said weeks ago might have some legs about how the WEATHER was going to be driving covid numbers as winter moves in? lol

We passed the pandemic phase some months ago.....This is what the endemic phase looks like.
I'm ready to admit the weather, to a certain extent, has "a" effect but not the main or only effect. Warmer weather in Florida means more people out and about and that's a good thing when it comes to slowing the spread of covid. Colder weather elsewhere means more people clustered inside and the greater potential for spread.
When it comes to Florida reporting its number, however, the GOP machine keeps 'em down:
“What does that really mean when they say that Florida has the lowest rate in the country?” Dr. David Cutler, a family medicine physician at Providence Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, California, told Healthline."
“Because Florida only reports those positive cases among people who are full-time residents of Florida. So, if your full-time residence is in Ohio, and you have a condo in Miami Beach and you go down there and you get COVID, you’re not a case in Florida. You’re not even a case in Ohio. You’re nothing, and that’s why I don’t put a lot of impact on that Florida case rate.”

P.S.  My answer to the above would be no, however your wife seemed to be concerned, that I might pass it on to her, who might then pass it on to you.

BTW, I'd suggest from now on that you leave my sister's name out of any of our conversations.  wink

Got that Weasel?  
You're one heck of a freak show. BTW, did somebody mention your sister' name? Who brought up your sister in the first place?

He can keep his little trap shut, because I do believe it is a violation of the TOS according to him, and I guess I can act like the Village Idiot, a.k.a. Weasel of A-Mart and run to the management to get him kicked off here, but I'm not a Weasel like the Village Idiot is, and so I won't do that.

I'm just giving the weasel some helpful advice.

For awhile, Greg aptly gave him the finger, and now I understand why. 

When little boys like the Village Idiot get out of line, someone has to bitch slap them into submission.   wink

BTW, If you want to call me names like you did in your previous posting, that is fine with me.  The Village Idiot is free to call me any name he likes which he has often, but when he kept bringing up my family member, I put up with it for awhile, but then I got a bit tired of it, and so I felt I needed to give him an order to put him in his place.

I think he understands, don't you?  smile
Do you have short term memory loss? Here's what YOU have previously posted about your own family:
1. Your sister got after you to get your covid shot so you did.
2. You're worried about your sister because she's overweight and she attributes it to her glands and you don't believe it.
3. An entire thread on your brother having covid in Texas, his belief that he wasn't going to make it out of the hospital, and that he was saved by ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. You also included an image of your brother's leg rash in the same thread.
Obviously, you're the one who's posting personal information about his own family in this forum.
You do all that and now you're upset because you're asked if your sister told you to get a booster shot?!
AND, you send me threatening PMs calling me a "tough guy" and going "toe to toe" with you.
What is wrong with you?

"If I choose to talk about MY family that's MY prerogative"
"That doesn't give you any permission to even mention my family.."
If you post about them in this FORUM, it's up for reading and discussion by way of a response at the reader's option. It's axiomatic that anything you state in this forum can be read and replied to by a member of the astromart. A prime example is the thread you initiated on your own brother which drew multiple responses from members of the forum. You do don't have the option of selectively deciding who reads your posts and who chooses to reply to them like some sort of a tyrant.
