Absolutely useless facts about you nobody cares about

The part of the forum where the silliest things happen. Conversations that sound like they belong here, will be moved here. Maybe.

Just got back from a checkup with my doctor. He was going off on how stupid it is to test asymptomatic people.
I am not as cool as JimVH. Nor or you. Well, unless you ARE JimVH.

They won't let unboosted/unvaxed back in the building until 5 days later with a negative test. Boosted are allowed back in even though they can carry the virus just like an unboosted/unvaxed person.

All of Japan has a mask mandate. One wears a mask at all times in public and dines behind shields. Interesting.

Nothing has made sense from the beginning of this. Why start implementing sensible policies now?

I retired in December. Volunteered to leave during a restructure. They gave me a year's pay for severance. Went to work for our largest competitor doing the same job in January. I still don't really know how to do either job :D

sweetandsour wrote: 15 Jun 2022, 05:00 I played in a golf tournament yesterday, and came in 2nd. My winnings were $72.50, and a pack of Srixon golf balls. I picked up the lunch tab afterward for a couple friends that I was riding with, which then left me with a $3 deficit, and the golf balls. It was a very nice lunch. I was in bed by 8:30 last night, and out like a light, to the amusement of my wife.
Congratulations on becoming a paid professional golfer!

I giggled when I did that. Sign of progress, but I'll admit it was a poignant moment. All is passing illusion in this world.
