    Also a second chance to burn any Beatles records still in the garage.

    My dad told me he and his buddies once flung Elvis Presley records like frisbees off a point into the local lake when he was a kid. They're all down there for the collecting.

    Yeah, it was mask burning day here in Idaho.

    Tougher than it sounds, since a good portion of Gem Staters never owned or used one.

    That's why they moved here from California, Seattle and Portland.

    A record 2.9 million vaccinations today; 7.3 million total on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Now we are cooking with gas.

    The variants may be a “monkey wrench.”

    So that’s 20 million a week, which means 10 million a week (~3 percent of US population) in theory are getting their second doses.

    Latest figures I saw said there are 257 million adults 18 or older. If you add in 16-17 that’s probably another 9 million. So 266 million. And 80 percent of that group (212 million) get the vaccine. We’re talking everyone vaccinated by late July or early August.

    Those numbers also don’t include additional vaccine from J&J coming onto the market.

    I’m done with my subpar RickStain impersonation.

    Well, I guess it was fat fucks' fault, after all. :)

    We just had the apostrophe one place too far to the left.

    You have to factor in anti-vaxxers of every stripe. So by Memorial Day it's likely that everyone who wants a shot will have gotten one.

    Morons like this is why my county is still in the "extreme" category and on lockdown. About 75,000 county residents combine for 20 or fewer cases every two weeks, but 10k students combine for more than 150.
