Great show.  I really liked the boss, Jimmy James, played by Stephen Root.

In Madison, Wis. By now I should know better but: I get in elevator. It stops on lower floor. Man steps in, unmasked. Sign in elevator says masks required. Me, getting out: “you know, it would be really nice if you wore a mask.” Man: “I don’t care what you think.” America 2021.

Sounds like a guy for whom I would buy a beer. We need more of this in America 2021, not less.

Yes, not to mention Phil Hartman. Great cast all-around.

I had a similar event happen at BOS airport last year.  The escalator was out of service, so I had to take the elevator to go down one floor.  I wait for the elevator along with one or two other people.  When the elevator doors open, a woman pushing a luggage cart gets in and I get in behind her.  This is a pretty big elevator, almost freight size.  She wants me to get off so she can ride the elevator by herself.  I tell her no.  She cusses me out and leaves in a huff.  I get a peaceful ride to the first floor.

I know it's hard to believe, but I made a mistake regarding the price of the London Broil.  It was actually $6.99 a pound.  It was chuck roast that was $3.99/lb.  I went back to that grocery store to get some and discovered the mistake.  I ended up with a large whole eye of round at $4.99/lb instead.  Beef jerky time!
I also got about a pound of pulled pork BBQ and some grape corn and caramel corn.  Yes, grape corn.  Like caramel corn but with a grape candy coating instead.  I'd never heard of such a thing.  They had just made a fresh batch in the deli and offered me a sample.  Good stuff.

Dumbass...

Yeah, even at $6.99 a pound, it's still too damned much for London Broil.

I'd pay that for Eye Round Roast, although grudgingly, because it does so well in the crock pot.

The last couple round roasts I bought went into the crock pot with a packet of Campbell's Tavern Pot Roast sauce.

10 hours on low and... so very good.

I guarantee that within the next 24 hours, this jackass is going to once again berate us all for not wearing masks everywhere (note that his servants do here):

It's gotten to the point where's it's not that we're not suppose to notice, the curtain got pulled open on that a long time ago, but we're suppose to not say anything now.

It's called rubbing your nose in it.

Salty Cracker posted this a couple days ago.  At least it looks like many of the staff are not wearing masks.

But she has to be on TV, and hygiene is very important for her.

Another victim of C19

From CNN:

   The White House announced late Friday that it would further postpone the release of more documents related to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy, pointing to the “significant impact” of the Covid-19 pandemic.

    President Joe Biden issued a memo that said the national archivist recommended he “‘direct two public releases of the information that has ultimately ‘been determined to be appropriate for release to the public.'” The first will be an “interim release” later this year, with a second, “more comprehensive release in late 2022,” the memo said.

    The memo said that the Covid-19 pandemic has slowed down the process of reviewing whether redactions continue to meet the “statutory standard.”

Man Rams Car into Crowd Protesting Coronavirus Vaccine Mandates
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/10/25/man-rams-car-into-crowd-protesting-coronavirus-vaccine-mandates/

“A witness stated a man disagreed with the protest, entered his vehicle and intentionally drove toward the protesters,” Deputy Trina Schrader said in a statement. “The suspect then drove away westbound and out of view.”

He was arrested. 

The injured woman, who is in her 40s, was taken to a hospital because of injuries that were not life-threatening, Schrader said. Her name was not released.

Now I am curious how serious this was.  Gotta be video.

Encouraging results in using fluvoxamine in treating COVID. Fluvoxamine is an inexpensive SSRI used to treat OCD and major depression.

Treatment with fluvoxamine (100 mg twice daily for 10 days) among high-risk outpatients with early diagnosed COVID-19 reduced the need for hospitalisation defined as retention in a COVID-19 emergency setting or transfer to a tertiary hospital.
