December 10, 2021: Heading into the weekend less wiser but more Kaiju-wary!

Alas, no results from yesterday’s echocardiogram today, which means I get to wait until Monday.  Still, I’m not worried.  My regular diet is made up of a lot of heart-healthy dark chocolate and blood-cleansing bourbon.  I limit myself to a fried chicken sandwich and/or smash cheeseburger a week.  And most of my big meals are Japanese-inspired thanks to Akemi: fish, steamed rice, and matcha lattes.  Thus I am confident because I’ve never heard of a Japanese person dying of a heart attack.  Moreover, of their deaths can be prescribed to old age or kaiju attacks.

Join us live and/or send me some questions.

Speaking of Stargate, here are a few more goodies from the vault…

So, educate me, please  This whole omicron variant.  If its effects are as minor as they say, wouldn’t the wise thing to do be to let it run rather than lock everything down again, make it the dominant relatively mild strain and have done with the pandemic?  What am I missing?
