Title: FLXIBLE RALLY -WHO'S GOING?
Post by: pabusnut on May 24, 2020, 07:52:55 PM
I just signed up for the Flxible rally at the end of August.
It looks like it might be the only one east of the Mississippi for the rest of the year.

Just Curious who might be attending.

Dick,

My spot is #4, close to the area.  They said they didn't have any more 40' spots left in that area.

See you there!

Just got notice that the rally has been cancelled. We're going anyway to camp. Anyone want to join us for a mini rally?

We can still get together and tell lies. ;D

Although I wasn't going to go anyway, it's just so silly that there are so many fraddy cats out there that don't want to do anything because of this stupid chicom flu. But this standard, we should have all not left our houses for the last 100 years and/or all be dead from the standard flu or common cold. Just makes everything worse. SHEESH.

Lost two family members on each side of the family tree to to this and a third on the way who just signed a DNR order. So, yes it is real...

A political hot potato for sure, but head in the sand won't make it go away. Numbers are up again in KY. The new more relaxed restrictions are bringing their harvest. It is spreading faster now here than it has yet. Coming soon to a family member near you. Be careful. Wear the mask. You are not just protecting yourself.

For many older busnuts, catching the Covid will be a death sentence.

Taking precautions has nothing to do with machismo, politics, or which team one cheers for...

When, in history, have so many people who have been educated, been so foolish, to gamble with the lives of both themselves and their families?

Gamble... wanna spin?

Happy coaching!

I never said it wasn't real and I am sad to learn of your family members Freds so you are in my prayers. Jim, I never wished anyone ill as you seem to by stating coming to a family near you. Yes take proper safeguards but for crying out loud enough with these all or nothing lockdowns and ruining people's business establishments.  What good does it do to be healthy when you can't go to work? So we need a balance. If you don't want to go to an event, restaurant, store etc. then don't go. Don't blame the rest of us who want to do so with consideration and responsibility. Blame the stink'n CHICOMS and other people who have no business being here for all of this crap.

Might I suggest getting back on topic or closing this thread...this isn't going to end well on the current trajectory.

I concur with that.

Nope, just being factual. Either we starve this thing out or it'll make it's way around amongst those who can't be bothered to take precautions until it gets to every corner it can. By that time it'll be too late for many. That's just numbers. Not wishing ill on anyone, but you can either take it seriously or suffer the consequences. As will many others along the way because of those who didn't and got caught out. If each of us as an individual doesn't take responsibility who will? And even then, what can they do that we couldn't have done better? Blaming it on China doesn't help.

You can't know if you will get it. You can't know that you won't. You can't even know if your best efforts did or didn't do any good individually. But what we can and do know is that the infectious period is two weeks and that tells us that in a perfect world if everyone had obeyed strict quarantine at the same time for 14 days it would be done and gone. That still applies now. And after what we've put up with since spring 14 days to relief would be a godsend.

Unfortunately that'll never happen.

They just did two double lung transplants for the first time ever because of this Virus. This is a nasty virus and it is all over the world not just here. Unfortunately its an election year also so who knows what actually going on.

I thought we were supposed to go back to the main topic. You can PM me if you want to argue or I'm on TWITTER.

So who's all going to the mini rally? Not close enough for us this year anyway.

I would love to go to mini rally, however I am on the left coast and haven't heard of anything that is still ongoing.
