    Twostix, I think you should follow your logic through.

    If the Boomers( i.e. your parents generation) are to blame for all of your ills then ask why?

    Clearly they weren’t brought up right so it must be their parent’s fault.

    And if it was their parent’s fault then whose caused those parents to be so bad at bringing up kids? It must have been their parents.

    Follow this through and , depending upon your beliefs you end up blaming-

    Adam and Eve and consequently God who created them.

    Or

    Some single celled organism that arose out of the primeval soup 4 billion years ago.

    Good luck in getting either God or a 4 billion year old microbe to listen to you.

    My impression is that it was likely meant as a weapon but was released by accident – before it was ready.

    While the Chinese government would, I believe, think little of letting their people suffer, the outbreak in Wuhan would not give as good information as a more rigorously set up, and precisely calibrated for specific classifications, test. Which they would do on prisoners and others whose only worth was as a scientific resource.

    I don’t know about 2021. Does it even exist?’

    and

    ‘My washing machine only accepts pajamas these days. I put in a pair of jeans and a message popped up: “Stay Home” ‘

    and this final one which is a bit close to the bone:

    “Lockdown seems like a Netflix series: just when you think it is over, they release another season”.

    I’m moving out of here next Friday (my birthday, and Friday 13th!) and will be telling the packers and removalists that they do not need to wear masks. They can if they want to, but nothing to do with me.

    Went to the bank yesterday to move $$ from one account to another, and to withdraw a grand to pay the removalists, who became very accommodating when I mentioned cash. Now, there’s a surprise. 🙂

    Anyway, the teller, name tag Mohammed, simply could not understand what I was asking for. His English was fine, but his IQ must be about 75. I want to move $ from this account to that account.

    Oh, so you want to move $ from that account to this account.

    “In Alberta, Canada, Patrick King represented himself in court after being fined $1200 dollars for protesting against the Covid restrictions. He issued a subpoena to the Provincial Health Minister for proof that the Covid-19 Virus exists. The government was UNABLE to provide that proof and were therefore forced to admit that they had no such evidence. Since the virus has never been isolated, without proof that there is a virus the government had no legal grounds to impose any such restrictions.

    Alberta has subsequently rescinded all Covid-Restrictions and now officially treats Covid-19 as nothing more than the mild flu. Alberta’s Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Deena Hinshaw announced the changes on July 28 as part of the province’s move to treat the virus as part of life in Alberta and treat it in the same way Albertans treat other respiratory viruses.”

    I find the manner in which the ABC news at 7pm airily dismissed today’s reported death of the young woman from blood clots caused by AZ totally offensive.

    The essential issue is that woman is dead because she was persuaded to have an experimental vaccine that promised reduced risk from COVID 19.

    The question remains…….would she ever have contracted Covid? And if she did, would she have died, given that the majority of people survive the infection?

    The media never trouble themselves with this conundrum.
