    • RE: Coronavirus - Overall

      We’re now a year and a half into Covid, with no end in sight.

      What really annoys me about gov’t, health officials and state media regularly pointing fingers at “anti-vaxxers” is they won’t extend the same shame to obese people —who are seriously affecting fatality rates and ICUs far beyond the numbers of healthy people whose natural immunity systems offer them as much (if not more) protection than the experimental vaccines. These gov’ts and their media cohort refuse to condemn high BMIs because they have to stay in their politicially-correct lanes and refrain from fat-shaming. Evidence if any was required that our leaders can stamp their feet and blow a lot of smoke, but they’re not really serious. If we really are all in this together, than the fat-bodies need to start pulling their own weight, and our leaders need to be saying as much, pushing the message every day.

      If they are vulnerable and at high-risk — and clearly they are, proven as scientific fact — they need to be getting DAILY exercise, resistance training, cardio, and dieting etc.. It’s been well over a year. There are no excuses. Covid doesn’t scare me in the slightest, but I’ve been a good citizen and vaxxed twice to protect fat-bodies and seniors. I’m still wearing a mask and nothing has changed. Fat-bodies need to protect themselves, and make necessary sacrifices for the rest of us. Put down the soda and get on a treadmill already ffs.

      /End of rant.

    • RE: Rough tips and other bets...

      I hit one of my best wagers ever a few days back at Eagle Farm, early quaddie on Bet365.

      Played a short ticket, a 20-cent quaddie selecting the logical and throwing in (as-is my habit) a darkhorse Kiwi in every leg.

      One of those logicals — a local-bred, Jumbo Goal — takes out the first leg at 5/2.

      Nothing to get too terribly excited about. But I have no idea the ride I’m about to be taken on…

      2nd leg KIANDRA GOLD (NZ) wins at 15-1. Sweet.

      3rd leg THATFRIDAYFEELING (NZ) shocks at 25-1. I’m levitating.

      4th & final leg LETHAL WARNING (NZ) knocks me delirious at 20-1.

      Total wager — $19.20
      Payout: $3,482.90

      Love. Those. Kiwi. Darkhorses!!!!

      @victor-meldrew said in Ukraine:

      I'm finding some of the pro-Ukraine stuff a bit childish, TBH. A symphony orchestra refusing to play Tchaikovsky is plain silly to me.

      It’s classic virtue-signalling. Cancelling Tchaikovsky and Dostoevsky while U.S. continues to purchase uranium from the Rooskies is just embarrassing.

      I was looking for the clip when Cherry roasted him for costing Canada a World Cup, but couldn’t find it. But I did find this! Watch the whole thing. “The Turtle” and “The Caterpillar.”

      And you have to love the comment about old-time hockey Bill Barber (Flyers) being the “best in the world” at diving, but at-least he had honour because he didn’t lay on the ice rolling around when the ref didn’t call it. Still some of the best commentary of all time!

      Wow, what do you make of that? Polly was leader gate to straight, had Zaaki pressing her the entire trip, and he pounced, looked a cinch. Polly faded on the firm course. But somewhere at the 100 Zaaki hit a wall, Huetor (14-1) came on the inside, Maximal (50-1) closed on the outside, they finished 1-2, Zaaki (1/9!!) in 3rd. This exacta is going to be a doozy ($2 exacta pays $570 — lower than I imagined, but still). I want to see the splits, I didn’t think Polly’s pace was too hot, but maybe she gassed the favourite.

      Likely to scratch as track will be far too good.

      Track is rated a Good 4, looks firm, she’s still entered and 2nd choice in the market.

      Does Waller know something we don’t??

      Any slice of this is going to be fat.

      @MN5 said in RIP 2022:

      The Yes rhythm section did some great, complicated stuff very well indeed and now they’re both gone.

      I'm happy I got to see Yes twice when they toured in the 2010s, when Chris Squire was still the band leader. In the latter concert they played all of Fragile and Close to the Edge.

      Now, they're Yes in name only with only Steve Howe left from the classic lineup.

      I saw a tour many years ago, possibly in the 90s, which seemed quite the novelty, they were almost all there. No Trevor Horn or Patrick Moraz, but they had Bruford and White, Wakeman and Kaye, Howe and Rabin. I can’t recall whether they all played together on all the songs, or whether each player contemporaneous to the song being played did it while the other sat, can’t recall, but I do remember Bruford and White playing at the same time in many songs and it was really really good.

      He wasn’t Bruford, but he played on Topographic Oceans and “Gates of Delirium,” which means he is Immortal.

      @MiketheSnow

      I loaned that documentary to several friends who believed they were watching a mockumentary like Spinal Tap, they’d never heard of them and swore they couldn’t believe they were a real band. It is one of the best rock docs out there.

    • RE: What are you listening to, right now................

      I get a lot of mileage out of the compilation cd Iron Leg, pulled together as a labour of love by DJ Shadow after he discovered them 40 years after the fact and became obsessed tracking down every song they ever recorded. There’s not a weak track on the collection. Mostly instrumental soul/r&b/funk, somewhere between James Brown’s Band and Booker T & the MGs, with occasional Hendrixian wah-wah pedal.
