Died of a heart attack after a jog, at 56, in the same year as this film.

Didn't Ric Mayall tell everyone to seriously, throw out their TV's just before he died ? I've looked every for this clip.

Watching a rerun of 'The Fugitive' on CBS Drama right now. The episode is called 'Rat in a corner'. Chris Whitty-esque or what.

The big question is: What's going to happen when they run out of Greek alphabet letters?

They said something about using the names of star constellations a few months ago.

 

When they name one the 'Andromeda Strain' we'll know they're taking the piss

FFS ! PMSL!!!

To be fair this isn't a new theory, the astronomers Fred Hoyle and Chandra Wickramasinghe proposed viruses come from space as a theory years ago. It's interesting, as is it's off-shoot Cosmic Ancestry which is a competing theory to the current neo-Darwinian evolutionary hypothesis.

 

Basically it proposes lateral gene transfer via 'viruses' is a driving force of evolution. I reserve judgement but I find aspects of it thought provoking.

Problem is (from what I've read on a footy forum) most of the population have been begging for the reinstatement of masks for months now, berating doris for not keeping them mandatory after 'freedom day' in July. The covid thread is clogged up with posts complaining at the lack of mask usage in public places.

 

At this rate they should have us all under house arrest again by December 24th.  If there's any more clapping for the NHS malarkey, I swear I'll  lead a rousing chorus of:

 

Hooray for the NHS!

 

Harold Shipman! Yeah!

Beverley Allitt! Yeah!

Liverpool Care Pathway! Yeah!

Fat and thieving nurses! Yeah!

Incompetent and lazy quacks! Yeah!

Tons of Midazolam for us now! Yeah!

Dr Kilmore will see you now! Yeah!

Dr Finisham has oodles of 'ash cash' now! Yeah!

Omicron hyped up...? probably

“It may be it’s highly transmissible, but so far the cases we are seeing are extremely mild,” she said. “Maybe two weeks from now I will have a different opinion, but this is what we are seeing. So are we seriously worried? No. 

 

Quick!

 

Everyone mask-up to protect yourself from a very mild disease without symptoms, for which you were vaccinated!

 

Although this mandate is explicitly for England, there will a huge resurgence of masking in Scotland. 100%

Wondering if I'm going to get more hassle than before not wearing a mask in supermarkets.

 

In the space of 6 months the security at my local Morrisons and Sainsburys have gone from mostly white security guards to Islamist looking blokes, who are these security firms that the big supermarkets contract out to?

If you're concerned about confrontation maybe buy one of these from ebay. People respond to something visual - prolly leave you alone.

 

Personally I don't mind having the convo with the security folks.

Larger. As a veteran of the University of Shite ( Russell Group of Shite), I remember that a nanoparticle is < 0.1 micron.

Fear-mongering twunts

 

 

Apparently, they are in trouble for using 'Christmas' as bait because it's offensive to minorities.

 

So, how's about no Hanukkah, which commences today, to halt the spread of Omnicon?

A micrometer is 1 x 10 ^-6

which is a millionth of a meter

A nanometer is  1 x 10 ^-9

which is one billionth of a meter

 

SARS-CoV-2 can vary in length from 9 to 12 nm: https://www.news-medical.net/amp/health/The-Size-of-SARS-CoV-2-Compared-to-Other-Things.aspx

 

So if you could take some  virus particles, and line them up against a ruler, it would  take around 100,000 particles to fill  the length of 1mm.

 

Clearly masks are a load of bollox, as the gaps in the weave will look like giant chasms to the particles.

They got to be crazier than I thought if they think I am going to put on a chin diaper.

Yes. What I have noticed, is that along many of these articles lately is the narrative to get tested. Which means they must be looking for excuses to lock us down most likely.

Or just buy freaking loads from our greatest philanthropes who recently bought test factories... This guarantee it will never end until people will act - good luck with this one...
