re: Alpha Gal - the tick-borne meat allergy

The tick can pass on alpha gal even if on you for only a small time.
I know what you mean, but let me clarify to avoid confusion. The tick has to bite you, not just be on you. And the reaction, if there is one, is instanteous. It an immunological response. It my not appear for a long time, but you had it the instant the tick bit you. But not all ticks carry it and not all people are affected that get bit.
That is why you use a lot of Off if you are going into the woods.
I haven't read all these pages.
But if I had a bombshell of a report and I was in his position, I wouldn't announce it beforehand. I'd just report it. I don't want to be killed beforehand and probably not afterhand either.

Love them. But 2 lane ones make me nervous because of other drivers.

Good grief, this is terrible. Have two gs on that team. Ugh. What I've been told to do IMMEDIATELY is to put ice on the left side of neck, wet down, and then over the head and then heart. If you have enough ice you cover the entire body, but keep the ice on the neck in close contact, especially over the head. You gotta get that brain cooled down.
I
Think I'd have a freaking covered ice bath near the field anytime temp was over 90 degrees.
IDK what the difference between the kids nowadays and the old days, but we always had kids passing out or throwing up at practice. And practices lasted a lot longer and we ran a lot more in full pads. Of course, most of us were skinny and stayed outside all day. IDK.
Prayers sent.

First of all everyone needs to be familiar with the most common places ticks are. If there are deer in your area, you have ticks. I've learned they are concentrated, not in the woods, but in those little ditches you cross to get into the woods. Seriously. Doesn't have to be any water in them, just grass and probably not mowed in a while. I've done an experiment to see how many steps i could take without getting a tick on me crossing these ditches I knew had them. Two steps was the most. Always had them by the third step. Wore all white and had Off on underneath. Of course, they are in the woods itself, but most of the time you can avoid brushing up against grasses and tickseed in the woods.
Wear the freaking Off if you have any chance of being exposed! Especially around the ankles and wrists and shoulders,neck.

All I know is they make great money.
re: If a Democratic socialist (communist in reality) gets elected to president would you rise
Posted by jeffsdad on 8/20/26 at 9:46 am to Hawgnsincebirth55
No.
If elected he would get elected by disclaiming communism. After being elected he would put into effect one hundred per cent communist policies, BUT, if he said, "I'm not a communist," eighty percent of Democrats would believe him, if he said "I'm REALLY not a communist." 100% of Democrats would believe him. If he said "I'm REALLY, REALLY not a communist, all the democrats and all the rinos would believe him.
The military would be washed of all the conservatives, just as the POS Obama did during his tyrancy. (at least most of them). The military would do as ordered because the main stream media would be there usual pro-communist self. Any non-communist media would simply be killed.
It would be a process that wouldn't take long, but be well planned out.

re: NYTimes: US Navy Is Getting Oil Through the Strait of Hormuz
Posted by jeffsdad on 8/20/26 at 9:02 am to Major Dutch Schaefer
The main purpose of CNN and the NYTimes reporting this is probably to make sure Iran knows about it.
Well, amazingly, the weather forecasters are actually getting it correct lately. Been the worst year for weather forecasting that I've ever seen.
I think there is a significant number of conservatives that answer polls the opposite of how they intend to vote. I know I do.

This is what the communists are pushing very hard. Its their only chance and only lie they can tell the blacks that the blacks may believe. If the democrats didn't foment racism, very little racism would be shown in the USA.
Pedophilia is a huge business in California. Most coastal Californians support it.
They were dealing Iran hug amounts of oil WHILE Iran was bombing their country. Makes a lot of sense.
I watched the final 3 minutes at home. I really did miss the best part. dangit. Grown woman really did end up being a lousy person - let her twin family go back in time and just saved her husband and a few friends.
Did anyone get the gist of why the chimney was left "unblocked"?
So the water monsters could flood the place when they wanted.
Besides a lot of dumb things, there is no way they could have lived 5 years like that. Maybe a year at the most. Growing a garden indoors and it being enough to feed a family of 4, 5 years? naw. The trapping animals thing was brilliant, I wouldn't have been able to figure that out.

re: UAE removes Iran lifeline after Iran attacked UAE
Posted by jeffsdad on 8/19/26 at 6:30 pm to captainFid
HELP ME UNDERSTAND.
Iran has attacked the UAE multiple times over the last six months, with the most significant wave occurring between February 28 and April 8, 2026, when it launched approximately 3,000 projectiles. This initial phase involved 550 ballistic missiles, 29 cruise missiles, and more than 2,200 drones, making the UAE the most-targeted country in the region during that period.
So they JUST NOW decide to do this? Don't understand.

We kinda liked it. But not a lot. Should be "The Movie of a Thousand Stupid Mistakes! Really, Really, Realy STUPID mistakes."
Family escapes dinos for the 5th time. mind you, that dinos are everywhere in this show, and also flying. Meets new girl. Stands in middle of street introducing themselves and just having a jolly time. Boy chases dog being chased by dino, girl chases boy, mom and pop chase everyone. All are screaming their heads off hollering for one another. Getting low on food but pass up tons of pantry food in houses. Have maritial problemsi/arguments n between being chased by dinos. Grown female basically being a non-thinking fool and
husband a wimp.
And I missed the last two minutes, we had to leave when there was a scene of a police car overlooking the dino section. IDK what happened after that.

Wonder how long this thread would be now if adminstration hadn't cut a lot of it out. I think they probably cut off at least 2000 pages.

Well, you take away the reloads, jams, and changing barrels, and don't give the legions javelins and thats a biased look. Add those and I think the number of legions that get within javelin range makes a huge difference.
