Blazing Hot . . . Not!

For dinner tonight we used our Ninja Foodie Air Fryer Grille to cook up a batch of these Pilgrim’s Blazing Wings. They’re pre-breaded and ready to pop in the grille.

And they turned out great, juicy and crispy. But Blazing Hot they were not. At least not for Jan and I. Mildly Warm would be more accurate.

But they were good, and we’ll get them again, if only just for the convenience.

Our park owner said he was fine with the shed’s location, so I’ll bolt it down to the base tomorrow and then we can start sorting stuff and moving things into it.

I’m also going to replace all the inside and outside RG-6 cables for our satellite system. They’re all about 10 years old, and it seems like some of the connectors have become kind of flakey. Though I could go through and replace all the F connectors, it’s just quicker and easier to replace the cables.

I post some links a couple of days ago talking about whether or not the WuFlu has been circulating around the U.S. for longer than we realize. And here’s some more data on that.

CDC data suggests coronavirus may have been in California as early as December

And Iceland found that half of their population have apparently already had the WuFlu without knowing it.

Iceland has tested one-tenth of its population for coronavirus at random and found HALF of people have the disease without realising – with only seven deaths in 1,600 cases

And I’ve seen a number of posts from individuals who were sick around the December timeframe and went to the doctor. They were tested for Flu A, Flu B, mono, and strep, and it all came back negative. So they were told they had an ‘atypical’ flu, and sent home.

And another data point is the fact that a number of sewage plants around the country that tested for WuFlu found high levels of the virus in the sewage even in areas with a low number of diagnosed cases.

If this is correct, and there are a lot more people out who have already had the Kung Flu with no dire results, it means two things. One, that there are a lot less people who can still catch the virus, which means that things could be opened back up sooner. And two, the mortality rate is actually a lot lower that thought, maybe even as low as the 0.1% from the seasonal flu.

Remember in all this that according to the CDC, 80 to 85% of people who get the WuFlu have little or no symptoms.


Thought For The Day:

If a woman says, “do what you want”, do not do what you want. Stand still, don’t blink, don’t answer, don’t even breathe. Just play dead.
