    Yes once it has proven effective and been tested by all the people who will be first in line....I figure 3-6 months after the vaccinations start....

     I'll request a 3ple dose for my 3 hands. 

     

    It's 95% effective. Are you also using statistics when gambling/betting or when getting in car/using other means of transport, eating red meat/drinking coffee/alcohol/drugs/Epogen/smoking Cohibas or  Arturo Fuentes?  :P

  10. Armored Saint

    in Heavy Metal

    Broke the rule of not listening to new singles  but, Sweet mother of Jesus, this is real pounding  heavy metal with an aging bouquet of leather, tobacco and the occasional cinnamon aroma.... My back's still aching since their latest Greek gig...

    "End of the Attention Span" from the "Punching the Sky" album.
    Bassist Joey Vera comments: "We've teamed up with video director Robert Graves for our first single, 'End of the Attention Span'. Robert got the lyrical content right away and together we delved into society's ongoing fascination with electronic devices and the insidious disconnect it creates. The irony is that most of us feel connected together through our phone and computer screens, but the reality is that we have created a wedge between ourselves. Our human interactions have been infected with an intense need for information. We're always 'looking' for more. The end result is a very damaged attention span."

    Produced by: Defiant Digital Productions (http://www.defiant-digital.com)
    Director: Robert Graves
    Grip: Israel Gutierrez

    The weirdest thing is that Trump, in claiming that it was terrorism (which is not weird at all) said that his army officials thought that due to the type of explosion, that they thought it was terrorism.

    Now I'm no expert by any means, but when I first saw it, I didn't think terrorism for a second, it's just not the type of bamb that they would have access to or use.

    Over 100 dead last I hear and 4000 injured.
    During a pandemic, with a corrupt governement and a shitty state of living already.
    Sad.

     

    Maybe the explosion reminded him the case of Timothy McVeigh. 

     

    Btw, I felt the explosion and the sound wave of it (living  120-150 miles NW from Beirut). Initially I thought it was some military exercise from the Turkish Army in the north. A similar explosion happened here in 2011 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelos_Florakis_Naval_Base_explosion) and as usual the true perpetrators  escape the justice. 

  14. Forgotten Hard Rock Albums: ICON - "Night Of The Crime" (1986)

    in AOR and Hard Rock

    Posted · Edited by kourosofsteel3

    One of the first band logos I ever tattooed in my arm . It took me years to convince the guitarist (where art thou, buddy, missing ya dearly) to  send me his killer leather jacket (which I sent back the day  I became vegan). A prime example of why I stopped listening to new releases, focusing only on releases  of the past (especially 80's and 90's that I missed back then for whatever the reason, obviously Icon doesn't belong to that category, it just wipes the floor with new stuff).

     

    Curious to find  where it will land when I manage to finish my ratings of that year ( I won't be surprised to find it just below, even  on par with monsters of that year such as Liege Lord, Savage Grace, Omen,  Saint Vitus,  Fates Warning,  Watchtower, Slayer, Ария, Dokken, Kat,  Agent Steel, Savatage, Stormwitch, Yngwie etc etc etc)...

     Kung Flu....is that racist? A poor joke maybe but if that is racist then I'm losing the plot or the plot is losing me....:wacko:

     

    Racist "Joke" from the most powerful man of the world ( not from the local barstool warrior), coming straight from a conservative's handbook, thriving on populism and Goebbels' maxims . Blaming  others  for his inability to act EARLY on the virus pandemic.  Something you would expect from puppet politicians from 3rd world countries/banana republics/mob states/you name it , not from the president of the  most powerful nation of the world (meanwhile, Putin is having a party on behalf of this POTUS).

    Very good. Sad as fuck about the kid in the car... but interesting video. I would love for Glen and all his lemmings to take a look in at that one. 

    You don't agree with the death penalty? You're happy for the most horrendous of criminals to continue living, and often be let back into society... something they've ensured their victims will never do?

    If I could change one thing about the justice system right now, it would be that the death penalty was used everywhere for fitting crimes. 

    And for anyone with half a brain you know this is much closer to where things are actually at, but try convincing hordes of outraged morons. :(

    As evidenced in posts I made above, anything I mentioned about another side to the story was completely ignored by Glen. And sadly they're all the same. They're just so focused on this moronic outrage that facts and both sides of the story don't matter to them as it undoes all their stupid thinking. Very sad. 

      Would you hold the same opinion if the suspect of a murder was a dearest member of your family?

    It all really started with global warming, that's when the whole "you better be in line with my over the top PC comments of I'll destroy you" mentality kicked in.



     

    The 1st recorded attack on global warning was in 1989, during the year when the  Berlin Wall fall , Warsaw Pact had fallen apart, Soviet Union was disintegrating and the end of the cold war was in sight (still hair/glam metal was going strong, though, lol). And started not from the ones, I suppose, you were thinking of.

     

    Soon, all those war hawks/cold warriors  would be left in the footnotes  of the history. But no! They decided to fight on, finding the new enemy in environmentalists. Always that black or white mindset.  Of course, the hilarious thing was that they initially  didn't choose to attack global warming ( the scientists bringing the matter to public awareness). Instead they blamed the sun! 

     

    Read the book, it''s funny  and with  a hooky title "Global Warning: Whats Does The Science Tell Us?". The authors are the  same people  from the George Marshall Institute which   was  getting massive   financial support from oil companies.  Before that they were the major defenders  of tobacco industries in matters related to smoking and cancer. 

     

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_C._Marshall_Institute

    "The George C. Marshall Institute (GMI) was a nonprofit conservative think tank in the United States.[2] It was established in 1984 with a focus on science and public policy issues and was initially active mostly in the area of defense policy. Since the late 1980s, the Institute put forward environmental skepticism views, and in particular has promoted fringe views regarding the scientific consensus on climate change.[3] The think tank received extensive financial support from oil companies.[3]"
