    Apparently it settled down. We’ll see what develops next. I don’t want WW3, that would be truly horrific. 

    My understand is the US position today being stated to Israel is that as there was no damage done by these drone strikes, there is no need to retaliate for them, as they were a response to the Israel attack on the Iranian Embassy. No telling that that will prevent another Iranian attack, but I think it’s the right message at the moment.

     I understand that the booster won’t prevent infection, I can only assume it kept it from being worse than it was. 

    Yeah, and there’s some thinking that the vaccine can help prevent against the development of long Covid.

    I’m in my car at lunch, and flicked to the Beatles Channel, playing a song called ‘Carol’. Deeply obscure.

    It’s a Chuck Berry song. The Stones cover it on their 1969 tour as heard on the Get Your Ya Yas Out live album.

    IMO the Beatles had very few real missteps but this I find this as unlistenable as "Revolution #9".  

    What’s the New Mary Jane is objectively terrible. :D

    wah wah by George Harrison.

    That’s obscure? I’d see that as one of Harrison’s most well know solo project. :dontknow:

  4. I got off my butt and got the COVID vaccine booster last week. I’ve seen too many people get fairly sick this spring. Not dying, but feeling really terrible for a while. I’m not even sure what variant is circulating and how well the coverage is, but I’m sure it will reduce infection symptoms if exposed. I had a sore shoulder for a weekend. 
     

    Ah, it’s JN.1, with the bivalent vaccine having good effectiveness (although somewhat less compared to other strains).

    They were REALLY against the breakaway from the dying LF.  Misplaced loyalties I think.  It was great in its heyday but it just lost its steam and support.

    I seem to remember them disappearing from LF before it completely went under, too. :dontknow:

    I sometimes wonder how Soy at Mittens from LF didn’t make the transition. They were such frequent posters, it seems like there would be a hole in their lives without a forum to post on. I doubt they’re all organic farmers now.
