I have a newer version in a solid green shirt that re-took at the same dock several years ago when needed something for a new website. Use it on the “Contact Me” page, holding a IPad like waiting. The patterned shirt looked to dated. Both were selfies, camera on tripod and controlled with the iPad I am holding. Ever since have alway posted the solid green shirt version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tizeye Posted January 10, 2022 Share #18 Posted January 10, 2022 I didn't want this tagged as political so I left Gov DeathSantis out of it. Strong speculation that he also had COVID during his mysterious absence from the public after Christmas, but won't admit it. Prefers wife's cancer treatment excuse "supporting wife...and shame on you for asking." Facts are that she had one chemo appointment which he did accompany...then he dragged her around to public events despite her immunosuppressed state as an actively treated cancer patient. What really fueled speculation was a press conference after New Years where notably bloated, pale, and winded. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Framed like that on the usual websites, of course, it makes it sound like she was on ecstasy at raves until 5:00 in the morning, which she wasn't. To be fair, that she was photographed with a drink in her hand at a restaurant's sidewalk cafe outdoors during the day with her boyfriend is not "partying" and is not evidence of anything other than being hungry and ordering a drink at a restaurant or being on vacation. Hugging people at the drag queen thing shows some really bad judgement, though. Not sure why anyone would think that is a good idea at any time (I think drag queens are the lowest form of "entertainment" out there), much less when omicron is shredding anyone it even looks at. Dumb, and dumber. I understand that she has to fall all over herself to show how inclusive she is and all, but geez, wtf? And vacationing publicly where there are lots of folks all around you is stupid in this particular minute, too. Go to the mountains or an isolated beach or something. Just ridiculous, more obvious instruction in what not to do. That said, I don't think her catching covid in Florida is such an own or a 'victory' like the one side wants to make it out to be, though. For dog's sake, it happened in FLORIDA, where you even can't get in the state unless you prove you currently have coronavirus and you are super-willing to spread it around. She didn't get it all in Washington or in New York, but step in FL for a minute (or hug a drag queen), and see what happens. Just more people on both sides doing dumb things and generating dumb headlines about the dumb things being done with dumb spins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
