When I open the thread there is a pause and then "Do you want to translate from Polish?" pops up......seems appropriate LOL
Greg, are you saying in a general sense that once we post something we cannot remove it without invoking Herb's help?

What if we post something, fates forbid, that we regret and wish to remove after 'sober second thought'?

The thing is literally thousands of lines long and to highlight it and delete would take hours..

Interesting.  the edit function showed the image, not all that text.  I was able to simply click on the image to highlight it and then delete.  Added a couple of sentences so it wouldn't be blank as per Greg's tip.

So, anyway, after all that, wasn't the image droll? cwy

Vast Majority of Republicans Won't Get Boosted

Posted By David Cotterell

Sooooooo, take my medical advice from Richard Davis or from my family doctor.....  Hmmmmm, what should I do?

I've booked my booster shot for Dec 16.  I will be less likely to catch Covid, be much less likely to get bad symptoms or 'long covid' if I do catch it, less likely to die from a breakthrough case of covid, less likely to pass it on to my immune-compromised partner, less likely to be the 'petri dish' for a new mutation.  The possibility of long Covid symptoms alone should be enough to make everyone want to be as vaxxed as possible.

Reducing all these risks is the only sensible thing to do.

Thanks for the update, Richard.
