RANT CORNER

I socially distance meticulously, except for kissing my girlfriend who goes fuck knows where, and doesn't seem to have any regard for the lockdown.
When this covid issue is finally over, I think we should have a full and worldwide lockdown to kill the common cold. Whenever I've had a bad cold I've always wondered whether it's possible, but now we've got experience in lockdowns, social distancing and isolation...
And what about vaccines for the common cold, if they can compress 10 years of vaccine production into a few months? It may not kill but it makes me feel as though I'm dying.
There must be a lot of lost revenue due to people unable to work with a really bad cold, plus the sheer misery of having snot constantly dripping off your nose - it should be the world's next priority.
There isn't always a silver bullet solution that requires zero effort and has no side effects. It's like saying there's a magic solution to instantly improve your fitness instead of doing exercise, to instantly increase your knowledge without studying or to buy a trading system strawberry strategy video pack course book and become profitable without losses the next day
LOL
I buy bags of sweets every week and rarely buy alcohol maybe I'm an oddity.
That was a joke Alex, about being the world's next prioity. Obviously it wouldn't be practical to put the whole world in lockdown. Besides, too many people won't believe the common cold exists and carry on spreading it.alexmr2 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 14, 2021 10:14 pmViruses are an essential part of life and needed to maintain our immune system, health and much more.Derek27 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 09, 2021 5:24 amI'd be willing to pay a lot for my dose.

I am ranting about having ranted the other day on the cricket thread and for doubting myself.

Love reading Dereks rants.
I particularly like the washer nuts and bolt rants.

My dog used to think it was an emergency if it had a flea.
She passed away suddenly in Nov Derek, kidney failure in 3 days. I'll settle for an ending like that though, she didn't suffer long. She was 16 and I got her when I quit office life so we've been side by side 247 all that time, it's really tough and you'll relate to what the empty space near my feet feels like.
Don't sweat the small stuff Derek, life will bring something along soon enough for you to be actually bothered about.
