Ain't Got Much

Light posting the past week or so. There isn't much to comment on that hasn't been said by me or others already.

Last night right before quitting time, I get a phone call from one of the department members. A deer got struck in front of his house, and the state trooper just put it out of its misery. He didn't want it and wanted to know if I knew anyone that did. I told him to stand by while I made a phone call. The first guy I called didn't answer, but the second guy did. I gave him the address and he said he and his brother were on the way to get it. I called the department member back to relay who was coming to get it and that they were on the way.

My sportsmans club needs venison for the game dinner in April, so that is where it was going to end up. The brothers picking up the carcass are also members of the club. The club has an outdoor area for field dressing and a large walk in cooler for storage. I got to the club first, opening up the house and turning up the heat. I then went out and shoveled snow off the side porch and back deck. For some reason those seem to get forgotten. The guys showed up and we got busy. I am not a hunter, so I had no idea how it was done, but I got a good lesson from a guy that has been doing it for probably 60 years. He made it look easy and because it was a large doe, he was glad to have an extra set of hands. He estimated she was probably 110 pounds. Club officials will be thrilled with the donation. BTW... since I am an EMT and have seen my share of death/blood 'n guts, it did not even phase me. All I could think about was the tasty meal I will be enjoying in April.

 

Warren Wilhelm CAN SUCK IT!

Comrade Warren Wilhelm (aka NYC Mayor Bill DiBlasio) has released his latest tyrannical diktat that all private companies in that shithole must have all their employees get jabbed. 

 

A question: if I live in Kommiecticut but work for a large company headquartered in NYC, and my operations office is in Hartford, would I be mandated to get jabbed? Sounds like an overreach of authority to me.

Got My Test Results

For the Chi-Com Xi Flu antibody test. They came in today's snail mail from my doctors office. Finally after almost a week of waiting and seeing nothing on Quest Diagnostics' website. I had created an on-line account and kept watching for my results, but the status still says "In Process." 

Anyway, the results came back incredibly, negative. But... the paperwork does say "A negative result does not rule out the possibility of a infection with SARS-CoV-2. Samples from the early (pre-seroconversion) phase of illness can yield negative findings." There is also something called "seroreversion" which happens when a long period of time has passed since contracting the virus. I believe I had the ChiCom Xi Flu in early March 2020 after catching it from my wife. I also believe she caught it from clients at her work, many of which are world travelers that were still coming and going because travel had not yet been restricted. 

So although I officially tested negative, there are many indicators that in hindsight, lead me to believe I did actually have the ChiCom Xi Flu in March 2020. For those reasons, and the fact I have been exposed to many COVID+ and suspected patients without even getting a case of the sniffles, I will continue to remain a Pure Blood and shun any and all jabs. So far, flying under everybody's radar I have yet to be hassled about it.

S&W M&P M2.0 45 Shield No Tool Disassembly

A short video of an alternative way to field strip the M&P M2.0 45 Shield. Mine has the tritium night sights and no manual safety. If you have a version of the same gun in a different caliber that disassembles the same way, this video may work for you too.

This is my first foray into recording and adding videos to my blog. Feel free to put some words of encouragement or constructive criticism in the comments section. 

Two For Two

I finally got up the nerve to ask my wife last night if she was planning on getting a booster jab. Her answer was a resounding "NO!" As I suspected, she only got the J&J because it was claimed to be "one and done."

When I asked my shift partner, who got his jabs in the first rounds of availability, the same question, his answer was the same as my wife's. He said he is pretty much over the whole thing.

At this point 100% of the people I've asked are done with this jab nonsense.

I am still waiting for the results of my antibody test. It has been twice as long as Quest's website says it should be. I am starting to get suspicious.
