A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms between 2pm and 3pm. Mostly sunny, with a high near 88. Breezy, with a south wind 15 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.


Some of those vehicles look like they're equipped with lightening rods.

19 cases/100,000 over the past 2 weeks. Ohio, generally, is around 25 cases/100,000.

Despite Ohio's best attempts to invite COVID and the Delta variant in (I've only seen a handful of indoor masks - despite >50% unvaccinated), we're not succeeding yet. Give us time.

As a parent of a child who rode the "short" bus**, I can say unequivocally that our world would be much better with more of these children and adults than GQP people, and the two should never be compared. This insult should stop, because it makes DUers look like them.


**Now our school district uses regularly sized buses, but with a special designation in the number to indicate special needs children to first responders, etc.

They brought their lawn chairs and probably have a cooler in the car. A social event - go and meet kindred souls, like Bingo or football. They really have no lives to speak of and obviously none of them read, so what else are they going to do with their free time?

Leaving out the hellfire missile part.
We need herd immunity from these fools. A standard wildlife management practice for decades to maintain a healthy population is to thin the herd to stay below carrying capacity. Our population can no longer carry those assholes a day longer.
