Shacked up in a hotel with my uncle east of Baton Rouge

It's our turn. The bayous, marshes and deltas did their job giving Ida a gut punch. Disgusting how that natural defense is being destroyed.

It's knarley out there but nothing like folks to the south. Took my uncle out for a ride for a few hours earlier which was interesting, my uncle I mean lol. 93year old Korean War vet and his bottle of Cutty Shark. He gets and can do what he wants for the most part as far as I'm concerned. He's still smart as a whip and in no way feeble.

Were getting some good 80-90 mph gusts. I think he knows he may not be living on Grand Isle anymore. I love this old guy.

Lets be real on some of the vaccination hesitancy

Now that the FDA has approved at least the Pfizer vaccine insurance companies butts are covered. One of the biggest road blocks to the private community, especially small businesses, mandating vaccines was their insurance providers not covering them because they would mandate a non FDA approved treatment. When are we as a country going stop letting these multi billion dollar "gamblers" stop dictating the rules of the very game "of risk" they wish to indulge themselves? I wish I could go to Vegas and manipulate the rules of the game of risk of my choosing to only benefit me and not the majority of the players that sweeten the pot. Insurance, like the stock market and the black jack table is gambling pure and simple. Insurance in this country is gambling where the high rollers set the rules. It must stop.

The MSM has Afghan people on their shows ...

thanking them for helping America in Afghanistan. What kind of arrogant BS is that? Seriously. I'm speechless. As far as I'm concerned we deserve every and any repercussion from the last 20 years. All of this hype is BS. Sorry people are dying, sorry women are being persecuted like they are in untold other countries around the world, including our own. Sorry, we cant fix the world. I'm embarrassed that the media is saying thank you for supporting the US. Thats just fucked up.
