OHHH, she's a Star Wars character, that makes the story even more mysterious, thanks for adding that tidbit.  Does Tucker know her name?

Sad thing is, this is a surprise to many people.  Yet these mutations have been reported since last April.

How do you afford it there.  Your hands are too small to even flip burgers.  Texas sounds like your kind of place, you don't have to go all the way to Costa Rica.

A queer accused me of stealing a TV in Costa Rica one time.  True story.

You did steal it though didn't you?

One more Island that Cals is not welcome. He is down to Guam, East Timor, Nauru and Hawaii with the posibility of Catalina if he pays his bar tab at Club Chi.

Are we going to need to add up the countries you may or may not have an outstanding warrant?

Geography now added to his list of you really don't know things.  Blarg, Costa Rica is not where Trump went and tossed paper towels.

I knew a guy in high school who though Alaska was an island because it’s always shown by itself like Hawaii on maps. He was a special one.

New Zealand shut it's borders, and wrecked it's economy.  Just to keep Cals out.  The Rona is just a cover story.

California Governor Gavin Newsom Chooses Big Political Donors To Run State’s Vaccination Program

California man tests positive for COVID-19 weeks after second jab: report

A California man said he was diagnosed with COVID-19 three weeks after he received his second dose of the vaccine, reports said.

CBS Los Angeles reported that Gary Micheal, who lives in Orange County’s Lake Forest, found out he had the virus after being tested for an unrelated health concern. His symptoms are relatively minor, the report said.

He received the Pfizer vaccine, the report said. Patch.com reported that he got his first dose on Dec. 28 and his second jab on Jan. 18.

A doctor interviewed in the CBS report said that he was not surprised to hear about Michael's diagnosis.

"I think I’ve heard of six or seven independent cases over the last three weeks of individuals that have been vaccinated with different timelines that have tested positive, and I think we’re going to continue to see that more and more,"  Dr. Tirso del Junco Jr., chief medical officer of KPC Health, told the station.

This makes sense. The course of the virus runs 10-14 days on average. If he was diagnosed at week three, he was probably infected during week one, before he reached 94-95 percent immunity.

I hit the two week mark tomorrow. I am still taking precautions because nothing is 100 percent, and I had rather not end up on a vent.
