So the most important thing is not to”keep your eye on the ball” whatever the fuck that means. The most important thing is to be smart and continue to social distance and not be ignorant to the situation.
That's obviously EXACTLY what "keep your eye on the ball" means.
You just want to argue everything. You're just like Enfuego, except every once in awhile he's actually right.
So nice to see people out on the Square in Georgetown on such a beautiful night (currently 83 degrees). Some of us are happy to enjoy ourselves. Others are welcome to stay in solitary confinement. You do you.
I thought you were in Round Rock, did you move?
I did. We were in an apartment complex in Round Rock but their fitness center wasn't that great (and I train people there). So we moved to Wolf Ranch and then the SOBs promptly closed down their fitness center when this virus came along (so I have to train people in school yards and parks temporarily). My gym closed (main job) so it's all my private business right now. We bought a house in Round Rock in September but because of 1031 exchange rules, we have to rent it out for a couple of years. If the current tenants stay for 24 months (they only signed a 12 month lease), we will be moving to Round Rock in September of 2021.
Funny... I think my son worked out at that gym before it closed. And, my daughter works at the coffee shop in Wolf Ranch.
Pausing further re-opening. NOT rolling back what's already open. Sounds prudent to me.
If he has to roll back some re-opening in certain places that's fine too.
It was time to start re-opening when he did, now it seems like it's time to hit the pause button.
The point is he's not going to base Texas policy on advice from Fauci or Cuomo. Also sounds prudent to me.
So where's this big "gotcha" moment that you think you have found?
Apparently I was living rent free in the Useful Idiot's head for the last two months (that brings a smile to my face). He's good at moving goal posts, but not so good at remembering that his original metric was deaths. And despite the increase in hospitalizations, there still is no surge in deaths. He's got no "gotcha" right now. Obviously it needs to be monitored because deaths have started to edge up and Abbott is taking a measured approach to it which is admirable. The bottom line is the Useful Idiots will always say it's a bad time to open (they just have no idea when a good time is and just give some ambiguous comment without any specificity at all...a convenient position so they can continue to be critical).
Deaths:
W/E 4/30 221
W/E 5/7 191
W/E 5/14 243
W/E 5/21 224
W/E 5/28 161
W/E 6/4 166
W/E 6/11 153
W/E 6/18 185
W/E 6/25 191
Anybody else seeing a surge? Me neither.
I'm not too concerned about his media BS, just the most relevant numbers. Since most of the new entrants are young, they will be non-events. The only question is obviously if they spread it to others. But the numbers aren't showing anything yet. And as it is, we are still the 2nd most populous state in the country and 99,992 out of every 100,000 people have survived this virus. But yeah, everyone should run into the closet and hide because this Useful Idiot says so.
