If you are under 70, not overweight, have no pre conditions, and keep up your Vit D and Zinc, your chances of having a serious problem from Covid are very low.

I have not had any shots, have been doing appointments all tax season, and I feel just fine.

Obtaining natural immunity may be just as effective and getting a shot.

I know I've been in the same room with folks that have subsequently been diagnosed with Covid a few times (they had symptoms before the get together).

I believe that I am at low risk to serious illness and refuse to live in fear of Covid. Period!

I'm just glad I'm not in a NY Nursing home complying with Gov Cuomo! That was a vulnerable population!

I believe Elon Musk took 4 tests in one day ... 2 were positive and 2 were negative!
 
What does a conspiracy have to do with anything, does someone need to be a conspiracy theorist to believe that the 500k is a pumped up number. Who ever said it was fake.
Do you know how they were labeling c19 "deaths".


Let's talk science.
They were testing for c19 using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR test), which was never designed to be used to diagnose, per Kary Mullis the inventor of it and the same guy who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1993 for it.
Did you know that when the US was going to start testing the PCR tests that were coming into the US that over 50 companies stop supplying them to the US.


Funny, now the WHO has something to say about the PCR tests, while they are making those doing the testing into billionaires.

Well I’ll watch those videos tomorrow, promise lol. Just took down the second tree in my yard.
So let’s say the number of deaths is artificially high. Let’s say it’s actually half, so around 260-270k (not sure what the current death total is because they’ve stopped reporting on it as much). Isn’t that still really high? Last time I looked, the US was leading the entire world in COVID deaths. That’s embarrassing! We used to be a leader, in actual good things not the number of deaths from a virus.
Also, if every other country was/is using that same flawed test we’re still leading the world. Maybe they are natural deaths? If that’s so then why are the natural death counts so much higher last year vs previous years? Anyway don’t want to debate COVID. If you think it’s BS then there’s no hope in persuading. If you think the media is all evil except a few select outlets (which probably reinforces your view) then there’s no hope. If you believe the virus is real, that it kills people, that the elderly/weaker citizens are most affected, then I think you should get the vaccine or at least keep your derogatory comments to yourself when you hear about someone getting it.

You know how much of the population will have to be infected to attain natural immunity? Let's say 75 - 85%! Death toll is 500k+(although it may be artificially high according to some). We're, as the supposedly most powerful country in the world, going to let this virus kill an exponentially higher amount of people just to attain natural immunity? When we have a freaking vaccine?

Yeah you refuse to live in fear of COVID so screw everyone else I guess. Like I said, America the Selfish. It's all about me. What about shared sacrifices for the common good?
 
Our twice-a-year, mandatory company meeting is in 3 weeks. The county health department will be on scene to administer the Johnson and Johnson vaccine to anyone who signs up. The company is offering $250 a head for anyone who gets it, and is giving a voucher for all the employees who have already participated and can provide proof of vaccination. I have not added my name to the list yet, but most likely will.
Imagine a disease so deadly you have to be tested to know you have it, and a cure so safe and effective you have to be paid to take it.
Not sure about Bill Gates, but I'd bet our health ins. provide is throwing a few bucks in the hat.
Fauci loves the new therapeutics and the so called vacs.

If you guys had/have a dedicated stumping saw, would you run a hard nose bar?
Yes. And maybe carbide chain.

A neighbor had her 75 year old Dad come by and help clean up some stuff in her yard. He had an MS180 and a bypass loper, which had to do everything: from 2" limbs up to a 16" stump. I tried not to be critical, and did offer to sharpen his chain, if desired, but he was OK with what he brought. I kept thinking about 'the right tool for the job'. A hand, pruning saw, or a pruning blade on a reciprocating saw, would have worked much better, along with an anvil lopper (it was all removal, no trimming). As for the stump . . . .

Well, they got it done and no body got hurt.

That's not how it works.
It's not just about immunity to c19, but rather to any corona viruses in general. Many already have t-cell immunity which is very important.
Sars is nothing new, or novel as they are calling it.
As Mike was saying, most people who die "from covid" have low V-D3, and also low zinc levels which is why HDC is helpful.
Also do you realize that the CDC killed people to prove that HDC was dangerous by giving people 2400mg instead of the 500mg or 400mg with the z-pack(azithromycin) as many used successfully.
They new it worked with corona viruses in 2005

This one is a great resource.
Many studies all over the world with live updates on HDC, ivermectin, v-c, v-c and many more, but it's very simple.

Great, if you're considering taking an experimental gene therapy you should be doing some raking up to understand what's going on, and I'd say ask you're wife to as well. I've put a lot of time into what I say and I say everything I say because I care, it would be much easier to just go alone with everything as many are doing.
I took a couple down yesterday, the piles grew a nice amount. I bucked a bunch today to be split for the woodshed, I may get to splitting them by the weekend, but work has picked up for me so it may have to wait.
It's not a suppose the numbers are flawed, they are flawed, but people have died, I cannot argue that.
What they haven't done is died at a higher rate than in the past. I'd like to see any info that shows higher numbers than previous yrs, that's not been in anything I've read or seen.

As I said above, there was much we could have done and could still be doing, using HDC and ivermectin, along with V-D3 and zinc could help. Another issue was putting so many infected people into the retirement homes as was done in NY, PA, and MI. Also when healthcare is forced to be done by doctors a certain way described by politicians instead of between the doctors and their patients.
I don't think the virus is bs, just much of what has happened around it.
Many of the MSM outlets are evil, but I listen to them as well as many others, I try to weed thru and find the truth in all of them without allowing the narrative's on either side to sway me. While many here think I'm conservative, I think they would have a hard time proving that based on fact, that being said they would have the same issue trying to prove I was a dem. If you notice, I try to use videos and info from both "sides" as to keep things more balanced.
I'm doing the best I can to provide a different perspective that I believe in, why is that derogatory, I find it derogatory that people would make statements that me not getting an experimental gene therapy drug is somehow harmful. The way I look at it is if I take it and my health declines, then how would I be helping my family. It's fact that there have been over 16k reports made to VARS about adverse effects from the c19 "vacs", there have been many deaths reported too, and hundreds of "breakthrough" cases where people who have received both shots(Moderna and Pizer) or the one(Johnson & Johnson) and have still tested positive and some who have died(three died and over 200 tested positive just here in mi), so why would I take it, and if the people who are dying on average are 80yrs old and the average age in the states is 78, then what's the real concern. I think people need to turn off the TV and to stop taking everything they hear or read in the news as fact, there's an overwhelming amount of fear **** being sold right now and it's been going on for quite some time. Meanwhile, there has been a huge transfer of wealth and we have all the c19 people coming in at the boarder, where's all the concern about the huge health crisis there?
I really hope this can help someone on the fence.
Even the zuckster is cautious.
 
Yes. And maybe carbide chain.
I agree.
And if you can't afford the carbide chain a good semi chisel chain with a 25 degree top plate angle or less and very little hook(side plate angle) will hold up quite well, and all the better if it's 404.
Did I throw one of those semi chisel safety chains in the box I sent, that's what I use, well at least when I remember them. Last time I wore out a newer exl chain :dumb:, I'm not sharpening it, it's ugly.

The CDC said that out of all who died with c19, only 6% died from c19 along, the others averaged 2.6 co-morbidities :oops:.
Natural immunity has been proven to last for up to 10yrs far many viruses, they've made it as though we can't possibly get along without a vac or an experimental drug these days. Since viruses are only around a couple yrs and they weaken as they mutate, the deaths will slow and it would have all disappeared had they not locked people down and lowered peoples immune response, not to mention everyone wearing a petrie dish on their face constantly. You've actually probably boosted your immunity to it and any of the new variants.
Yep, many died that could have been saved.
That's correct, he tweeted it out saying there must be something flawed with the test.
 
Where did I put that ban hammer?
Hey I have a hammer here at the house, it's under EUA until 2023. It's supposed to knock common sense into people, and it works on many people, there have been some side effects though...
Like I said before, guys want to talk about it, I'll talk about it too.
There's usually at least two sides to every story, anyone getting the experimental shots has their reasoning, I have mine against it as do millions of others including those in the health and scientific fields.
Farmer Steve.. you know what we need again don't you.
I'll get you some pics later.
 
Yes, a dedicated hard nose bar and a bunch of chains that have been sharpened many times - rather than a dedicated power head.
I have a Mac 610 that’s my dedicated stumping saw already. I’d rather torture that through long cuts rather than one of my good saws. It’s easier to have it ready to go with a stumping chain than have to swap chains at the end of the day.

I found some NOS Mac pattern hard nose bars for sale and was thinking about adding a bit more reach.
 
Neil - until FS can respond, here's some wood I scrounged up with the wheelbarrow this weekend....View attachment 900667View attachment 900668View attachment 900669View attachment 900670View attachment 900671
Pics of the wheelbarrow please lol.
I like that locust pile.
I was thinking of you last night, saw a fairly nice wheelbarrow and a bunch of used tires out in front of a house.
Speaking of that, have you ever seen the wheelbarrows at LKQ with the spare tires from cars for the wheels/tires, they cool great, too bad it wouldn't fit thru the front door here.
 
I agree.

I thought there were just tri-bumper chains in there. Didn’t check to see if chisel or semi.

Not sure what they are called. There were a couple that go with the bars, and I thought I dropped one of the 20x3/8 semi chisel in there. There are the safety chains used by Home Depot on their rental saws, I have a 5 gallon bucket of them. I cut the "shark fins"(Philbert had a good name for them but I cant remember it) and they will actually self feed very nice in very hard wood with a little extra hook and a 25 degree top plate angle, which really surprised me for how well they hold up. If the top plate was reduced to 20 degrees and less hook they don't feed as well, but they stay sharp a long time and will cut straight(nice in dirty wood too). One of the things I like in a stumping chain is for it to feed well, it's a lot on my back when down there flush cutting, I'd rather sit on the trailer sharpening for a bit so I leave them at 25 degrees and a little extra hook. If you want some let me know.
 
Hey, I don't knock anyone who got the vaccine, and if you feel vulnerable, get it, many of my client's have had it before I visit.

I don't feel vulnerable, and with all the trouble folks have getting it, I'll leave mine for someone who needs it more than I do. It is great that we have it for those in need.

However, 78% of the people who are hospitalized are over weight. There are thing we can do other than to just run out and get a vaccine.

I am not on ANY drugs, but that is rare for someone my age. As a Country, we are far too dependent on drugs and far less concerned about changing our lifestyle to become more healthy.

We treat everything with drugs ... including ADD, high blood pressure and heart and breathing problems. They ALL have serious side effects, we are just kicking the can down the road.

PS - A study just released this morning show the African strain of Covid is 5 times more likely to infect someone who is fully vaccinated than someone who is not vaccinated. THERE ARE NO ABSOLUTES! Do what you feel it right for you, and live with it.

I do NOT have any complaints that someone feels that I infected them, and I'm sure I would hear about it if that were the case.

Have a good day, this is America, LIVE FREE OR DIE!
