    What happened to Expeditors online?

    Wow! I had forgotten about that piece until you mentioned it here. It turns out I still have it on file. While EO published it, I retained copyright rights to the piece so I can share it if you wish. It is a bit dated, I would think. Written in 2012.

    What happened to Expeditors online?

    In my case, that's exactly the reason. Once very active on EO and interested in all things expediting, I'm only occasionally active now as I'm not in the business any more. I'd be interested to hear what the "modern generation of expediters" is. What makes this generation different from those...

    Can the federal government legally require businesses that employ 100 people or more to make COVID-19 vaccinations a condition of employment? That question is working its way through the courts now. As a business owner with less than 100 employees, I am not directly affected by the mandate...

    Election Night Nov. 2, 2021

    A cursory preview of last night's election results and today's headlines suggests to me that the Democratic candidates counted on people hating Trump more than they provided reasons for people to like them. With Trump himself not on the ballot, that proved to be a fatal mistake. If Trump is on...

    Death by DeSantis

    I'm not going to get into the Russian thing but you're right about Hilary. She blamed everyone but herself for her loss.

    Death by DeSantis

    While not specifically stated, it was in direct response to your snapshot posts. I generally am not motivated to say anything about DeSantis on this forum, except when offended by your one-sided and inaccurate posts about him. Tell the whole story, not just part of it. Your endless DeSantis...

    It's a little bit interesting that Trump appointees are ruling with the majority since a good number of people incorrectly assume that judicial appointees are somehow obligated to reflect the nominating president's views. Trump himself would likely rule against vaccine mandates if he could. The...

    Death by DeSantis

    Go back and look. I did not say what I said as a snapshot analysis. I said it specifically to present the bigger picture, which was needed to correct the incomplete snapshot analysis you then gave. One thing you consistently do in this forum is select particular facts, rip them out of context...

    Death by DeSantis

    Depending on the time period you select, you can probably find a snapshot time when just about any state had the lowest coronavirus case rate in the country. Applause for that? I think not. This kind of snapshot "analysis" is like applauding the stopped clock because it's right twice a day.

    Several of our gym members have gotten their COVID-19 booster shots. I have to wait a bit to get mine because of the 90 window following monoclonal antibody treatment. On day 91, I'll be rolling up my sleeve.

    One of many. Interesting that U.S. Supreme Court Trump appointees are voting with the majority on this one. The reason court challenges to vaccine mandates are failing in numerous courts is simple. The law is clear. The government has the constitutional authority to mandate vaccines.

    The Trump Card...

    While these reports are of some interest, it seems to me the rhetoric is well ahead of the facts in this case. It is not illegal to plan a political rally or series of rallies. And when such plans are being made, it is common for interested parties to work, coordinate and consult with each...

    I see competition for this year's Darwin Awards is intense. "In the spirit of Charles Darwin, the Darwin Awards commemorate individuals who protect our gene pool by making the ultimate sacrifice of their own lives. Darwin Award winners eliminate themselves in an extraordinarily idiotic manner...

    Is COVID-19 like the flu? Many people said it was early on. Now it is clear. COVID-19 is not like the flu. There is no such thing as "long flu." But "long Covid" is a thing. Excerpt: "The study, which describes the the kinds of cognitive problems experienced by patients who had been treated...

    People who opposed vaccine mandates on the basis that such mandates are unconstitutional are finding the courts do not agree. It seems the government does indeed have the right to impose vaccine mandates. This is not new. That was established by law and upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court long ago...

    Which is better, $700 pills that can be taken anywhere, or $2,000 infusion treatments that are given at infusion centers or other medical facilities, or vaccinations that help prevent infections or reduce the severity of the disease (and deaths) at a fraction of these prices?

    I presume most doctors follow FDA guidlines and therefore presume most doctors do not prescribe Ivermectin for COVID-19. For those who do, what is your basis for saying they should prescribe human doses to treat the virus? At present, there is no proper-research evidence that Ivermectin works...

    The person I know telling others to take horse medicine is not a doctor. He is a former friend of mine who advocates it on his Facebook page, where I saw it, and presumably elsewhere. He was using my Facebook feed to advocate the practice too, until I blocked him. When I called him out for...
