Flu deaths were down 56,000 this past flu season! Woohoo

That's because everyone dying of the flu the season has been reclassified to presumably dying of Covid. I cant wait to see what the total number of deaths regardless of cause is for the US in April. My guess is it will again be well under the recent avg like March was. Apparently COVID is saving American lives. I bet the sheep are having their minds blown by that fact.

Welcome to the fire, Henry. I still think your numbers are way off but time will tell. Keep in mind the numbers have to be accurate to begin with. Lots of doctors have already admitted the numbers are being fudged. Deaths are already being marked as corona when they are not even corona related. Corn in, corn out. Again, welcome to the fire.

I am certain the numbers are not precise. However, when they are bringing in refrigerated trucks for bodies in America it gives me pause.

This is anecdotal but i thought I would say it anyway. I live west about 30 min of St. Louis (which is a liberal hellhole if you ever saw one). Crime has gradually been increasing here from outlaws coming from the city. Also, after the Ferguson riots, folks got a little on edge, myself included.

During and now after Ferguson, I have acquired the proclivity of listening to the local police and ems scanner quite regularly (drives my wife nuts as you can imagine).

For the past week or two it has been unreal with the amount of 911 calls for "difficulty breathing, sick case, covid advise". Some days its every 30 min, some days its every 2 hours. I would say maybe half are from area nursing homes. What I am hearing on the emergency radio frequency in no way reflects the number of "confirmed" cases we supposedly have in my county. Like I said this is all anecdotal and could be all tin foil hat bull****. Time will tell. It has been enough for me to plant a large vegetable garden out back.

I do completely agree corn in, corn out.

By my calculations, we are looking at 800k dead minimum if we do everything right to closer to 2M dead if we do everything wrong. I think 1M dead in the next 18-24 months maybe conservative. But, I am a conservative, and this is just my opinion.

Captain Call is my favorite character in my most favorite movie. Sounds like I would like that guy.

Yea, he's a pretty good dude and a heck of a fisherman!
That movie was made on my deer lease! I've kilt turkeys under those pecan trees where he brought Gus back and buried him!

[Henry66]

****, that sounds awesome. May I ask where you hunt? I always had envisioned it was near Carrizo Springs (at least that's what I tell myself when I am down).

I will say after a few drinks I have never been successful in persuading my guys to take a trip down in to Mexico and cross some stock.

It was the Moody Ranch south of Del rio. Mr. Moody died back in '14 and the family sold the ranch in '15, so we don't hunt there any longer... that scene where they had the cattle drive crossing the river and the kid fell into the water and the snakes got him was actually Sycamore creek about a mile up from the mouth of it where it runs into the Rio Grande. Had the camera panned around to the right about 10 more feet in that scene, our camp would have been in the shot. The town of Lonesome Dove was actually built on the bank of the Rio Grande for the movie. Got pics of my kids when they were little sitting on the porch of the house and on the balcony of the Hotel in town... pretty cool deal, but it's all gone now. Mesicans pretty much stole everything and carried it back across the river...

That is really neat. Bet the pic with your kids on the porch is really cool.

There are so many lessons in that movie that I think society would a better place if more would learn them.
