TauntonBlizzard2013

I’ve seen the same handful of people since March, wear a mask whenever required to do so, and haven’t been anywhere you’d really consider a high risk. I’ve been out to eat once and haven’t been to any theaters gyms or anything like that. It is what it is, trying to do my best... we will be seeing some family for thanksgiving, in the safest way we can do it. Can’t completely shut down living your life

Looks like that shed is due to be replaced

We rain?

The appetite for another lockdown I think is close to zero, especially since people feel misled about timelines and what was closed or open when it happened. Unless you plan on literally giving businesses enough money to close for x amount of time and then enough money to rehire every single employee when they can reopen, in addition to supporting citizens with real money (not a one time $1200 payment) it’ll never work. A starting point for compliance is probably going to be thousands of dollars per month per person.

My buddy interned with the Celtics a few years ago... said Tommy was a remarkably normal fun guy. Never lost that with all the fame and accolades. Im not sure people truly realize what an incredible loss this is. There will never be anyone else like him in sports more than likely. Been a part of ever Celtics championship, literally. Truly sad day.

But did they provide proof of their negative covid test?!

I’m fully planned to pull the plug on my weekend trip the week before Christmas to NH... obviously they have a better shot at staying open to visitors, but I would not be surprised at all if 5-6 weeks from now we are back to no state to state travel

Sounds a little different than what @powderfreak mentioned during the summer.

Basically, don’t come.

RIP Tommy Heinsohn.... A Boston and Celtics institution

Super bowl back on!

No fans at Gillette at all this year.... pats don’t seem to happy. Seems like we aren’t following the science anymore in mass. Schools=good... outdoor stadium at 20% capacity= bad. Masks anywhere outdoors now? Just making shit up now

A side note, it is kind of hilarious that one of the few companies not involved in the trump admins “operation warp speed” vaccine program is the leader in the clubhouse to produce an effective vaccine. Been a rough week for Don.

Heh.... I’m not optimistic. Between the skepticism of the fast rollout and the already large (and growing) anti vaxx crowd in this country, that’s a large number to get too

How many people have to get it for it to be effective?

Yeah... ultimately it’s everyone’s personal choice. If it came out tomorrow, I’d get it if I had the chance, but that’s just me. If this stands up to the reviews and science, hopefully people get it. It’s going to be a tough pill to swallow if everyone says we need to follow the science, and this thing gets approved and is given the green light by the science community and then people go “yeah I’m good, I’m not going to get it right now”

Pretty much my thought. Releasing this info and then having it shredded in the next few weeks would be bad business. It makes no sense for a company to release garbage vaccines. My guess is whoever gets it out there, it’s going to be fairly safe.

Don’t want to jump the gun obviously, but there are doctors out there that say it may very well be good. Probably the best news we’ve gotten since this started nearly 10 months ago. Seeing some possible timelines for vaccinations if things prove good to go.... healthcare first responders early next year and the rest of the general public from March on.

I’ll take it... if everyone is hesitant on taking a vaccine this hellscape is only going to last even longer

Definitely a very distinct sound and feel. We felt a tiny bit down this way from the one in Maine in 2012. This was obviously much closer to us, so felt much stronger

Poo poo the quake all you want... but what is that, a 1/50 1/75 year or more return rate here?

2020 rolls on..:. Puke

Never experienced that before, pretty cool. House was really shaking pretty good

We definitely just had an earthquake here... never experienced anything like it

Wow... house just shook pretty good. I think we had an earthquake
