Well, I'm on Day 10 now of COVID. My wife tested positive two days after me, and she is now clear and negative. However, I am still testing positive, and my symptoms today have actually gotten a bit worse from the past few days. New head and nasal congestion, and a little chest stuff that's new. I've got a virtual doctor's appointment tomorrow to try and figure out what to do now. I did the full 5 day Paxlovid regimen for days 1-5, so that's off the table I think. Very discouraged. tartanphantom it's going to be a little while longer on those comics I'm supposed to mail you. Feel better, my friend. Hopefully the COVID doesn't impact the lung issues you had earlier with the mold. Sending you good vibes. -M

That's what I was thinking as well. Hope it all turns around soon and you get better.

Jeez, Crimebuster, I'm sorry. My younger son just went through his second bout and it was worse than his first, also at this time last year, but it just took time and rest. here's hoping that that combo and a few Nam-era romance comics do the job for you.

Any comics deals are secondary to your health and can wait indefinitely. Sorry to hear that you're still under the weather, Scott.
Take care of yourself FIRST, everything else is of a lower priority. Best wishes for a speedy recovery, my friend.

Trying to wrap my head around the fact that X-Files is 30 years old. Something I started watching as a kid from Day 1. Any episode with The Smoking Man is a winner, he's my 2nd favourite tv villain of all time (J.R. Ewing is #1).

My mind was frazzled when I learned that I was the same age as Star Trek and the Batman tv series. They had always seemed to have been around long before I was. Turns out, they beat me by a few months.

Had a huge crush on Gillian Anderson ... wait, I still do.

Just bought a brand new 2023 Hyundai Elantra SEL, after cashing in some inheritance money. My previous car was a 2009 Elantra SE, manual transmission and had 150,000 miles on it and brake and probable suspension issues. I decided to invest now in something that should cover me into my senior years, with care. It's my first automatic transmission, since I have driven stick, since high school (1969 Plymouth Valiant 3-speed). I was lucky in that I was able to go in and test drive and buy an in-stock car, as they have had waits as long as 4-6 months, around these parts. So I walked into a stealthy black little number, with so many gadgets, I expect to hear the James Bond theme, when I start the car.
I'm still reading the manual to see which one fires the "thumpin"-seeking missiles and which drops the "get off my tail" caltrops.
Servicing by Q Branch.

I promise I’m not thinking politics or making any sort of political point, I merely think this is a really interesting fact: Source: www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/01/11/national/best-passports-surveyJust out of interest, because it’s best never to presume, for those outside the UK, does your country require your passport application to be counter-signed by a professional such as a doctor, magistrate, etc? My doctor charges £25 to counter-sign a passport application!

My doctor charges £25 to counter-sign a passport application! Speaking as someone who has applied for (numerous times) and holds both a US and Croatian passport: no. And that's the first time I've ever heard of such a requirement.
