    As long as you don't develop a secondary infection, that approach will work - might even strengthen your immunity.

    I got the flu shot afterward, to be honest I got it the previous 2 years, and simply neglected to get jabbed in 2022 Did you see a Doctor? I needed meds to get rid of mine.

    I had Covid back in 2021 (double jabbed at the time) - it was quite manageable I got hit like a truck by the flu before Christmas. Turned into a bad case of bronchitis, lost 90% of my voice

    Yes. Just like the article has a variety of takes.

    Yes. I found the same deal on a scotch last week. Waiting for one of my favourites to get marked down - would purchase several.

    Talk to your family doctor. I also have the first 3 shots. I took a flu shot this fall, but not another covid jab.

    Nothing wrong with some selections...on the lower shelves...
  9. Well yes. But the opposing teams are also looking forward to the all-star break.

    Yes and no. Jim Beam too - to help us all come clean.
  11. Scotch, Glen Any of the Glens.
  12. Camping? Get yourself a fire pit and a grill.
  13. I like nuts as a snack, but not at the sexual level.

    Yes. I don't buy it often and mostly not in MB, but sometimes a half decent deal comes along.
  15. Moved most of the food posts over to the grilling thread...just we so we can leave Mosaic languishing in obscurity.
  16. Just sign one decent linebacker!

    If you're into high end single malt scotch - some are $20 - $30 off.
  18. The only question for her and PP - how big is that base? Hopefully small. Their speeches remind me of the sheep in Animal Farm: "4 legs good, 2 legs bad."

    In other news, LC has some sweet sales these days. None of their usual loonie and twonie garbage - $10 off on 40 oz. bottles of some whiskey, and 1.5 L of wine, $5 off.

    Saskatchewan right beside us has had supply teachers for years - MB needs to get on board.
  21. Mark H. replied to Wideleft's post in a topic in General Discussion
    This has been the norm in rural divisions for years - it's just getting media coverage now, because it's creeping closer to metro. Divisions like Borderland, Southwest Horizon, Parkwest - were already doing it. It's mainly due to retired teachers no longer wanting to sub. (But your rant is still legit)

    And they can scrap the grade 10 idea too.

    Uh huh. Because they are the only government that does this. GST rebates have been around for decades.
  24. Mark H. replied to Wideleft's post in a topic in General Discussion
    Some can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the thinking behind tax rebates is that the government earns interest on the money before they give it back to us With billions of dollars being rebated at the provincial and federal levels all across the country - that's a pretty good chunk of interest money flowing into the coffers And no, I'm not arguing that it's good policy.
