?shifting recommendations based on new data and new studies, as well as new variants, or "lying". Knowing what I know, I'll go with the former.

Can you quote a STUDY that indicates that coffee really indeed gives you the ability to "be this sharp so early in the morning?" :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

In this particular case, I'm ignoring the scientific method and relying on an anecdotal case study of ONE!!!!:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Very interesting - thanks for the post. Maybe the UK is approaching herd Immunity?

"Based on antibody testing of blood donors, 98.0% of the adult population now have antibodies to COVID-19 from either infection or vaccination compared to 19.0% that have antibodies from infection alone. Over 96% of adults aged 17 or older have antibodies from either infection or vaccination"

From the Disney + special on Fauci

All my friends have larger than lifesize paintings of themselves hanging in their home office. It's a sure sign of a humble public servant. :shocked::shocked::shocked:

Sometimes it is hard to find the right mirror to fit a room. Reminds me a bit of the triple-self Rockwell as that painting shows we can have an unrealistic opinion of our worth/appearance to others.

No big deal but the other day I was watching an interview with Fauci in his study/den(?) and in the background on the book shelf was a couple of candles with his picture on the sides. Hey, who am I do judge? I just have a set of Russian nesting dolls with the likeness of past premiers.

I seem to recall that the Person Who Shall Not Be Named used his charities funds to buy a portrait of himself. Wonder which room it's hanging in now...
If overblown egos are cause for criticism, just look around TV where just about every public building/place is named after one of the Morses.

And the streets are named after their families and friends.

Interesting, since I just looked at the list of 100 recreation centers and only a few are named after Morse family members. Also, didn't notice any of the 50+ golf courses had a Morse name. Street names are a different story

There are also the Sharon Morse Performing Arts Center and the Sharon Morse Medical Center.

And let's not forget the larger-than-life-sized statue of Harold Schwartz standing in the fountain-pool at Spanish Springs Town Square.

Point being, it's not any more or less narcissistic to have a big honkin portrait of yourself somewhere in your house, than it is to have a statue made in your honor or a building named after you. For all anyone knows, Fauci was given this portrait as a gift from some well-known artist, and it's valuable, and thematic (since it's a portrait of him), so he has it displayed prominently in the room.

My grandparents had busts made of themselves by a local artist and they were displayed in the foyer of their home, across from the front doors. They weren't narcissistic either - to them it was them, supporting the arts. They were also donors at the local performance theatre, and had little plaques with their names on a pair of box seats. My parents did the same.
