Went for my second jab at a NHS walk in BUT they are wasting the jabs on teenagers. NHS changes its priorities. What use are teenagers? They know everything and sleep through disasters only awake to eat pizza and play computer games.

Ah well, will have to wait a bit longer for spikevax vaccine (new name for moderna). Working on improving my immune system:

• yoga
• garlic (also makes me less tasty to vampires)
• walking
• meditation

NB: No teenagers were insulted in this email. They get insulted by everything. Hormones.

That is just a conspiracy theory.

I'm already bordering on "elderly and confused", and here you are, making it worse! Hey ho, out with the old, in with the new!

She’s a keeper!!!!
This happened at a New York Airport.
This airline gate agent deserves an award for how she handled a passenger who probably
deserved to fly as cargo.
A crowded flight was canceled.
A single agent was re-booking a long line of inconvenienced travelers.
Suddenly, an angry passenger pushed his way to the desk. He slapped his ticket on the counter and said, "I HAVE to be on this flight and it has to be FIRST CLASS."
The agent replied, "I'm sorry, sir. I'll be happy to try to help you, but I've got to help these folks first who were in front of you; and then I'm sure we'll be able to work something out."
The passenger was unimpressed. He asked loudly, so that the passengers behind him could hear, "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM?"
Without hesitating, the agent smiled and grabbed her public address microphone. "May I have your attention, please?", she began, her voice heard clearly throughout the terminal. "We have a passenger here at Gate 14 WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. If anyone can help him with his identity, please come to Gate 14".
With the folks behind him in line laughing hysterically, the man glared at the airlines agent, gritted his teeth, and said, "F*** You!"
Without flinching, she smiled and said, "I'm sorry sir, you'll have to get in line for that, too."
Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain...
