Fully vaccinated so... now what? I lucked into the Moderna vaccine, received the prerequisite two inoculations, so now with a drum roll and thunderous applause, tah dah!!! I'm vaccinated hurray. Hardly took much time for the waiting drill and I'm still waiting for Salt Lake County Health Department to kindly let me know that the Health Department has vaccine and I can get them shots. You see, persons of my age and generation were required to sign up and phone in to get an appointment, if any appointments were in fact available, and then wait for the Health Department people to be specifically gracious enough to grant you a Covid-19 vaccine. The Salt Lake County Health Department was NOT gracious enough to let me know they had the vaccine available. I was able to get vaccinated on account of my wife's place of employ had extra doses of vaccine available and rather than throw the extra doses away as required by the CDC and FDA, my wife's place of employ got in touch with people that had indicated a willingness to be vaccinated. When the wife's place of employ asked if I would like the vaccine I stated categorically, well hell YES! So I backed into the vaccination and I'm pretty dang grateful for my wife's work and being vaccinated. Salt Lake County Health Department is a rolling clusterfuck regarding Covid-19 vaccine and vaccinations. So would be the Utah State Department of Health that was charged with running the entire vaccine rollout. Problem is, or was, the State and County had their collective administrative heads up their political asses and it's still like pulling hens teeth to get a vaccination for Utah folk that aren't well connected politically. By the notion of 'well connected' in Utah, that means did you give any money to some duplicitous political hack so as to enable yourself to receive Covid-19 vaccinations. Pay to play is how things work in Utah. Well that and being mormon. In this case being mormon did not enable one to get vaccinated with 'some' exceptions. There's always some godawful exception or another godawful exception when dealing with Utah politics. Such is life behind the Zion Curtain. Some ask, well why don't you move to somewhere else? Did that and as things turn out, somewhere else is not all the theory turns out to be. Nevada sucks. New Mexico really sucks. Washington State sucks as does Arizona. Living in Arizona is not only freaking damn hot, the neighbors and such are straight up fucking insane. I mean as in locked, loaded, stocked with more dang firearms and ammunition you can shake a stick at, and an Arizona willingness to use those aforementioned firearms and ammunition. In Arizona, you are more likely to be shot and killed than to actually die of heat stroke. Well except for migrants trying to cross Arizona desert country that for the most part stretches across the entire southern Arizona/Mexico border. Arizona authorities find dead migrants just about any day of any week during anytime of any year. So with all things considered, living behind the Zion Curtain is not so bad and if you simply ignore the mormons, well, life goes on. So now let us move on to machine art which is really a thing and for the well connected machine artist, that well connected machine artist can rake in some serious bucks. Millions of serious bucks. Who knew?
