Trip Booked - Ladyboy Adventure in Brazil

[George Pill]

I would have loved to ski all alone with no one on the slopes. No tourists, no racists, no beginners, and just fine untouched powdered snow. Everybody working but me. When I lived/worked/skied Lake Tahoe back in 1969 I would work evenings as a busboy in Harvey's and Harrah's Casinos. Ski early at 9 AM and return to shower at 4 PM for work. Ate, bused tables, ate, bused tables, and ate and ate really good Western food. Loved prime ribs, steaks, prawns, mashed potatoes, fresh salad, fresh vegetables, banana splits, cakes, pies, and everything your heart desired. Really got lucky I didn't get hired working the ski lifts during the day. Casinos are fun places to go to for late night snacks and French Dip sandwiches then vanilla ice cream before sleeping and dreaming skiing. I would have loved to ski Canada, but I don't think they allow foreigners to work there. Too much red tape. After two months of solid skiing everyday except the Xmas, New Year's, and Spring break when the crowds were impossible I had enough and moved on to the East Coast continuing my one-year trek. Even met the crowds of college students who were fleeing en mass on the Interstate. Didn't figure out what was going on until I arrived at my uncle's place in Maryland. The Kent State shooting had occurred. I miss the riot in DC by one day. Anyway I visited the sites of Washington DC and on to NYC. What fun I had. Glad I did it while I was young. Secret was to buy a station wagon and stuff a good full-sized mattress in the back. No seedy motels. Ate at a lot of steak houses with the money I saved. What a good life I enjoyed in America.

So go ski in Canada without the crowds. Enjoy the peaceful quiet sliding on soft snow all day long. It will probably not happen ever again.

There is not point going skiing if I can't talk to one person or see one smile. The slopes won't be empty, I will just be alone.
Plus i could get arrested for driving by myself in a car, just ridiculous.

I used to be a bartender at a Country Club. I got all I could eat and drink plus unlimited golf.

Flying internationally back to Calgary and doing the test and 2 day quarantine is a trial and ONLY available for Alberta residents. See the GoA link below for a full explanation of the program. When you scroll to the bottom of the page you can read how successful the testing rate has been with determining passengers with Covid. First test is 1.48% of people entering the country are positive. If they don't do the test and 2 day quarantine then they do the 14 quarantine for which stats are not available. The follow up test that all have to do has a lesser Covid rate.

Bottom line, this project is proving to be quite successful but as usual the liberal/socialist scum do whatever they can to screw-up citizens freedom of movement and freedom of choice by invoking the pre-foreign country boarding PCR test.

I live in Alberta, so I could have taken advantage of this, however; my employer requires 14 days absence from work after returning to Canada. So I guess I wouldn't have to quarantine for those entire two weeks, but I'd still have to use my annual leave.

But, like Crag mentioned in another post, all non-essential international travel might be banned. And Crag I totally agree with you...going through all this bs being single is brutal.

Here we go,
Air Canada just rescheduled my flight due to down sizing because of Canada's new testing requirement.

Now there is a Brazil Variant everyone will panic over.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/h...-b1786847.html

I wil be forced to die here alone because I probably will never be allowed to go anywhere ever again.
It is illegal for anyone to visit me and I cannot go anywhere. What is the point of life? Who cares if I get some stupid virus, if I am not allowed to live?
If i die of loneliness they will probably mark it up as Covid to support the cause, whatever it is.

There have been thousands of variants so far, now everyone is in a panic over new variants.
There is more behind this than just a virus, why the sudden panic?
Really suspicious how this whole thing is playing out, it just doesn't seem natural.

With thousands of doctors stating that masks and social distancing do little to protect from a virus the Cretins in charge continue requiring these draconian measures. These measures have been in existence for 9 months and things are getting worse. You would think they would learn from their stupidity. The body's immune system protects from viruses. However, people's immune systems are being compromised by these ignorant lockdowns. And we Americans just put an incoherent demented vegetable in charge who wants to have an additional mandatory 100 day lockdown. As if our economy is not in the dumpster already. God or somebody help us.

Something is kicking up in China again ...they are building emergency hospitals with 1000s of beds in total in a deja vu of 1 year ago. According to this report the Chinese are running into corruption/fraud in there own medical centers causing them to do multiple tests on the same individuals. They are Not calling it a lockdown however they’re preventing people from leaving their homes or traveling on the streets with their cars and the transit systems have been disabled. So call it what you will sounds like a lockdown. Here is the news article that I located from a media source that is not run by Americans

[Rockheart]

China has been lying all along about everything.
They have proven lock downs don't work, it just hides the virus.
It is almost proven now that the virus came from their lab.
They should just nuke all bio labs in China.

Brazil has some problems in Manaus. They appeared to have a 73% projected infection rate but that did not stop a second wave.
They say the second wave is not due to some new mutation.

Of course China has been lying all the time. Only a dimwit would have believed them and the world is full of them! Chinese CDC in Wuhan was only 250m away from the market where the outbreak happened. I posted the news article on that one 6+ months ago.

That socialist piece of shit of a so called premier Horgan says his legal team said he can't ban inter-provincial travel like he wanted to a week ago but has left the door open for 'stronger restrictions on non-essential travel.'

China has found cases with the so called British variant. However, they will keep on saying in domestic news that they were contaminated by travelers coming from a Foreign country.
Of course China has been hiding the truth. I don't believe they did it on purpose but cases were found coming from a food market very close to the P2 lab in Wuhan. In March, there had been press releases bout an incident with bats in the lab. Then China used the panic all over the world to be forgotten. I remain convinced they kept on having Covid casualties since March 2020 but reveal contaminations only when the pandemic gets out of control in a place or another.

[Rockheart]

Viruses don't come from food markets. It came from the lab.
China has had casualties since September 2019. They want old people to die.
It could have been an accident, but i doubt it.

China spread it through armies around the world. The Canadian Armed forced brought the first cases of covid back to Canada in 2019.
Canada covered it up too.

https://www.rebelnews.com/covid_coverup_trudeau_govt_helped_china_hide_origins_of_covid_19

I have obtained secret military documents distributed from the highest ranks of the Canadian Armed Forces in an attempt to cover up a scandal of global proportions. The document, titled “Potential exposure to 2019 Novel Coronavirus during 7th military world games in October 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei Province China,” was written by Canada’s Surgeon General, A.M.T. Downes, Major General.

[flamingofarmer]

Yeah this is no secret it's already been released that the Chinese let the motherfuker escape from a lab...they openly admit it.... now.
But they're also, on the other hand, trying to sell some kind of a shit vaccine that's not really doing the trick. Knowing how these fuckers work they wouldn't surprise me that they were developing a vaccine for this virus but the virus Escaped their grips before they could get the fucking vaccine working properly. It was proposed early on in this outbreak that what if what's the Chinese Communist party was in the midst of using their own people as guinea pigs for a vaccine that got out of hand in other words they tried to keep their population from getting sick while spreading the virus to the rest of the world. That reeks of conspiracy but what the fuck is going on now

Here is a cool time lapse video of Copacabana beach in Rio.
You can see how busy things really are.

Crag, is your flight out of country and back now affected by the news rules from Fidel Trudeau?

https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/now-...ions-1.5287311

My guess is all the smaller airlines in Canada will file for bankruptcy such as Sunwing, Porter, Flair and the smaller subsidiaries of AC and WJ. These airlines cannot take yet another financial hit. Yet in the majority of countries in Europe, USA and Asia airlines are receiving some sort of subsidy or bailout.

Next Fidel will shut down all inter-provincial travel like that socialist piece of shit of a BC Premier, Hogran wants to do.

Fidel Trudeau is 'hell bent for leather' to create Cuba North.

Can't you fly to Seattle and then continue to Brazil...the article that I read suggested that only flights to "sunny" destinations were shut down...
