    The public outcry and too many police forces saying they weren't going to do it might have done it. BTW did anyone get their buck a beer yet?

    I wouldn't hold my hand over my butt waiting for the buck a beer to happen.

    Today's the day, Moderna shot a 15:15, nervous doesn't describe how I'm feeling adequately.

    I'm doing it for some peace and quiet at home but I'm not entirely comfortable about it. To be entirely honest, I'm not really sure if it's the vaccine that concerns me the most or the needle. I have 8 tattoos but I'm still terrified of injections, weird eh?

    Have fun watching very nervous people standing in the line.

    When I went everyone was very happy and celebrating. I said to a women in line beside me "Have you ever wanted a shot so bad in your life?"

    I was too young to realize it, but I'm told that that's how our parents felt about the Polio vaccine.

    When I was in line, the folks did not seem nervous at all. They seemed relieved to be getting their shots.

    The volunteers and health care workers staffing the vaccination site were incredibly well organized. The line moved very quickly with no backlog. The longest time spent in one place was the time they made us sit and wait to see if we were going to have an allergic reaction.

    Nobody was rushed. Nobody was upset. Everyone who left looked as if a weight had been lifted from their shoulders.

    Yes Weird, unfortunately my wife thinks much the same as you, she has a couple more Tattoos then you, but you say "Shot" to her and she recoils from it

    Doesn't trust the Flu vax or this one...

    I was hoping to get her on board with the J&J but that is pretty much a closed door now..

    I'm not allowed to be in charge in our relationship, so -- vaccination today.

    I was guilt tripped, apparently if I don't get the shot I will probably be responsible if she gets Covid.
