The whole "shelter in place" thing is just ****ed up beyond all comprehension to do with ZERO evidence it will have any impact. The media is as much to blame on this thing too IMO, and why you and other health care providers are so overwhelmed. NEVER in my life time have I seen such panic, and it is basically ALL caused by the media. All day, they are bombarding us with the message the Covid19 is "hundreds of times more deadly than the flu", even though there never was any data to support that, and every day as we gather more data, we should be realizing that it is no where close to true! Our health care system, and TP supply chain, are not currently in dire straights because the infection rates are so high, and the morbidity rate so astronomical, but because the media has been desperately trying to convince EVERYONE that the preceding is true such that any time somebody's brother in law sneezed in the next room yesterday they go to the ER demanding a Covid19 test. They are selling panic, and people are buying it, but they are paying for it with the resources provided by folks like you. You should be more pissed than anyone. And another thing: I was talking to a guy yesterday who apparently recently had the regular seasonal flu. He was PISSED that they would not give him the test to see if he had Covid19. I didn't say anything about it, but I thought to myself "if I was sick, why would I care if it was Coved19?" There is no special treatment or "cure" for specifically that, so what difference does it make to me personally which bug got me down? |

I almost lived there. My father was stationed in Germany from 1959 to 1962. One summer we took a trip to Italy to visit relatives in a nice small town up in the mountains east of Rome. My fathers great aunt offered to give us her villa if we would move there. She was elderly with no immediate family and all she wanted was her room. How my life would have changed. |

He won't bite.
I view social distancing to>>> keeping the safety on, or your finger off the trigger till you want to shoot, being on contraception if you don;t want to have a kid wearing a seat belt if you want to lower your chances of dying in a car accident avoiding A~dog unless you want to party in a van, down by the river KIDDING! |

Busy day today, avoiding the tv news top of the list for me.
Watched some Kenny Rogers movies, worked on son's Buick and roll up screens for the barn doors. After the skeetzillas after the last hurricane they're a necessity. Fit in a nap and some drinking along the way. Not a bad Saturday except for the pollen. Well ya'll behave and have a good night. |

Now for something totally different...…. I washed my Vette today. I was about half way done washing it and it started raining. So I washed it in the rain. Even on good days, I know my neighbors think I am nuts. But I don't car. I like driving a clean bad ass Vette.
I will have a clean car to drive to the golf course tomorrow. |
