Some good news about John Prine - he's still critical, but is now stable. John Prine still hospitalized with COVID-19 but is now stable, his wife says Not a bass player but one of the greatest songwriters ever IMO.

Raccoons too. I mean, they are so more comfortable light side out, but they hold so much tighter dark side out . . . "This side toward enemy." Yeah, definitely light side out.

I think that's why out big box stores like Costco starting doubling up - we're just too slow loading our stuff back into the cart. No bags though, although they'll give you their old boxes.

Somewhere along the line we've lost that 60s adage: Question everything. Now would be a really good time to get it back. Man, I HATE it when that happens!

Small retail businesses need more employees for B&M than for online sales. Some of those employees could do deliveries.

Yep, used to be a lot more common. We've gotten so good at eradicating, managing, or living with diseases that we've forgotten a lot of that. Now we have to relearn it.

A VERY good point. Well said. Also well said. In the end, it's easier to fix the economy than to bring back the dead. And it's not just the elderly - almost half of New York's hospitalized patients are under 45. Right now most of those will survive - but if we allow the infection to spread...
