2. There is a frustrated opera singer in my building. He sings intermittently. He's not very good, just slightly better than the cats, which is saying something. I don't know if he's Bengali or Russian. It's hard to tell. He could be a ghost, I've yelled at him a couple of times and it stopped. Which is odd.

4. Everyone is upset that the Doofus didn't get tested or take precautions around infected diplomats or follow the guidelines of the CDC. I, on the other hand, am kind of happy about this turn of events -- with any luck he'll contract the illness, as will Pence, and we'll end up with Nancy Pelosi finishing out his term.

5. Sigh. Grocery shopping the last two weeks has become increasingly traumatizing. ( Read more... )
6. Yet, no one appears to actually be sick. ( Read more... )

There's 2-4% death rate in most cases. In fact, many people may have it and not know it.
Not to pay attention to the numbers which are misleading.( Read more... )
9. Was debating going to church this weekend, but received email - and apparently my church (the Unitarian Universalist Congregational Society of Brooklyn or First U) decided to close the church to all activities and worship. It's going online kind of like the colleges. ( Read more... )
10. Bright side? I have an excuse to stay home and vegetate. ( Read more... )
