U.S. Senate members received briefings of the corona virus months before the rest of us and are alleged to have gone out and sold off their stocks before the stock market crashed.  The investigation in on-going, but I don't expect anything to come of this.  Rich guys investigating rich guys.  Need I say more.  

Las Vegas has thousands of empty hotel rooms and yet the city has taken to striping off a parking lot for the homeless to sleep in while practicing social distancing.  Really???

Got out on my bike yesterday for the first time in ages.  Got eleven miles in, in and around the neighborhood.  Didn't see here out there.  LOL

Lucky Devil Lounge, a strip club in Portland, Oregon, was closed, so the owner is making food to be delivered by several of its strippers.  Above are Kiki LeMiau and Brodie Grodie out making a delivery.  I don't know what they offer for a larger tip.  LOL

Day 12 of the quarantine and we're still doing well.  Getting a lot of yard work done.  No trips to the beach for awhile, but it looks like the weather is going to warm up next week and I'll be able to get back on my bike.  Karen went out for a run this morning.

Happy birthday to Pauley Perrette who turns 51 today. 

tRUMP is now pushing for the country to come out of house arrest as soon as possible to "save the economy."  It's a bald face attempt to appease his rich donors who are losing money and jealous of Costco and others who are making a killing on the virus buying.  His hope is to have the economy going again by Easter Sunday, two weeks from today.  It's a glorious holiday and we should fill the churches to the brim.  What a bunch of crap.  The "experts" are saying the virus will tell us when we can stop social distancing and staying at home. 

tRUMP cop-out: "The Lame Stream Media is the dominant force in trying to get me to keep our Country closed as long as possible in the hope that it will be detrimental to my election success.”

A b-Movie

I’m living a b-movie,

And you are in it too.

The plot: it seems so simple,

Its really nothing new.

A virus sweeps the nation,

And brings it to its knees.

Doctors fight for every life,

From sea to shining sea.

Doctors say to stay at home,

To hunker down in place.

Social spacing now the rule,

No meeting face to face.

Panic buying swamps the stores,

Shelves emptying in a flash.

Special hours for the old,

And please don’t pay in cash. 

Virus cases on the rise,

Doubling about every three days.

Dead and dying in the halls,

More infected on the way. 

So, in my house I’m huddled,

Wi-Fi don’t fail me now.

My role; to keep from dying,

And eventually take a bow.

Will there be a happy ending?

Will the human race prevail?

We’ll have to await the final act,

To uncover the epic tale.

The corona virus is starting to overwhelm the hospital's ability to help those who are sick.  Word came out early that the virus is harder on the elderly with preexisting conditions.  So several Republicans have come out and said that the elderly should be willing to sacrifice their lives to ensure the the economy thrives.  These are the same folks who are pro-life and anti-abortion.  Blah blah blah.
