Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer?

@oregonpapa , I'm frankly learning to like y'all being confined..

The air's cleaner, it's quieter overall....  One walks into that which is still open and if your timing is 'on', you get instant attention to your quest for whatever. 

"Rush hour" has become 'rush minutes'; I haven't had the pleasure of so little highway traffic in so long it's still a novelty.

When we first moved into this area, people would kid us about 'mountain time'; i.e., the pace was 'leisurely'.....not the frantic 'take no prisoners' of Houston, the Bay Area, or the L.A. 'basin' (how apt) I grew up in....

It sped up in the 10+ years we've been here....but now, it's even better than before.

If I need to 'accelerate' to visit Home Despot or Low's to 'do biz', it's easy to fall back 'into groove' and whambamthankuSam....but once out the door....

It's like hitting a Wall of Bliss.....*S*

Business for us is still coming in the door, for now....we've work lined up into 1st quarter '21.   We've even had a couple of 'walk-ins', a rarity for us...*G*

So....for the hoards demonstrating that they feel they're being 'held captive' and their right to assemble is keeping them from becoming ill...

Have @ it....I'll keep a safe distance.

Mass graves are disturbing, but I'd rather stay out of one.

Stay sane and Healthy....best I can wish for you...

Papa, good to hear from you and your unshakable " Communist China Virus " cry. This is one point I agree with. But we should’ve been prepared much better and acted much more quicker and decisively than we did and still do. The virus is going to be slowly suppressed but not eliminated any time soon. You don’t do elimination like that. Look at New Zealand and yes, China. I got tired of this sort of prison too but we got to continue or it will be a disaster. No amount of music can compensate for this unnatural lack of space, both physical and mental. It is getting harder. We just have to hang on. I expect serious improvements soon enough unless they screw it up, but do worry about possible second wave in fall/winter. It might happen, no-one knows for sure.

On the bright side,  if we are suddenly invaded by otherwise invincible Martians, they wouldn’t even last two minutes these days.

 The more astute and literate observation about this plague.... Thanks....

Here's a question:  If Montana had the number of victims of the Communist Chinese Virus as New York City, and if New York City had the number of victims of the Communist Chinese Virus as Montana ... do you think the governor and mayor of New York City would have locked down the entire state?
