some precious memories.

My nieces did not have graduations, one is not going to school in the fall, the other got lucky and her college will open - she has to have certified negative test results for COVID-19 before she can attend.

One niece had her 18th birthday - via Zoom. Oh joy.

I cannot hug my nieces, I cannot hug my friends.

We are not going to our favorite resort for our summer getaway. We had hoped to go to Niagara Falls for our anniversary - can't get into Canada.

One of my best friends caught the virus on a ski trip in February. A mild case - he now has no sense of smell.

I am sure it is worse for others.

...but the orange ass is running LOTS of ads with riots and dialing 911, etc.

Are these ads on TV somewhere? Not here on the west coast of Florida.

primarily intended to appeal directly to our T.V. watching President in an attempt to rile him up. That end I believe they have acheived on a fairly small media budget.

That said, I do hope they, a few donors, maybe the DNC or even Biden's team fund a nationwide ad buy to cover the entire country before the election. One can only hope but I do find their ads devastatingly effective in nailing the Stable Genius to the floor!

that are close to turning blue. This OP has the info on it. I imagine that they will hit FL soon.
