Of course. They all went out so they could sober up together.

My favorite part, from Florida's AD:


"I saw somebody said, 'If you threatened college football season, everybody in the South would lock themselves in their house for two weeks to get it over with,'" Stricklin said. "I kind of feel like we're not far from that. I think people are really taking it seriously."

Folks around here are playing by the rules because the Mayor threatened to close the parks and the beltline.  The park was crowded yesterday, but people were maintain small groups (which they generally do anyway in reality).

The wife was worried about getting sweat from some sweaty jogger.

Here in my suburb, the city council closed all city and hoa parks.  I've been running through every park within about 5 miles of my house for the past 2 weeks, every single day, sometimes 2x or 3x per day, and not once have I seen any evidence of "congregating."

This was a solution in search of a problem.  Crap like that isn't going to help, it'll work in the opposite direction, driving people even further stir-crazy than they already are.

In not good news, I read Atlanta hospitals are not maxed out on ICU capacity.  The regular flu should be easing up now, but of course there are still strokes and coronaries, probably many fewer bad traffic accidents.

MARTA is in a bad way because hardly anyone is riding for obvious reasons.

We're handing out all of our reading series materials and consumables if families come by the school.  We're getting a new reading series next school year.  Most won't come get it, but it's A LOT of great grade-level specific materials they could keep.  Sigh.

Oh yeah, I heard that they'd canceled the St Patrick's Day parade in Chicago.

My first thought was "well that ain't gonna stop 'em all from getting piss-drunk together."

And I was right.

I know my city, even if I don't live there any more...
I'm not from Chicago but I was there with my wife a few years ago for the St. Patrick's Day Parade (in town for BTT).  We saw the parade and the river turned green and when I saw this, I thought the same thing.
