All the older people I know don't have a worry in the world about COVID 19.  Most of them just accept that if they get it, they get it, and if they die, so be it.  Most of them have already survived more than one health scare or are still dealing with a few.  Some don't expect to live much longer anyways.  I'm talking about people well into their 70's.  My dad, mom, aunts, uncles, etc.  It really doesn't matter to them.  

I'm of the opinion that we're all going to get it eventually, sooner or later.  You can't keep the world on lockdown forever.

We may be seeing a big uptick in Tulsa in about three weeks.  The POTUS is holding a rally here on the 20th.  It was originally going to be on the 19th--Juneteenth--but there was pushback on that, so he changed it.

But apparently they're going to cram about a million people into an arena with 19,000 seats--everyone will sign a waiver of liability--so it should be very interesting to see if anything starts happening a couple of weeks later.

  • As of Sunday night, 2,094,058 cases of COVID-19 have been reported in the United States (an increase of 19,532 from yesterday) and 115,732 deaths have been attributed to the virus (an increase of 296 from yesterday), according to the Johns Hopkins University COVID-19 Dashboard, leading to a mortality rate among confirmed cases of 5.5 percent (the true mortality rate is likely much lower, between 0.4 percent and 1.4 percent, but it’s impossible to determine precisely due to incomplete testing regimens). Of 23,535,104 coronavirus tests conducted in the United States (494,800 conducted since yesterday), 8.9 percent have come back positive.

There have been people camped out since Friday.  Including a lot from out of state.  Including at least one guy from Massachusetts who has rented a motel room so that he can shower while someone watches his place in line.
The virus doesn't know the difference.  But that double standard cuts both ways.

The apparent adoration of ANY politician is a puzzlement to me.  

I do have some admiration for Churchill, despite his various faults.

There is a nice film on W. T. Sherman on Amazon or NF, I don't know which, his life and times.  He was of course the very first president of what became LSU.

He also was a banker on several occasions.

I don't know-- I think there are times when adoration of a president or political figure is appropriate.  I believe that freed slaves probably had some justifiable adoration for Abraham Lincoln.  

But I can't say that I identify any US president or political figure of the past 100+ years as such.
