I dunno,maybe Teddy,FDR or IKE wouldn't mind tossing back a few on the White House Patio with them
There are Presidents in the past I admire and would love to chat with, but I don't adore any of them the way some today appear to adore recent Presidents.

There are quite a few I wouldn't care even to chat with though.

Teddy was interesting of course.  I'd chat with Ike more about the war than his Presidency.

Some good news here.

That makes sense as it should treat the cytokine explosion situation.

New virus cases here appear to have leveled at about 900 per day, up from about 600 two weeks ago.  If it is a real level, that is tolerable I think.  Hospitalizations are up only slightly.

Traffic has picked back up.  Restaurants are open.  Hotels are reopening now.  My running is improving a lot.  We haven't been nuked yet.

According to a joint Monday statement, MercyOne Siouxland Medical Center and UnityPoint Health – St. Luke’s are providing care for a combined 54 COVID-19 patients. That number is trending downward from late May, when there were routinely 80 to 90 patients in the two city hospitals.

Did you know that a great white shark can swim up to 35 mph and travel 50 miles a day

I did not know that.  But I know this:

  • As of Monday night, 2,113,488 cases of COVID-19 have been reported in the United States (an increase of 19,430 from yesterday) and 116,122 deaths have been attributed to the virus (an increase of 390 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 23,984,592 coronavirus tests conducted in the United States (449,488 conducted since yesterday), 8.8 percent have come back positive.

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. 
Just read a pretty balance book citing sources from both side on Sherman's march (Sherman's March by Burke Davis) to the sea. It was quite interesting and I actually learned a few things I hadn't know.
