Ya wonder if it was an inside job or a mob hit.He certainly opposed some powerful people
I think it was Lee Oswald, but the reason so much conspiracy exists around it is because most people believe that someone so insignificant as LHO can set their place in history by extinguishing someone as significant as JFK.  

Remember, some nutt almost extinguished Reagan not even 20 years later.  A little more to the left or right and we would all remember the dudes name.  Now I can't even remember the dudes name except that he had the hots for Jodie Foster ( who has now come out as gay) and he wanted to impress her by killing Reagan.

There is pretty compelling evidence it was Oswald.  And knowing a bit about LHO it's hard to think he would have been part of any conspiracy unless he was a total patsy.  He had been trained to shoot of course.  He apparently missed his first shot, which was easiest.

There is a pretty neat fictional book written by a favorite author of mine about how it was "really" done, but the author goes to pains to mention it's fictional.

The states hit the hardest at first are doing relatively better, and vice versa.

Yup, pretty much.  And when those early-problem states start opening up, they'll see increases again.  This virus isn't going away.

Focus #1 is making sure the hospitals don't get overrun.

You probably know that they discovered what happened to the "third" (actually the first) bullet.
When Dallas was repainting street light fixtures 30-40 years later, they found a bullet scar on the top of one that was right in line between Oswald's perch and JFK's limo at the time of the first gunfire sound.  And downrange they found an impact scar in the concrete curb where the bullet would have hit.
I don't think that the Warren Commission did history's finest murder investigation, but I think it is very clear that Oswald was the lone gunman and that he was not part of any conspiracy.

Yep.  Conspiracy theories are always more fun.  That's why there are so many of them!

Ugh, the copper thing is ludicrous.

GA had two days of somewhat lower reported new cases.  Hospitalization is slightly up still, not very much.  Restrictions are still being loosened.  I have a dentist's appt this morning, routine cleaning.  The wife went last week for hers, same office.

Mask wearing at Kroger etc. is way down now, I think folks never understood the point of a mask.  Protest news is quiet, I'd guess there are protests downtown each day in the park.  The paper is not mentioning them.  We saw one very orderly protest march of about 250 people, most of whom were white, which I take as a good sign.

It was 57°F this morning, but the weekend promises to give us our first 90°F day, which is almost a month later than typical.

Our HOA had a zoom kind of meeting last night, I didn't partake.  The board seems to be reasonable folks.

Following weekly trends, we had the usual spike in daily deaths on Tuesday following the low weekend, but the number was lower than previous Tuesdays, so our 7-day moving average nationally continues to trend down.

To story in the news is going to be the big spike in cases yesterday, but unless we start to see hospitalizations and deaths trending back up, the cases number is probably not as important as people will make it out to be. 

And even the uptick in cases only brought our 7-day moving average to where it was 10-14 days ago, with only a SLIGHT trough in between, so I wouldn't call it an alarming change unless the rest of the week shows a significant upward trend.

Texas numbers are very concerning. Over 4,000 yesterday.

As noted, the key might well be hospitalizations rather than just case counts.  The idea was to prevent hospitals from being over whelmed.

Here's Orange County. Orange is hospitalizations, blue is ICU beds.



And as we continue to open, more and more, I expect it to only increase.
