Yeah...we'll get back to Belize...but first-
The Senate Trial has started...shall we save Larry or kill Larry?
(...obscure Larry the Lobster Reference...)
The House Managers pretty direct laying out the facts of the Impeachment.
(...while the GOP in the Senate doodled, played with Fidget Spinners (I swear I am not making that up) and blocked things like
Documents
Witnesses
Evidence
What the actual FUCK???
Who has a trial without...well...all of those.
(...better still...what does an innocent person need to block any of the above...)
Today, there was so much talk about Hunter Biden from the defense team you might actually think he was the one on trial here.
(...newsflash...even if Hunter Biden stood in the Ukraine and shot Zelensky in the face with a gun...it really is not part of these proceedings and is therefore irrelevant...this is about Trump's impeachment and whether or not he will be removed from the Oval Office...)
Try to stay focused.
and Ken "Let's Try Bill Clinton for Lying about a Blowjob" Starr
had the audacity to say he thought there were "...getting to be far too many impeachments..."
Uh....there has been 3...in 243 years...
I know.
Excessive.
To be fair...the video of him saying this was made much more palatable when someone in the Twitterverse reposted it with a canned laugh-track at the end.
Know what is not a laughing matter?
The Wuhan Virus.
I've been watching this one for the past week or so...
Novel Corona Virus- Wuhan
Found initially in Wuhan China, it is spreading at an alarming rate. Given that we are 24 hours or less (via plane) from any Pandemic now...we need to pay attention to this one.
Now it has spread to 16 different countries...and here in the US we have confirmed cases in California, Washington, Arizona and Illinois.
3 cases in Virginia tested negative.
1 case in New Jersey (still waiting for test results)
1 case in Michigan tested negative
2 cases in New Hampshire (still waiting for test results)
There have now been 82 deaths and 2,700 cases now confirmed in Mainland China.
The most alarming part to me is that on Saturday there were only 59 deaths, less than 2000 confirmed cases and only spread to 12 countries.
The reason this one is a bit different is the ease of which it seem to be spreading.
Right now they conservatively say maybe 2.5 or 3.1
That means every infected person will likely infect 2 or 3 people easily.
No...your flu shot won't stop this one.
This virus is entirely different...and mutating.
And spreading a lot like the common cold.
Way too early to say...but conceivably this could be our next Pandemic.
Update: According to the CDC as of 10 PM today there are now 4,515 confirmed cases in Mainland China and 106 people are dead.
~sigh~
And yesterday...when we thought it couldn't possibly get any worse...we got our hearts broken
When Kobe Byrant (Lakers Legend)...along with his 13 year old daughter and several other people were killed instantly in a helicopter crash en route to her basketball game.
He was 41.
It is inconceivable to me the hell and pain his wife is enduring today...not only losing her beloved husband and father of their other 3 children...but also the loss of her child.
In one horrible moment.
RIP Kobe and Gianna.
and THIS?
A golden lidded toilet from the estate of Frank Sinatra for sale.
(...someone should alert The Donald...)
proving that even in bathroom matters
"...he did it his way..."
Back to Belize Tomorrow...I Promise.
