Preach it Captain! For all the sons of Adams and the daughters of Eve, risk is always a part of our lives, an inescapable element of this Vale of Tears.

Net Neutrality requires the following rebuttal, from Karen:
You’re all going to DIE!
Dear God, How I love being 2 miles off shore fishing from in a ocean kayak, now only if the beaches would open up – I could launch!
Brilliant Ernst:
Because we’re ‘ere lad. Nobody else. Just us.
I couldn’t find either Thomas Mitchell’s Doc Boone from Stagecoach or the Shakespeare quoting Doctor from Only Angels Have Wings.
Jack Hawkins, however, is everywhere.
“Because we’re ‘ere lad. Nobody else. Just us.”
Hey! One of my most favorite lines from ANY movie!
My favorite from Zulu: when Surgeon Major Reynolds says, “Well, he’s a dead paper hanger now.”
Three other priceless movie lines:
One, from “My Cousin Vinny.” It applies to every thing you have heard and will hear about the China Murder Virus, The Russia Hoax, climate change, gun violence, and every other left-wing orthodoxy. “Everything that guy just said is bu!!$hi+.”
Two and Three, from the [expletive deleted] horrid movie, “Platoon.” Sgt. Barnes, “What do you people know about death?” And, “I [four-letter expletive for defecation] on all of you.”
Bonus: Little known historical fact. Custer’s last words, “Where the heck did all those Indians come from?”
With all the chipping and painting I did on Navy ships at sea, I can tell you preservation and being haze gray and underway (that’s being at sea for those who no habla sailorese) are not mutually exclusive.
Local news at ten just did a segment on a family owned business (Hallmark Cards and Gifts) that’s closing because of coronavirus. Won’t be the last business that closes for good. And this in a state where shelter in place was more of a strongly worded suggestion than a decree from on high.
This was a 65 year old business –operated by the current owners for 15 years.
The overall cowardly public reaction to the Fauci-fake panic-demic is a perfect a perfect example of our moral and cultural decadence illustrating our distance from God. For reacting this way we will pay dearly.
My guess is that it will be found the deaths and damage caused by the ‘lockdown’ will far exceed the actual deaths from coronavirus itself. Question: Will we learn from this experience? And, if so, what?
