For all you G & S fans out there--borrowed from another fan of light opera!
I am the very model of effective social distancing!
I listen to the experts on the topic of resistance-ing;
I know that brunch and yoga class aren’t nearly as imperative
As doing what I can to change the nation’s viral narrative.
I’m very well acquainted, too, with living solitarily
And confident that everyone can do it temporarily:
Go take a walk, or ride a bike, or dig into an unread book;
Avoid the bars and restaurants and carry out, or learn to cook.
There’s lots of stuff to watch online while keeping safe from sinus ills
(In this case, it’s far better to enjoy your Netflix MINUS chills)!
Adopt a pet, compose a ballad, write some earnest doggerel,
And help demolish this before our next event inaugural.
Pandemics are alarming, but they aren’t insurmountable
If everybody pitches in to hold ourselves accountable.
In short, please do your part to practice prudent co-existence-ing,
And be the very model of effective social distancing!

Hey, dv8! Eliza Rubenstein is my former choir director. Very talented, but very, very leftist. I’m curious to know how you came across that?
And yes, I did sing along to that!
From a facebook page while I was wishing my friend Happy Birthday. A friend of his had posted it, but changed a line or two to make it politically neutral in these troubled times.
Happy Quarantine Monday, Week 2 Edition, Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, dv8, Fatwa, and Sven!
dv8 -- yes, I read your lovely wife’s question on the M.O. I’ll put a FB link to the service there. The entire service is about an hour, but you can easily skip the parts you don’t want to watch.
Hmmm. An emergency announcement from Ventura County Sheriffs department that tells me absolutely nothing but to keep doing what we’ve been doing. Good job.
All at the same time, the emergency broadcast message hits the teevee screen, my cell phone goes off, Mrs Sven’s goes off. And none of the messages really say anything but to go THERE for more information and when I do, the only thing up there is a link, dated today, that goes to an announcement, dated 4 days ago.
I cringe most of the time when Trump is talking and wish he’d just not make every damn thing about himself, but then he goes and says “Chinese virus” and I can’t help but smile.
Paddy: Harper left a long question on the midnight oil late last night regarding Mrs. Paddy’s sermon, just in case you didn’t see it.
I left a link in the M.O.
Thx, I let Harper know.
Morning Wheelizens!
Once again I’m up very early. Gonna make pancakes.
Or waffles….
Creeper, Ah man….
No!!! not Tim Pool! Stay away from him you creeper!
Seriously though Tim’s coverage has been pretty good.
One of the creepier Biden sniff pictures ever. I approve.
Pandemic Monday Greetings, GN!
Hey, dv8!
Oh man…it’s way too early for Creepy Uncle Choo-Choo; gaaaaaah!
Overslept this morning; screwed-up the alarm somehow. Good thing CorporateToolK was self-rising and is working remotely again this week.
BBIAB after caffeine; buh.

“Ah…that’s some mighty fine wordsmithing there, dv8!”
Cheers for sharing that. 😉

Small world!

Teh yay! Hope he remains safe.
Check out teh bottom image. 👿
Happy Monday, GN! Back to virtual salt mine.
Happy Quarantine Monday, Week 2 Edition, Gerbil Nation!

I wonder since I’m ordered to work remotely, if I injure myself while working remotely at home, if that’s a work-related injury?
Under CA law, I wouldn’t be surprised if the answer is “yes”.
Probably not the case here in GA. Which is sad for a certain ginger employed by what has rapidly become The Second Bestest Place Evar”.
=============
It appears Chuckie Shitsmear and Nancy Palsi had an 1,100+ page bill ready to go filled with all of the Dems happy horseshit.
I have no problem with calling them anti-American traitors who should be dancing the Danny Deever from the nearest lampposts.
Not if it’s a fapping injury. I’ve tried that. No, go.
Bat soup…nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom…
They eat some weird stuff there. Even weirder stuff in Vietnam. Spiders on a stick.
Good night for now, wheelies.
Good night, dv8!
Hmmm. An emergency announcement from Ventura County Sheriffs department that tells me absolutely nothing but to keep doing what we’ve been doing. Good job.
Well then…keep on keepin’ on.
Emergency Notice! Emergency Notice!
Carry on as before.
Thank you.
“Had this been an actual emergency…”
