Hi!
They were wrong when they said there were only two sure things: Death & Taxes (maybe they meant "Texas?")...
The other sure thing is the news keeps coming as the world turns. One day, the sun may not come up, and EVEN THAT would be news!
In today's news, we are about to hear the Biden plan on beating COVID. It's a six-step plan you can read about here. The President will be announcing the plan at 2pm Pacific.

In other news, Tropical Storm Mindy is bearing down on Florida and is expected to land by this evening.
Tropical Storm Mindy formed late Wednesday afternoon in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, forecasters from the National Hurricane Center said.
The storm, with sustained winds of 40 mph, is forecast to make landfall later Wednesday night or early Thursday along the Gulf Coast in the Florida Panhandle.
Tropical storm warnings have been issued for a portion of the Panhandle.
“Mindy is expected to produce storm total rainfall of 2 to 4 inches with maximum amounts of 6 inches across the Florida Panhandle into southern portions of Georgia and South Carolina through Thursday morning,” the Hurricane Center said. This rainfall may produce isolated to scattered flash, urban and small stream flooding.
Although the center of the storm was offshore, tropical downpours were already soaking parts of the Southeast, AccuWeather said. Flooding downpours may hit metro areas in Florida around Tallahassee and Jacksonville, as well as Savannah, Georgia, and Charleston, South Carolina, into Friday.
In addition, a few isolated tornadoes are possible over portions of the Florida Panhandle from Wednesday evening into Thursday morning.
