That song is stuck in my head, especially the line, "Freedom's just another word for 'nothin' left to lose.'"


Delta is just another word for...we're fucked?


I don't mean to be a downer (it's just my nature - a combination of skeptic, pessimist, and realist to the nth degree), but damn, can we ever rid ourselves of the coronavirus?


The answer is no. Too late. Genie is out of the bottle. There is no returning to normal.


NOW is normal. Get used to it.


In other news...

The Olympics are going swimmingly. Ha! Swimming, apparently is in full swing. I haven't been watching but I bet a lot of people have been watching the festivities. There's an impending typhoon headed their way.


Mother Nature is also doing her sweet magic in NorCal - the two giant fires have merged into one, wreaking havoc over thousands and thousands of arid land.


One more...


A sandstorm in Utah:

At least seven people were killed in a 20-vehicle pileup during a sandstorm Sunday afternoon, Utah Highway Patrol said.


The crashes happened on Interstate 15 near the town of Kanosh, according to a news release. Several people were reportedly taken to hospitals in critical condition. Ground and air ambulances were used to transport crash victims.


The pileup occurred during a period of high winds that caused a dust or sandstorm which reduced visibility, the highway patrol said.


Okay, okay. We get it. You're mad that we plundered the planet. We'll stop now.


(Fingers crossed.)

Get the rest of the Sixpack here.


I'm in California right now. I can't promise timely daily delivery. I'll do my best, but I'm on vacation (sorta), and I'm in a foreign land.


My Mojo is a little...off.


Take care & make it a great day!
