Beautiful NYC Weather

A stay at home order was lifted and The Big Apple has officially opened. I LOVE NY whenever the weather warms up and public beaches are also free. Nearby my City Island home is Orchard Beach. I asked my wife to come with me, but she was not in the mood. This is the part when I’m supposed to say that I missed her, but do you want real honesty or fake news? Everything looks to be well on its way to recovering nicely and it also feels just fine. Keep cool, fit and healthy 😎

When someone asks how are you doing, the real question is are they really expressing goodwill and concerned about our well being?

Here is a series of questions you may consider asking if you are an inquiring mind who wants to know.

How are you taking care of yourself today?

What part of your shelter-in-place residence have you come to appreciate the most?

What surprising thing have you been stocking up on (that isn’t toilet paper)?

What’s a story from a book, a movie, an article, a conversation – that you’ve been gripped by recently?

MoM is the most important person in your entire life and don’t you ever forget it, so cherish her always and tell her how you feel.

The connection between mother and child is one of the most complex and intense relationships in the entire universe. 

One minute you're calling your mom for advice, and the next you're texting "MYOB!" to her in all caps.

End Political Transmissions

As the USA could possibly become a new hub of the outbreak, according to the World Health Organization, Americans need to hear from real physicians and medical experts, not spin doctors. The public should not be watching a government response to the COVID-19 pandemic through partisan eyes but with a microscope. USA taxpayers must insist on being the priority, not the major corporations which received a stimulus package and used it to buy back stocks. The average American is the one who pays taxes and they should insist on being the focus of a massive payback.

Wolf Moon

Submitted by ub on

This is not only the first full moon of 2020, it is also a wolf moon shining on Friday.

The name wolf came about because wolves were more often heard during this time, according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac.

Other nicknames include the cold moon, the old moon, and the great spirit moon. At the same time, a penumbral lunar eclipse will be visible in some parts of the world.

You say you want a resolution, we all want to save the world. But let's face it, everyone appreciates friendships, but on social media? I'm pressing the panic button on privacy and taking a break from #Facebook https://www.facebook.com/

They sell my personal information and I've had it with the practice of profiting from my profile without sharing any financial benefits. To make matters worse, they're apparently OK with allowing propaganda and fake information that could affect our Democracy.
