County Fair Covidiots

Medina County Fair had postponed their fair June 3rd.  On June 11th the fair board must have decided the rise in infection rate in Ohio wasn't enough.  They amped up the pandemic and decided to let even more people die.

Geauga County Fair Board decided to blame the Governor in reverse.  Since Governor Dewine hadn't given guidance to shield the fair board of the need to make adult decisions, they were moving forward.  What a vacuum of leadership in Geauga County is displayed by this action.

One Less Bell To Answer

122,000 people have died in the US.  The president holds a rally in Tulsa.  He doesn't wear a mask.  He says, "Here's the bad part ... when you do testing to that extent, you're going to find more people; you're going to find more cases. So I said to my people, slow the testing down please."

I wonder how many will be dead by the election...

Sign of the Times

I noticed this sign in the back and side windows of an old Crown Vic.  Home made sanitizer seems so long ago in the changing COVID landscape.  They better make those sales soon as most stores are stocking commercial grade products again while demand drops as people realize hand sanitizer is not the best solution to stopping a respiratory infection.  We have never been intense users of hand sanitizer products.  Soap and water, if available, are much better tools for removing risks.  It was an Altoona, Pennsylvania phone number a long way from home.

COVID Playlist: Don't Fear the Reaper

From watching the Ohioans the last couple weeks, all fear of the reaper (and concern for each other is gone). Stay safe out there.

We will double dip this week with a second timely title from the same album. With out-of-control law enforcement showing no respect for fellow humans, this song is so appropriate.



From the ads for the album when this was released... "Who's the greatest band alive? BLUE OYSTER CULT!" They were an amazing, under-rated band.

COVID Playlist: Alone Again Naturally

I hope you are all wearing masks in public when others are around (not just indoors) and practicing social distancing. 114,000 people have died in the US.  😭  The country's president no longer considers this an issue even though about 1,000 people continue to die each day.

By Labor Day over 200,000 people could be dead at the current pace.  Over 1/4 million people could be dead by election day November 3.  That number would be four to ten times the number of deaths from flu this season.  I guess all those people saying this is just like the flu were wrong.

Stay safe!  Be diligent about social distancing and keep wearing a mask in case you are infected.
