I am conflicted, too, GV, we are in the kingdom of Tonga, and will soon cross the international date line, again, so it will be Wednesday when it is Tuesday there. Should I read the Wed. Paper and tell you the Mets',score before Tues night? Is it ethical? Have I been drinking to much fermented coconut juice? Go Mets and Go GV

Ed, I am sure you have had too much fermented coconut juice, but I would suggest you follow the games via the Internet at a Starbucks. 11/20/2015 07:20:12 am
HA ha. I'm sorry I'm not so much in baseball, but the first comment just made me laugh. Stop drinking fermented coconut juice!)) And come on, it's the era of internet. Comments are closed.

“I don’t think people understand how Covid affects older Americans,” Mr. Caretti said with frustration. “In 2020, there was this all-in-this-together vibe, and it’s been annihilated. People just need to care about other people, man. That’s my soapbox.” ---Vic Caretti, 47, whose father recently died of Covid at 85. ---From an article by Paula Span, who covers old age for the NYT, which currently has 2646 comments, the majority criticizing the American public – and public officials – for acting as if the pandemic is “over.” Classic wishful thinking, at a lethal level.
