I get tons of notifications from my computer. I was getting so many notifications I finally turned them off. Now, I only get “urgent” notifications. Apparently the minor detail that my hard drive is full was not considered urgent because… Read More ›
Coronavirus – Covid 19

A major sea change: why COVID-19 is a turning point in history. So, it is the end of March 2020, and many of us are sequestered in our homes, trying not to get the virus that’s now sweeping the globe… Read More ›
HEADING OUT FOR VACCINE PART TWO
I think I’ll probably be off for the rest of the day. Hopefully, back up tomorrow. Maybe this injection will leave me fine. If not, I’ll take a couple of days leave and rest a bit. At least COVID-19 will… Read More ›
PLAGUES AND PANDEMICS
Plagues are not always pandemics. For a plague to become a pandemic, it has to have spread so widely that no location is spared. A pandemic is a plague (or epidemic) that has run out of control. Back in those… Read More ›

ANTI-VAXXERS KEEP YOUR DISTANCE
I wanted to publish this exchange because it’s a good example of why I dislike anti-vaxxers. They have beliefs based on out-of-context data and a lack of scientific and factual testing. Their “opinions” don’t merely endanger them, their family and… Read More ›
GARRY IS VACCINATED AND I’M NEXT!
Today we drove 54 miles each way to Dartmouth High School. It was raining hard for most of the trip. As we approached Providence (Rhode Island)(before re-entering Massachusetts), traffic got very heavy which made no sense at all. I mean… Read More ›
SUDDENLY SERENDIPITY
SERENDIPITY I am serendipity. It’s the name of my blog and it’s my life. I was up at 3 this morning. I couldn’t sleep. Even though I had an alarm set, I was afraid to miss my chance at getting… Read More ›
