I was trying to edit to where I wanted but this software would not let me undo the screen shot. Not that important.

Their mother is going to my country property for a week or so. All is normal there. No hoarding, stores are open (there are not many!), and no crowds. They will get out the toboggans and go to Snowman’s hill. Or build one in the backyard. Grandchildren love it there. 1
Calm Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) Opera fans...or wanna be fans https://www.vulture.com/2020/03/coronavirus-the-metropolitan-opera-to-stream-free-operas.html?utm_campaign=nym&utm_source=fb&utm_medium=s1&fbclid=IwAR1xi7eYsbvTOsXlgB7kUHKa07E3XjrpbAVjSrzChM6ckxu3-TtiXfI2ilU Quote Have you always thought that you could get really into opera if it were more easily accessible? Well, thanks to the coronavirus, now is your chance. OperaWire has reportedthat the Metropolitan Opera will host “Nightly Met Opera Streams” on its official website in an attempt to continue providing opera to its audience members. “We’d like to provide some grand opera solace to opera lovers in these extraordinarily difficult times,” said Met general manager Peter Gelb in a press release. “Every night, we’ll be offering a different complete operatic gem from our collection of HD presentations from the past 14 years.” The stream will be free and will present encores of The Met’s acclaimed Live in HD series. The performances will begin at 7:30 p.m. EST and will be available to stream for 20 hours. The first week’s schedule, outlined below, will be featuring timeless classics as Carmen, La Bohème, and La Traviata. If your only familiarity with Carmen is the film Carmen: A Hip Hoperastarring a young Beyoncé, and the closest you’ve come to watching La Bohème is watching Rent: Live, this is a great way to expand your horizons.

Calm Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Looks like professional musicians are starting to give free online concerts just as the amateur neighbourhood ones might. I tried to link to one, but overloaded apparently. But might be worthwhile to check out if looking for something besides Netflix and Hulu, etc. 1
Tacenda Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Don't know how true, probably a lucky guess but interesting meme to say the least..
Calm Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) It's not resisting all known treatments. Snopes.com: Quote Although the term “prediction” is a subjective one, it may come as no surprise that Browne claimed to have foreseen an international respiratory disease outbreak, considering that the SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) outbreak of the early 2000s occurred before her book was published. The term “severe” would certainly apply to some cases of COVID-19, the coronavirus disease, which has been deadly for thousands of patients in 2020. The illness appears to be more lethal than the seasonal flu, though some of the cases are quite mild or asymptomatic. Finally, it would be subjective to describe the coronavirus as “baffling.” Coronavirus infections are not new, although COVID-19 is a new strain, and because of that, no vaccines or therapeutic treatments exist yet to fight it. And of course no evidence exists that COVID-19 will “suddenly vanish.” In fact health professionals have stated it might become a seasonal illness. We therefore rate this claim “Mixture.” Although it could be argued that stating a respiratory illness would sweep through the world in 2020 was accurate, other elements of the book passage are unknown or unlikely, and of course “predicting” a worldwide outbreak of a respiratory illness when one has already happened could be more a matter of lucky guessing than predicting.
