Was the woman's dress green or blue? Did you get a Hoverboard? Covid-19? Time to move on to the next thing.

We're in a country that can't even wait for Christmas. Unless you have lost someone, possibly if you know someone who lost a loved one, I don't think most Americans in general can pay attention to any one thing for any length of time.

Participants listening and debating the Corona threat-is it real? is it a threat?-are safely on ZOOM. Wingers are still calling it the whole Pandemic a ruse. Are you kidding me! You were told it was dangerous and warned not to be there in person!
