Hi Daryl!
BM> Hopefully fireworks and not gunfire.
DS> What was your first clue?? They're shooting them off again
DS> here. Most of society now is selfish, and inconsiderate for the
DS> welfare of others.
I don't know most: "the squeaky wheel gets the grease" and so a few get
all the news. Those few can create a lot of damage and distress for the others.
As for the fireworks, unless pretty much next door can't for-
certain identify their location for the police to handle (at minimum a
noise complaint); I nd;t know what I'd do in your situation.
DS> But, some who reopened early have had to close back down. :(
BM> Unfortunately yes. I don't think there have been any incidents like
BM> that around here. One downtown bar closed voluntarily because the
BM> owner didn't want to be the potential cause of an outbreak. (I'm not
BM> sure if still closed.) We've had a few places closed temporarily
BM> because of a COVID-19 case appearing.
DS> Area Chick-Fil-A's don't have dining room seating, although you
DS> can walk in, and place a "to go" order, or go through the drive
DS> thru. Also, because of COVID-19, only ONE person is allowed in
DS> the restroom at a time. All I can think of is the video in the
DS> zoo, where the orangutang (sp?) is swinging and banging on the
DS> door, and making horrid noises. The caption is "When you have to
DS> go potty, and the person inside is taking their time". :P
<chuckle> Sub-captions could be "don't wait until the last minute" and
"plan ahead".
BM> Yes, cooled off last night; highs for today and the weekend in the
BM> upper 70's; start of next week in the low 70's. Just might be opening
BM> the windows -- as long as the humidity is low.
DS> The heat returns by late week, although isolated thunderstorms
DS> are still possible.
The morning nes reported 53° out there this morning! That was at the
Quad City International Airport about 10 miles south of the house; the Davenport
Municipal Airport was reporting 57° -- which was almost the
'hot spot' on the regional map. Supposed to warm up to the low- and
mid-80's next week.
BM> ... You were expecting still another smartaleck message here today?
DS> I tried that approach with my late wife, when I told her that
DS> "my head is so far up my butt, that I can see my throat". Without
DS> missing a beat, she quipped "That's why your eyes are brown". <G>
And the next lines are "wipe you tears". "Those are tears."
