I would never have guessed that Joe Diffie would be the first celebrity COVID death (well, if a tier B 1990’s country singer counts as a celebrity but I liked quite a few of his songs back in the day so why not?) And if this helps even one Red Stater stay home, his death […]
At a time when people should be minimizing any activities that may result in a preventable trip to the hospital, Shea and I have mixed feelings about seeing Pace get his skateboard out now that spring seems to be here. Honestly, he’s pretty skilled and safe (notwithstanding how it looks due to the timely snap […]
These are ordered roughly in the order that I find them useful but I’d encourage anyone reading this to open them all and find which ones you prefer for yourself. Also, feel free to post a comment if there are sites I haven’t listed that you prefer. COVID-19 Canada Tracker – designed by a […]

I’ve been thinking a lot about the differences between a panicked response, a prepared response and a proactive response and […]
With apologies to Daniel Dafoe, some scenes from the past few days… Busy disinfecting everything in the house… I *love* my library’s “In the News” display. It’s been a huge hit with how timely and responsive it is and our COVID-themed display was no exception (yes, I know some of those “boost your immunity” books […]
