As I've written the up side to this Plague is that it will at last kill off the 20th century. That, and hopefully the surviving leadership of that deadly age.
After this Pandemic the 21st century will finally begin.
As for myself I've seen death, and nearly died any number of times...just two years ago my last encounter with the Angel of Death.
I've watched friends, and loved one's die over the years all around me.
I lost four more since last summer...comes with age.
I have no problem with going.
I even like the idea of passing with millions in a classical plague.
This was once a common exit for people before the invention of industrial warfare.
It's going with a few shreds of dignity that matters.
While lying in hospital I'd hear folks all around me praying, actually weeping to invisible men their deities to save them,...they were still afraid of death.
At their age I was surprised.
Religion did that to them.
It took they're dignity from them when they needed it most.
So no other than rational precautions I'm not watching the rash of how-to desperate videos on how to claw onto the last moment of life.
I've had a life thanks.
Any extra is gravy.
The downside is I can't go to the movies,...been a while.
I miss the hot dogs, and popcorn.
It's really not the film.
Most are such shit. It's the ritual. The going the hanging out the sacraments of soda pop hot dogs, and popcorn. That, and the yelled out wisecracks from the audience during really bad films. That's what going to the movies is for.
I miss it, and may never see it again.
That's my only regret.

That is what the chief Dr in one of the biggest hospitals in NYC is giving, rational precautions.

You most likely have HAD Covin19 a few months ago.
Why do you assume guys your age and with preexisting conditions will automatically die? Maybe you just got sick for 3 days and recovered. You have posted recently of having some bad 3 to 5 days.
There are about 30% of the serious COVIN19 deaths who are aged 35 to 50, in Spain, I think.So you don't rely know all guys in your physical condition will die if they get it.
If you know the (we are assuming) very accurate (video 6 to 18 minutes) precautions then you CAN TELL OTHERS. Just watch his advice,
THEN, you can prevent your friends from the virus.
Sidney, don't you want to see this evil guy in the WH get dragged out?
This practical advice could keep you from getting re-infected, if that's a possibility, THIS IS ALL NEW, so don't assume you are already dead.
Part of his advice.....
It's by touch.
Most will get better in 5 days, but just 2 DAYS BEFORE you feel sick, you give it to others.

This is why you stay home.
That's the theatre where I saw the sumptuous Jeremy Sumpter as Peter Pan in '04; and, long before that, the original release of Swiss Family Robinson.
ReplyDeleteMost of the movies houses of my youth are long gone. Housing or businesses replaced them in the 1980's. Once before TV. Each 'Hood had several movies houses. In the late 1960's to 70's these went the way of the horse buggy...TV was the family entertainment. Much as online platforms are now.
ReplyDeleteI haven't regularly watch TV in several years.
This is why my first flat screen given as a gift from my sister in 2008 is still fine bright, and blasting away the four or five times a year I use it. My living room TV got in 2012 the same.
One see's so many flat screen dead in the trash.
I mean their owners must still use them daily.
Far far more of these on the streets than one saw dead Crt-TV's from the 50's, and 60's. Partly it's cheaper to toss them,...for some, when they fuck up than repair them.
Back in the day a black, and white 21 inch screen TV could be $150,....a week's wage. You bet our dad's called the repair guy.
AS for all the COVID info,...yeah it's possible I already had it. that long awful winter flu could well have been it. If I get tested for the anti-bodies, and these are there I would not be surprised.
ReplyDeleteAs for my thoughts on death...I always think of it because I've nearly died several times in the last few years. it hold no terror for me whatever....I've got used to it being around...like soldiers I guess.
It's just the idea of witnessing Two Millions pf folks dying around me has me a bit concerned is all.
Thanks for your info, and concern...it doesn't matter what any of the stuff you sent sez,...it's all static in the face of mass death.
Otherwise I hope you stay safe, and healthy.
All of you,...all 6 of my readers here.
ReplyDeletethe 6 of us? awwww too bad it ain't the 12, then we be the dirty dozen.
Speaking of MOVIE HOUSES..... Very soon like in a day or 2 maybe, the SOUTH BY Southwest film festival is GOING TO BE FREE on Amazon. You do NOT need a Prime account, just a PC or Tablet, Android or iOS to see ALL THEM new movies and international indi films.
woow this is big, SEE THE LIST, link is in side the article from AndroidPolice.com in my name Kyo or here below.

The movies are not the current semi shit that are in the movie houses, they look like real movies, esp the indi ones.
Oh, if folks want to give advice to friends, (stay away from me is the basic one) here are some things FOR OTHERS, not for us dirty dozen here, we know thus advice or some of don't care anymore.
the thing is don't take them with you, the life you save might be your friends.
I saw this because I have a (now former) NYC friend who firmly totally believes that you can't catch viruses. And the hospitals are not even 25% full. No joke she gave the links to 2 BS youtube videos of pure propaganda.
So, there might be some of your friends that don't know these basic health facts. These are what I currently (could change) think is correct.
CV is Corona Virus.
1.
Don't go on a train or a bus.
But, if you have to. Don't talk to anyone.
2.
Wear a mask. This will stop you from giving CV to people.
3.
Do not touch things.
4.
Use an Alcohol tissue on your hands.
If you do not have alcohol tissue. Wear disposable gloves.
5.
Don't touch your eyes, nose, mouth or hair.
