Back at work but working from home the rest of the week.  My foot needs to heal a little faster by next Monday when I fly to LA to train the HB LA office on a few software programs.

Chapter Six (243 days Until the 2020 Election)


Tom Friedman is channeling his inner Risk player, asking all candidates to team up as one grand coalition to back a moderate centrist against the left wing of the Dem party (i.e. Bernie).  I agree with that.  Pick the Dem nominee quickly so that the dust can settle and Team Purple can prepare for the battle against Team Orange. 

Meanwhile, coverage of the coronavirus is starting to escalate.  Alice and I have been following this story since mid-January when the Chinese government had to directly deal with the outbreak in Wuhan by locking down the city and much of the country.  Between mid-January and now, I've been watching lots of videos online that do an excellent job of explaining the virus, the numbers behind the virus, and why the U.S. is so profoundly unprepared in handling the pandemic.  We watched six weeks without doing anything, and now the virus will spread throughout the country without preparations to slow down the progression.  This is really going to get ugly.
