A Bigger Risk
for men. So is war. Many have died so others might live. Nothing new here except the battle field is not limited. We can limit the risks but there are no safe spaces. Be not afraid. Be careful. Be kind. Be reasonable.
it is
now is
A Time
for old guys to take one for the team. Us old guys have the highest rate of death from coronavirus. We can stay in our room and drink beer. All the others should go back to work and let the chips fall where they may. Do it for the kids. Be not afraid. Be careful. Be kind. Be reasonable.
give it
A Rest
for a couple days. Mail and packages. Do not open right away unless it is toilet paper. Be not afraid. Be careful. Be kind.
deep breathing
A Good Thing
and now you have time to do it. Check out the benefits of deep breathing. Exercise your lungs and they will take care of you. Be not afraid. Be careful. Be kind.
nose breathe
A Closed Mouth
protects everyone. What comes out of your mouth can hurt you and others. Inhaling through your nose protects you. Exhaling though your nose protects others.
air kills
A Dry Idea
for whatever you wash. Give it plenty of time to dry. A good practice even when there is no crisis. The dishwasher is not a good dryer. Open the door and pull the rack out while it is still warm and give the dishes plenty of time to dry before putting them away.
climate change
A Crisis
requiring our immediate attention. Now we know what a crisis looks like. The cure can be worse than the disease. You hear estimates that 5 out of 8 may eventually be infected by coronavirus. Maybe they are just trying to scare us but shutting down the economy just to save 3 out of 8 doesn’t make sense. Flatten the curve? Really? Like cutting the tail off an inch at a time.
unemployment insurance
A Program
that is already in place. Why not use it to stimulate the economy? You don’t have to send money to everyone. Just increase the unemployment benefits temporarily. That’s a duh?
young voters
A Cheap Shot
that cannot be resisted. While elderly voters were seen at polling places in spite of the risks, Bernie Sanders supporters were seen partying on the beach in Florida. They still want free stuff but will settle for beer on the beach in spite of the risks.
gloves
A Good Thing
that protects you and others. Some stores give you a chance to clean your hands or gloves on the way out. Just another common sense solution to an existing short term problem. Be not afraid. Be careful. Be kind.
