L.A. Mayor Garcetti and public health officials

Is it at all possible that some local politicians and public health officials are using lockdowns and other draconian unconstitutional restrictions to cover for the fact that they are lazy and/or incapable ... and do not want to do the hard work of targeted testing, hot spot identification, effective isolation, contact tracing, virus spread analysis, medical resource allocation and effective communication?

(This is clearly the case with de Blasio in NYC.)

Growing Old

A major annoyance of growing old is the diminishment of our senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell, etc. (etc. is a big one). However, the real pain and pathos comes from our shrinking circle of friends and family. Death too often then becomes our escape from numbness and isolation.

Those Silicon Valley moguls who think that they will live hundreds of years might have second thoughts as they stumble upon these realities.
