Welcome to the impending weekend.
I wanted to comfort those of you who are concerned. I am virus neutral. Nobody is giving it to me and I’m not sharing any unwanted strains of COVID.
I received an e-mail from a blog reader, concerned about my presence in Greece. And your concerns might be valid if I was there getting into mischief – but I’m not there.
One of my partners is in Greece, presenting entreaties to the Hellenic Republic. (check) John D. is in Norway, to the best of my knowledge, tending to the scourge of global cooling this winter season (check), Don D. is on the US-Mexico border holding back the great unwashed (check) and I’m keeping myself in reserve in a suite and on the beach in the tropics.
There’s the oft asked question, “Why you, LL? Why are you always thinking of others before you think of yourself, keeping the world safe for democracy?” Being this self effacing is definitely a curse.
Why in the Pacific? M is in Greece, John is in Norway, Don is in the Americas, and I’m here, waiting for a large enough crisis to rise to the level of being interesting.

Yes, I’m white as a fish’s belly, working on the burn. Feeling the Bern ;^) |
I’m not alone. Grandsons (one of them is sitting on the chair, above and to my photo left), who act as loyal and willing slaves, fetching and carrying for grandpa are also here. They do their part.
Yes, it’s true, we have the beach to ourselves as everyone else lines up at a Costco near them to stock up on water and toilet paper. Such is the world in which we live.
I had to send $$ to Canada today because there's been a run on toilet paper. I suggested they use backyard snow but didn't get a reply, curiously.
Life's a beach.
You can use sand if you're tough…You can also use snow. But whatever happens, you should avoid eating yellow snow (out there where the Huskies go).
Someone needs to take the tough assignments. Good of you to do so.
You (and Banner) are an inspiration to me. Thanks for keeping a lid on The Coven and controlling their evil aspirations.
I'll pass that on.
A tough job, but someone has to do it.
We are very appreciative of your selfless sacrifice, and feel much safer knowing you are patrolling the tropical beachhead.
Have a good time. Thank you for your service, then and now!
Enjoy the beach! I 'might' recognize that background… LOL
Sounds like a good plan, LL. You all be safe there. God bless.
That's how I look at it.
Not a single Russian landing craft will hit the beach while I am no guard!
Thank you, Brig.

Thank you, LindaG
I'm sure that the Canadian LSP's will appreciate my advice.
