Seems the school sponsored 21 kids from grades 4-7 to attend the Utah Jazz vs Celtics basketball game last Friday night at the Boston Garden. The kids also met the players and participated in pre-game events. Since then, one of the Jazz players was confirmed to have the coronavirus. It was confirmed yesterday. So now, all those kids who came close to the Jazz player are going into a 14 day quarantine period. The school and all the buses are going to be "deep" cleaned and sanitized. The risk of going to a place with large crowds was well known last week. The stupidity rests in the school system administration. Meanwhile, all professional basketball games nation-wide have been cancelled for the remainder of the season. Public schools in Maryland will be closed for two weeks.Our area of MA has so far escaped anybody becoming infected(that anyone knows of) but I suspect that won't last long.BTW ... I should have added the parents of the 21 kids to the stupid list.I was talking to my wife this morning and we were reminiscing of ouryounger days when I first met her family. I suppose trying to impress,I often sat with her Italian father drinking shots of Anisette. Healso put it in his coffee but had a "chaser" in a shot glass.So today, I went to a liquor store and bought a bottle of Anisette and a couple of shot glasses. I figure if I am going down, I am going to do it with a smile on my face.Oh ... the liquor store was packed with people as are all the localsupermarkets. I was about 12th in line at the liquor store and noticedthat everyone was keeping at least 6-7 feet from the person in front ofthem.We have a few cases here and people are still out and about. The roadsare still jammed. I do notice the hand sanitizer is being slatheredon. Toilet paper is leaving all the shelves here, even at Costco. Luckily my wifehas a penchant for keeping about 50 rolls on hand at all times!TP has been gone for weeks. How were we supposed to know Charmin wasthe cure for Corona?

I always thought Corona causes the runs.
