Yup all the kids in Lake Wobegone are above average.

In what? Depression?

Who said I was depressed?
I am very much at peace with my mortality.
It seems to be you guys who are scared ****less of everything.

Being at peace with mortality is a good thing because we are all a
little closer than we'd like, with far more good years behind us than
ahead. Someone once said that they were not afraid of death, it was
the dying that worried them. Dying from Covid, in an ICU, half
concious on a respirator, with tubes sticking out of your vital
orfices, seems like a particularly unpleasant exit plan. The few
people who recover seem to confirm that thought.

Unfortunately that is how most people die anyway. Pneumonia or COPD is
usually what they list as COD. The other options are not that
attractive either. "Old Age" is just a bad way to die. Get over it. I
suppose best case is a massive failure of the LAD (widow maker heart
attack) and the paramedics pronounce you at the scene.

In the mean time I am going to live every day out there, not hiding
under my bed.

Have you chosen your attire yet? I think you'd look good in a powder blue
leisure suit.

I had a tan leisure suit. I am old. My daughters saw a photo in one of
the albums, and their comment was â€œhow could you let dad, dress like that?â€

I never owned a leisure suit. Stopped wearing bell bottoms when Uncle
Sam stopped making me and I never had a mood ring. I was a golf shirt
guy if it wasn't a T shirt ("Ban Lon" in those days but I did prefer
natural fibers over the polyester a real Ban Lon was)
