Post subject:  2/15/21, remembering last year's covid19 outbreak
Since it's been over a year since the coronavirus outbreak first reared its head in the united states, i thought we could take a moment and think back on the last year related to the outbreak. What stands out to you most about the last year, and the summer of 2020 and the effect of the outbreak on the summer, sports, and the election?

For me it was easily how difficult it was to find quality crepes around june. Why was that in short supply? Also, now that I've got 1500 rolls of toilet paper in the basement, is this now a potential fire hazard?

Things didn't really feel back to normal until the most popular sport in America kicked off in September and we could all get back to enjoying ourselves.

President Kamala Harris has done a great job stabilizing a nation coming off a devastating pandemic, recession and death of sitting president.

yeah, it's weird how that blood was all over her hands. It's almost as if she drove the knife directly into his back or something.

I always knew Joe should've picked Amy.

That walk-off homer from Eloy in Game 7 was something.

2020 was great, but can't top 2005

It was unreal, while every other team in baseball struggled with the adjustment of playing in empty stadiums, the White Sox seem to thrive in it.

it's OK because Sox fans at least got to watch their team on TV while Cub fans were still blacked out by Marquee being unavailable.

Sitting here on pitchers and catchers report day 2021, it looks like more of the same this year for the Cubs on TV.

:lol: :lol: :lol: The world will never know why he decided to wrap plastic around his head. I believe President Harris when she says that she did everything she could to remove the plastic and save his life. Tell her I said it!

I'm excited about the Dow going over 7k today and the unemployment rate dropping to 39%. It's getting better everyday! I even get to eat and shower twice a week in the government shelter now. Damn shame what they did to my dog.

the only problem was that the parade kicked off the 2nd wave of the virus in Chicago, but it was still totally worth it.

Few tears were shed when half the McCaskey family was wiped out though.

Hopefully the next generation of them doesn't suck as much.

A lot of 80 year old people were forced to leave their homes and they ultimately died because social security and medicare were wiped out. The suicide rate went through the roof and we are down to a slim 200,000,000 people in America.

Who could have predicted that every washed up piece of shit that Nagy and Pace brought in would suck? How do they still have jobs?

Made crepes Saturday and will make some today. Come on down!
