Poor kid. Of all the places he could have done a “study abroad,” he had to end up in virus-infested Wuhan. It’s like the line in Casablanca, “Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world...”

Think of how much he could make with a book deal later on.

I don’t read books and I would buy that one.

I real life end of the world (or as close as most will ever see one) scenario being played out in front of him.

I’m sure that’s not on his mind right now.

And he has to survive to write it

Back in 1995 my niece was scheduled to start school at the University of the Caribbean campus on Montserrat, until it was destroyed by the volcano.

So all the students were instructed to report to the campus on St. Thomas.. No sooner had she gotten there and started her classes, they were hit by hurricane Marilyn........LOL!

I liked when Andy Garcia said half that line to George Clooney in Oceans 11. Nice homage to Bogey.
