One would think there would be statistics that can tell us what is happening... I trust the science, but not the political scientists.

He went to bed too late. Or too early. I can not remember which is the excuse of the week.

“In before the Vaxx Ghouls drop in.”

Somebody must have thrown a hard screen to cause the heart to stop.
