I have just been talking to my wife on Paltalk, she is in Samoa I am in Australia, she has just told me that there have been 700 people in the hospitals there over recent days and several elderly people have died from pnuemonia. They have been unable to cope, she does not want to leave the house to go to town because we have a young 2 year old son.
I have seen none of this in the media.
Two weeks ago two crusie ships visited Samoa, one had mostly Asian tourists, unsure where they were from.

I'm praying for your family. You're in my thoughts.

This SARS is really starting to creep me out. Seven hundred treated without word in the press? It's reached a Blue-Oyster-Cult-and-The-Stand level of creepy.


All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are

Come on baby... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper
We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby I'm your man...

Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity...
Romeo and Juliet

40,000 men and women everyday... Like Romeo and Juliet
40,000 men and women everyday... Redefine happiness
Another 40,000 coming everyday...We can be like they are

Come on baby... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby take my hand... Don't fear the Reaper
We'll be able to fly... Don't fear the Reaper
Baby I'm your man...

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared
Saying don't be afraid

Come on baby... And she had no fear
And she ran to him... Then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodbye
She had become like they are
She had taken his hand
She had become like they are

Come on baby...don't fear the reaper

My prayers for you and yours staying safe.

We've heard none of this in the news.
