        And now for my next trick.....

And we thought this is how was going to end.

Who would have thought a virus could change the world forever. Well actually a whole lot of Sc-Fi writers thought so and wrote great stories about it. Of course there were experts that warned us over and over again in the last 5 - 10 years that we were extremely vulnerable and ultimately destined to have a pandemic that would change the world has we know it.

Did you know that the earth has endured pandemics within recorded history? There was an outbreak in the 1950's, in 1918, in 1850, in the 1700's. hell all the way back to something called the Black Plague. What makes this Coronavirus worse than say the Rubella pandemic of the 1850's? Maybe it's the fact that 85% of those who have died from complications of COVID19 have been over the age of 70, whereas rubella didn't stick to one age group, it killed thousands of all ages.

The big difference between this pandemic and any other in history...the Internet! Think about it, in fact isn't it called "viral" when a picture, meme, video that suddenly is seen by thousands, millions of people. We have been living with thousands of ridiculous viral images for years. Everything is better on the Internet...more facts are out there, than ever before...facts right or wrong, true or false...it's acceptable to just make shit up...ask President Trump.

So what does this all mean? Where am I going with this? 

No Where

I have no better insight than the next person. What I do believe though is that we will never feel and live like we did a year ago, our lives have been changed forever...so let's face it and see if we can address some other more social needs we must face.
