Jesus. That's a hell of a story. Really sorry for you and your family, Steve. Hope it was a bit cathartic to type it all out, at least.

It was a good almost eight-month run. Thanks, Florida.

Florida had to re-assert its dominance over Ohio.

Had I known after my first bout, I would have been able use the Florida v. Ohio thread.

And, no, I'm not interested in trying to break the tie.

Just imagine the carnage if the Stand-Your-Ground types believed Covid was real.

I had Colorado Covid a few weeks back, which basically involves gummy-ing yourself into a fugue state and watching movies for a week.

The 'vid is burning its way through my wife's office, and they've gone back to masking up while inside.

I have a dinner with 2000 of my closest associates tonight. I may hold my breath the entire time.

Ah, yeah, so... My 3+ year run of not getting this thing came to an end a few weeks ago. Multiple flights (Chicago and Denver) and must've picked it up on one of those.

Felt like complete butt on Day 1 (really weak, feverish) but by Day 3 and 4, almost completely over it.
