It's funny, but I may not have seen Once Upon a Time in the West before. I think I was getting it confused with How the West Was Won all these years.

The local news channel may use some of my sister's photos she has taken.

She lives across the street from a protest that is happening this afternoon - accompanied of course by a counter-protest.....

DR Jane, even though we can drive to Chicago, we’re still not sure going to visit is the right thing to do.

I drove over to the bagel bakery. They were actually rather busy. Lots of people are out today.

I haven't heard anything about closing restaurants back down, but that doesn't surprise me as  getting local updates has been difficult since the lockdown started. The bagel bakery doesn't have any seating, but I drove by a restaurant that had lots of customers dining in.

People are not willing to forgive success.

Great quote from Sergio Leone on why Once Upon a Time in the West was made.

The public library in Cincinnati opened some of its locations a couple of weeks ago.  Today they announced they’re returning to curbside service only.  I think we’re going to see more and more of this...

Thank you for that. 

If you do decide to go I suggest doing so before she is old enough to cry at people wearing masks.  You can also wear a disposable gown.

Back from some travels.  Went to my local Gelson's to get a steak - line to get in a half-block long.  I'm sure it's because the morons of Sherman Oaks all wait till the last minute to get their July 4 crap.  Left immediately and went to the nearby Panda Express for food.  That was an eye opener - I got the special two plates one side thing that I always get, plus two vegetable spring rolls.  Total with tax, just under eleven bucks.  When I got home I went to DoorDash, ordered the exact same thing - total cost with tax, fees, and delivery?  Twenty-five bucks.  Never again.  Even if you remove the delivery charge it's still nineteen bucks and change.

JohnG, I agree with you on Miracle Whip, blech.  But, remember, to be a genuine 60's go-go dancer, you need white go-go boots and a mini skirt.

I also must tell you I am really over this surreal science-fiction world in which we're living, a world of no smiles, no human interaction, no hugs, no nothing.  People forget that there are actual people in the world who are not in a relationship, who don't live with anyone, and they don't give a crap about those people literally not having someone in person to interact with, no, it's always one response now - wear the effing mask.  I understand the severity as put forth by the media and "science" and such, but I am distrustful of all of it.  No, I don't think it's a left-wing plot  or a commie plot, I merely think what is factual - that the "science" that we're supposed to take as gospel changes every two days.  The dictums from mayors and governors change every two days.  One day we hear the demonstrations that are still ongoing (a large one in downtown LA today) have shown no spike in cases but every day there's a new outrageous number put forth because people aren't doing what they should - and yet, no spike from the demonstrations, the party line being they're outdoors.  Last I looked, the beach is outdoors so why do people have conniption fits when they have those photos of beaches that are not nearly as crowded as say 25,000 people packed like sardines in a half-mile of Hollywood Blvd.  Can't have it all ways from Sunday, I'm afraid.  Thank goodness Grant comes by every now and then.  Sorry for the rant, but after four damn months of this, or is it now five or six, I want information I can trust and I'm not getting it.  And the most amusing thing is that people on Facebook actually take GLEE in touting new case numbers and death tolls - a real "I told you so" GLEE.  It's nauseating.  And we can file this under "unpopular opinions."

In my self-quarantine body, that might be considered obscene.
