The rest is history, unfortunately.

Be it arrogance or ignorance, our elected representatives sometimes do a terrible job of dealing with reality.

More good news!
CNN is pulling out of airports! https://nypost.com/2021/01/12/jeff-z...ites-covid-19/
Not so much about watching CNN per se, it's just the non-stop, can't find a quiet moment, endless droning on and on and on about the same 3 stories of the non-stop news cycle. TV is a dinosaur for news anyway.
Airports are hectic and stressful enough. Here's to hoping all those airports put in something a little more Zen, for everyone.
(I like nature scenes. I suspect it's going to be more like non-stop pharmaceutical adds)
