President Trump has advised nursing homes to end all non-essential visits.

There‘s no other way than to stop events and protect the elderly. In my federal state, Northrhine-Westphalia, the case number has increased by the factor 10 in 10 days, from 86 to 901. If you project this curve, 50% of the population (= 8 million) would be infected on April 21. It‘s an incredible growth rate. We have to stop normal life.

The NBA has suspended the rest of the season, and some NHL teams are choosing to either play without fans, or cancel. There goes my Star Wars day at the Flyers this Saturday.

Who wants to go to a flyers game anyway? I do feel for those who work in the arena losing paydays; the athletes, who can afford some time off, continue to get paid..

A full time singer/ songwriter friend has received multiple cancellations this week.

Most of you know I'm not a pro sports fan, but this game is a Christmas present from my son, and he, and HIS son, and I went last year, too. It was a blast! Major league hockey games are like full scale rock concerts with incredible audio and light shows. For me - it's all about the boys. My grandson is a big rime Gritty fan, (Flyers mascot) and watching his excitement is super contagious. (poor choice of words, given the reason for this post?) Anyway - it's not about the game - it's about the grandson, the son, and the LIGHTSABERS!!!!!!!
Now, I'm sad again.

The NHL just "paused" its season, following the NBA. Two teams had already announced they would play without fans, though no NHL players have been diagnosed. However, sharing facilities and locker areas with NBA players influenced the decision.

"paused" "suspended" "tomaato" "tomahto" ...
same ole

Got my 4X in today, but sure in heck not buying a car. Worked out the numbers at the dealership and took a lunch break to sort it out. Got in my car and had more cancellations. Think I'm going to lose all March jobs. Talk about Debby Downer - drove home without a new car - no way.

MI State Capitol cancels all events and tours until 5/1.

I wonder if he advised all not to visit his establishments?
