    COVID-19 Vaccine Questions

    I am with SGIP on taking matters into your own hands - I'm tired of "virtual" anything at this point including their waitlist!  I had the most luck with Walmart and Albertsons.  Their appointment sites were also easiest to navigate, find availablity, IMO. Found an appointment for early next...

    The Mad, Mad World of Niche Sports Among Ivy League?Obsessed Parents

    This quote from the article is a pretty good encapsultation of youth sports today (especially club/travel teams) IMO:  "She and her husband feel hoodwinked by the directors of her son?s club-lacrosse program, which happily stoked her fantasies while stockpiling her money: $10,000 a year for 11...

    Coronavirus Recession

    I wonder if Chuck E. Cheese makes it through.  Somehow that awful place has survived for decades but it's nicknamed "Chuck E. Sneeze" for a reason.  I am sure parents of preschoolers won't shed a tear if it doesn't.

    Costco check?

    coronavirus

    I feel like Newsom's California beach closure plan will fail spectacularly.  At the least, there will be more protests in coastal cities (without social distancing) and I expect many others to practice civil disobedience and go sit on the beach this weekend daring authorities to do something. ...
