WTF

The only thing I keep thinking of lately, in the wake of all the controversy over Corona virus, and the killing of a couple of black men by police officers, is a quote from Steve McQueen in the movie, "Sand Pebbles". Right at the end, before he is fatally shot, he says, "What the hell happened?"

That is exactly what I'm thinking. What the hell happened? I'm having surgery in a couple of days, and it is a fairly routine operation, but as with all surgeries, there is always that slim chance something will go wrong and you will die. I can't have picked a better time to have it, because if it does kill me, I may actually be thankful that I don't have to witness any more of the destruction of my country, the land of the free, the home of the brave.
