It is nice to hear from you my friend.
“. If we dont laugh now and then, well despair.”
You got it.
Sit back and “enjoy” the new normal. Bah.
I’m serious about humor —
Some crack chopper pilots who had to fly in dangerous altitude up in the Afghan mountains. They had to concentrate so hard that they literally urinated on themselves as they flew: that was the policy. Oxygen shut off for everyone but them. People around them would freak out. Their flight systems also got scrambled or shut down by the altitude, and weird fog banks would appear from nowhere that weather men never studied before.
Did those guys stay serious? Nope — the worse the crisis, the more IMPORTANT humor is.
