| Publisher Description: A written perspective of going through the Coronavirus pandemic, viewing of police injustices, brutality, protests, riots, and the Presidential election...Excerpts from the read... "It's January 26, ten in the morning. New Year's Eve I didn't do much. It was a very cold year from 2019 transition into 2020. Anyhow, I go lobster fishing out of Southern California the day before. It was a Saturday. It was fun, although I didn't catch much on that particular trip. Going into the store to buy some bait and tackle at a sporting goods store. Everything seemed normal." "Back to March: Now to something more precedent, covid-19, now 2020 narratives which is based mostly on stories of, positive test results, infection rate, and hospitalizations, versus deaths. Public interpretation of the virus is all over social media. Some people say it's fake. Many say it's real. A few say it's a conspiracy. Media says it's a deadly plague." "Racial injustice and police brutality... The news media is polluted with headlines of positive test result counts, and the democrat versus republican story. Meanwhile all hell breaks loose in the middle month of May, I believe, it was inside the city Minneapolis. Looking back on all the violence that took place in 2020, I couldn't help but think it was a DIRECT RESLUT, of the governmental mandated shutdowns of small businesses, and entertainment that caused a lot of this savagery. Had there been no pandemic, some of these people would still be alive..." "The 2020 presidential election, oh boy this was an event to remember, or perhaps not to remember, possibly two of the worst presidential candidates in US history. Mind you George W. Bush ran one year and got elected remember? I actually wrote a paper on "The Presidential Race 2000" for political science 101, junior college course." "Okay, so I'd like to change gears a little bit. I hate covid-19, I think it fucking sucks! For such a non-threatening disease (to the majority of the public who isn't obese, smokes, has diabetes, or is 65 and older) to have to go through all this." "Not trying to promote conspiracy theories, but strains that derive from a bat, or animal, they say has mutated many times to adapt to human cells. As I later find out covid-19 suspiciously doesn't mutate as much, and seems to be well adapted to human cells." "Howbeit, liberals hated Bush and they hated Donald Trump as well. I was always favored Mitt Romney, a type of guy, he's a republican, but more middle grounded. Not too far right, but could see some of the left as well." "Live in the now. It's now 5/25/2021 as we speak or as you are reading what I wrote. Chapter 1 through 3 was written at the time of the pandemic. Now days things are starting to reopen, the vaccine is out, Joe Biden is our 46th president of the United States of America" "Both I feel are subpar presidents. But then again what is a good president? A leader, smart, intelligent, good looking male who steps up on the podium and tells the American people "everything's going to be alright," like the chorus to the song "No woman no cry," by Bob Marley? The president of the United States of America is a CEO to the company of USA. He's the front man who takes the blame or credit if our country is doing bad or well." "This might be my favorite chapter, but maybe not yours as the reader. I stated earlier where I was during the covid-19 pandemic and what had happened. I didn't discuss my views on favoring the shutdowns. Now I might have misstated the facts. We weren't on lockdown. Certain businesses were closed to prevent the spread" "Since the floor is mine, I talked about Kobe Bryant earlier in this book, in case you don't know, he played basketball, for Lower Merion, Pennsylvania, high school, till the age of 17 and was drafted into the NBA league in 1996, who played point guard, shooting guard, and sometimes forward (wing) position on the Los Angeles La |
