b1-66er: One of the Former Flyer's dogs has decided that right now would be the perfect time to die of cancer.

No time is the right time, but now really isn't the right time.

The freedom to self-imprision

b1-66er: "'Disney Parks faces backlash for requiring guests to wear masks: 'Masks should be optional'"

Special K: Covidiots.

You also have the option to stay at home and not wear one.

Pick your poisons

b1-66er: "Now's the time to book cheap Las Vegas travel, experts say"

There's no question I'm an expert on LV travel and I say "no way..."
No opening date set for the casinos. 
No opening date set for red rock. 
No scheduled concerts or shows of any type. 

K: Oh, I just meant it's cheap. I'm sure there's little to do.

b1: swell. 
Might as well book the Congo and Chernobyl while you're at it. 

K: Exactly. 

b1: Shrewd.

Fragments of yesterday

Special K: Followup from yesterday. "On 5/3/2020 at approximately 4:00pm, a resident in Saratoga, California was digging trenches to install a sprinkler system in his backyard and found two grenades and a mortar shell. The resident immediately called 9-1-1 to report his findings
"An Alert SCC message was sent out to nearby residents advising to shelter-in-place for their safety. The Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office Bomb Squad responded and safely detonated the grenades and mortar shell in a remote location at Congress Springs Park. Thankfully, no one was injured. Great work by everyone involved!"

b1-66er: Heavy. 
Nice sleuthing. 
Okay... WHY were they there? Was there military stuff out there?

K: They did a metal detector sweep and found nothing else. No info yet on why or who did it, but they look old.
