Dear Washington Post (Holly Bailey, author): “Frey praised the council…” Exactly how does a mayor “praise” a city council – like this is a “defining moment” – was that the praise? Or did Frey jump up and shout Hallelujah!? Seems thin for the use of that word. But, this is 2020…

Also doubling as our Covid article of the day, STRESS, is likely one of the most underrated misfortunes of the pandemic. Even when you think you “got it all under control”, stress sits in the back seat driving; know it or not.

Off The Cuff:
Word of the day, pedagogy, face it, some have it and some, not as much; teaching and learning are sharing behaviors, share on…
Oh, here’s one for sharing; keep your driver’s license, insurance cards, and registration close at hand when an officer of the law might ask… sure you can talk all sorts of rights about that, but police usually respond well to respect and knowing who you are.
