Ozzyman has been making some "Q" time videos. Still cusses a lot, so language warning.

The mayor of Las Vegas took a hit wanting to reopen the city, but the sentiment is reflected by a lot of Americans. Be safe, stay alive & heads up.
The Mayor of Elko wrote an open letter to the governor.

"We are developing a comprehensive plan, and buy-in from the business community to responsibly reopen in a deliberate and phased way that will safeguard public health. It is understood that we can’t go back to “business as usual,” and that some services and community recreational amenities will need to be put on-hold. We will need to continue steadfast adherence with CDC guidelines for an extended time. However, it is time to begin reopening on May 1, and we are prepared for the challenge."

If you're an inveterate snuffler
Then you must get the Copeland Cough Muffler.
When you're coughing and sneezing
You're not being pleasing.
To someone, you might be a ruffler.

A hunter was nursing a beer
And came up with a stunning idea
I won't let catarrgh
Insup'rably bar
Bagging (cough cough), ahem, yes, my deer.

This month's take from our LIMERICK LAUREATE, MARTIN EIGER:

When I sniff, when I itch, when I sneeze,
When I whiff, when I twitch, when I wheeze,
When I grunt, snort or cough,
Nearby creatures take off.
But humans nearby tend to freeze.
